TRAFFIC REPORT FOR EAST AND WEST MASS APR 2014

Sorry for the late posting.  Vacations, while  relaxing, can be stressful trying to play catch-up.  Thanks to all for your support of the nets, to the net managers, net controls, and those who bring and take traffic. Thanks especially to Mark AC7RB, a relative newcomer to the nets, who has been originating traffic (and receiving responses in return).  I would like to encourage more folks to originate messages to be brought to the nets, messages to friends, families, ham radio contacts, members of an organization to which you belong, etc.  This is what will help keep nets alive and folks trained in message handling. How about originating one message per week, or at least one per month.  If all traffic handlers in the country did so think how much fun message handling could be.  73, Marcia KW1U

TRAFFIC REPORT FOR EAST AND WEST MASS MAR 2014

Thanks to all the traffic handlers for your support of the nets.  I was invited to attend the New Hampshire ARES Academy in March and was pleased to see the interest in message handling and in NTS and NTSD in particular.  It was pointed out that the primary function of Amateur Radio was the handling of messages. Handling record traffic with it’s accountability is an especially important skill.  Being able to run an efficient net is another important skill.  Both are practiced regularly by you folks who support the nets.  Keep up the good work, and encourage others to learn and practice these skills.

73, Marcia KW1U

JANUARY, 2014 TRAFFIC REPORT

The January traffic report can be found by scrolling down this page.  Great job all.  We even have a report for the Cape and Islands (CITN) and New England Phone Net (NEPN).  Thanks Mike.  More folks are reporting Station Activity Reports (SAR) and PSHR (Public Service Honor Roll).  Anyone who handles traffic can send an SAR to your STM.  To be included in the PSHR report however you must earn a minimum of 70 points.  See the left side column on this page for information on SAR and PSHR.

We appreciate all your support on the nets.  A couple nets however can use some extra support.  The Mass Rhode Island Phone (MARIPN) meets on 3918 Khz at 5:30 PM Monday through Friday.  Some new callsigns are being seen there.  Keep up the good work.  Maybe we will be able to return to 7 days a week so that the working folks can make the 5:30 time slot.  Also Heavy Hitters (HHTN) has a few regulars but we would like to see more of you night owls checking into this net at 10:00PM on the MMRA linked repeaters (see mmra.org for details).

If anyone would like help with message handling or net procedures, please contact KW1U@arrl.net or one of the net managers listed below.  Hope everyone is surviving this arctic winter.  Remember spring is just around the corner and it will be time again for antenna work.

73, Marcia KW1U

TRAFFIC REPORT FOR EAST AND WEST MASS NOV 2013

Here are the stats for November.  I’m happy to report that thanks to members of the Boston Amateur Radio Club the 145.23 repeater is back near coverage of pre-antenna damage days.  Many thanks to those guys who braved the heights and weather to raise the new antenna.  We are now able to move the EM2MN solely to the Boston repeater and it has made a noticeable difference in net participation.  It is good to see some of the old regulars returning.

I’m also happy to report that Bob Holland N1SYC has agreed to assume managership of EM2MN effective December 1 2013.  We thank John Campbell KB1ENV for his service to the net, and hope in time he will find some time to join us again.  We thank Bob, and I’m sure you will give him your support.

Packet traffic is moving again.  We had some problems with nodes making it difficult to pass traffic between KW1U and N1XTB-4, but many thanks to Jim W1JT who has made his node accessible for our use.  Anyone interested in NTSDigital can get in touch with me (KW1U) for information.

The CW net (MARI) has been doing well.  I’m considering increasing from 5 to 7 nights a week.  Hopefully this will allow some others to participate.  We have outlets on this net for Central and Western Mass as well as East Mass, so do come join us.  For information or help with CW let me know.

Happy Holidays to all!  from Marcia KW1U

TRAFFIC REPORT FOR EAST AND WEST MASS MARCH 2013

Greetings folks.  Hope everyone is enjoying spring weather and getting those antenna projects done.  Here it is May and I realized I didn’t get the March report posted here.  As you may know I am Section Traffic Manager for both East and West Mass.  I decided to combine the reports for both sections and have a link for the West Mass folks to this page.

Participants of the East Mass Two Meter Net should be aware there have been problems with the Boston 145.230 repeater.  Club president NV1W has informed me they believe it is an antenna problem, but have been unable to get someone to the top of the Federal Reserve Building to make repairs.  Folks especially from the south of Boston have been unable to access the repeater.  Some even in the vicinity of Boston have encountered problems.  This station has a 13 element beam up 50 feet situated around 20 miles from Boston and have problems being heard.  We used to be able to use the Waltham repeater as a back up but apparently since that repeater was moved it does not have the coverage it used to have.  The Sharon repeater (146.865 PL 103.5) has good coverage, but not all are able to access that.  There has been a net session running on the Sharon repeater, and at times there are sessions running concurrently on both repeaters.  This causes some confusion, but I hope everyone will bear with us until the Boston repeater is back to it’s normal excellent coverage.

A reminder to all with HF capability, there are two section nets operating Monday through Friday: The Mass Rhode Island Phone Net on 3918 Khz at 5:30 PM, and the Mass Rhode Island CW Net (slow speed) at 7:00 PM on 3565 Khz.  These nets provide liaison to the Region Nets and we could use more help on both these nets.  See Jim N1LKJ for information on the phone net, and Marcia KW1U for information on the CW net.

If any are not submitting Station Activity Reports (SAR) or Public Service Honor Roll reports (PSHR) note information on this website.  We encourage more to report.  The PSHR requires a minimun of 70 points to be listed.  The SAR has no minimun.  Reports are sent to KW1U on the nets, on the N1XTB-4 BBS or via email at kw1u@arrl.net.

Thanks to all for your participation.  Tell another ham how much you enjoy the nets.  Let’s see if we can encourage more to participate.

73, Marcia KW1U

SECTION TRAFFIC REPORT FOR EAST MASS FEBRURY 2013

February gave us some interesting (well I was trying to be nice about it) weather.  It also gave us some interesting statistics.  The new CW net reported 20 sessions (it meets Monday through Friday), and yet EM2MN which meets daily reported only 12 sessions.  I think some of the problem may be related to reports not turned in.  This is something we can improve upon.  Perhaps a bigger problem has been the reduced power of the Boston repeater.  Folks from further away have been unable to access the repeater.  Byron K1YCQ has been running a net on the Sharon repeater and we thank Byron for that.  However not everyone can access that repeater, including our net manager KB1ENV.  Often two nets were running concurrently which has led to some confusion.  Hopefully the Boston repeater will be back up to its former robust self in the near future and we can get back to normal. Meanwhile if you can’t find activity on Boston, check 146.865.

Also noted in the stats for February are reduced net sessions for both MARIPN (3918 Khz at 5:30) and HHTN (MMRA linked repeaters at 10:00 M-W-F).  Unfortunately Jim N1LKJ, manager of MARIPN was battling respiratory problems much of the month and we missed him dearly.  Jim is feeling better now and we sure are glad to have him back.

Just a point of information:  if there is no NCS by three minutes past net time, ANYONE can assume net control.  You don’t have to be appointed, you don’t have to be experienced.  We’re all friends here.  No one can be criticized for trying, and there will no doubt be help from the peanut gallery.  Let’s try to get 100% nets run and reported.

I would also like to thank all those who turned in SAR (Station Activity Reports) and PSHR (Public Service Honor Roll) reports.  Information on these can be found on this website, and anyone is welcome and encouaged to submit either or both to me.  There are no minimums for SAR although 500 or more points will earn a BPL or Brass Pounders League award.  The PSHR however requires a minimum of 70 points to be listed, and these calls will be found in a subsequent issue of QST.

Thanks to all you fine folks for your participation in the nets.  It keeps us in practice and helps keep the nets alive.  How about originating some traffic to friends or family or other hams you have worked on the air.  Most will get a kick out of it and you will become an ace traffic handler in the process.  See you on the nets.

73, Marcia
