David,

DW>How come I never see anything new here? Everybody sleeping?

  Been busy with nets in the evenings...mainly with D-Star and D-Rats. In
fact, I ran into a ham radio operator on D-Rats the other night who thought
that "D-Rats was dead". I told him "It's alive and
well".

  On the Southeast US D-Star Weather Net this past Sunday, there were 59
checkins, and 21 of those were from D-Rats. On the Northwest Georgia ARES
D-Rats Net Tuesday night, they had 26 checkins.

  I set up a page of Echolink Nets (www.wx1der.com/elk.htm), and have
prepared a file of selected D-Star Nets (email me at my callsign at gmail
dot com; or connect to WX1DER if you see me on D-Rats, and download
Selected D-Star Nets.PDF from my files area.

  I started the D-Star Nets list, because apparently several nets at
dstarinfo.com (maintained by Ed, WA4YIH) have out of date information;
likely because those who originally submitted the data have NOT provided
him with updates.

  As for the Echolink Nets list, The Millenium Net (formerly the Six Meter
Millenium Net) gave me the idea to do that back in March, 2006.

  But, I'm considering setting up a file for D-Rats nets, or for nets that
allow D-Rats checkins. However, I'm checking with the D-Rats Yahoo Group,
to be sure that such a file doesn't already exist.

Daryl, WX1DER
