Hi Darkehammer, I've not had any succes on 27.275, but have joined in with the North East Mid Week Net on a Wednesday evening a couple of times now. They seem to be a good bunch and worth a go. Very welcoming to a newby like myself too.

Hi Razz, Sorry, I should have said. The Mid Week Net across Yorkshire and the Northeast is every Wednesday from 1930 - 2100hrs on 27.375 USB. I hope to speak to you next Weds.

I see from your profile that your QTH is Kent. It might be a stretch to get on the net, but you never know, the gods of skip might be favourable tonight!

Andy, the nets chair makes a point of ensuring that there will always be a net of some description at those times on a Wednesday. Even if Christmas falls on a Wednesday!
