call-in nets on 147.300(+)162.2PL

1) Welcome to the West Valley Amateur Radio Club's morning (or evening) call-in net.  This is [YOUR NAME, YOUR CALL] and I will be your Net Control.

2) This is an open, directed, net and all licensed amateur operators are welcome.

3) Our club's NY7S repeater, is located on top of Del Webb Hospital in Sun City West, Arizona and operates on a frequency of 147.300 MegaHertz, which requires a standard positive 600 KiloHertz offset, and a 162.2 Hertz tone.

4) We will break at any time for emergency or time critical traffic.  Our normal format is to ask for "Short-Timers", "Mobiles" and "Echolinks", and finally any other general check-ins.

5) We ask that you allow the repeater to drop completely and wait 2 seconds to allow Echolink users to check-in.

• As the Net Control, you will announce your trivia or discussion topic and begin taking check-ins, making sure to keep them in order individually and with short-timers, mobiles and Echolinks before the general check-ins.  (If you take up to 5 at a time, it is easier to keep track of everyone.)
• Don't forget to identify yourself every 10 minutes with your CALL and the NY7S morning/evening call-in net, inviting hams to log-in.
• Announce QST's and ask for any further QST's.
• If you are NEW, then say you are new to being a Net Control.  Ask people to slow down and spell out their call sign phonetically so that you are able to write it down.
• Following the History Lesson by Ed, WA6PNJ, and the Trivia answer or ending your discussion, be sure to close out the net, turning the frequency back over to normal operating airwaves, and thank everyone for their participation.

Note:  This is a suggested format, and is not written in stone.  "We sure appreciate you taking the Net!"~ quote by Ed,WA6PNJ.
