SBE "HF" HAMnet and Internet Repeater Linking Project, SBE's Chapter 73, "Chapter of the Air"

HAMnet, SBE’s “Chapter of the Air,” was developed more than 20 years ago for those HAM operator-members who are not in close proximity to a local SBE chapter. It gives members a monthly chance to get caught up on up-to-date SBE information and discuss technical broadcast topics.

The "HF" HAMnet "Chapter of the Air" takes place on the second Sunday of every month at 0000 GMT. Hal Hostetler, WA7BGX, serves as Net Control. The published frequency is 14.205 MHz. Occasionally, that frequency is busy and you may need to move up (no more than 10 kHz) to find the SBE meeting.

In addition to the "Chapter of the Air", the SBE IRLP HAMnet is available. Based in Denver using the WA2YZT UHF/VHF repeater system and the IRLP “Internet Repeater Linking Project” node #9615, the IRLP HAMnet is held on the first and third Saturdays of each month at 11:00 am, U.S. Mountain Time, 1pm Eastern.  It is also streamed online at http://denver-sbe-net.ham-radio-op.net  for those who are interested but may not have an Amateur Radio license.
