The Hortonville Who Knows What Net
Amateur Radio, Electronics, 3D Printing and More...
This independent collaborative community-run net is the best net in the region for amateur radio discussion, learning, spreading awareness of area events & clubs, sharing advice, answering questions, and announcing your buy/sell/trade deals.
The WKW Net hosts presentations on both beginner and advanced ham radio topics, like tips for learning Morse Code, building & choosing antennas for POTA, understanding baluns & ununs, or an introduction to GMRS for hams. We do trivia nights too!
Many hams are also builders and experimenters, so we often have discussions about all things DIY. Anything that fits a "maker space" discussion is fair game.
Some weeks are simply freewheeling roundtable discussions about what everyone's been working on or looking into recently. Share what you've been working on, ask questions, or just listen and learn!
Ham-related Q&A is encouraged and new hams are always welcome.
If you're a new ham and never checked into a repeater net before, this is a great place to start... Make your first contact with us!
Thursdays @ 8:00 PM on the
Hortonville UHF repeater:
443.950 MHz (+5), 77 Hz tone
