Just exactly how paranoid are You?

Keep this thought in mind – it is called television programming for a reason – It is not a conspiracy if they tell you what their doing as they do it . . .

The talking heads on your television have been lying to you non-stop for how long?? They are like a man that tells you ” I love to lie – I lie continuously – I live to lie – and I am lying NOW ” When do you believe him ? or disbelieve him ? And what do you base that belief or disbelief on ?? If everything you have been programmed with has been a lie – where does that put you ?? While most folks are beginning to realize that things being told them as “news” and “facts” may not be quite “right” – they need to realize it has not just been for the past 3 1/2 years – let’s try 50 + years just using television as the stepping stone into your head – prior to that – radio – religion – pick your poison – anyway enjoy 1 1/2 hours of fun . . .

Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!

IS THE FREQUENCY IN USE?
IS THE FREQUENCY IN USE? Good [time of day], this is the COVID Watch net. This is an open net and ALL appropriately-licensed amateur radio operators are welcome to participate. This is a directed net and your net control this evening is [CALLSIGN], my name is [NAME], and I am located in [State]. When checking in please use standard PHONETICS for your callsign and provide your State or locality. At this time do we have any stations with EMERGENCY or PRIORITY traffic, come now with your callsign.

[pause]

This net is conducted in furtherance of Title 47 Part 97.1 of Federal Telecomm Regulations. The purpose of the net is to collect and disseminate information on YOUR current local conditions relative to the health hazard known as COVID-19, or “Corona Virus.” When reporting information from your area please do NOT use personal names. Any accurate information on supply chain shortages, quarantines, and number of new hospital cases is desired.

[pause]

Because this is a new net, a permanent net frequency and time has not yet been established. As such this net will meet weekly on various anticipated clear frequencies on either the 75m, 40m or 20m bands. At times we may be found a bit up or down of our anticipated operating frequency depending on band usage.

Checkins will be taken by the area number in the station callsign. If you do not hear your callsign after a Net Control readback and traffic session please attempt your checkin again.

There are a few general items that will help the net flow better so please comply with the following:

– When passing traffic ONLY provide known accurate information from your area

– If you are just checking in to listen, indicate “No Traffic” after your call

– Stations running low power should let Net Control know so they can be contacted expeditiously

– This is a voice net and as such, ‘Q’ signals should not be needed.

With that, this is [CALLSIGN], Net Control for the COVID Watch Net, and I’ll now take general check-ins, using standard phonetics please.

[Call for and log checkins using callsign number either singly or in groups]

–Any station with a 1 or 2 or 3 in the callsign come now.

Are there any more stations with a 1 or 2 or 3 in their callsign?

–Now taking stations with a 4 or 5 callsign, come now.

Are there any more stations with a 4 or 5 callsign?

–Now taking stations with a 6 or 7 callsign. Come now.

Are there any more stations with a 6 or 7 callsign?

–Now taking stations with an 8 or 9 or 0 in the callsign. Come now.

Are there any more stations with an 8 or 9 or 0 callsign?

–Are there any relays?

Do I have any stations willing to make relay calls for the net?
[If no volunteers then ask the Strong Signals]

[AFTER having a couple of relay stations make some calls for you to see if there are any others to vacuum up, you can close the net.]

One final call for any late checkins before I close the net. Any station anywhere?

Hearing none, that concludes this session of the COVID Watch Net. I’d like to thank all who checked-in, as well as my relays [name them by call if you want].

This is [CALLSIGN] and the COVID Watch Net is clear.
