Opening the ubuntu-hams net
*
This is (name), (call sign), and I’m your net controller for the Ubuntu Hams net. This net begins every week at this time. This net is open to all whether or not you are a user of Ubuntu Linux.
If you would like to learn more about Linux or Open Source Amateur Radio Software, you are invited to visit the ubuntu hams team web page. Simply search for ubuntu hams on the web. That's Uniform Bravo Uniform November Tango Uniform; hams.
The purposes of this net is to provide a meeting place on the air for amateur radio operators using Linux in the ham shack, and to discuss open source software applications for amateur radio.
This is a directed net. Stations are not to break the net by calling other stations directly, and should coordinate contacts with the Net Control Station.
After check-ins are complete, I will call the roll and ask for comments, announcements, or requests for contact with other stations on the net.
At my discretion, the net may be concerted to a round-robin net after initial checkins and comments.
Any station wishing to check-in to the net, please come now with your call sign, name, and location.
Record the list of participants
Remember to ask for additional check-ins after the initial call up
* Are there any further check-ins for the ubuntu-hams net?
Proceed down the list of net check-ins asking for comments
* N1nnn, this is K1nn, Do you have any comments, announcements, or requests for contact?
After completing the list, ask for late checkins
* At this time I will take any late checkins for the Ubuntu hams net. Any station wishing to check-in to the net, please call now with your call sign, name, and location.
Ask the new stations whether they have any comments, questions, or requests for contact
