Morning Net
This social net opens on the Mid_island Radio system, consisting of VE7RBB at the Errongton FH, VE7KU on Mt. Cokely and VE7RWC on Mt. Ozard at 08:45am local time and runs Sunday through Friday. Each day a new Net Controller takes the helm providing a forum for Amateur Radio Operators to gather and have a conversation lasting as long as the controller wants. You don’t need to be a member of MIRA to participate, visitors are very welcome.
This net follows a somewhat structured format, each daily net control operator is given some latitude as to the operation of the net but the emphasis is on in-formal and having fun!
If you’re interested in being a net controller on a regular or on a standby basis, get in touch with Dave (VE7DTE) the club’s president and Weekday Net coordinator through this email president@midislandamateurradioassociation.ca
Here’s a list of the current net controllers:
| Monday | Al (VA7MP) |
| Tuesday | Don (VE7AX) |
| Wednesday | Don (VE7ATJ) |
| Thursday | Paul (VE7QBE) |
| Friday | Peter(VA7PWT) |
| Sunday | Dave (VE7TE) |
