New to the nightly SPARC Net question – “The rest of the Story”

By Ed NZ1Q on 10/30/2018

Every night SPARC holds a 2m traffic net on the SPARC 2m repeater.  We have also had a question each night, which those who have checked-in can take a shot at the multiple choice answer.  We answer the question just for fun, we don’t keep score.

Please join us each night at 6:30.  Now you can enjoy more detail, i.e. “The rest of the Story.”

Thanks to Billy, KN4LUZ who has just started up a web page where he is posting more detail behind the trivia Q&A.  He often has commentary, links and/or video clips.  It’s always fun to learn more about the trivia subject, so join us on the net and checkout Billy’s web site at:  https://billl.net/
