Monday PMR Net

[Razz229]

Hello and good day to you

Welcome to another episode of "Ray Reviews" the Monday Night, Channel 14, South Coast PMR Net, held on the 01/06/2026

My location for the net was Radio Corner, Ashdown 🌴 Forest in the county of East Sussex, were the weather was cool, breezy with drizzle in the air.

The net is held on PMR analogue channel 14 with the radio set on NFM. The net doesn't use any of the privacy, DCS, CTCSS tones that are available on the radio. This makes the net open to all, regardless of experience, knowledge or radio used.

My set up for the evening, was the CRT Space U powered by a car battery 🔋 and the "Dean" made Di-pole on a fibreglass pole.

The net is scheduled to start at 20:30 🕣 UK time (19:30 UTC) and finishes anytime from 23:00 🕙 UK time (22:00 UTC)
