his call will be SK5EU. He is using the club station at the University of Linkoping. If we don't get through on 15M we will try on 28.47OMHz. at 1530 GMT. I expect Paul to be around for the sked too. The times are probably a little early for you guys on the West coast.

1. GLAD YOU GOT REPEATER CODE OK. SEEMED TO GO ON SYSTEM EASILY. MIGHT NEED REMOVAL OF ANY GARBAGE CHARACTERS PICKED UP. NOTICE THESE SOMETIMES AS SYNTAX ERROR ON LINE THAT LOOKS SUPER. I REEDIT THE OFFENSIVE LINE AND IT WORKS OK.

2. THE NJ GANG IS CERTAINLY THINKING. I HOPE THEY ARE WILLING TO ADHERE TO SOME STANDARD (NBS INTERNET GOOD) ON THE BACKBONE NET. THEY ARE REALLY INTO THIS GROUP CALLUP STUFF. I ASKED STEVE, IF I AM CONNECTED WITH PAUL, YOU WANT TO BREAK INTO MY CONNECTION WITH YOUR QRR TRAFFIC? HIS BOTTOM LINE WAS YES, IT IS MUCH MORE IMPORTANT THAN WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING WITH PAUL. AS LONG AS THEY KEEP IT LOCAL.
