Well keep in mind that the repeater has a much better range than your handheld. So even though you can receive, there's no guarantee of transmit even with a good battery. With that said batteries have definitely gotten me before as well!
Great net tonight! Thanks everyone for sharing their stories of international travel. Net control wasn't nearly as scary as I thought it would be. ;-)
Michael if we meet in person, we must hear more of this hole.. :yikes:
Oh and I hope Mark is healing fast!
Decided to start a new thread:

If you can make it please post up. If there is a Mod around can you lock this one?
Sorry for starting a new thread. I figured I'd take the initiative here to help Mark while he's out since I found a good IRLP node that I can use. I didn't see anyone else sign up for net control, so I'll give it a try. If I'm mistaken PLEASE let me know. I don't want to step on any toes...
I've found a pretty good stable IRLP node and spoken with the node owner. So I should be there. I'm fine with an informal net, but if we need a net control op I could give it a shot as long as everyone is patient with me. Sharing Mexico expo stories sounds like a good topic. =)
Fast recovery...
Thanks Mark for putting together another great net. Thanks Chris for joining and sharing your knowledge with us. We really appreciate you joining and the magazine.
Mark here's wishing you a speedy recovery!!
