\"Denver<\/a>
YL Family Net
Fridays 7:30 p.m.
145.340<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Note: The YL Family Net is moving from Saturday mornings to Friday evenings at 7:30 p.m., effective immediately. \u00a0End your work-week with a nice, relaxing family activity. Gather the family around and join in – third party check-ins are welcomed and encouraged.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a while since a\u00a0YL Net was heard on Denver area repeaters, so we were pleased when member Trish, K9FOG<\/span>, approached us about reconstituting the Net. With a twist.<\/p>\n

Trish feels that a net encouraging the \u201cYoung Ladies\u201d (YLs) of the hobby to actively participate in the repeater community is important. \u201cA lot of women are licensed, but you don\u2019t hear many of them on the repeaters. I would like a net that will encourage women of all ages to participate in the hobby.\u201d<\/p>\n

As a busy mom who works outside the home full-time, Trish felt strongly enough about getting other women on the air that she was willing to head up the effort.<\/p>\n

YL with a twist<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Trish\u2019s vision of a net went beyond the YL segment of the community to encompass the entire family: children, teens, and yes, men as well.\u00a0She wants to make it a place of meaningful discussion with and for the entire family.<\/p>\n

\u201cMore than just a YL Net, I\u2019d like to see this as a family-oriented net.\u00a0 A place where our ladies can join in and share with each other as well as the whole amateur radio family.\u00a0And yes, men are welcome!\u201d<\/p>\n

Trish is busy planning topics for discussion, with a few light subjects thrown in. Expect to hear about everything from how not to get taken advantage of when you take your vehicle in for servicing or repairs to activities that you can do with your kids\/grand kids for some meaningful together time.\u00a0 She revealed several other topics to us but you will have to tune in to find out what they are.<\/p>\n

A YL role model<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Trish is a great example to her teen daughter, Cheyenne, KD0EXI<\/span>, and son Austin, KD0GPE<\/span>, on two counts.\u00a0 First, if you really want something, work to make it happen and; second, she is helping to create a welcoming and relaxed net that her daughter and son can participate in along with their peers and families. \u00a0We expect that the YL <\/strong>Family<\/strong> Net<\/strong> will be a very popular place to gather.<\/p>\n

Come and meet the YL who is making it all happen and join us every Friday evening at 7:30 p.m. on the 145.340, beginning on May 6th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n
