I'm totally behind this.  I know one or two others have offered to act as
control, which would be great.  I'd love for this happen, and to be an
opportunity for our group to show others the awesomeness of talking *over
radio waves*!

Yeah, it's lost some of its magic.  I blame the kids and their Wi-Fi.

That said, I still think it's pretty cool, and suspect a lot of people would
be keen on doing the hamcram after sitting in on a net or two.

It would be nice to have the control move around, so us newbies get some
experience acting as control.  I'd like to go third or fourth, so I've got a
chance to hear how it's done.

We also need a friendly repeater, if anyone has ins.  There were a few
mentioned on the last thread, but I don't know any of the operators there.
