WSSBN Preamble

Posted on by

Good evening and welcome all Amateurs and Short-Wave Listeners everywhere!

This is (YOUR CALLSIGN) and my name is (YOUR NAME) located in (CITY & STATE) and I will be your control station for this evening’s session of the Wolverine Single Side-Band Net.  You don’t have to be a member to check into this net.  Everyone with a General or higher Amateur-Radio License is welcome to participate in our net.

This net meets every night of the week on this frequency 3.935 at this time 2200 UTC and pre-net starts at 2115 UTC.

The purpose of this net is to promote good fellowship among radio operators.

If you would like become a member of the Wolverine Single Side-Band Net, the requirements are 4 check-ins a month for 3 consecutive months.  After meeting these requirements, please e-mail or send your list to K8TAS – Tas who is good on QRZ.com.  You must have the check-in date and the net control call sign.  Make sure it is the net control station and not the pre-net list taker because sometimes they are different.  We suggest that you send more than the required check-ins just in case of any discrepancies.  We have a nice certificate and iron on patch for new members.  Information about the net and the monthly awards are available on our website at www.wssbn.com.

I currently have on the pre-net list the following stations by suffix…
Did I miss anyone on the pre-net list ONLY?

  • Are there any mobiles? (Any more mobiles to check in?)
  • Are there any announcements? (Are there any more announcements for the net?)
  • Are there any short time? (Does anyone else need short time?)

I will take any general check-ins at this time, please give your call slowly & phonetically, please call (YOUR CALLSIGN)

I will take additional check-ins every 15 minutes, please wait till then to check-in.  It makes the net go much smoother.  We will now go to our comments for the fun section of our net.

(go back to the top of the list)

AFTER THE NET:

I would like to thank everyone who checked into the net tonight.

This is (YOUR CALLSIGN) your net control from (CITY & STATE) now closing this evening’s edition of the Wonderful Wolverine Single Side-Band Net.  Good Night and 73 to all.

****Don’t forget YOU are in charge of the net and if anyone gives their call sign while someone is giving comments either ignore or tell them after the person spoke when you will be taking more check-ins.
