This net was started on April 3, 2020 by Johnny Renfro (N5XQK) and the RCWA officers. It was originally planned as a health and welfare check And also as a way to break the boredom during the restrictions of the Covid pandemic. It has evolved into a great daily net that many folks look forward to each day.

18:21 N5KBD-PETE: There's a easy cheap hack for that - at least on Ford's. A piece of a typical wire tie will hold the "OFF" button down forever, LOL
18:22 N5KBD-PETE: Just wedge it between the button and console. Use a black wire tie and you won't even see it, LOL. "I read that on the internet" <
