| Welcome To The Flamingo Net! The Flamingo Net is a south Florida amateur radio club. We have been active since 1954 as a social group for Hams. Most of our activity takes place on the ten meter band, but we also use two meters. We meet on the air each Friday night, starting on 29.044 MHz at 7:30 PM Eastern time. At 7:45, we move to the Broward repeater, 146.910. At 7:55 we go south to the KD4WET repeater, 146.865 MHz. At 8:00, we return to ten meters on 28.444 MHz. We welcome check-ins! Our activities include hosting Free Fleas (jointly with the UMARC) on the third Saturdays in April and November. These are held in the Physics parking lot of the University of Miami Coral Gables campus. We also hold BBQ's, picnics and dinners at various times throughout the year. We also hold lost transmitter (FOX) hunts (on both ten meters and two meters). |

| Updates This site was constructed on April 18, 2003. I will try to keep it updated as to recent or upcoming activity. The FlamingoNet will hold a minimum time type of 2m Fox Hunt on Sunday May 25, 2008. The fox, N4YES (Danny) announces that the starting point is the N. parking lot of Oak Grove Park - gathering time 9:30 AM. More info can be found on the What's New Page. Hunting tips can be found on the About Page. These hunts, like most of our events, are open to EVERYONE (not just Flamingo Net members), so come to the hunt and find out how much FUN they are!! We are planning a Flamingo Field Day Event for Saturday, June 21, 2008. Activity on both 2m and 10m is planned. More details as they become available. We intend to participate in the Fall version of the Hamboree, the Ham Octoberfest on October 25, 2008 at the Mahi Shrine building on North River Drive between NW 12th and 17th Ave. (Miami Civic Center area). Our next Flamingo Net / UMARC Free Flea will take place on Saturday morning, November 15, 2008 in the Physics Parking Lot at the U. of Miami Coral Gables Campus. Look forward to seeing you there! A Picnic/BBQ will follow the Free Flea at noon on Saturday November 15, 2008. It will be held in Brewer Park, just west of the U. M. campus. For location and driving information to any of our events, see the "What's new" page. |
