Activating the #HBCU #encomm net for a drill on 20m. Hundreds of #colleges and #universities on the air in the #US, throughout the #Caribbean and #africa, and the #diaspora. <Sike> an #OMIK #aprilfools dream. May it be so. Ashe. #blackmaston #blacksinstem #hamradio #AmateurRadio
Okay. It was fun listening to the #omik #cw net on 40m last night. I always wondered how a #cw net works! My copying was a little rusty at 12 wpm. It’s been a minute.🙄🤣
@kb6nu I just learned about Qtel, the #echolink client for #linux from someone in the #OMIK net moments ago.

Qtel (Echolink Client) on Raspberry Pi OS & AntiX Linux - Tom Costello - KD9CPB

Get on Echolink repeaters easily with Qtel running on your Raspberry Pi Linux computer, simple instructions for all Ham Radio Operators

@KF0UNK @kb6nu @n8gnj @vk2tty @9v1rt Recommend reading the paper but my take away was that radio was a #greenbook on the air for #black travelers BITD and they created their own on air culture that survives today on #omik nets and zoom meetings.
Lurking as the #OMIK net on 20m close down. Great operators https://www.omikradio.org/ #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

So I reached out to fellow members of #OMIK about @howardu #AmateurRadio Society and I learned that the club was active from 1953-1970 with the callsign W3RID. there’s even an article about the college club in the school 📰 I wonder if @arrl has any record of the club. I’d love to work with students, professors and other alumni to reactivate HARS!
@kc2ihx @Righttobeorg I like the way that the @PrideRadioGroup and #OMIK are leveraging #voip platforms because it is hard to get away with being a #bigot and anonymous—like you can on #phone on #HF .
