You can find yours truly, Daryl Stout, WX4QZ, on this net today. A
list of all the nets that I can be found on during the week is at the
hyperlink on my QRZ bio -- look for the link that notes "Nets Where
WX4QZ is Net Control".
Nets on The QuadNet Array utilize the modes of D-Star, DMR+, WIRES-X,
and Fusion, together on one site. Go to openquad.net for more details,
and connection options. Note that the QuadNet Array no longer offers connections via Echolink, or Brandmeister via DMR.
Nets on The Sunflower Network utilize the modes of AllStar, D-Star,
DMR, Echolink, Fusion, HamShack Hotline, M17, P25, and TGIF. For more
details and connection options, go to www.sunflowernet.us
Nets on the Kansas Wide Fusion Net utilitze the modes of D-Star, DMR, Echollink, Fusion, P25, and WIRES-X. For more details and connection
options, go to
https://www.kansascityroom-wide.com
Times are noted in local US time, and in UTC (when the US is on Standard Time). Take note of the following caveats in regards to net times:
1) In the US, Standard Time is from the first Sunday in November, to the
2nd Sunday in March...with Daylight Savings Time the rest of the year.
2) UTC Time (noted when the US is on Standard Time) is ONE HOUR EARLIER
when the US is on Daylight Savings Time, as noted above.
3) Arizona, Hawaii, and the US territories are on Standard Time year
round. In this case, during Daylight Savings Time, their net times are
ONE HOUR EARLIER.
4) Confirm the net times with Net Control if you have questions.

Comments: You do not have to be a member of the QCWA to check into the
net. However, if you were first licensed as an amateur radio operator,
anytime in the year 1998 (as of 2023) or earlier, and are currently
licensed, you can join the organization. Go to www.qcwa.org for more
details. The main requirement to checkin is being a licensed amateur
radio operator, with privileges to transmit on the modes offered by
the QuadNet Array.
On checkins, please advise if you are "Short Time", or want to be just
"Listen Only". If either is the case, once ackowledged, you can secure
your station at your leisure, and go on your way.
Methods to checkin are as follows:
1) On the QuadNet Array, via D-Star, DMR+, TGIF, WIRES-X, or Fusion.
Go to openquad.net for connection options.
2) Via the IM Utility with Netlogger (netlogger.org).
3) Via the QCWA Facebook Page.
