The Swedish Meatball Net has been a forum for a growing number of Swedish speaking amateur radio operators living outside Sweden. Most are emigrants, and for many of us it offers the only chance to conversations in Swedish. It is an informal organization without bylaws and directors. The goal for the Meatball Net is to gather as many of us as possible on the same time and frequency, so that we can "swap lies," using the "Language of Heroes and Honor!" (A contradiction there?) Well, we are supposed to have fun, and the popularity of the original net on Sundays, has led to an expansion to Saturdays, when the "Fermented Herring Net" convenes. In addition, there are other local nets on weekdays, also named after legendary Swedish dishes, such as the "Stuffed Cabbage Net." Weekday evenings, you may hear Swedish HAMS tipping cocktails around 14.319 MHz.

We will not accept, nor tolerate any form of attack, insinuation or disrespectful comment of any kind toward personal background or beliefs. In the future, we will increase our sensitivity to such behavior and act resolutely to stop any tendencies of such acts.

14.319 MHz

2) Always the same local time in the U.S.A. Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Dayligh Savings Time(except AZ and some county in Indiana). To avoid confusion and constant editorial activity, Universal Time is out. I'm tired of the bi-annual influx of e-mails regarding this. Get over it!
