      It'll be a cold day in you-know-where when I ever use
a non-Ham-Radio means to check into a Ham Net!!

Why do you have check-ins?
Is there some kind of participation credit?

I personally suggested carrier pigeons for check-in at the 2013 Symposium.
It is certainly a unique net with all the various methods of check-in
available.

In trying to keep up with technology, the Houston AMSAT Net will now
take check ins by Tweeting using the hash tag #houamsatnet      0200 UTC
during the winters on Wednesdays (8PM Central Time)
Be one of the first on your block to check in electronically. Of course,
you
can still use one of these:
IRC, APRS, EchoLink, Telephone, E-mail or voice on the repeater directly.
I would use Facebook but I have a thing against giving out all that
information publicly. My Facebook account has been active for a long, long
time and I have no friends. Not a one. In fact, once every year or two I
check to see if it is still there.  I think I have broken the Facebook
record for the longest running account without a friend. Too easy for bad
things to happen with Facebook.
