Yes it was. It was on Sunday afternoons, maybe 2 or 3 Eastern. My Denver buddy WD0HHU (Dave Cowdin) called it in `89-`90, he also did a local 2m net every week on 7.225. I moved away in `90.
Then it was a guy in St.Louis (on 20m) ... (I'll remember his call as soon as someone says it) /;^)
Was on 14.280. Don't remember the day and time.

Seems that there used to be a weekly AMSAT net on 20m, or am I just showing my age... I haven't kept up unfortunately.
40m is probably good for evening/nite-time chat... Sounds like fun. /;^)
