  2. Open the net with the preamble (first paragraph at this page)
  3. Establish relay stations, if needed
  4. Make brief announcements
  5. Call for short-timer check-ins (those who can stay only a few minutes)
  6. Roll call of regular check-ins (by member number & call sign)
  7. Announce rotation sequence of check-ins
  8. Moderate the rotation
  9. Call for late check-ins & visitors
