I had two online Int’l Telecommunication Union discussions/meetings this week. The 1st one had 160+ participants and the 2nd one had 170+ participants. They both worked well. Interventions were handled well as Zoom has some great tools to handle the group meetings. The only bad part was the meetings started at 5 am Pacific time! My wife was kind enough to keep me supplied with hot tea. 73, Rod Amateur Radio W6ROD ARRL Int’l Affairs Vice President

 Several of the local clubs here have used our NW Division Zoom account, and so far the reviews have been great. I was on one last night with 25 Willamette Valley DX Club members, and I'll tell you: I haven't had so much fun in a long time. Having 25 people on the screen at one time was fun to watch, and the interaction between the members was almost better than a live meeting.

I'm booking clubs up with meeting dates almost every day, and they certainly appreciate it.

73 and stay safe!

Hello Rod,      At the 'Lab,  Zoom is the preferred platform - I just signed off from myDepartment meeting with 29 members of the Department... works fine across all platforms and is easily scalable and the lower limit of 100 hasnever been an issue with our "Pro" account, you  can add more with acredit card <grin>.                                               73, Kermit W9XA On Friday, March 27, 2020, 11:47:16 AM CDT, Rod Stafford <w6rod@comcast.net> wrote: I had two online Int’l Telecommunication Union discussions/meetings this week.  The 1st one had 160+ participants and the 2nd one had 170+ participants.  They both worked well.  Interventions were handled well as Zoom has some great tools to handle the group meetings.
