The multi-mode digital network known as the QuadNet Array doesn't just unite fans of D-STAR, DMR and C4FM Fusion. Starting next month, a new mode will be added to the mix once a week: Pun Mode. Pun Mode is neither digital nor analogue and it's not the exclusive practice of ham radio operators.

Hams who have a reputation for groan-inducing wordplay now have a refuge in which to practise their craft. The Pun in Life Net is starting up on the QuadNet array beginning on Saturday the 2nd March 2024 at 4 p.m. Eastern Time, 1 p.m. Pacific Time. The net control and punster-in-chief is Daryl Stout, N5VLZ, a past participant in the World Championship Pun-Off held every May at the O. Henry Museum in Austin Texas.

Humour must conform to on-the-air standards of decency -- and because this is a digital mode, the only QRM you are likely to hear are the loud groans from everyone else.

Daryl is hoping for a big enough crowd to make this a pun-in-a-million experience.
