"When a station passes traffic to you try and remember everything they say accurately."--

________________________________________________________________
I can't argue that- on the other hand- just relax and enjoy the conversation- accuracy isn't all that its made out to be......
Of course on a radio net, you must remember you callsign (!) so pay attention so when you are called you will respond in a timely manner- but....
.....personally I treat these things like a big Party.... You know, those social gathering where you can be in a group of people, talk the evening away, and never use anyone's name... or remember anyone's name afterwards... The next gathering with them gets easier, ....and before you know it, you are friends on a first name basis...

Don't sweat it Zapp. Take some notes if they help, relax and keep in mind that its also a social hobby- that all the other stations have their own little melodramas playing in their heads too... so have fun.... and maybe a beer ...
