MNWis has changed its name to FusionTech. Nothing else changes. The name was changed to better reflect the nature of the organization from Minnesota and Wisconsin midwest centric to global covering interests in technology and Fusion in particular.
The network is still reachable at Room and YSF 21493. The Fusion Technical Net is the same and the people running it are the same.
The FusionTech network is part of the Bakken Amateur Radio Society (BARS). BARS was formed as a club of amateurs who worked at Medtronic. Since that time the relationship with Medtronic employees has become less connected and subsequently most members are not from Medtronic.
The founders of FusionTech are: Chuck, K0ORK; Pete, AD0MI; and Chris, K9EQ. The net started in 2014 and is the 2nd oldest net to be held using Fusion. (Milwaukee has the honor of being number one.)
