Good afternoon guys.
Tried getting into net this morning but with the keyer running in back 
ground I had the wrong radio the SP-600 does not do well with that. Thru 
my call in after Bob but never heard Mike for a few after that. finally 
just gave up. I think the RR guys may have changed something because I 
was still hearing weak signals at 7:45.
Cleaned up W9GSS this morning fixed a few mouse problems. Haven't looked 
at it in 18 months. It was a bad winter in the old transmitter building. 
We are the only hot spot in the building. And the county is going to 
sell the sight at auction this summer. I have thought about bidding a 
few bucks but need to see what taxes would be. It is an old core of 
engineers building with 120 ft tower. we are using a free antenna at 110 
ft. Been there 10-15 years I am sure aprs will miss it. We cover the 
peoria side of the river valley.
Well mom is moving into a private room and I need to take a shower. so 
will talk later.
Jim
