[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net

Sat Aug 2 22:32:01 2003

Gang,

I tried for a half hour on 20 Meters and 20 minutes on 40 Meters and never
heard a peep from a K2.  There were lots of quite strong signals, almost all
in the NA test.  But there were also several regular QSO's.  I could hear
W6's, VE3's, W2's, W4's, W7's and one KL7 in Oklahoma who was announcing
that KD5ONS had closed the net (on 20 Meters).  That was about 7:30 when I
heard the KL7.

Guess I got skunked this go at it.  What QRG were you on, both bands,
please?

There's another day...

Bill
NA7Y
