[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[Kevin Rock]

Merry Christmas,
    Propagation was good yesterday.  If any of you have time tomorrow and 
would like to get on the air for a little while you are welcome to try the 
Elecraft CW Net.  I expect the turnout to be light since many folks are 
visiting or being visited.  All the wrapping paper will be scattered and 
torn and the new kits being busily built in anticipation of first 
contacts.  If you are especially quick you may be able to get one of those 
KX1s or AT3s on the air in less than a day but I do not believe a K1 or K2 
could be assembled that quickly.
    Hopefully the propagation will be good for us.  Since the weather is 
turning blustery it may be nice to stay inside and work a few contacts.  
If you lose me in the middle of the net it is simply the fir tree shedding 
their snow load and pulling down my antenna.  I may be able to switch to 
another antenna but the snow is supposed to be heavy by tomorrow morning.  
Right now it is raining but the freezing level is dropping to under 1000 
feet soon.  With any luck at all I will be on the air until 8 PM tomorrow 
evening.
    If there are any of you in Delaware, Vermont, or South Dakota I would 
appreciate your participation so ECN may gain the WAS award.  Please be 
ready to exchange information with the NCS.  There may also be folks 
interested in working others to earn Elecraft WAS or Elecraft Century 
Awards.

   Hope to see you tomorrow evening,
          Kevin.  KD5ONS
