[Elecraft] Elecraft Net Report for 40 meters June 28, 2004

[Kevin Rock]

This evenings ECN netted another two operators:

VE3XL - Ric - ON - K1 - 968
and
AA3WF - Mychael - PA - K2 - 1025

It was good to hear from both of them.  I hadn't heard Mychael in quite 
some time and it was very nice.  Ric's K1 is doing well as always.  He was 
recovering from a fun FD.  I hope you all got to use your Elecraft rigs 
for FD this year.  I know mine did a very fine job for me on 10, 15, 20, 
40 and I am sure it would have worked on 80 meters if I would have stayed 
up late enough :)  I attacked FD with less vigour than some but had a good 
time.  I set a goal and doubled it.  Maybe next year Ms Patricia and I 
will staff a couple of rigs and work FD on the top of our mountain.  She 
may just find time in her busy schedule to get her General license and 
work a little CW.  If not she can always work SSB or AM.  Nothing wrong 
with that.

Please support the Elecraft CW Net in your part of the world.  There is 
one springing up around the North Sea and another in Southwest Asia.  If 
you want to start one in Australia, South America or in Africa be my 
guest.  If you want to ask questions or get some history either write me 
( kevinr at cs.unm.edu ) or view http://ecn.visionseer.com/ for some 
information.  Some day we just may circle the globe with our nets.

If I missed you this evening I am sorry.  The band was a bit noisy but 
fairly good.  But I am pretty sure a number of you are putting your 
stations back together and getting some much needed rest after Field Day.  
I hope you all met or exceeded your goals.  Most of all I hope you had fun 
and ate some good green chilies :)
