[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report for March 15, 2004

[Kevin Rock]

The East Coast was favored this evening.  Not until Ric checked in did I 
hear a strong signal.  There was lots of competition for my ears out hear 
though.  When I started there were no others near 7044 kHz.  But given a 
few minutes they were right on top of my frequency.  I could not tune them 
in clearly though so I don't know what was going on.  I am sorry if I 
missed anyone but it was tough hearing my own sidetone over these guys.  I 
also was plagued by them trying to take over the frequency as I read off 
the roll.  But 40 meters is like that.

The list for ECN/2 runs as follows:

N7GS - Mal - MT - K2 - 2256
WA7BOC - Roger - WA - K2 - 755
KL7V/5 - Sam - OK - K2 - 3158
W4PJX - Ken - FL - ? - ?
N2YC - John - NY - KX1 - 336
VE3XL - Ric - ON - K1 - 968  Strongest signal of the evening
AA3WF - Mychael - PA - K2 - 1025   QNI #31
NN1F - Aron - NH - K2 - 1555 - running 4 watts.  Wow!!
N2EAB - Michael - NY - ? - ?
K6SE - Earl - CA - K2 - 2622

I am sorry I could not get all of the information but I am hoping to do 
better next weekend.  We'll try to find a relay further away than 
Mychael.  He could hear well out here but some of you folks are just too 
close to his location for him to help me hear you.  Ric, maybe I should 
have asked you to call the net but I was pretty harried by the time you 
showed up to think to straight.  Still learning is all I can say for 
myself :)

Thanks for your participation.
