[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report

[Kevin Rock]

Good Evening,
    Conditions were interesting.  Reports of very rapid QSB with quite a 
bit of QRN from some thunderstorms in the distance.  There was a 
persistent tuner who could not get his SWR quite right ;)  However, there 
were a number of folks out and about this evening.  Two new folks dropped 
by and a bunch of old hands.  W0NTA is reaping what he sewed at his 
mountain estate.  Aluminum seems to have sprouted in Colorado.  W0CZ was 
living the hard life camping at the lake on a sunny, mild day in the wilds 
of ND.


On to the list:
N0SS - Tom - MO - K2 - 008
K2HYD - Ray - VA - KX1 - 608
W0CZ - Ken - ND - K2 - 1031    QNI #85 from Lake Ashtabula
N9IV - Russ - IN - KX1 - 742  I am guessing which rig.  Your signal was 
very weak to me.
VE1RGB - Gary - NS - K2 - 2519
ND0V - Greg - CO - KX1 - 1162
KI8JM - Bob - OH - K2 - 3630   QNI #15
N5EBD - Ken - TX - K1 - 2424   Welcome to ECN!
W0NTA - Dick - CO - Non Elecraft rig tonight.
W6SJ - Randy - CA - K2 - ??    Welcome to ECN!  Sorry I did not get your 
serial number
AB9V - Mike - IN - K2 - 3993


As always any errors will be posted and fixed in the database.  Thank you 
all for braving the conditions.  Batten down your hatches and head for 
high ground if you are on the Gulf Coast.  The rest of you east of the 
Rockies get ready for some heavy weather next week.  I expect QRN to be 
very high tomorrow morning when I attempt a sked.

Our wood pile is gradually growing but, as you most probably heard, it is 
taking its toll on my arms.  Last night they were shaking so much it was 
tough to type.  Today, after a bit more exercise, they are strained but 
started to recover.  Hopefully by the time the shed is filled with six 
cords of wood I'll be in much better condition :)  Who needs a health club 
membership when you have a woodstove for heating?  It is very nice when 
there are four feet of snow blocking the roads and we must stay home!

See you all next week for another round of the Elecraft CW Net.  Until 
then stay well and work a little CW.
    73,
       Kevin.  KD5ONS  (Net Control Operator 5th Class)
