[Elecraft] Elecraft Net Report for July 17 & 18th, 2005

[Kevin Rock]

Good Evening,
     Twenty meters, as usual, was quieter than forty.  Folks to the East of 
me complained a little of QSB while I had QSB on the folks West of me.  
But, all in all, the signals were quite good.  Only N8XE popped up, got 
recognized, and was gone once again.
     On forty meters matters were much different.  I heard all manner of Q 
codes thrown at me.  Not one of them was good though :(  But I did manage 
to work HI then FL back to back.  Then up to NC (I think).  Either that or 
K2HYD was vacationing in NY.  But normally he goes down to NC.  I may, or 
may not, have heard a /4 attached to his call but copy was quite 
difficult.  I think I left one person calling but I could not make out a 
letter above the noise.  Some of the others were pop up contacts where I 
heard them above the noise for a few moments and then they were back under 
it again.

On to the lists.

If I missed you I am sorry.  Mr. Hammond is off in Hawaii so he will be 
ready for some radio activity by the time next week's net rolls around I 
am sure.  His assistance would have gleaned a few more from the aether.  
If there are any errors please send them to me and I will fix them both 
here and in the database.

Thank you,
      Kevin.  KD5ONS (Net Control Operator 5th Class)
