Good Evening,
    I hope you are all having a good holiday weekend.  I am going to get 
some much needed rest when I send this note off ;)  Some of you may be 
away from your home stations but have taken along the camping rig just for 
fun.  It will be interesting to hear where you are camping and what kind 
of antenna you are using.
    We are having standard Oregon weather: wet, foggy, and cold.  I just 
can't seem to keep the chill out of the house.  However, I did wait too 
long to get the fire going so it takes a long time to heat up all the air 
away from the fireplace.  Sam is happy in his box right next to the 
stove.  He made sure to tell me to get the fire going right after he told 
me to feed him dinner!  Cats will be obeyed or else they make quite a 
fuss.  It is simpler just to give him what he wants ;)
    I've been reading notes about how 6 or 10 meters is open.  Maybe this 
will translate into good conditions for the two nets tomorrow.  I know 
there is a DX contest going on so we may have to work around them.  
Hopefully they will be able to hear us because they tend to use maximum 
power to get through.  We shall see.

     Please join us:
Sunday 2300z (Sunday 4pm PDT) 14050 kHz
Monday 0200z (Sunday 7pm PDT)  7045 kHz

    Until tomorrow,
           Kevin.  KD5ONS
