[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[Kevin Rock]

Good Evening,
   The snow has almost gone away.  The rains are helping the last few inches melt today.  This may mean it will get warmer.  I hope so it has been a long winter and I am ready for a change.  I did have a chance to try the bands this week.  Twenty, forty, and eighty meters worked, more or less.  There was a high noise floor which I think was caused by the solar ejection.  One contact on eighty was nice; I worked an op in Sacremento.  On twenty I was just able to hear a contact in Alabama but not well enough for a chat.  On forty I had a long chat with someone I met after an extended CQ.  
   As you will notice there is a change in net time.  The second net will go back to where it was last year.  Now that the sun has come back further north I can give myself a break.  I was delaying dinner by having the nets so close together.  This was not a good thing but it was necessary during the winter months.  Now I can eat at my regular time and feel better for the second net.  Last week I had a splitting headache by the time I was done.  Much of it was caused by low blood sugar.  Snacks just don't seem to relieve the problem.  Now that the sun sets later I can move the net back to where it was.  Now to go fix the website ;)  There, done!
