[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[Kevin Rock]

Good Evening,
   It was a sunny but cold day today.  Nice to sit by the fire and work at the bench in the afternoon light.  Now that I have repaired a few computers I can have work stations in many rooms of the house.  Since they are all networked it is simple to keep working in a new chair, with different light, and different heat conditions.  Living with wood heating means there are times when it is colder and other times when it is warmer.  All one needs to do is move to where the temperature is pleasant.  
   Twenty meters was changeable this week.  Early on it was not simple to communicate but on Friday all that changed.  It was great yesterday.  QRN way down, QSB almost non-existent, and signal strength was good.  Hopefully tomorrow's net will have many of these properties.  Seasonal changes are already noticeable.  The sun is rising earlier each day and the rate of change is increasing.  I thought I saw a hummingbird yesterday but it may have been a play of light because I never saw it again and it is about a month too early for them.  By the end of February the insects will start to hatch so they will have something to eat to tide them over until the flowers begin their progression of blossoming.  

Please join us tomorrow evening.
