[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[Kevin Rock]

Good Evening,
   Currently it is cold (26 degrees F) out and snowing.  There is going to be three to four inches of new snow by morning but the storm will keep going on into Monday at least.  Winter still has its hold up here.  However propagation seems to be getting better.  Each morning it is easier to hear during my daily sked and the fox hunters are writing about good evening conditions too.  There was a real sunspot this week even if it was one of the old season.  A solar stream is on its way due midweek so the ionosphere will get fed.  
   From the fox hunt reports of forty meters along with notes I have been receiving I am reinstating the forty meter net for us to test tomorrow.  I moved the times back to where they have been in previous years.  Hopefully conditions will be good enough to make cross continental contacts once again.  Forty meters allows me more local contacts as well as areas I just cannot seem to reach on twenty meters.  This will be a test but I expect it to work and will keep trying over the coming weeks.  If necessary we can tweak the schedule somewhat but it is nice to have time to make and eat dinner between the two nets.  

Please join us tomorrow evening.
