[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[Kevin]

Good Evening,
    It is time to fall back to standard time.  Thus the zulu time changes  
while the local time remains the same.  I checked twice but still may have  
made a mistake.  So please remember the local time you normally use to  
check in and you (and I) will be fine.
    Logging operations have been unceasing.  Even today there was some  
activity and I expect they'll be driving by tomorrow starting at their  
normal 3 AM wake up the world commencement.  Most of the drivers have been  
quite good about not injecting their 200 decibel wake up calls.  The first  
time it happens each morning I think it is an earthquake but after I  
release my claws from the drywall in the ceiling I realize it is only my  
friendly log truck drivers insisting it is morning.  Luckily they do quit  
around 4 PM so I can take an hour nap before I make dinner.  I think there  
may be only another two or three weeks before I can get a decent night's  
sleep again.
    Propagation has been good and should get even better as spot number  
1121 crosses the sun.  It has been shooting out M class flares which are  
ionozing the Heaviside layer.  In a few days those blasts will be pointed  
directly at us insuring we get saturated with solar particles.  A day or  
so after the initial blast our propagation should be very good.  It is fun  
to play on ten meters as it opens more frequently.

Please join us tomorrow afternoon and evening.

1) Hail signs  (first letter or two of the suffix of your call)
2) NCS help  (as well as QSP/QNP <relay> help)

Sunday 2300z (Sunday 3 PM PST) 14050 kHz
Monday 0100z (Sunday 5 PM PST)  7045 kHz

     Stay well,
        Kevin.  KD5ONS
