[Elecraft] Elecraft SSB Net results (2-20-11)

[Phillip Shepard]

The net got off to a slow start due to the terrible QRM from 14.313 and the
refuse taking over that frequency today.  Rather than fight it, we moved to
14.316 MHz and were much better off.  We'll see how the situation is next
week and see if we need to move again.  Propagation was OK, and we had three
DX check-ins (DK1, EI6 and ZL1).  We were also bothered a bit by pulsed QRM
of some kind but worked through it. We had 30 participants over a 34 minute
period, with six K2s.  The discussions were on the KPA500 - Brendan, EI6IZ,
is field testing the amp and shared his feedback with us.  Here is the list
of participants.
