[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[Kevin Rock]

Good Evening,
    I keep hearing about warm weather and sunny skies but it is so rare  
here I can count the days over 70 degrees on the fingers on one hand with  
some left over.  Most days this week I have had to start a fire to stay  
warm.  Today it got all the way up to 56 degrees.  Luckily the nightly  
lows are getting warmer too.  Last night it was only 50 degrees instead of  
in the mid 40s.  It has been raining for the better part of the last three  
days.  I wish the dry season would get here and summer would start.

    However, not all is gloomy and cold.  The propagation has become  
incrementally better.  Enough so I could have a few longer skeds on 20  
meters.  The wish is for continued improvement.  Maybe the sun will break  
with predictions and become more active.  It would be best if the solar  
wind would kick into high gear and create numerous auroral displays.  It  
is easier to deal with auroral flutter than it is to listen to a sparsely  
populated band.

    If anyone is interested in acting as a relay station on either net  
please email me.  I will turn the net over to you for a few minutes so you  
can call areas in my skip zone.  It sure would prove helpful to those I  
cannot reach directly.

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 2200z (Sunday 3 PM PDT) 14050 kHz
Monday 0000z (Sunday 5 PM PDT)  7045 kHz

    Stay well,
       Kevin.  KD5ONS
