[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[Kevin Rock]

Good Evening,
    There were three sunny days this week.  Yippee!  Temperature spiked at  
65 degree yesterday, the warmest it has been since last year.  It was nice  
to be able to open the windows and let the air flow through.  Looks like  
more sunny days will be coming next week so maybe the wet season is due to  
end soon.  Now that I know where the leaks are I can fix them around my  
skylight.  Seems water can flow uphill because these leaks are nowhere  
near any seam in the roofing.

    Propagation was good the few days I was on the air.  Unfortunately I  
grew ill during the latter part of the week and was not able to get on  
again.  Even though CW allows one to work with a very sore throat I  
thought it better that I slept instead of getting up early for my skeds.   
I think I have shortened my cold by a few days by doing so.  Hopefully  
tomorrow my ears will not be plugged up so I can hear better.  I know  
yesterday's streaming feed from Dayton was tough to hear.  But I was able  
to get most of what Wayne had to say about his new rig.  Looks like a fun  
gadget.  I would like to see the innards though.  Seems the K3 got shrunk  
into a TFR for those of us who like to work from the boonies.

    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
