[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[kevinr]

Good Evening,
     I am happy tonight sitting by my warm fire reading as the snow 
level mounts.  Winter finally arrived and decided to drop about two feet 
of snow on me.  Luckily there was some warning so I am ready for a few 
days without access to the outside world and possibly a power outage.  
Five days of firewood are stacked inside and I have plenty of water 
ready too.  The battery bank is charged so there is no problem with 
comms.  There is enough power in those Trojan T-105s to last well beyond 
even longer periods without electricity.

    Propagation has been great this last week.  Some flutter but signals 
are good.  I have been busy reading spec sheets so have not spent much 
time with my rigs.  My electronics bench got cleaned all the way down to 
its surface and the instruments were restacked to allow more space there 
as well.  It is amazing how easy it is to find things when your desk is 
clear :)  Even SMT is not so bad because I have large sheets of 
sketching paper taped onto the desk to protect it from soldering.  Great 
for taking notes and finding that errant SMT capacitor.

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)

          Kevin.  KD5ONS
