Good Evening,
    It has been sunny this week and today the temperature rose to 57 
degrees.  There is still some snow left but you have to look for it.  
With the temperature inversion I am warmer than the valley folk.  My 
chimney sends its smoke upward a few feet and then it all flows 
downhill.  While it is very clear up here there is a layer of smoke at 
about 800 feet.
     Conditions on forty meters were not very good this week.  Lots of 
QSB from what may be the aurora.  In any case the sun is doing something 
which is unsettling the ionosphere.  I have been cutting down a few 
alder during this nice weather.  With more room up above I'll be able to 
raise my antenna ten more feet.  Thinning is good for the forest crop 
and gives more room for unobstructed antennas.

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 0200z (Sunday 6 PM PST)  7045 kHz

        Stay warm,
           Kevin.  KD5ONS
