Good Evening,
    The weather has been quite mild this week.  Some sun, a lot of rain, 
fair temperatures, and today - a little snow. In Oregon, "if you don't 
like the weather wait fifteen minutes", is commonly true. Only this 
morning I had large fluffly flakes falling madly for ten minutes only to 
have the sun come out and see it melt in just moments.  No matter what 
you may think it does not rain all the time here in the Pacific 
Northwest -- sometimes it snows.

    Propagation has been bumpy and intermittent. Band hopping was in 
order to keep a sked going.  I may need to forge new territory (for me) 
and try 30 meters.  Never can tell but it seems about the right 
'trajectory' for the distance.  I'll design and build a non-resonant 
trebuchet to launch my RF. Just add a few more rocks to the weighted end 
and fling an E/M field that much further.

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
