Good Evening,
    I have been out moving wood uphill and have found it is truly not 
the heat but the humidity.  For the last month the dewpoint and the 
temperature have been either the same or quite close. This means the fog 
gets dense and the humidity approaches 100%. Even at 40 degrees moving 
wood uphill creates heat which does not dissipate well in the moist 
air.  Any dry wood I have under cover equilibrates to a new moisture 
level.  It is best to bring the wood in days before it is burned.

    Propagation has been up and down all week.  One day a great S5 
signal.  The next day there is no one to be heard.  The sun has been 
active but I cannot account for the differences in propagation from day 
to day.  We are getting more sun each day, here in the Northern 
Hemisphere, but one would think that variation would be a steady, 
seasonal change instead of on again off again signals.

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
