[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[kevinr]

Good Evening,
    After a week of 70 degree, sunny weather it was hard to go back to 
40, with rain and gloom.  But there was an hour of sun today so it got 
dried out enough for a hike.  The paths I thought would be more 
overgrown were as used as when I had been hiking them regularly.  Lots 
of elks sign along the way.  One day I am going to come face to snout 
with one of them.

    The very active sunspot is going around the limb of the sun. But not 
before charging up the ionosphere for a while.  Each day this week 
thirty meters got a little bit stronger.  If the trend keeps up the 
contesters on this weekend should be doing well.  As I listened on 
twenty meters I heard folks from all over.  I've had the radio on much 
of the day and heard areas come and go.

    But, because of that contest, twenty meters will be too busy to run 
the net there tomorrow.  So I'll cancel the first net but keep the forty 
meter net active.  Maybe with the recharged ionosphere I'll be able to 
work east of the Rockies again.

    Please join us tomorrow evening.

1) Hail signs  (first letter or two of the suffix of your call)
2) NCS help  (as well as QSP/QNP <relay> help)

Monday 0100z (Sunday 6 PM PDT)  7045 kHz

        Stay warm,
           Kevin.  KD5ONS
