[Elecraft] Elecraft SSB Net results, September 8

N7SP etal:

If I may make a suggestion that might make KX3 checkin easier.  On 
other nets that I often check into, the first stations invited to 
checkin are portable, mobile, and low power stations.  That gives 
those stations a better chance of avoiding being covered up by 
stronger stations.  Not sure if this could be incorporated to the 
Elecraft-SSB net protocol?

I have checked in with my KX3 sn475 several times and usually I wait 
till the near the end of the net when the "dust settles" a bit.  I do 
have the advantage of a yagi at 50-feet.  I also checked in with my 
K3/10 sn4340 barefoot many times before I had an amplifier (I have 
both 120w and 250w amps).

I will try checking in this Sunday with 250w.  Past couple weeks prop 
has not been nice.

How can we as a group increase the results of the Sunday SSB net for 
those of us who have KX3s running barefoot? Only 2 of the 34 checkins 
on Sunday were KX3s.

Frustrated and disappointed ? but I keep trying ?

Dave, K6WDE located KH7 temporarily ?
KX3, serial number 4599
