[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[Kevin]

Good Evening,
    It has been almost a week since it last rained.  I have seen the sun 
for at least a few hours each day.  Maybe, just maybe, the dry season 
has arrived.  I won't hold my breath though.  There are some mosquitoes 
now but they are in no way as large as those I once met in Arkadelphia.  
They could syphon your blood in seconds flat.  These would require many 
hours to do the same.

    The sun is quite spotted and due for some flare activity. Hopefully 
conditions will be better than they were last weekend. While I gathered 
the information of over 500 stations I was only able to get 120 of them 
to reply.  Oh well, it was fun.  Now is the season to pull down last 
year's antennas and build new ones. Hook up the guy lines to the F-250, 
put it into 4WD low and try not to get a branch through the cab.  After 
only a month the lines heal into the bark of the tree necessitating the 
aforementioned procedure.

Please join us tomorrow.

14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday (3 PM PDT Sunday)
  7045 kHz at 0100z Monday (6 PM PDT Sunday)

     73,
         Kevin. KD5ONS
