Good Evening,
     Another week of almost continuous rainfall has passed. Hopefully we 
are getting enough moisture to offset the very dry winter.  One more 
month of rain and then we transition to the dry season.  Maybe this year 
will be warmer than last year.  It was a struggle to grow vegetables 
last year.  The drumming grouse are telling me it is spring.  Unlike 
those from the Midwest these do not sound like John Deere tractors 
starting up.  Probably because there are so few tractors in the area :)

     Propagation has been good though a CME may be on the way toward 
Earth.  Actually it is on its way I just don't know if it will hit or 
not.  Spring thunderstorms are causing some QRN but nothing like what it 
will be in a few months.  Winter weather has taken its toll on my 
antenna.  The connections between the feedline and the doublet need 
attention but the support line has become part of the fir tree.  I'll 
need to find the climbing spikes and take the small chain saw up with 
me.  At that time I'll put up a few pulleys to make my life easier.

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
