Good Evening,
     During one of the very hot days this week I took time to hike down 
to the lower parts of my property.  While sitting on one of the fallen 
trees I heard a bird approaching; a large bird.  At first glance I 
thought it was a small crow but then he looked at me and resolved into a 
pileated woodpecker.  It was so still it was easy to hear him flying.  I 
guess he was curious about me because he kept to nearby trees for the 
next fifteen minutes before I got too hot and hiked back home.

    Propagation has been in the doldrums lately but the sun looks like 
it is heating up again.  There may be an X-class flare on the way but if 
it doesn't happen quickly it won't hit earth.  Though even with a miss 
we'll get a lot of ions to pump up propagation again.  Hopefully it will 
last a week or two.

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
