Good Morning,
    Propagation is slightly better than last week.  The SFU is above 90 
with scattered sunspots.  I was able to manage a few short 15-20 minute 
contacts this week.  Just enough time to exchange weather reports and a 
few activities but not long enough for a real contact.  The sun is 
moving rapidly southward hinting of fall.

    Three other signs are also showing the change of season.  First the 
hummingbirds have departed for the coast.  One week I was feeding them 
the next they left their feeder half full.  Secondly the foxgloves have 
reached their last few blossoms of the year. This is my notice to start 
collecting wood in earnest.  Thirdly the elk have started to scrape the 
trees to free their new antlers of velvet.  I heard a bull the other day 
"whistling" for about ten minutes as he made his way through the new 
growth alder.  Not yet a bugle but soon they'll be raising a racket.

Please join us on:

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

    73,
       Kevin.  KD5ONS
