Just a comment on 20m prop from Alaska at 1800utc on Sunday.

Haven't been checking a lot lately as net time propagation on 20m is 
not too good during the dark months.  Sunrise currently is an hour 
after the start of the net which is 9:00am local.  I only get 5.5 
hours of daylight during the bottom of winter which appears to have 
propagation "sleeping at night".  In summer we can try QRP check-in 
but not likely to make it this time of year (have K3/10 and KX3).

Not sure if I could hear net control but did check in with a relay 
(probably from John-N6JW who is one of the strongest stations on the 
net for me).  W9/W8 probably comes in later in the day.  W6/W5/W7 are 
heard more often.  East Coast is  MIA.  WWVH on 15-MHz is strong.

I am running my K3 into CCI 120w linear to Hygain Th3mk4 triband yagi 
at 50-foot.
Anyway just a general comment; no suggestions to change 
anything.  Thank's for the relay.

Still thinking about selling my CCI AN762 and my Mirage A1015G to 
upgrade to a KXPA100.
