Good Evening,

     Both bands were quiet and weak.  Forty meters had deep QSB on 
everyone.  Reports of S4 to S9 happened.  I gave one of S1 to S8. Good 
thing the bands were quiet because the QSB made life interesting.  Forty 
meters was even more fun.  I don't think I had the chance to call CQ 
before I had worked everyone.  As you'll see in the report forty meters 
was reaching out both east and south but I got one person just over the 
mountain from me.

    A birthday, church work, antenna tuning, fog, trips, and football 
were a few topics.  For some reason Dave was on a 160 meter antenna when 
we were on 20 meters.  It worked well but seemed an unobvious choice.  
Ken mentioned cold but thought it worse to his east.

    Only 15 days left in 2018, this year flew by.  But I've been very 
busy and enjoyed it a great deal.  Wayne asked me about running the nets 
for so many years and I told him it was habit. It is more than that 
though.  It has made my Sundays a lot more fun for many years.  I've met 
a great number of fine folks from all over.  I don't think I could stop 
running them.  So, yes, they are a habit, but a good one :)

    Until next week,

       73,

          Kevin.  KD5ONS
