[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report

[Dave Sublette]

Hi Kevin,

There is a good reason I was on the 160M vertical on 20.  It was the
antenna I could hear you best on.  :-)  Right now, my rotating tower with
the 40M Moxons is pointed at 164 and I won't turn it because I have a
trolley cable attached at 125 feet, getting ready to install a four element
OWA yagi.  The weather has to cooperate.  On 40, I was using the Moxons,
even though they were 180 degrees from you. 18 dB down is still a good
signal  :-)

Always good to hear you..  I will try to make it as often as possible.  But
I will be traveling for the next two Sundays and won't be on the net.

73,

Dave, K4TO
