[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report

[kevinr]

Good Evening,

    Yes, the bands were more quiet and in both of the ways I had 
suspected they would be.  QSB was mild but present with an S2 variance 
at the greatest.  Twenty meters was more quiet so I was able to reach 
past the Mississippi and Tennessee Rivers.  However, spanning the Red 
River of the North seems problematic.  The signal from K4JPN was the 
weakest yet least noise covered of them all. Only a few words got 
jumbled due to QSB but the rest was plain as day at S1 or less.  It may 
be the 'Elecraft Effect' but maybe not; that is still in the hands of 
the research analysts.  All I can describe is what I see right in front 
of me.
