Good Evening,

    Santa will have to search for snow in most parts of the country.  I 
could get some by Wednesday but it won't last long. Even Ken in Fargo, 
ND reports mild winter winter weather.  Steve, in Georgia, is having 
weather much like mine: mild, gray, and very wet.  The river in the sky 
is coming from near Hawaii.  Once the weather starts coming from the 
Gulf of Alaska I'll need a lot more wood in the house.

    Propagation was pretty good.  Some band noise and a variety of QSB.  
I switched between antennas for the best signal.  Almost everyone had 
some indoor project in the works.  I bought some restaurant quality pots 
and pans a few months ago so I am learning how to cook with them.  It is 
a very different experience.

   A few electronic projects were reported too as were a few antenna 
murmurings.  The weather needs to be just right for most of us to get 
out the chainsaw and test a new model.  If I build an E or F class 
rocket I could use it to string the leader lines to pull long antennas 
through the trees.  The rockets would let me aim more accurately as long 
as I find a windless and wet day to try it.
