Good Evening,

    The annual Field Day hiatus has passed.  It has been cool and wet.  
But, then, it is not yet officially summer in Oregon.  For that you have 
to wait until after July 4th.  However, the loggers have been very 
active.  They're clearing the other side of the top of this mountain.  
Each morning they are a little closer.  Luckily they don't get noisy 
until just before dawn.  The cool weather lets them work longer each day 
so they will be done sooner.  Then I can sleep again.

    The sun did have a couple tiny sunspots this week.  Broke the streak 
of 30+ spotless days.  We are between solar wind streams so the 
background noise should be less; at least from the space side of 
things.  Summer thunderstorms are even funneling down the Columbia River 
valley.  That reminds me I need to reattach my antennas.  Lightning 
strikes so rarely here that I unscrew them once a year or less.


Please join us on:

14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday (3 PM PDT Sunday)
  7047 kHz at 0000z Monday (5 PM PDT Sunday)

73,
Kevin. KD5ONS
