[Elecraft] Elecraft Evening Net Report

[kevinr]

Good Evening,

    Conditions were not too good for the inaugural evening event. 
However, I was not skunked.

   On 7050.5 kHz at 0300z:

KL7CW - Rick - AK


He was much weaker than either of our last two contacts.  He was S9 on 
20 meters and S7 on 40 meters.  Tonight he was around 559 with QSB from 
3 to 6.  Not very much noise which is normally a bad sign.  Higher noise 
usually means I am hearing a broader area of the country.

But nothing ventured nothing gained.  I started opening the net around 
0255z and continued until 0309z.  I did not fail which is always a 
plus.  Next week I'll try again and maybe the sun will cooperate.  There 
were two old sunspots a few days back and new one forming today.  That 
gives me hope that the sun won't remain blank forever.

    Until next week stay well,

       Kevin.  KD5ONS
