Good Evening,

    Twenty meters had a little noise and mild QRN.  I had to move the 
net after a loud CQ started up on net frequency.  Guess they could not 
hear me.  Forty meters lasted longer than normal.  With the extra 
daylight I was able to work into Southern California. After I closed 
with W8OV I heard someone calling him.  I waited and then worked KO6WL 
at ESP levels.  It took a number of repetitions but I got the call one 
part at a time.  Even without an active sun signals were fair.  From now 
until the time change forty meters should work well for us with the 
longer days.

   On 14050.5 kHz before 2200z:

W0CZ - Ken - ND

NO8V - John - MI


   On 14050.75 kHz after 2200z due to QRM:

K6XK - Roy - IA

K4JPN - Steve - GA


   On 7047.75 kHz at 0000z:

KG7V - Marv - WA

W0CZ - Ken - ND

K6XK - Roy - IA

K0DTJ - Brian - CA

KL7CW - Rick - AK

W8OV - Dave - TX

KO6WL - Howard - CA


I was able to work a few of you before each net which helped.  I did 
catch an F at the end of the first call up on 40 meters.  I tried 
calling WM5F, Dwight in Idaho, but the window had closed.

Happy Ground Hog's Day!

    73,  Kevin.  KD5ONS
