[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report

[kevinr]

Good Evening,

    Twenty meters was loud again with many signals.  There was QSB and 
nowhere to start a net.  So I punched down my rising bread dough and 
formed a loaf.  There was time enough for it to rise and bake before the 
second net.  However, the smell of it was holding my attention.  Then 
Marv regained it from Washington with a weak signal.  Dale and Brian 
were about the same strength with the same amount of QSB.  Their weather 
reports were different.  While we had all had clouds and rain, Dale had 
a downpour.  Now his new plants are well settled for the summer.  It is 
time for another warm spell.  Then my sourdough starter can grow more 
active.  A cool house keeps the loaves more dense but the flavor is 
incredible.  Time for me to actively fill my truck with firewood to burn 
off the extra calories.  One thing I have noticed with the slower life 
style of the last few months is I spend more time cooking.  The stack of 
dishes piling up has a governing effect.


   On 7047.5 kHz at 0000z:

KG7V - Marv - WA

K6PJV - Dale - CA

K0DTJ - Brian - CA


Around noon I saw a new bird perched behind the house.  I think it was a 
female Black-throated gray warbler.  I need another sighting to confirm 
things though she may have just been passing through.  The forest has 
been filling with new bird calls.  This may have been one of them.

    Until next week stay well 73,

       Kevin.  KD5ONS
