[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report

Good Evening,

    Twenty meters was as I had predicted.  Forty meter's propagation was 
also foreseen.  QSB helped occasionally but at times it was chopping up 
weak signals.  I kept trying to parse NB5Q into incorrect calls.  Then a 
friendly soul relayed NB5Q at higher levels.  Thank you.  Spring is 
slowly arriving in some parts of the country.  However, it is still 
snowing here.  The last two rounds of the very large tree will get split 
with a chainsaw.  The grain is so curved it just won't split.  Reminds 
me of my one attempt to split elm.

    Forty meters has been working well lately.  Today's net lasted for 
about forty minutes.  The band seems to work best when the sun is still 
up here but set in the Midwest.  The day's are growing longer very 
quickly right now.  Finding the same conditions changes rapidly too.  
Time to decide whether to switch  local or UTC times.

    Until next week stay well,

    73,  Kevin.  KD5ONS
