Good Evening,

    QSB made life interesting.  It varied from slow waves running from 
S3 to S9 followed by faster rates as I copied farther west. By the time 
I landed in CO or TX the rate began chopping characters.  I had to ask 
W0LI for many repetitions.  Each element was being broken into dits.  
First I copied the trailing LI but kept hearing VE9 or JA1 for the 
prefix.  Finally the W0 portion popped out.  Thanks for the patience Dick.

    One weather report stuck out: Roy's 82F and sunny.  Makes me want 
beach front property in Iowa.  Then sanity breaks my bubble when I 
remember the biting insects.  It is easy to make a blood donation there, 
just walk outside on a humid summer night.  Dave was working on his deck 
while Ken had been evacuated from church because of a power outage.  It 
is wet in the SE and in the PNW. If only I could ship the excess to 
where it is needed.


   On 14050.5 kHz at 2200z:

W0CZ - Ken - ND

K6XK - Roy - IA

K4TO - Dave - KY

K4JPN - Steve - GA

W0LI - Dick - CO


   On 7047.5 kHz at 0045z:

W0CZ - Ken - ND

WM5F - Dwight - ID

K6PJV - Dale - CA

K0DTJ - Brian - CA

W8OV - Dave - TX


     I finished the second net with visions of barbequed chicken, 
salmon, and shrimp.  Too bad I had none of them.  So I settled for an 
inch and a half thick steak with rice and beans.  Too bad Oregon is so 
far from Maine, the lobster is rather pricey here. They go well on a 
grill too.  Plenty of limes and butter.

    Until next week stay well & 73,

         Kevin.  KD5ONS

         Long pause.    Deep Thought bleeps and bloops.
