[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report

Good Evening,

    A few months ago I cleaned out my weight room and added a 
workbench.  I use it to rebuild my computers.  I moved one of the 
servers in too.  That keeps the room and the weights warm.  I no longer 
have to wear gloves to lift in the winter.  Now, to get the other two 
servers in there so their heat is useful too.

    The twenty meter net was more difficult than I had expected. Signals 
were weak, QRN was moderate, and QSB was too.  Roy mentioned the sun was 
setting at his home.  I may need to move that net earlier.  The forty 
meter net was better, stronger signals with less QSB.  On twenty it was 
slow around 3 S units deep.  On forty it was faster but less deep, about 
1 S unit.  I did start guarding the frequency early but signals stayed 
strong until I ran out of check ins.  0030z will work for ECN/40, maybe 
ECN/20 should start around 2230z next week.

Now Ziggy played guitar
Jamming good with Weird and Gilly
And The Spiders from Mars
He played it left hand
But made it too far
Became the special man
Then we were Ziggy's band

Ziggy really sang
Screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo
Like some cat from Japan
He could kill 'em by smiling
He could leave 'em to hang
He came on so loaded, man,
Well hung, snow white tan

So where were the spiders
While the fly tried to break our bones?
Just the beer light to guide us
So we bitched about his fans
