[Elecraft] Elecraft 80M SSB Net Announcement

Please join us on 3784 kHz (NOTE THE NEW FREQUENCY), 9PM ET Sunday 
(0100Z Monday). Note that the net stays on the same local time, when we 
switch back and forth to/from Daylight time, so the UTC time changes, 
but not the local time.

Now that we have moved into Daylight time and have longer daylight 
hours, 80M may not be as strong as during the winter.

Your net control this week will be Dave, N8SBE, although I've had 
intermittent antenna issues at high power the last few weeks.  This 
seems to be an 80M only issue, for some reason.  If I continue to have 
issues this evening, please listen for Eric, WB9JNZ, who has done a 
stellar job over the past few weeks of taking over as NCS after my 
hi-power station went down.

We are currently in the throes of a class G4 geomagnetic storm.  
Hopefully most of it will be over by the net tonight.  It certainly 
trashed the 20M and 40M SSB nets earlier today.  I'm listening to 40M 
recovering now, with short skip starting to come back in for the MI 
ARPSC SSB Net, so keep your fingers crossed.

Hope to see you this evening on the net.

73,

-- Dave, N8SBE
