[Elecraft] Elecraft 80M SSB Net Report

[Dave New, N8SBE]

3806 kHz (We met on 3828 kHz due to lots of activity this evening on all 
frequencies up to there), 9PM ET Sunday (0200Z Monday).

Thanks to the following check ins (w) and relays (rel):

We had a total of 11 check ins this week (including the NCS). Most 
signals were good all around, except the barefoot station, KF5LNM.  
Thanks to KA0RTM for the relay to pull that station into the net.  For 
the most part, 80M was in good condition overall.   Very nice hearing 
from the new check ins and hope to see all of you again.  The net 
concluded at 9:46 PM ET.

In spite of the recent frequency change, the turnout continues to be 
very encouraging. We ended up on 3828 kHz tonight because there were 
solid QSO's all the way from the bottom of the General band at 3800 kHz 
up to where we met at 3828 kHz.

I've also noted that sometime after the net started that 3809 kHz became 
clear.  I continue to monitor adjacent frequencies to see if we can find 
another one close by that will work better for everyone.  In the 
meantime we will continue to attempt to meet on 3806 kHz.  If you go to 
https://netlogger.org at the net starting time, you should see the 
frequency we are using that evening.

Looking ahead, we will NOT meet on Christmas Eve or New Year's eve, so 
we will have one more net before the end of this year.

Hope to see you next week!
