Good Evening,

    It was sunny and warm this week.  I spent four days with saws 
improving my 2.4 GHz signal path.  When we reset the dish earlier this 
year the alder did not have leaves.  They grew to full size blocking the 
path.  Now they are felled, limbed, and stacked; ready for the wood 
stove by winter.  My work opened space for an inverted V, or doublet, 
and more sun.

    The sun tossed a few weak CMEs at us and is still spawning active 
sunspot groups.  Oddly enough quiet conditions are predicted for this 
weekend.  However, sunspot 3373 could send an X-class flare.  May you 
live in interesting times :)  I have my trusty transceiver with working 
antennas to test conditions.

Please join us on (or near):

14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday (3 PM PDT Sunday)
  7047 kHz at 0000z Monday (5 PM PDT Sunday)

    73,
       Kevin. KD5ONS

Mountains should be climbed with as little effort as possible and 
without desire. The reality of your own nature should determine the 
speed. If you become restless, speed up. If you become winded, slow 
down. You climb the mountain in an equilibrium between restlessness and 
exhaustion. Then, when you’re no longer thinking ahead, each footstep 
isn’t just a means to an end but a unique event in itself.
