Good Evening,

    Twenty meters had stronger signals than forty meters.  It also had 
deeper QSB.  Some fast flutter on a few of you.  Spring is almost here.  
Another foot of snow and the ground can start warming.  A number of bark 
inspector bird species showed up when the snow was deep.  Creepers, 
nuthatches, and small woodpeckers. Time for me to clean the hummingbird 
feeders and set them in place.

    Sometimes I fall asleep between nets.  I wrote a remedy for that: a 
timer application I use often.  It began like a 3 minute egg timer.  But 
only one time setting seemed a little lame, so I made it for nine times 
with nine separate alarms.  If I hook my laptop up to my Bluetooth 
speakers a few of the alarm tones can alert me even outside the house.  
I first wrote the alarms as a sequence of tones in A of various 
octaves.  55 Hz made the house shake.  Since then beep() was deprecated 
so I replaced the tones with wave files.
