I find exactly the same situation here on the west coast. The MRCG Clatternet west has been quiet for the last few weeks.
Propagation seems to be getting a bit better lately - I regularly hit RBN skimmers in PA & New England. It’s funny that
I can work 30-40 states using RTTY during a contest over a weekend, but virtually zero otherwise. I’ve seen a couple of
newcomers (newer than me) to the group expressing interest in getting their machines on the air. Maybe we could get a list
together. I’d like to see a Greenkeyers chat sked.
