[Dennis]

December 2011 Check-ins & the radios used.
02:00 zulu, 7230usb primary, 7240usb 1st alternate, 7260usb 2nd alternate.
Typical winter propagation has been very spotty, though better than years past. We have had nets that lasted 5 minutes(& less), & others that ran 1 hour.

December 2011 Check-ins & the radios used.
03:00 zulu 3996 USB
As 40 meter propagation deteriorates, 75 meters has improved. Target time is 03:00z but we may be on earlier, or later, dependent on the frequency's availability.
