[Wswss] Tuesday evening 1296 activity

[Jim Klitzing]

Stations that were logged here in Northern Cal:

WA6UAP - CM97, San Jose
K6QXY  - CM88, Santa Rosa
WA6KLK - CM89, Willits
W6IZU  - CM98, El Dorado
WA6QAK - CM98, Pollack Pines
K6NC   - CM98, Wilton
KG6HXI - CM98, Wilton
KC6SEH - CM98, Broderick
K6TSK  - DM03, Anaheim
W6QIW  - DM04, Santa Barbara

Local conditions were average, a bit better down the coast to DM03 and
DM04. Both Ralph and Steve were SSB quality, with Steve peaking at s5
here, and s9 in Santa Rosa; he was also heard as far North as Willits.

This time of year, tropo seems to die out some just after sunset,
returning 30 to 60 minutes later. As the fall moves into winter, I think
we'll see progressively better conditions during these activity times.

See you next week...
