Elecraft CW Net Announcement

Kevin Rock
Good Evening,
   I just checked to make sure: Daylight Savings Time does not start until next Sunday.  I was going to reinstate the forty meter net with the time change.  So next week we can try 40 meters and see how it works.  Conditions have not been very good lately; but there was a new sunspot this week.  That sunspot is gone though I just read a solar stream hit the ionosphere yesterday.  There is hope for better conditions ;)  Let's check by running the net.  Propagation charts and programs are one thing but actual contacts demonstrate real proof of conditions.  
   This week had some sun but mostly snow and clouds.  The forecast is for rain for the rest of the week.  I hope so because it is starting to get dry in Oregon.  This has not been a normal winter.  I am glad of that in a way because I was not able to fix one last leak around my skylight.  Next summer will give me another chance at getting everything repaired so I can continue my other renovation projects.  If I don't get the roof fixed it does not make sense to work on the drywall.  Now that winter is almost done I can estimate my wood used for the year.  Looks like five cords will be enough for the entire heating season.  Next year I hope to have a tighter and a more insulated house so I can use less wood and stay cozy.
   
Please join us tomorrow evening.
