Elecraft CW Net Announcement

Kevin Rock
Good Evening,
    After a quick trip outside I determined I do not need to carry more  
wood for the fireplace.  Yes, it is July, but the temperature has been  
rather chilly.  Without a fire it gets into the low fifties in the house.  
Thus I am burning wood in what should be the summer.  There has been a  
steady rain for the last week in what should be our dry season.  Very  
strange weather.  I am used to burning a fire now and then in the summer  
to get rid of the chill but this is not normal.
    Twenty meters has not been very happy each of the last three mornings.  
I am curently listening to forty and find only a few folks on the band.  I  
am not sure how well we will do tomorrow evening but I am going to try my  
best to check in as many of you as I can.  Tom is off to Hawaii for a few  
weeks.  I am not sure if he took a radio but he may check in from the  
beach :)  If there is anyone willing to take his place in either the East  
or Midwest please give me a call.  Otherwise I'll will work as far across  
the continent as I can under less than optimal conditions.
    Today I did some chores which took me out behind the pumphouse.  As I  
was walking through the trees I was startled by three does looking at me  
like they owned the place.  Maybe they do :)  Later in the day I took a  
hike and found two does near the shed.  They were gone by the time I got  
back.  Just before dinner I stepped out on the porch only to have a single  
doe give me the eye from about ten feet away.  I think they are up to  
something!

    Tomorrow:

1) Hail signs  (first letter or two of the suffix of your call)
2) NCS help (as well as QSP/QNP <relay> help)

    Please join us:

Sunday 2300z (Sunday 4 PM PDT) 14050 kHz
Monday 0200z (Sunday 7 PM PDT)  7045 kHz

    73,
         Kevin.  KD5ONS
