Elecraft CW Net Announcement

Good Evening,
     Weather was quite pleasant today.  Dry enough for a crosscountry
walk and sunny enough to see well underneath the canopy.  As I was
hiking I kicked up a few deer and few grouse.  Grouse always startle me
even when they are not underfoot when they flush.  Lots of sign of elk
and deer underneath the fir trees.  I would be walking along looking up
to avoid branches when my feet would tell me there was another game
trail underfoot.  A couple of them were four feet wide!  I wonder if the
bear go through there too?

     Propagation has been good on the higher bands.  Forty can be very
noisy but twenty meters has been very nice.  If the weather were not so
nice I would get on the air during the daytime to test above twenty
meters.  But with such non-typical sunshine I am out developing paths
around the property.  Maybe I can help those pesky elk find a better way
from watering hole to breakfast to their sleeping areas.

Please join us tomorrow afternoon and evening.

Merry Christmas to all,
