Elecraft CW Net Announcement

kevinr@coho.net
Good Evening,

    I have been reading forecasts of frigid cold in middle America. 
Being a native of Wisconsin frigid means at least 25 below zero with
wind chill subtracted from there.  I don't think the news people really
mean that though.  The predictions have been drifting upward with a
temperature of 15 degrees (above zero) with light wind.  They must have
been raised in Florida :)

    The sun has been actively sending ions even without any sunspots. 
Sometime around midweek there will be a stream of solar wind.  Too bad
those can't hit on Friday morning so the weekend will have a refreshed
ionosphere.  However, I don't schedule these things.

    On Wednesday I stopped banging on the keyboard and looked up. The
sky was dark.  I thought I had lost most of the day working when I
noticed it was only 1 PM.  The cloud layer was so thick I thought it the
sun was about to set.  When I looked at a satellite photo I found out
why.  I was under a large stream of water flowing from well out in the
Pacific directed at the mouth of the Columbia River.  Needless to say it
has been a very wet week.


Please join us tomorrow on:

14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday  (2 PM PST Sunday)
  7047 kHz at 0000z Monday  (4 PM PST Sunday)

73,

    Kevin. KD5ONS
