Elecraft CW Net Announcement

kevinr@coho.net
Good Evening,

    The loggers are done, I need to set my alarm clock again. Once the
torrential rains of winter have flattened out the ruts it will be fun to
hike the forest again.  I expect by mid-summer some of the undergrowth
will have come back.  I was startled by a grouse this morning so she is
inspecting the new areas too.  More elk tracks leading to new trails. 
Once they figure things out there will be a number of hard packed trails
I can follow.

   I was able to drop the two hemlock trees blocking the southern leg of
my doublet.  When I came inside and checked the bands I heard an AK
station working an AZ station.  Very good copy so I left it on and made
lunch.  A long rag chew about antennas and rigs and such.  Next I heard
a station from Costa Rica.  I kept scanning and found MN, MI, NE, FL,
TX, AL, AZ, WI, and OK.  I think that antenna is working on twenty as I
had expected it would.  On forty meters AK, BC, AZ, CA, WY, IA, KY, UT,
and FL. Working there too.  Now to test it with tomorrow's nets.  I left
the second antenna right where it was so I'll keep A/B testing for a
while.  But antenna work is never done.


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

As time and technology have changed I wonder about the future.

Such as the conundrum of which is the proper listening order of the
White Album?


Vinyl -

    Album 1 side 1

    Album 2 side 1


flip stack or vinyl nurturist?


    Album 1 side 2

    Album 2 side 2


Cassette -

    Tape 1 side 1

    Tape 1 side 2


    Tape 2 side 1

    Tape 2 side 2


CD -  ( I don’t have the White Album on CD)

    Album 1 ??

    Album 2 ??


MP3 -

    Alphabetic order of song titles (very strange, just doesn’t feel right)

    Some arcane numeric order of song titles

    or one of the above orderings?



And you wonder what we think about in the forests of Oregon ;)
