Good Evening,
I hiked along the southern edge of my property today. Much of the
alder that had blown down in 2007 has crumbled into soil. I found it
easier to traverse as did a number of elk. They were cutting across
from the intermittent stream to get to the canyon on the other side.
After the thinning there's not much for them to eat yet, they're just
passing through for now. Once I got to near the middle I found a cross
path leading to the marsh east of here.
I checked forty meters just after sunset. Some activity from 2 land
and then from someone in 6 calling a 7. It may be time to move the net
times one hour or more later. Comments and recommendations would be nice.
I have also been thinking of trying something on a mid-week
evening. On forty or eighty meters. Kind of an open meeting area for
discussions and contacts. Not a directed net but some means of passing
control around would be good. It would be nice to have something for
the SSB, digital, RTTY, and SSTV folks as well as those of us who use
CW. A Wednesday or Thursday night at or near the watering holes for the
various modes. A round robin net where control passes from one op to
the next with the last person calling CQ to find the next victim. Pass
control around the circle a few times until all questions have been
asked and answered. Once again comments and recommendations are requested.
Please join us on (or near):
