ECN/2 was run on 7046 kHz with Pigs flying everywhere. I had a hard
time trying to get Dan's SN through all the numbers from those piggies but never the less I think I've got it right. Dan if I am wrong please correct me. Besides the aeronautic porcines there was quite of bit of that pure Midwestern QRN to contend with. A heaping helping no less. But the net went fairly well. I even gave Ron a chance to call Ken for his final state. But, silly me, I had forgotten to tell him that Ken was in Minnesota :( Sorry Ron it just flew out of my head. I think I told you he was on vacation but I do remember as I am writing this that he was at Split Rock Creek State Park in the land of 10,000 lakes and about a 100 billion mosquitos. The fish seem to thrive on them however and get quite large. Maybe we'll hear a story about one of those muskies when he gets back to Fargo. Then I'll let you call him for your WAS via ECN/2. Good luck to both of you. Then I forgot to ask Dick which one of his four Elecraft rigs he was using to QNI. Which rig was it Dick? I got excited and forgot to ask you which one. It was a bit noisy so I don't think it was one of the two KX1s but I can never tell about those things. Wayne told me he had some sort of deal with the Aether Bunny to fill them with extra special mojo. I am not sure about Wayne, he's an odd one ;) And finally Karl checks in from across the way and I forget to ask him which Elecraft rig he is on. But we were having a very hard time of communicating from the East Side of the West Hills to the West Side of the Front Range of the Coast Range. One of these days I should run the net from the top of our mountain. That would remove many of the obstructions from our path. Oh well, I had fun and hope you all did too. If I could check you in again next week that would be just fine by me. On to the list: W0CZ - Ken - ND - K2 - 1031 NE5DL - Dave - TX - K2 - 2887 W0NTA - Dick - CO - K2 3900 or K1 712 or KX1 281 or 209 KL7V/5 - Sam - OK - K2 - 3158 AC7XR - Mark - UT - still non Elecraft but next week that will change!!! N0TK - Dan - CO - K2 - 3652 W6AZ - Ron - CA - K2 - 1366 N7NLU - Karl - OR - K1 1663 or K2 4227 Too noisy to ask you which one Karl. Next week Mark will have his K2 ready for prime time. Not sure whether we'll be the recipient of his first call on a brand new K2 but we'll be ready to help break it in properly :) It will be a treat. Thank you all for your support. Until next week 73, Kevin.
