This evening's nets were interesting. First twenty meters was spotty. I
had to be careful not to lose someone because they could go away at a moment's notice. Even then the copy was not simple. Some of you were at or below the noise. I may have missed a few due to these conditions. I am sorry. Forty meters was plagued by QRN. I was running with the volume on maximum so there were times I could not hear my own sidetone due to the static crashes around the country. My ears are getting better now. There will be some ringing for a while. Donovan and Elton John are on now after the Grieg suite completed. Soothes my ears :) On 14050 kHz at 2256 z: WG4S - Dan - GA - K2 - 2456 K2HYD - Ray - VA - KX1 - 608 W0SZ - Steve - CO - K2 - 88 KL7CW - Rick - AK - KX1 - 798 VE1RGB - Gary - NS - K2 - 2519 QNI #30 Guest number 1 W0QQS - Bruce - MN - K2 - 3646 QNI #30 Guest number 130 Thanks guys!

Guest number 2 As always, if there are any errors in the above lists please send me the corrections and I will post them and fix my database. If I missed you this evening please try again. Sometimes the bands do allow easy copy across the continent. Tonight those occurrences were by luck. Well, except for Ray! He seems to have something going for him to get across the country each week with three watts. Must be one of those special KX1s that Wayne awards the worthy ;) Take care, Kevin.
