Elecraft CW Net Report for December 16th & 17th, 2007
 
|
Good Evening,
It worked! Moving the forty meter net forward in time allowed many more to check in. Signals were great here but some of the reports for me were not as good. Where I was giving a 579 I was getting a 559 with QSB. Oh well, it worked as well as it could. From my afternoon's reading I found the sun may be starting up again. Plus the shortest day of the year is close at hand. It can only get better from here on out; unless there is a solar storm. Even that improves conditions after thing settle down. One new K3 on the list so they are slowing leaking out to the public. Guess most of them are going to non-CW operators. I did get a DX contact at the end of the twenty meter net: JA7AXN. He gave me a 559 too. His contact information on QRZ is very sparse. What is the URL for JARL (I think that's right)? He said QTH Fukishima but there was a little QSB along with some QRN so I may have missed a letter. His name was Numa of which I am sure. Any assistance? Yesterday, while testing propagation on 40 meters, I thought I was about to work some DX when I heard 6E4LM work RZ0AF. After I got done with 6E4LM I found I should have chased RZ0AF instead :) Even though I have most areas of Russia it is fun to work another. 6E4LM is operating from an island off Baja California which is not all that far from me. Working Vermont is further! Now that my K2 has been upgraded to the B modifications I should try a little DXing. Can anyone give me some time? The lists => On 14050.50 kHz at 2300z: N0SS - Tom - MO - K3 - 008 W0CZ - Ken - ND - K2 - 1031 KL7CW - Rick - AK - KX1 - 798 K9ZTV - Kent - MO - K3 - 0021 NO8V - John - MI - K2 K8DD - Hank - MI - K2 - 850 AB9V - Mike - IN - K2 - 3993 W6ZH - Pete - CA - K1 - 553 K2HYD - Ray - NC - KX1 - 608 KS7D - Mike - FL - K3 - 118 QNI #5! K6DGW - Fred - CA - K2 - 4398 KT5E - Jay - CO - K2 - 5037 K9DMV - Joe - IL - K2 - 5628 N0AR - Scott - MN - K2 - 4866 QNI #90!!! JA7AXN - Numa - Japan On 7045 kHz at 0100z: W6ZH - Pete - CA - K1 - 553 QNI #85!!! KL7CW - Rick - AK - KX1 - 798 QNI #105!!!! NO8V - John - MI - K2 QNI #10!! W0JFR - John - CO - K2 - 4507 KT5E - Jay - CO - 5037 AB9V - Mike - IN - K2 - 3993 K6PJV - Dale - CA - K2 - 5345 K9DMV - Joe - IL - K2 - 5628 NK6A - Don - CA - K2 - 1217 K8DD - Hank - MI - K2 - 850 Any corrections or additions to the above lists? Send them to me and I'll fix the database. Thank you for the fine turnout this evening. There was some noise, some QSB, and a little QRM but all in all it was a good time. Ah, just looked at the calendar: next Sunday is my sister's birthday. I had better not tell you how old she is because she may hurt me but she is five years older than me :) Since her birthday is two days before Christmas folks would give her one gift for both holidays. She has been upset over that for as long as I've known her! Until next week stay well and stay warm, 73, Kevin. KD5ONS (Net Control Operator 5th Class) P.S. Today is Ludwig van Beethoven's 237th Birthday. Happy Birthday Ludwig! His Seventh symphony is playing as I write.
