Good Evening,
That was interesting ;) Twenty meters was less than optimal whereas forty meters was just noisy, weak, and filled with QSB. It was also changing a minute by minute basis; still it was much better than twenty! I know a solar stream was due to hit the earth in the last week but I have not been following the news. I have been buried in other projects.
The weather turned back to its typical Oregon rainy season mode. Not all that wet but it is starting to get chilly up here. My sister asked about snow but I don't think that will come until after Christmas. January is when we normally get our greatest accumulations. I have seen ten feet of snow on the ground but the older folks tell me it has gotten a lot deeper than that in the past. I am not sure whether to believe twenty feet though but the trees have a certain look to them which tells of harsher winters than I have seen. Whole swaths are snapped at between twenty and thirty feet above the ground in the older trees. Those less than forty years old do not show this tendency.

I did forget to ask Jeff, W7BRS, for his information but he has it listed on his emails so I got a bye on that one :) If there are any corrections, such as Pete using another rig ;) please send me the fixes and I'll get them into the database. As I mentioned earlier the conditions were interesting. Hopefully soon the sun will sprout some spots and propagation will improve. It sure would come in handy during the fox hunts!
Please stay warm and stay well,
73,
Kevin. KD5ONS (Net Control Operator 5th Class)
