Good Evening,
When I received weather reports this afternoon I had the next to hottest temperature. Only Steve, K4JPN, in Georgia was warmer at 95 degree. Even now I am still sticking to the desks at which I seat myself. The breeze running through the house is regulated by where the most shade is around the house. Now that the sun is behind the canopy of the trees it is cooling down some. No matter what you may think Oregon is not all that humid. Nothing like the Midwest or South. So when the sun goes down it cools off quickly. Conditions on twenty meters were weak to the East but better to the North and South of me. I am still waiting for propagation to get back to where it was during the spring. Even though the solar cycle is on a rising note it is taking its own sweet time about improving. Forty meters greeted me with heavy QRN. You may have been calling me but my noise level was S5 during the entire net so I may not have heard you. Walking out to listen to the trees and birds was quite soothing afterward. On to the lists => On 14050 kHz at 2200z: N0AR - Scott - MN - K2 - 4866 AB9V - Mike - IN - K3 - 398 KL7QOW - Mike - AK - K3 - 3144 N0TA - John - CO - K3 - 994 K4JPN - Steve - GA - K2 - 1422 W0RSR - Mike - CO - K2 - 5767 W8OV - Dave - TX - K3 - 3139 W0CZ - Ken - ND - K3 - 457 WB5BKL - Nick - TX - K3 - 231 WB3AAL - Ron - PA - K2 - 1392 K0DTJ - Brian - CA - K3 - 4113 On 7045 kHz at 0000z: KL7QOW - Mike - AK - K3 - 3144 K6PJV - Dale - CA - K3 - 1183 K0DTJ - Brian - CA - K3 - 4113 N0TA - John - CO - K3 - 994 Hopefully my weather will cool off just a little so I can get back to work on my wood pile. There is a lot cut in the woods but it needs to get split and find its way home with me. Once I clear the entire loop I will be able to gather more wood more quickly but until then I am practicing backing up my F250 along a winding path through the trees. I tried marking the trees with surveyor's tape only to find I could not tell right from left. So I have modified my scheme to yellow on one side and pink on the other. That helps me not run into trees. Until next week stay cool, 73, Kevin.
