Good Evening,
Both 20m & 40m seemed fair. Deep QSB on both but the noise level
was not too high so I could copy fairly deeply into the valleys.
Temperatures were higher for almost everyone except Ken who was camping
in Northern Minnesota. Rain kept it chilly for him as he was running
his KX2 on a battery from his trailer. Storm noise was rather low, I was
only hearing it in the distance. I did catch a few strays but WES was
hot and heavy when I started on 20m.
On 14050.0 & 14050.5 kHz at 2200z:
I worked John in Michigan and then got pushed off the frequency by WES
folks up to 14050.5 kHz.
NO8V - John - MI
K0DTJ - Brian - CA
K4TO - Dave - KY
WM5F - Dwight - ID
K6XK - Roy - IA
W0CZ - Ken - ND
K6III - Gerald - CA
----- I never could make contact with K4JPN but I am sure I heard him at
least twice.
On 7045 kHz at 0000z:
NR5NN - Jim - CA
WM5F - Dwight - ID
K0DTJ - Brian - CA
K6PJV - Dale - CA
W6JHB - Jim - CA
20m was stronger than 40m since I could compare K0DTJ and WM5F on
both bands. I think the QSB was deepest on 20m sometimes ranging from
S0 - S6 or 7. On 40m the range was about two S units. Now to enjoy a
cool evening before the week really heats up. By the end of the week it
should be in the high 90s during the daytime. I plan to stay underneath
the canopy of the forest and avoid the sun.
Until next week 73,
Kevin. KD5ONS
