Good Evening,
The new time for the twenty meter net worked well. Signals were
clear, easy copy, even with deep QSB. I gave one report as the range S2
to S8. The new time for the forty meter net was not as good. Signals
had the same deep QSB but were weaker with more band noise. Now to
figure out when forty meters works better. I am not sure whether to
move it earlier or later to get the best propagation paths.

It has gotten cold enough to prevent all but the most hardy spiders
from building webs. I still get one in the face now and then. There
are some mushrooms but only a few scattered chanterelles. Thinning
trees has changed how the deer walk near the house. The new path is
only a few feet from where I am sitting. A few days ago I was
interrupted by a doe browsing on a shrub a few feet away. She ate her
way around the house from window to window. I lost sight of her as she
walked around back. I got lost in work until another ear flick out the
left hand window got my attention. Another deer. Only this one was not
acting the same. Then I noticed two little buttons on his head. The
shortest antlers I had ever seen; they just barely poked out of the
fur. He was following the scent trail of the doe not the path she had
walked. A minute or two later he was off behind the house too.
Until next week,
73,
Kevin. KD5ONS
