Elecraft CW Net Report
Locked

Good Evening,
Both bands were quiet and weak. Forty meters had deep QSB on everyone. Reports of S4 to S9 happened. I gave one of S1 to S8. Good thing the bands were quiet because the QSB made life interesting. Forty meters was even more fun. I don't think I had the chance to call CQ before I had worked everyone. As you'll see in the report forty meters was reaching out both east and south but I got one person just over the mountain from me. A birthday, church work, antenna tuning, fog, trips, and football were a few topics. For some reason Dave was on a 160 meter antenna when we were on 20 meters. It worked well but seemed an unobvious choice. Ken mentioned cold but thought it worse to his east. On 14050.5 kHz at 2200z: W0CZ - Ken - ND K4TO - Dave - KY K6XK - Roy - IA K4JPN - Steve - GA On 7047 kHz at 0000z: W0CZ - Ken - ND KG7V - Marv - WA K4TO - Dave - KY K6XK - Roy - IA W6JHB - Jim - CA K6PJV - Dale - CA K0DTJ - Brian - CA W7LXN - Myron - AZ Only 15 days left in 2018, this year flew by. But I've been very busy and enjoyed it a great deal. Wayne asked me about running the nets for so many years and I told him it was habit. It is more than that though. It has made my Sundays a lot more fun for many years. I've met a great number of fine folks from all over. I don't think I could stop running them. So, yes, they are a habit, but a good one :) Until next week, 73, Kevin.

Hi Kevin,
There is a good reason I was on the 160M vertical on 20. It was the antenna I could hear you best on. :-) Right now, my rotating tower with the 40M Moxons is pointed at 164 and I won't turn it because I have a trolley cable attached at 125 feet, getting ready to install a four element OWA yagi. The weather has to cooperate. On 40, I was using the Moxons, even though they were 180 degrees from you. 18 dB down is still a good signal :-) Always good to hear you.. I will try to make it as often as possible. But I will be traveling for the next two Sundays and won't be on the net. 73, Dave, K4TO On Sun, Dec 16, 2018 at 9:44 PM kevinr <[hidden email]> wrote: > Good Evening, > > Both bands were quiet and weak.
