Good Evening,
Both bands were crystal clear and quiet. But neither were very
productive. The inclement weather of the Midwest may be part of it.
Even Central California was getting its share. Thunderstorms and a
tornado. Things are quieter here but it has been steadily raining for
the last ?? days. It becomes normal after a while so I use it to my
advantage. Get ready for the rainy season then spend it affixed to a
keyboard.
Ken had the coolest temperature on both bands. He mentioned more
snow is coming but it is January and he lives in North Dakota; there is
no mystery involved. Dave told me of white out conditions but only a
few inches of snow from it. Roy also had snow, enough to get his
snowblower active. However, when Mike mentioned ice on his antennas I
shivered. Snow is fine. Rain is OK. Ice is bad. But I think hearing
about a tornado in Central California was the most surprising.
On 14049.5 kHz at 2200z:
W0CZ - Ken - ND 4 degrees and sunny
K6XK - Roy - IA 6 degrees
K4TO - Dave - KY 16 degrees and sunny
On 7047 kHz at 0000z:
W0CZ - Ken - ND 0 degrees
K4TO - Dave - KY
K6PJV - Dale - CA Thunderstorms and a Tornado
K0DTJ - Brian - CA 53 degrees and breezy
AB9V - Mike - IN 10 degrees ice then 4" snow
Until next week, stay well and stay warm,
Kevin. KD5ONS
