Elecraft CW Net Report

kevinr@coho.net
Good Evening,

    A few minutes after the second net I started dinner.  Then I walked
out onto the deck.  I took a few steps when I heard the crack of a
branch.  Deer don't do that.  I turned and saw a round black shape which
ran like a bear.  Hmmm... black bear, cool.  Not very big but I haven't
seen one in many years.  Nothing much for it to eat so it must have been
moving through the corridor between watering holes.  The salmon berries
are too green but getting larger.

   Twenty meters went well as I compared my two antennas.  Deep QSB on
everyone.  Topics include spending time at the bench, a ten meter
opening, and crop planting schedules.  Any product which depends on
grain will be effected.

    Cool weather is easing slowly.  A few of you are getting down right
hot.  But 80 in Georgia in June is not that bad though the humidity must
be in the mid 90s.  If you don't move too fast it's comfortable.

    Forty meters worked well to only a couple folks.  I heard nothing
else.  Both antennas worked about the same.  QSB would cause one to work
better than the other so I kept switching.  I would send on whichever
heard the best.  The rebuilt antenna works better north south than it
does east west.  If I could only launch it  50 feet higher into that fir
tree.
