Hello All,
I am pretty sure I'll not be able to run the Elecraft CW Net on
Sunday. My first reason was because I would be exhausted from working
Field Day. Well, those plans fell through. The venue where I was to
participate had to cancel their activities as of a few hours ago. I've
not been able to find any other club or group who wants a spare CW op.
So, I may just work a little of the Field Day activities from home. I've
done that for the last three years but was hoping for some company this
year. Maybe I'll find a place on someone's team next year.
In any case I hope you all do quite well and hope the propagation
favors your antennas at your site. The weather is predicted to reach the
90s on Saturday and Sunday so I'll most likely not get much wood splitting
or hauling done. Maybe I should park the truck near the wood pile, turn
on the headlights, and work after it cools off. Speaking of wood cutting
two new clear cuts have started up within a quarter mile of the house.
The large one right next to me is almost done but now it looks like I'll
get a few more months of o'dark thirty wake up calls by the log trucks. I
keep wondering why I set an alarm since I have to remember to turn it off
hours after I wake up!
If I do work FD I'll be running under my own call. I am not sure of
the letter designation but it will be only one rig on emergency power. I
may switch between rigs to try them all out on different antennas but I
think since I am a single op I'll be working a 1?? station setup. I
should dig up the rules now since my plans have changed.
Good luck to you all and hope to hear you on the air,
73,
Kevin. KD5ONS (Net Control Station on Hiatus)
