Kevin:
Well, I tried to check in. I heard Kevin (most of the time) and maybe 2
other stations. I guess I'll have to wait until I get a real antenna.

NEVER GIVE UP! Conditions weren't the best tonight... on EITHER net
for that matter.
There were several(!) stations who attempted to dump their calls in
once (or twice) but didn't seem to want to stick around long enough
for Kevin (or me) to acknowledge them. Just because you don't get
thru on the first couple attempts, DO NOT ASSUME that you're not
being heard... you may just be the 3rd or 4th level down and we often
tend to pick up the strongest (or fastest) first when then work our
way down the list. SO at least give it the old college try several
more times before assuming you're not going to be heard.
And, for those others who DO get through... if you hear someone
attempting to QNI (check in) and neither Kevin nor I (nor anyone
else) is acknowledging them, PLEASE dump YOUR call in (again) and
relay (QSP) that other station when once you're acknowledged by the
NCS at that time.
