Good Evening All,
At 0000z the 20 meter band fell silent. Then, out of this silence
sprang the Elecraft CW Net. Folks were not too tired to slow down from 40
wpm contesting speed to check in. 17 folks on the first net and 12 on the
second one. The bands were not worn out but seemed quite good across the
continent. Alaska to Florida and New York to California. Pretty good
geographic spread. K1s, K2s, and KX1s were represented as well as the odd
glow bug instrument.
Ken, W0CZ, won the coldest town award and was going for two during the
second net. 12 degrees F is a bit chilly. Palmer, Alaska and Greely,
Ontario, Canada could not beat that mark. There was a bit of snow out
East but not too much for the folks in ND, PA, and IN to handle. No
reports of snow or cold from Colorado though. A few new faces and a lot
of familiar ones. Nice mix all around. But, on to the lists.
