Oh for your temperatures. We here in North Carolina have been having a battle with the record for the most days over 90 deg/F. Right now, we are 10 days ahead of the record in 2007. Global warming speculation anyone?? 73, Don W3FPR On 9/4/2010 11:08 PM, Kevin Rock wrote: > Good Evening, > Another chilly week. This has been the shortest and coldest "summer" since I have lived in Oregon. Folks here are talking about summer coats and gloves. They are not kidding! I have only had a couple t-shirt days and those are spaced out on those rare days when the temperature got over 70 degrees. However, there is a silver lining to that grey cloud: the fire danger has been very low. Just means we have to wait for next year to feel warm. "Summer" started late, is finishing early and was interspersed with many cold snaps so we had maybe three weeks of warm weather total. Even the leaves are changing and the critters are making plans for winter. > I have not been on the air much this week but when I was on 80 meters copy was very good. Unfortunately all of that was local. No great shakes for DX contacts but it was fun to call CQ and see who was out there. Casual chats which were tailended by other curiosity seekers was a nice way to spend a few hours on the radio. No points to worry about, no pile ups to fight, just work a few people and find out what they are thinking. Once I make contact I rarely talk about radio since it is obvious that I have one. It is more fun to talk about the garden or the outdoors or just whatever comes up. No pressure to perform just a simple chat. And, since they are locals, we can talk about how cold it is without someone thinking we are a bit whacko :) > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
