From So Cal, around the same time as the net (1935-2300z), I worked an
OX3, ON4, YV5, DG0, IK4, and an OZ1. All with 100% copy exchanging about
the same amount of information. Could have worked 20-30 W/A/N/Ks or the
same number of JA's instead. All on a K2 (sn 567) on JT65A running 5
watts (and a TH7DXX at 60'). Maybe the net should move to JT65A-HF. (HI)

Good evening,
Conditions on yesterday's nets were poor. Twenty meters had very
deep QSB. NO8V was S5 one second, S1 the next, and ESP a beat later.
I could get about one word in three so copying the call signs was it.
W0CZ who is normally strong to me was very weak on twenty meters and
only marginally better on 40 meters where he could barely copy me. On
forty I heard a call and the next second they were gone. I checked to
see if my antenna was still up between nets. I have been doing that a
lot lately. Aren't we supposed to be near a solar peak? I was having
better propagation when there were no sunspots.
On to the lists =>
On 14050 kHz at 2200z:
NO8V - John - MI - K3 - 820
W0CZ - Ken - ND - K3 - 457
On 7045 kHz at 0100z:
NO8V - John - MI - K3 - 820
K0DTJ - Brian - CA - K3 - 4113
WI6O - John - CA - K1 - 922
K6PJV - Dale - CA - K3 - 1183
W0CZ - Ken - ND - K3 - 457
I stepped out my front door a moment ago only to freeze. A doe and
her yearling fawn were both looking at me. I looked at them and they
finally relaxed. Only then did I see the other yearling with her.
That one had not moved a muscle so I did not see her. I watched them
for a few minutes until it got too cold to keep holding the door
open. One of these days I am going to open the door and see a herd of
elk standing there. It has been a few years.
73,
