When you hear the others sending their call or "hail" sign just send yours. Usually I'll get alerted to you by the other ops. Today I was getting comments about how folks were hearing which did not match what I was hearing. I was in the middle of a torrent of rain from my trees. The sun was hitting the new fallen snow and melting it. My normally strong path to the Anchorage, AK area was not there as well the one into MI. Forty meters usually captures all of WA and some of OR. I did work one Portland, OR station which is normally out of my reach because of the mountains in the way.

So send your call sign when you hear the others send theirs. Then they will feel guilty for not telling me if they read more of these email messages. Guilt worked for my parents I think this is the perfect spot to attempt it :)

    73 & please keep calling,

I listened to check in to the 40 meter net. I could faintly hear the net
control station but could not copy his transmissions here in Washington
State.  Most California stations were at least 5 7 or 5 9 but I didn't hear
anyone ask for relays to check in.
