Good Evening,

    Writing that always gives me the chills; like Alfred is about to start his monologue.  My parents never should have let me stay up that late.  Scared me silly.  Be that as it may the week has progressed.  Cool, rainy, but pleasant.  K4 chatter remains high as does Elecraft's customer service rep.  I think they do a fine job if you need another data point.

  The sun, however, has a less reputable history.  Sunspot number: ZERO, 10.7 cm flux: 67 SFU (ucky), and the Tunguska blast was featured on spaceweather.com  Life (sigh).  But there is an upside to this gloom, the bands are fairly quiet so even the least of us can be heard.  As long as that special path exists you can work QRP, QRO, or higher and get your point across.

  The pileated woodpeckers are making a home close to mine.  The loggers left an old stump (60 feet high but it has no top) and they are hammering their way into it.  From what I've seen they can cut prime timber at the rate of eight inches a day.  A dead tree carves much faster.  Soon there will be more of them to cackle away.  If anything Woody the Woodpecker has a watered down version of the species.

Please join us on:

73,
