Good Evening,

   A few minutes after the second net I started dinner.  Then I walked out onto the deck.  I took a few steps when I heard the crack of a branch.  Deer don't do that.  I turned and saw a round black shape which ran like a bear.  Hmmm... black bear, cool.  Not very big but I haven't seen one in many years.  Nothing much for it to eat so it must have been moving through the corridor between watering holes.  The salmon berries are too green but getting larger.

  Twenty meters went well as I compared my two antennas.  Deep QSB on everyone.  Topics include spending time at the bench, a ten meter opening, and crop planting schedules.  Any product which depends on grain will be effected.

   Cool weather is easing slowly.  A few of you are getting down right hot.  But 80 in Georgia in June is not that bad though the humidity must be in the mid 90s.  If you don't move too fast it's comfortable.

   Forty meters worked well to only a couple folks.  I heard nothing else.  Both antennas worked about the same.  QSB would cause one to work better than the other so I kept switching.  I would send on whichever heard the best.  The rebuilt antenna works better north south than it does east west.  If I could only launch it  50 feet higher into that fir tree.
