Good Evening,
I think our weather is very nice. Sunny, light wind, the smell of earth
drying after a few days of showers, and a temperature of 65 degrees. Not too
bad. So, I got my bicycle out and attempted to ride up the mountain. Kevin is
in sad shape! I can hike up the mountain but riding my bike up there is not as
easy as it was when I was twenty when I hiked, climbed, and spelunked the Black
Hills :) However, that was too many years ago to remember very well and I was
just a kid. I have grown older and marginally wiser ;) Both are good.
Unfortunately I have not been able to check conditions this week. My mentor
and I have had conflicting schedules due to appointments. Hopefully that will
change next week. I was able to check in to the MARS net last night and that
was simple; unlike the many other times I have tried lately. 80 meters is just
not working very well in covering Oregon and Washington (Region 10 to be exact)
and relay stations are very difficult to find. This reminds me: if you can
hear someone calling ECN who is not acknowledged by net control while you were
please call again so you can relay that station to us. Just a call sign is
enough in all cases. I can find the information and log them.
Please join us tomorrow evening.
1) Hail signs (first letter or two of the suffix of your call)
2) NCS help (as well as QSP/QNP <relay> help)
Sunday 2300z (Sunday 4 PM PDT) 14050 kHz
Monday 0100z (Sunday 6 PM PDT) 7045 kHz
Stay healthy,
Kevin. KD5ONS
