Good Evening,
Both bands had QSB and some noise. I was hearing you all much better than
most of you were hearing me. I had one station calling for a relay who was
very good copy. Too bad he did not send his call sign while I was not calling.
As I mentioned last week my database crashed. The blanks in the reports
will gradually be filled in as I rebuild from an old backup. None of the
monthly back ups survived until I got back to March of 2008. I dug around the
house and found all the paper documents from then until now. All I need to do
is build the system again and reinsert all the data for all the nets over the
past two years. I am not sure how long that will take so the numbers won't be
right until it is done.
On to the lists =>
On 14050 kHz at 2200z:
NO8V - John - MI - K3
K6PJV - Dale - CA - K3
KL7QOW - Mike - AK - K?
AB9V - Mike - IN - K3 - 398
N0AR - Scott - MN - K2 - 4866
K1THP - Dave - CT - K3
K4JPN - Steve - GA - K2 - 1422
On 7045 kHz at 0000z:
K6DGW - Fred - CA - K3
K6PJV - Dale - CA - K3
K0DTJ - Brian - CA - K?
N0TA - John - CO - K3
NO8V - John - MI - K3
AB9V - Mike - IN - K3 - 398
W0CZ - Ken - ND - K3 - 457
N0AR - Scott - MN - K2 - 4866
If you had your rig before two years ago and checked into the nets then I
have your current data. If not then I will find it and insert it over time. I
do not know how long it will take until I have everything back again but bear
with me. It will get done. The hard drive is gradually eating itself so I am
now working on a spare computer. I need to buy a hard drive tomorrow so I can
Ghost everything which survived onto a new one. Then I reformat this one and
see if it is worth using it somewhere else. Only days before the crash I
thought of making a copy on another computer but something came up. Now I can
repent in leisure ;)
Currently the wind is blowing pretty well and the forecast is for 40 to 50
mph winds tomorrow. Only the dead, hanging branches are of any concern because
the wind storms routinely clear out any weak ones. Now to continue banging
away at the keyboard to recreate what I lost. When I scanned the drive there
were no orphan files to recover. For some reason the simple act of opening
Star Office overwrote the file. I have no idea how that happened. The routine
backups getting zapped is also surprising. But since I have a network future
backups will be distributed to at least two other computers. Two years of data
is too painful to recreate on a regular basis.
Until next week stay well,
73,
Kevin. KD5ONS (Net Control Operator 5th Class)
