[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report

2023-09-10 Thread kevin

Good Evening,

   My "new" antenna worked very well.  More noise, which was expected, 
and more contacts, which was gratifying.  I built the dipole from 
recycled antennas.  Most of my antennas fail at the feed point due to 
limbs bending under heavy snow loads.  Others fail due to limbs flying 
in the wind.  In any case I build up a stock of 1/4 wavelength wires for 
20 and 40 meters.  In the last year I built a 1/4 vertical with 20 1/4 
wavelength radials, an inverted Y for 40 meters, as well as the most 
recent 20 meter dipole.  I have a few more lengths of wire plus the 
fixings for a 40 meter resonant flat topped dipole.



  On 14050.5 kHz 2200z:

NO8V - John - MI

[Elecraft] Elecraft 80M SSB Net Announcement

2023-09-10 Thread Dave New, N8SBE
Please join us on 3784 kHz (NOTE THE NEW FREQUENCY), 9PM ET Sunday 
(0100Z Monday). Note that the net stays on the same local time, when we 
switch back and forth to/from Daylight time, so the UTC time changes, 
but not the local time.


Now that we have moved into Daylight time and have longer daylight 
hours, 80M may not be as strong as during the winter.


Your net control this week will be Dave, N8SBE.

Hope to see you this evening on the net.

73,

-- Dave, N8SBE
