Good Evening,
Both bands had low levels of static. QSB was present but not
strong. I did not hear any thunderstorms. I did hear reports of frost,
ice, and snow. Winter seems early this year but Thanksgiving is only a
few weeks off. Squash and pumpkins should be ready for harvest soon.
Every Sunday at 900pm ET (does not change for daylight time)

"My KPA500 is showing 57-58 VDC at 450-500 watts out, and 71-72 VDC on rx."
That's a much smaller spread than I see with my KPA500. Are you powering from
240 VAC or 120 VAC? Running on nominal 120 VAC I have my RX PA volts currently
reading 81.8 and it still sometimes sags just below 60 V on
Every Sunday, I look forward to your description of conditions there in your
neighborhood as a part of your invitation to participate in the CW nets. You
have a thoughtful eye for the conditions and an accomplished talent for
expressing what you see. Thank you for your energy and support of the
