Propagation seemed very poor today. A lot of stations that required cranking up the gain to pull in, and there were others that I just couldn't read. We had 21 participants over a 17 minute period. Have a great week. Here is the list of participants. Station NameQTH Rig S/N

I am not sure if the net will go off tomorrow or not. CCWW WPX SSB may make it challenging. Dale, WC7S, may be able to pick it up. Listen for the start at 1800Z on 14.3035MHz. Good luck. 73, Phil, NS7P __ Elecraft mailing list Home:
