Good Evening,
Conditions were more noisy than I had expected. Just before the
first net I read there had been a burst of solar wind. That caused the
QSB to be deeper too, especially on 40 meters. KL7CW had the best
signal on 20 meters though it was much weaker on 40. W8OV had a good
signal from Texas but forecast cooler, wetter weather. 77 degrees and
sunny sounded nice. On 40 meters we mentioned ignoring the siren call
of hardware stores in the spring. So many plans ...
On 14050.5 kHz at 2200z:
NO8V - John - MI
W0CZ - Ken - ND
KL7CW - Rick - AK
W8OV - Dave - TX
K4TO - Dave - KY
N8ZR - Harry - WV
On 7047.5 kHz at 0000z:
KL7CW - Rick - AK
K6PJV - Dale - CA
K0DTJ - Brian - CA
Rick told us he still had two feet of snow. The Coast Range has
lost almost all of its snow while the Cascades are still white with it.
K4TO had the best weather of the lot with more on the way. I bet he'll
be stringing more antennas soon.
The forest is filling with more birds. The rodents are awake
trimming the new growth. A pileated woodpecker is chipping his way into
one of the cedar trees. They're finding the standing dead trees left
after the thin. The first berry bushes are blooming too.
Until next week stay well & 73,
Kevin. KD5ONS
