Good Evening,
Conditions were a bit better on forty meters than they were on
twenty. QSB was faster there but signals were stronger. Even though
the sun is still blank forty meters bounced east of the Mississippi.
Weak and warbly, but copy was 50% or better. There was more band
noise. I didn't hear thunderstorms but it did sound like wind. There
were ghost signals where I could not copy a letter, to QRM who could not
hear any of us. However, propagation is only part of what we do. I get
to hear about antenna projects, gardening, birding, yard work, house
work, painting, weeding, dog walking, and many other fascinating
topics. It is rarely the same from week to week. It reminds me of
going to the old country store with the pot belly stove. Folks would
gather around it and tell stories about this and that. Something I have
not heard on ECN is one about calf pulling. Just hasn't come up I guess.
