We had a total of 16 check ins this week (including the NCS). Signals were good all around. Thanks to Eric, WB9JNZ for the relay assist this evening. 80M was in good condition. Very nice hearing from the new check ins and hope to see all of you again. The net concluded at 9:39 PM ET.

In spite of the recent frequency change, the turnout continues to be very encouraging. We ended up on 3803 kHz tonight at Carl's K8NU suggestion/observation that 3803 cleared up just before 9pm ET last week, and it appeared to do so again this week. We did hear another weak (to us) conversation that started to get stronger later in the net, so if 80M continues to improve we may not be able to hold 3803, either. Time will tell.

I'll continue to monitor adjacent frequencies to see if we can find another one close by that will work better for everyone. In the meantime we will continue to attempt to meet on 3806 kHz. If you go to https://netlogger.org at the net starting time, you should see the frequency we are using that evening.

Looking ahead, we will NOT meet on Christmas Eve or New Year's eve, so this was the last 80M Elecraft SSB Net of this year.

Happy Holidays and see you next year!

73,

-- Dave, N8SBE
