Welcome to the micro-climates of the Pacific Northwest Coast! Come inland to the Willamette Valeey where Portland is and get a different micro-climate. Today was brutally hot - I'm staying inside where the a/cgoes full time. San Francisco Bay area has the same bunch of micro-climates -- SF itself can be cold (winter coats at a Sunday afternoon outdooe concer in th park) while 15 miles away in the Concord area (where famuly lives) it's 100 degrees.... >Also saw an S-38C in another shop.

You can always put something like that in my ham shack..... >CU all next weekend. >Will miss the net today (cruise on the Willamette). This retired life >is sooo tough! I've been retired 11 years and can't figure out where I ever had the time to work a paying job. -- 73 de K2ASP - Phil Kane Elecraft K2/100 5402 From a Clearing in the Silicon Forest Beaverton (Washington County) Oregon _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
