Good Evening,
   I do believe forty meters will be the death of me!  Well, at least of my 
hearing ;)  It was very loud tonight.  The second half of the net had most 
operators working beneath the noise.  There seemed to be a long line of 
prospective check ins too.  I just got back from a walk with the black cat.  
Well, I walked he sort of squirmed around as I carried him.  We got to the edge 
of the property where we could see into the mountains toward the ocean.  I put 
him down and he went home. 
   The twenty meter net ran for half an hour whereas the second net went for a 
little over an hour.  With band noise came propagation.  Funny thing how that 
works.  On 20 there were many reports of QSB but I only heard it once.  No QSB 
on 40 but there were both of the other two unfortunate Q codes.  Before the 
net, as I was eating, I was listening to 40 meters and heard many voices.  I 
did not hear them while I was running the net however.  I wonder where they 
were located?

Argh!  Too many phone calls and interruptions.  I want to get this off and get 
ready for the coming week.  The weather promises to be very nice.  I am going 
to enjoy the remaining summer days.  Tomorrow I am going to take a hike and see 
if the intermittent springs are running.  If not I will hike further until they 
push out of the ground lower down the hillside.  As ever if there are any 
errors please send me an email with the corrections I will amend my notes and 
the database.
   Until next week stay well,
      73,
         Kevin.  KD5ONS  (Net Control Operator 5th Class)
