[Elecraft] Elecraft 80M SSB Net Report
3803 kHz, 9PM ET Sunday (0100Z Monday). Thanks to the following check ins (w) and relays (rel): Call State Radio/Amp Name 1 N8SBE OHK4D Dave 2 AK4TF GAFlex 6400/KPA500 Tony (w) 3 WB9JNZ ILFTdx101d/KPA1500 Eric (rel),(w) 4 W9PCS WIK4D/KPA500Paul (rel),(w) 5 K1NW RIK4D/KPA500Brian (rel),(w) 6 K1DIH CTK4D/Tokyo Hi-PowerBrian (w) 7 K1ND MIK4/KPA500 Jan (w) 8 WM6P GAK4D/KPA1500 Steve (rel),(w) 9 K8NU OHK4D/KPA1500 Carl (w),(c/o) 10 WW4JF TNK3S/KPA500John (w) (Entries with (c/o) indicate a 'one and done' station that checked out during the 1st round. (n/h) failed to respond during subsequent rounds.) We had a total of 10 check ins this week (including the NCS). Very nice hearing from everyone tonight, in spite of the fact that the NCS was not audible to most of the net, since I was running 100W into a vertical from my RV in Ohio. I hope to see all of you again. The net concluded at 09:26 PM ET. Sorry for the abbreviated version of the net. Conditions were poor this evening, as the band was recovering from a massive CME earlier in the weekend, and a solar flare that occurred earlier today. We have a really great group of folks checking in, and I encourage everyone in the Midwest and adjoining areas to check in next week. As a reminder, if you go to https://netlogger.org at the net starting time and look for the 80M Elecraft SSB Net, you should see the frequency we are using that evening, if we must QSY again due to busy frequencies. 73, -- Dave, N8SBE __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
[Elecraft] Elecraft 80M SSB Net Announcement
Please join us on 3803kHz plus (not minus) QRM (see the Netlogger discussion, below), 9PM ET Sunday (0100Z Monday). Note that the net stays on the same local time, when we switch back and forth to/from Daylight time, so the UTC time changes, but not the local time. As daylight persists more into the evening, we may find it more difficult to conduct the net at its regular time. For the time being, let's keep it at 9PM ET, as that is getting late on a 'school night' for a lot of folks, as it is. Your net control this week will be Dave, N8SBE. Note that I'm portable and running 100w this week, so relays will be much appreciated. The group that meets on 3803 kHz before us has been wrapping up operations promptly at or before 9PM ET. There is also another group that normally comes on at 10PM ET, so we need to make sure to wrap up operations by 10PM ET. If any stations wish to continue past that time, please QSY to a clear frequency. If you are a US General class licensee, please ensure that your dial is accurately calibrated and that your transmitter/amplifier combination is clean and free of splatter, since we will be operating LSB within 3 kHz of the lower band edge of the 80M US General class band. I'm using Netlogger, so if you go to netlogger.org and look for the 80M Elecraft SSB Net, you will be able to see the exact frequency we've settled on for the evening. If we find 3803 kHz busy, we will move UP the band a few kHz, so we can stay in the 80M US General class band. Hope to see you this evening on the net. 73, -- Dave, N8SBE __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
