Good Evening,
I must admit the census this year is so efficient that I have been counted
four times thus far :) I just got another visit by a census taker to be
counted again. Three times by visits and once by the mail. I wonder when I
will be fully counted? This census taker mentioned she had been to some houses
three times and had them on her list again.
The nets were not great today. The propagation was weaker than normal on
both bands. The forty meter net was especially tough due to the seasonal
storms and the solar activity. Plenty of lightning crashes made listening to
my own sending tough. Twenty meters had some QSB but signals were not bad at
all. However, some of the regularly strong ops were much weaker today while
the normally weaker ones were stronger.
On to the lists =>
On 14050 kHz at 2200z:
KL7QOW - Mike - AK - K3 - 3144
K1THP - Dave - CT - K3 - 686
AB9V - Mike - IN - K3 - 398
W0RSR - Mike - CO - K2 - 5767
W0CZ - Ken - ND - K3 - 457
NO8V - John - MI - K3 - 820
K6DGW - Fred - CA - K3 - 642
On 7045.5 kHz at 0000z:
AE6IC - Fred - CA - K3 - 2241
K0DTJ - Brian - CA - K3 - 4113
AE6IC - Fred - CA - K3 - 2241
Hopefully the sun has injected sufficient ions into our ionosphere to
improve propagation over the week. I will try 6 meters by reattaching my loop
and monitoring the calling frequency. It is a fun band when it is open. I
will fix my spare HF antenna so I can monitor 10 meters on another rig. Now to
finish folding clothes and making my bed. The hummingbirds need to be fed
before dark too.
Until next week stay well,
73,
