Wow, great signals this evening. 20 meters was wide open across the North American continent. I felt like a contester giving out 5NN over and over. Only a few folks were not that strong. There was some QSB from the East so Dan needed a relay through Bill to hear me. I could hear both of them just fine but Dan could not hear me well enough for solid copy. There were salmon fisherman spearing their catch left and right around us.

40 meters was also good but there were piggies flying everywhere. Too bad these guys work just opposite ECN or I would use FP # 765 more often.

It was good to hear from all of you. I met some new folks and reaquainted myself with a few others. Tom was having way too much fun to make him stop so we relayed back to him :) Thanks to everyone for joining us and to everyone who helped getting some of the weaker stations back to the NCS of the moment. I know we missed a few folks but I am not sure if they were pigs or salmon. Too many species out there this evening to make sense of it all. As ever any errors are mine, please tell me and I'll fix them.

It was fun as always so please stop back and see us again soon,
   73,
       Kevin.  KD5ONS  (Net Control Operator 5th Class)
