Good Evening,
Rain started slowly this morning and continued all day. Not much
overall but the forest smells much better. There is a spicy scent in
the air, I imagine it is from all the cedar in the ground. After a warm
to hot week these cooler days feel nice but presage autumn. So I will
be out cutting firewood soon which takes its toll on my hands. You will
all notice I am sure.
The sun has been more active all week as have the summer storms.
The mixture of the two modify signals with QRN and QSB. Working into
Alaska has been interesting. Depending on the day and time the auroral
oval is right overhead for that state. Reciprocal signals go out the
window under these conditions. One day the noise is extreme to me while
on the next day it is on the other end. The quiet of the forest is
soothing after those contacts.
Please join us tomorrow.
14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday (3 PM PDT Sunday)
7045 kHz at 0100z Monday (6 PM PDT Sunday)
73,
Kevin. KD5ONS
