Good Evening,
Both bands were productive. There was little QSB on twenty meters.
It showed up later on 40 meters. I turned off VOX before the second net
to loosen up my fingers. When I pressed it again I did not turn VOX
back on. I found out when no one answered any of my calls :( The red,
normally blinking, light was out of my sight line. I checked antennas,
coax connections, and scratched my head. Then I saw the non-blinking
light. Once I turned VOX back on folks could hear me. Then I worked
Idaho, Kentucky, Arizona, and California. QSB came in two varieties:
slow and a flutter. Signal reports were S5 to S8 or S4 to S9. Noise was
moderate on twenty meters but as I started the second net the noise rose.
