Good Evening,
Both nets went well this evening. There were a few times where I only
heard a steady tone though. I need to somehow break up check ins a little
so I can hear more call signs instead of the steady howl. Sounds good but
it is unproductive. North Dakota is still cold. Not like this is earth
shattering news but I still get a kick out of hearing about where I have
many relatives. One of these days I need to get back up there again.
This report will take a few days to be posted since qth.net is down. I
tried both the Elecraft Reflector and QRP-l; both of them bounce my
messages. I now know where my announcement ran off to because I was not
using this computer to write it. Or rather I did send it from this one
only to shut the computer down and go back to the computer in the warm
part of the house. One of these days I will move this computer to the new
work area but currently it is not to be. I will have to move everything
when I rebuild that area when the dry season starts so I keep this
computer in a stable area. The tree did not fall on this room. Or rather
nothing penetrated the roof over it. One of the few rooms in the house
with no damage.

Tonight we passed the 3000 check in mark! Thank you very much for your
support. Without you all calling me it would not be as much fun. I do
appreciate what ECN has become. We've change a little over the years but
what I was trying to do in the beginning has evolved only slightly.
Procedures have changed, times have changed, but there is something about
the nets which seems to draw folks back. I even get comments from folks
who only read my weekly notes. I will keep running the nets as long as
you want them. I think they may go on for quite a long time to come. I
do appreciate your input.
Since this cannot be sent out this evening I'll simply leave it on my
computer and send it when the QTH mailing system is feeling better. When
there are a lot of messages showing up on the Elecraft Reflector you will
read this message and my weekly announcement.
Until then 73,
Kevin. KD5ONS (Net Control Operator 5th Class)
