Good Evening,
Conditions were strange today. I was able to work all over the place but
where my signal landed was spotty. As far east as Connecticut and Georgia but
not much in between. I did get Michigan and Colorado but the West Coast seemed
to be favored. I expect a lot of folks were otherwise engaged but the band
noise on 40 meters was not high. This normally means propagation is not good
during the summer months because I should be hearing storms.
I need to get my boots on and a warm jacket so when I climb up the mountain
to the lookout I can stay warm. The temperature only rose to 62 today but now
it is getting cooler again and there may be a mist from the ocean. Hopefully
my view of all the local fireworks displays will not be blocked by low clouds
or rain. The forecast is for another day of chilly temperatures but then we
will go into the 80s. That will be nice. I can stop burning a fire to stay
warm for a week or so.
On to the lists =>

Hopefully the propagation will improve for next week's nets. Then we can
see who will come out of the woodwork and join in.
Until next week stay well,
73,
Kevin. KD5ONS (Net Control Operator 5th Class)
