A very short net tonight with lots of QRN. Checkins from K3WD, KT9N, and N1RM, with KE4S on net control. S5-S6 noise level at my station, Bill had the strongest signal, Chris and Rick barely readable. Thanks for checking in; see you next week. 73 de Dave KE4S

Opened the net on schedule. Three checkins tonight: K3WD, N1RM, and KE4S. Good signals around, and band noise low. We discussed the projects we are working – antennas, antennas, antennas! We just cannot seem to have enough of them. Closed the net at 8:30. Feel free to join us next Tuesday at 8:00PM EDT on 3545KHz. 73 de Dave KE4S
