Called the net on 3670 to be clear of traffic just above our normal frequency. Signals good, but some QRN as background at S7. We talked a bit about the weather in the west, and about our antenna work. My tower is likely to be back in service in the next couple of days, so I should have it ready before winter storms arrive. This net is open for anyone to check in – please join us every Thursday at 8:00PM.
Closed 0015Z

10m – on 28.405 MHz
No net tonight. My wire antennas do not tune 10 meters, and nobody picked it up.

Since this is the prime season for antenna work, we took a couple rounds to discuss the progress on our individual projects. We are all hoping to finish the projects soon to be ready for the Fall and Winter seasons.

Called the net as scheduled at 8PM, We had four of us aboard tonight: W5ODJ (John), KT9N (Chris), K3WD (Bill), and KE4S (Dave). The band was not real good, but workable – lightning storm about 15 miles away. We chatted about the weather, our keying, and my finally getting a wire antenna back in the air after a couple months of withdrawal symptoms from lack of CW. Closed the net at 8:34. Please join us next week at the regularly scheduled time. 73 de Dave KE4S.

Called the weekly slow cw net at 8:00PM with only two check ins – K3WD (Bill) and me. We had a nice 30 minute qso discussing family visits and vacations.  Also, along with all the other ham activities this coming weekend, don’t forget that this weekend is the Summer Stew Perry 160 meter cw contest.  I hope to get a few more South America contacts after the club meeting and the ham fest.  73 de Dave KE4S

We had three check ins tonight on 80 meters, with quiet band conditions: KT9N Chris, K3WD Bill, and KE4S Dave. Nice chat and reminded each other about the club meeting coming up on Saturday. See you there!

Opened the net at 8:00PM as usual.  Only Bill K8SYH and Dave KE4S made it tonight.  Conditions were very poor so we chatted briefly and closed down.  Hope to see a better turn out next week.  No 10 meter session tonight.
