This is the post-net report for the most famous Sunday Night Net held by the Loudoun Amateur Radio Group on 2-Meters FM. Tonight the net was held on the 146.700 MHz (-) (No tone ) at 8:30 PM sharp. KN4AWT (Jim) was NCS for the evening.

Those who checked in were:

• KN4AWT – Jim (NCS)
• KC5CG – Gump
• N2CV – Al*
• KN4YOV – John*
• N4PD – Paul
• WA4TXE – Dave

* Signifies that the station was unintelligible or couldn’t be heard after checkin.

Conditions on the WA4TXE repeater were challenging. Only those within the Leesburg, VA area where able to be heard reliably by NCS. Dave, the owner of the repeater, was monitoring on the control line and explained that he is aware of the issues and needs to go onsite to make adjustments to the antenna connection. The net was closed at 8:49 PM.

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.
