Some kinda broad-band sloper with a couple of (radials?) Phil found in
some magazine or another for 80.

NA ver. 8.* that only sent serial number and calls

fumble fingers on keyer paddle

Sarted with name Blaze.  That came from Phil's pot-bellied pig that has
the run of the house (and shack).

OINK OINK - SQUEAL

"What?  Who?"

Nuzzle Nuzzle, chew chew. (my shoelace tips)

The enhanced low band conditions at this time of year are
due to the winter solstice and lasts about 2 weeks each
side of December 21.  Even during the middle of the daylight
hours the first hop can hit darkness on northern polar paths.
In Oregon we are working JAs and Eastern Europe between
2 and 3 PM local on 40 meters via short path.
