Well I admit I am slow to get things off my mind....Ah summer...In Idaho summer is a time to make hay, enjoy those 100 deg.+ days ( To many this year so far) Enjoy the 6M E season openings (To few so far this year ) But a good summer at that. Grandkids around, open Jeep rides and so on....
I have been working on getting all my old and not so old QSL's caught up and all my logs uploaded to LoTw....think I am good there, now just need some new ones so looking foreword to fall and winter for some great DXpeditions that will be on, hope you feel the same.
I have been looking at many online comments about the ARRL raising the dues to $49 a year. To be very honest with you I have been on the fence with the ARRL for many years. I am not a life member but have been a member for 40 years so I guess I can sound off if I want. It will be hard for me to spit out almost $50 a year for the soso...QST and as far as I am concerned the constant dumbing down of our hobby. So with that I guess I am still on the fence will decide in May when my dues come around.
Lets talk 6M for a bit....How has your E season been ? If you live in the East or So. East I bet you will say great, if you live in the West I bet you say soso....I truly do have some high points but for the most part it has been SLOW. I try to keep track of 6m QSO's by year and so far I am about 45 below average. But...I did work Europe for the first time ever on 6 so no complaints....Well not many !!
I hope you all are having a great summer in the Northern Hemisphere, and a great winter in the Southern. Good DX, get on and have fun enjoy what you have....73 Jim K7JAN
