That's quite an accomplishment.<br /><br />Storms came through North-Central Ohio yesterday afternoon. Lot of damage. We lost power for 6 hours.<br /><br />73 Mikerecumbent conspiracy theoristhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06534820082655384780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156518320909350372.post-7880123282178817042012-06-30T06:55:10.325-07:002012-06-30T06:55:10.325-07:00Hello Paul,

Amazingly, I hear DX down on the lower portions too. <br /><br />Last night we had a SEVERE storm with winds clocked at 78 MPH reported from the airport. There are thousands of people without power. There are thousands of trees and power lines down. It could be long time before things return to normal. <br /><br />Fortunately, we've been spared. <br /><br />Living near the state capitol has advantages. The Governor is well taken care of, but unfortunately, the capitol grounds are a disaster.<br /><br />I consider myself extremly fortunate with temperatures expected to be over 100 F again today. I hope and pray severe winds don't return this evening.<br /><br />I'll post some pictures of the neighborhood soon.Jspikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751088160139882564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156518320909350372.post-58386272560904569792012-06-30T02:40:59.845-07:002012-06-30T02:40:59.845-07:00Hi John, a very nice list. yes, 40 meter is my fav...Hi John, a very nice list. yes, 40 meter is my favourite band for rag chew qspo's and qrp. My favourite spot is 7.032 Mhz. I do have a few strong beacons from Russia I belief around and on 7.040 MHz. With autumn I put up a 40 m / 80 m dipole again. Now when cycle 24 is going down, hihger bands as 10 and 12 m will be useless in the coming years. It's really summer at your place. We had a wet June, a lot of rain and too cold for the time of year. Now it is up and down with better temperatures. 73 PaulPaul Stam PAØKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13472039726489965017noreply@blogger.com
