OK, I'm QRT. Either the storm is circling or it's waves of storms, strike finder is picking up more activity
getting closer and I can hear strong static crashes on 40M so back to unplugging everything. Anyone else wants to NC, jump right in. |

Hope the net is going/went OK. Good call on my part.
Lightning detector saw more than 200 strikes within 5 miles of me in the past 35 minutes. Crazy. |

Thanks for relay.
Good net, 5 plus NC for 6. 40m was a bit rough for me tonight, 20m was sounding better, but it worked out well. I do love a good thunderstorm, but I think about it a lot more now that I have an antenna in the air. |

I should be present to NC tonight. No storms in the forecast and not a cloud in the sky so
odds are good I can be on the air. I'll do the usual countdown on 40M with a 20M check after the 2330Z reminder and then we'll decide from there. |

It's definitely that time of the year. We currently are having a break from out monsoon so no clouds today.
Hopefully it comes back, I'd rather not have forest fires and miss a little radio time than the opposite. On the plus side all the rain last week enhanced my ground and I'm getting 1:1 on the tuner for 40M for the first time in at least a year. |

Little net tonight... three stations + NC.
Bands were a bit rough as well, but I could hear everyone. Hopefully conditions are better next week. |

NC got steadily better throughout the net here. I copied none of the preamble, by the end I was copying about 80% of what you were sending.

I will try to be on tomorrow night. I will be portable, so I'll see how it goes. I probably won't be able to check here for band, so I'll bounce between the two to find it.

I haven't been able to copy the net warnings thus far, I've seen a few characters decode that look like parts of words from the warning but that's it. I had good copy into centex like usual though.

Went better than expected, seem like things improved after the net started.
Four stations + NC tonight. I kept the NC side brief in case we lost the band suddenly and I think everyone else did as well, so it made for a short net. |

I'll be present to NC tonight, weather permitting. Supposedly only a 20% change of rain this afternoon,
but they said that yesterday and we had a deluge. This will be my first post-lightning strike net so we'll find out just how well everything still works. |

Distant thunder and clouds everywhere but the last lightning strike detected was 9 miles away an hour ago.
First reminder out at 2300Z on 7120. We'll try 20M at 2330Z in case it's better. |

on 20M asking for reports. Sent 2330Z reminder on 40M asking for QSY to 14067.5 as well.
ETA: Starting to look like 20M is better than 40M since two of you have copy on 20M and no copy on 40M. ETA #2: We're going with 20M. Tonight's frequency is 14067.5 +1500 everyone! |

20m is pretty squirrelly. Lots of fast QSB. But probably better than 40m.

I copied everyone, at least partially.
Total net was six stations + NC. The last station was pure ghost print on my end, literally just had a blank waterfall with decode appearing. First time in a while I didn't have 100% on everyone, a few of you were down in the 80% range and I had a really deep fade kill the first half of one response here. I doubt 40M would have been much better for most. Maybe we'll have better luck next week. |
