Greetings Bill,
Good opening to VK and ZL but it arrived with some delay relative to last Sunday.

05:48z VK2GWK, Henk. Started at 55 and peaked at 59+ - both ways.

06:41z EA/G4HMG, John. 59 on the meter with QSB.
06:45z VK2GWK, Henk, back again after having QSYed briefly to work PA-friends. Now 57 - 55.
07:02z G3LUW, Brian. 55 here. Got 56-57
07:14z G4YZE, Bill in Bolton. Not fully Q5 here and rather weak, but Bill had me 54.
Pertti worked some European stations which I could not copy here due to the skip distance.

Many thanks to Bob Butler for the following report :-
Joe, W0TBC is back home and ran the net today. Great to hear him at his operating position. Checkins were Jack KF5BD 5/7, Jim W1QUO 5/5, Joe AF1E 5/5 and Pertti EA7GSU. Both Jim and Joe W0TBC talked to Pertti who had a signal 5/9 to both stations. I could tell he was there but no contact.
73, Bob WB7RQG
Also from Pertti EA7GSU :-
US intercontinental net:
Joe, W0TBC was the net controller and in good form. I received him 3/2
with QSB a bit up and a lot down! Others connected were AF1E with 59 and the same with Jim, W1QUO. "Welcome back" -wishes from this side of the pond conveyed to Joe. Bob, WB7RQG identified but not yet readable! It will come.
Greetings from the net and special ones from Joe to all net-activists!
73 Pertti
Messages Received.
From President Pertti EA7GSU :-
The ANZO area is having "local" chatting on Sunday mornings on 7115kHz
at 0500z. The net members have been heard in Europe and with good antennas at both ends a participation by "outside" members should be possible..... The Europeans again are developing their round table on Tuesday mornings on 7180kHz at 0700z. At that hour the medium distance communication is possible and all members are welcome to take a seat.....
(Listen out for Pertti, also for John EA/G4HMG.)
I am afraid David (EA5ALK) has closed the Friday net ........
The American transcontinental net on 14288kHz at 1800z can be
participated in by Europeans, some state side stations have booming signals. Traffic density is increasing. Do use the traditional ROAR frequencies for other traffic as well so that they are occupied by "friendly folks".
