Hearing no requests for changes, this is the final log for my last 40M run in this winter season. I removed one duplicate (the original from WC7S) in favor of the "insurance" run.?

N2TNN preliminary log 4-4-25
It started out great for the first 15 minutes and the the MR, QSB started to play games.I think I got them all right and I appreciate all the call sign repeats. Last call was about 10 after 10 and I moved down near my call frequency 3.557 and nothing. The 80 meter band has not been friendly lately.
See how this goes and let me know

Thanks for hanging in there for us.

All you HOUND dogs:
?
I¡¯ll be one of your two foxii on 80 meters Thursday night, along with Scott, KW4NJA in GA. ?I'll be operating from Chesapeake area of Virginia between 0100Z and 0230Z and within +/- 10Khz
between 3.550-3.570 MHz ?I¡¯ll be running my K3 throttled down to 5 watts into full 160 meter loop up 55 feet.
?
I will be posting QSOs to the Fritz map (, so you can check the status of your pelt.
?
I will start running split, up 1+?and may change to simplex toward the end of the hunt.?My exchange will be RST, VA, Dean, 5W. ?I will expect
the usual RST SPC Name PWR from you.

I¡¯m sure everyone is aware to the damaging weather in the Midwest this evening and it¡¯s expected to get to me tomorrow evening. There could be static crashed so if I give a partial call please repeat until

W4CMG Preliminary Log for 40M Hunt 04/01
Another interesting night in the woods! A few fumbles with the log entry when I hit "enter" to soon. Sorry, Dale WC7S - your first QSO landed on the map with your "alias" the first time around. It was corrected before the next op, but there needs? be an "oops" button that the fox can hit on the map (Fritz ? :) )?
?
I went simplex just shy of 20 minutes before the end, when 40M got even noisier, and there was new some competition from a station who started calling CQ. Wish I could say it worked, but not quite. Apologies for the partial calls that I could never capture in the noise, and those I heard calling, but never heard their exchange.??

K9DRP 40M preliminary log 04/01
Well, it started out pretty good, if you discount my computer freezing
up around 01:13. Turns out I had hit the "`" key in the call section
which made my keyer produce a continuous carrier. I was scratching my
head for a few frantic moments! But everyone waited patiently for me
to get it corrected. Thanks
The noise and QSB continuously worsened as the hunt went on. You start
out shooting fish in a barrel and end up digging hard to pull out a
signal by the end of the hunt. There were a couple of stations at the
end I just couldn't pull out and I apologize for that.
Thanks to all who gave it a shot. Let me know of my errors:

Subject: [qfox] W4CMG 40m fox announcement for Wednesday , April 2 GMT (Tuesday April 1st evening)? ¡¯ll be one of your two foxii in the 40 meter hunt on Tuesday evening, April 1 (April 2 GMT date), along with Don, K9DRP in IL. Look for me to be handing out pelts from Nashville, TN, grid EM66qd, between 0100 and 0230 Z and between 7030 and 7050?kHz. I¡¯ll be running a Yaesu FT-991-A turned down to 5W into an inverted vee G5RV up 35 feet. I plan to be posting dots to the Fritz map () so you can check your QSO, as long as technology cooperates. I will start running split, up 1+?and may change to simplex toward the end of the hunt.?
Exchange is the usual RST SPC Name PWR (RST TN CATHY 5W). I will repeat your call at the end of my exchange, so PLEASE be sure that I got it right before sending your full exchange.
Some requests:
* Faster doesn't mean better. I will be running at 20 - 22 WPM, and will slow when responding for those who need it.
* If you hear me call another hound, please QRX until the QSO is finished.?
* If I¡¯m running split, please don¡¯t bunch up, because I¡¯ll be listening outside the bunches.
* Same for simplex, please don¡¯t zero-beat me.?
* If technology cooperates, you can check the Fritz map to see whether I've logged you. If you see dots for "Worked W4CMG", and none of them are yours, then a repeat QSO is welcome.
Looking forward to handing out anther round of pelts for this season!
Good luck!

I will be listening up to as high as you're willing to try, so take advantage of that range. ?I doubt that I will run simplex, unless things get awful slow.?

I hope to give out pelts from coast to coast and beyond!
