Thursday, January 1, 2026.

40 m: Friday, 0100 - 0155 UTC, 7044 kHz.

Notes:
- De AA7FV: After the QNF I was called by WD6BNR (589) but not SSN. An excellent net.  All signals were a genuine 599 or better into Arizona, but some with QSB. This couldn't have been a better start to 2026. Thanks everyone, and have a great New Year 2026.  See you next time.
- De WX7V: Agree,  Very good net tonight, 40M was great coast to coast! Happy New Year to all!
- De AA5ES: Had some QSB with some dropping way down at times but good copy for the most part. Happy New Year to all!
- De KA5TJS: Band started going long after the first round and loosing TX and LA.
- De KO4WFP, KT5LA: Unavailable.

40 m: Friday, 0100 - 0155 UTC, 7044 kHz.

Notes:
- De WA4FAT: A thoroughly enjoyable SSN with outstanding band conditions and strong signals all the way around. Thank you to everyone for joining us this evening. A belated Happy New Year from your NCS, and we wishes for all the best.
- De AA7FV: Armchair copy on everyone.  Perfect conditions into Arizona tonight.
- De KO4WFP: Great net tonight - big group and good propagation!
- De N2TNN, WX7V: Unavailable.

Thursday, January 15, 2026.

40 m: Friday, 0100 - 0155 UTC, 7044 kHz.

Notes:
- De KA5TJS: Wow, strange band tonight!! QSB on most but sure has been better! CU all next week I hope.
- De KO4WFP: Stations with limited copy I heard well on UT SDR. I was surprised at how good signals tonight were compared with earlier on the bands. I worked a K3Y/4 shift for SKCC from 5-6 PM EST and it was rough.
- De AI5BE: It sure was a lot of chaos going on !! I finally heard Bill on the SDR along with a few others, and the only one that came in strong on radio was Teri KO4WFP at 599+. Everyone else was below the noise level here.
- De WA4FAT: 40 Meters had gone quite long by Net time and I was barely able to hear the close-in stations. Sorry for the early exit... All in all, very poor conditions even with the assistance of the Utah SDR.
- De WX7V: Unavailable.

Thursday, January 22, 2026.

40 m: Friday, 0100 - 0155 UTC, 7044 kHz.

Notes:
- De W1SFR: Well, this had to be the worst Net ever for me. Oh, well maybe next time will be better. I guess with all the Solar activity, we're still getting hammered on the bands. I didn't quite know what to do about hearing only one station but Darrel to the rescue with his QSP's.
- De AA7FV: Right at the end, I heard K0CDJ calling, RST 579,  (Bill in Minnesota) but he didn't join the net. Unfortunately conditions continued to be very poor tonight.  The geomagnetic index shot up to Kp=5+, G1 storm level, right before our net.  The solar proton flux leveled off to just below S1 storm level, rather than continuing to drop.  The sun continued to splutter out flares just below radio blackout level.
- De KT5LA: Steve, I’m sure that with only we west coasters (except N2TNN)  checking in, it didn’t help you as NCO! Yes, once again, a well positioned rhombic saved the day.
- De N2TNN: Sorry but no real copy on any station.  ROTTEN NIGHT!!! AA7FV was the only station I could copy and thanks for the QSP. Sri guys, better luck next week. This has been a terrible week for any net check-ins.

40 m: Friday, 0100 - 0155 UTC, 7044 kHz.

Notes:
- De KO4WFP: I had so much fun in the net tonight. (After we signed off, I was grinning from ear to ear and could barely contain my glee!) I agree with Allen's comment about big signals. The propagation in Savannah, GA was wonderful. Thanks for Darrel's very-capable QSP assists and everyone's patience as we ran longer than usual.
- De AA5ES: It was so nice to hear most of the net tonight!!

Thursday, February 5, 2026.

40 m: Friday, 0100 - 0155 UTC, 7044 kHz.

Notes:
- De AA7FV: An excellent net tonight.  As heard from Arizona into my receiver, conditions were superb with armchair copy on everyone.  No websdr needed.  With 10 net participants, I think there are 90 possible propagation paths between stations (allowing for path A-B not necessarily being the same as B-A)  - did I get that right?  Tonight most of those 90 paths, although not all, were reasonably good.  The situation was helped further by some websdr reception.  (Further indication that 40m conditions were good tonight:  a station from 9A3 had answered my preamble before the net.) It would be great if conditions were always as good as they were tonight.
- De KO4WFP: Great net tonite, Darrel, and thanks for being NCS. FB conditions - It is nice when propagation plays nice!
- De WA4FAT: What a terrific turnout for the SSN tonight! And an excellent job by NCS, as usual. No relays needed this session, for a change - just a pleasure to participate.
- De NI4E: Nice net last eve. Always enjoy hearing the music from a fine group of OPs.
- De AA5ES, WX7V: Unavailable.

40 m: Friday, 0100 - 0155 UTC, 7044 kHz.

Notes:
- De W1SFR: Bill - WA4FAT reported storms and had to QRT. WA2QOF Calling Darrel. Don't think was trying to sign in to the net.
- De AA7FV: Steve reported WA2QOF calling me.  I heard a station doubling with someone else, which may have been WA2QOF calling, but I didn't copy his call at all. Apart from WA2QOF, I had armchair copy on everyone this evening.
- De N2TNN: Wow, that went down hill fast. The first round was great and I was hoping the west coast would improve but at 8:20 all was usual, at 8:25 everyone was gone but I heard Darrel QSP to Roy and then ZIP... Smooth flow and easy copy until the band died.
- De KE9BHN: Just listening for now.

Thursday, March 5, 2026.

40 m: Friday, 0100 - 0155 UTC, 7044 kHz.

Notes:
- De AA7FV: Another great net tonight.  QSB on most stations, but perfect copy on everyone for nearly all of the time.
- De KO4WFP: Band was rough tonight. Very noisy here in Savannah, GA. (Lots of band noise on UT SDR as well as net progressed.)
- De KA5TJS: Not real good tonight with QSB and QRN here but heard most.
- De KE9BHN: Hey all. I was on air with you, but I didn't jump in fast enough, and then the SSN ended...
