Hey Chris L! It rained last night and part of this morning and there is actual water flowing in the brook again! I don't go down there much these days....deer ticks and killer mosquitos all over the place :o These ain't your garden variety skeeters we have here....these are the size of C5's out of Westover AFB a short distance from Skeepmuck River

Just tuned in at 1748, to hear the end of "Dreaming" by Smallpools, followed by ID at 1750 UTC.  S7 signal in New York with strong audio.

Hi everybody!
Thanks for tuning us in!
CHU on 7850 was doing pretty well for a change so we figured we'd switch on the Viking II!
Gonna sign off in a few.
Don't forget to email us for the Summer Doldrums 2016 eQSL.
