  I was on 432  at about 04:00z last night listening and only heard two 
partials. Conditions were horrible. More than the usual QRN locally. I plan 
to try to be on tonight. It depends on how wet the array is. I am working 
on going portable on 2 meters from DM15. The stations is coming together 
nicely.

Happy Holidays fellow moon people,
         A quick report: I heard K4EME weakly and K9SLQ quite loud at times 
on 432 around 4:30z. I was able to hear my own echoes fairly well.  CQ's 
were not able to rouse anyone, but conditions were not perfect and antennas 
were wet.
