General Observation On 40mb(7000-7200kHz) On SSB Mode:
There has been no motor boat noise today as observed by me this morning on the above mentioned frequency range and also have not found any abnormal type of noise on the band as per my monitoring.But  this is the noisiest winter season so far in my nearly 15 years or so of the SSB band monitoring in my place.

7050kHz lsb The Hembel Belgaum Net:
VU2KOC made a QSO with 4S7AVR OM Noel Harold Lokuge  from Colombo,Sri Lanka just before the start of the net on 0700IST.I could not copy 4S7AVR here.Lots of checkings as usual on Belgaum Net today also.Some of them I could copy comfortably.VU2ACC,VU2RZA(around 0714 IST) from Chennai with strong signal as usual,VU2CCK(0716 IST),VU2VMJ(0718 IST),VU2RRX(0720 IST),VU2JGI from Gandhinagar with good signal as usual (0729 IST),VU2DH(?) from Podicherry(?) (0732 IST) and many more checking stations I could not note down some of the stations's callsign correctly.

7130kHz lsb Net(Rajkot Net ?):
From 0758 IST onwards,I could copy VU2DED OM Ajaya Gupta from New Delhi ,surprisingly strong signal along with VU2SMN OM Suhas Samant From Kolhapur weak.But like yesterday could not copy A41LD from Muscut,Oman.

7065kHz lsb Net:
From 0804 IST onwards, I heard on 7065kHz lsb strong signal of VU2OO OM Guptaji from Gune,9N1CA  OM Arun Singhji (Pokhra,Nepal), and also on the net VU3JAT (OM Rakesh Choudhury?),VU2ZKC  OM Kuldeep with weak signal and VU2DED with surprisingly weak signal. Later I also heard VU3YSU  with fair  signal.

7145kHz lsb:
From 0831 IST onwards I did monitor 7145kHz.I found VU2OWB OM Abijit Mondal from Khaspur,West Bengalwith reasonably strong signal,,VU3OKT  with good signal.Later both of them went on skip,could not copy each other.

There may slight error in mentioning the accurate time etc and mentioning callsigns etc here and there.I am sorry for that.

More such reports/observations etc soon.
