Lou:

Will look for Scott from Branch County tomorrow.

I typically have no trouble finding and working him in the QSO Party each
year that I do it.

I plan to be on 40 during roughly the first half of the contest, into the
early evening, and will then switch over to 80 meters.

Will probably do mainly phone, because it seems to be mostly a phone
contest, but will certainly try to get some CW in there as well.

Tom,

Good luck in the QsO party. I'll look for you. My buddy W8CUB will be on
from cold Water again so I'll be looking for him too.

I need to learn split on the K3. I usually do it with the XIT but that's not
the best way, I know.  73.
