Hi Lloyd,

Great work.  I played, and I mean just played, a little and didn't work
much.  But, I have set myself a goal to work 100 countries before next
Thanksgiving on 5 watts and have four down so far.  <GRIN>

Great work!  Very 73.

I was on for the CQWW CW contest.  No amplifier, but I have my dipoles and a
6-element triband beam at 60 feet.  I made 508 QSO's in more than 75
countries.  I still have not worked JA from here on 80, but can work a lot
of Africa, Europe and South America.  Ten meters was open somewhat to the
Caribbean and South America yesterday.  And I think that 80 was not quite as
good as the last couple of winters.  We are definitely beginning to see some
solar activity.
