Yeah, I know it's kind of slow at this point.
I'm listening here as I write this.
I think things will pick up considerably when the band lengthens out as we
get later in the day.
I sure hope so.

Tom,
I'm sure the band will change as the afternoon goes on, hopefully for
the better for you. The guy who is on now isn't doing a land office
business. His biggest problem isn't whether or not to work split or
by call area, it's probably just staying awake.
73, have fun, Steve KW3A
