Steve:

Are you planning to play in the 160-meter CW contest next week-end?

Just piddled around a bit yesterday, in and out of the shack during the 
day and evening.   Just under a hundered QSO's on all bands 160 through 
10 meters.

I pulled the plug early and went to bed, but just prior to that, I heard 
Lloyd at least twice on 75 meters.   We were both S and P, so didn't 
work each other.

Just after 2100, I did a quick check on 7.191 to see if anyone was doing the
Roundtable.  I heard David KD4JEZ calling, but before I  could reply,  a
loud station from New England started on 7.190, and that was the end of
that.

73, Steve KW3A
