Mike K4GMH,

Yes, it was an interesting morning.  I managed to work both BD7KLO and
XX9BB.  What is interesting is I worked BD7KLO for a new one on 4-29 at
1237z and worked again on 5-9 at 1239z - two minutes difference.  The
opening to South Texas did not last long but it was nice while it lasted.

Sometimes we just get lucky.
