MultiOperater is not permitted under JAPANESE Radio Law as 7J7ABC.
It's personal licence. IT'S SERIOUS!

Damn! And you were the only GW0 I worked on 10 meters too...
in fact you were the only GW
maybe the only European...
DAMN! Maybe I didn't even really work ANYBODY on 10!!!
Maybe it was just the guy with the DVK recorder!!!

I mistakenly used an "X" as a place holder in citing the fictional "WX3_"
as a bad operator during WPX SSB. I should have typed "W_3_".
I am sorry I cast bad do-do on WX3s, and I will be more careful in the
future. de K4VUD

What I can not figure out is this, if I increase my voltage, my current
increases. The load stays constant. Redo your math formulas fellas.
