And I quote:
"Why can't we all just get along and be friends and have some fun"??
Life is much too short for all this BS...
If you were operating S/O Unassisted and a buddy called you
on the land line to ask how you were doing in the contest.
Before hanging up he mentioned that a new multiplier just came
up on 21045 would you go take a listen and maybe even work it!
If so, will you change your log to S/O assisted???
Inquiring minds want to know...
