Hi Wayne, and all...............

First, YA/G0TQJ, I saw a note a while back that he was returning to the UK.
That was about 4 - 6 weeks ago, so I guess he is back home now. No clue as
to whether he will return!

Second, I have no 160m capability, so won't play on that band anyway, but I
have no objection to it being included.

As for NAQP in general, well, I enjoy the contest (it's short, and fun!) but
it doesn't seem to cater for DX stations that well. I had a couple of NA
stations tell me they couldn't work me for points but were happy to have a
QSO, and two said SRI NA ONLY, and then carried on CQ'ing.
Whilst the rules are fairly clear about who works whom, I would like to see
more encouragement for DX stations to participate.

And finally, for those folk who dislike the ragchewer in the midst of a
contest, well - try having GU as a prefix!
See, there IS a downside to it! I get asked for my WAB square, IOTA, WWLOC,
do I know so-and-so who used to be a GU way back in the 40's or
50's.................
And as Bill said, when they get to the name of their dog, I'm outta there!

73 to all, and see you in SARTG!
Phil GU0SUP
