I look forward to working you also on 17 RTTY. You are the only station 
I have ever heard on 17 RTTY and we have worked on both 20 and 40. I 
installed a Tennadyne LPDA last fall and hope to work you on all the 
high bands as the cycle improves. I guess maybe we can try to make a 
sked after the Easter holiday.

I also would like to try 30 meters if you have the antenna for that band.
