I will miss most of these contests, but might get in a few on 10 SSB or
a few lighthouse stations early in these contests.
I am going out of town for a bankruptcy law seminar and should return
early Thursday morning. Please post your claimed scores by Wednesday and
I'll try to summarize them Thursday. Good luck and much fun for all!

John, K4BAI.
