Unfortunately I couldn't make this one although, while doing some cleaning up, I could hear quite a few signals on 40m---Nice idea and I hope the turnout was good on the other bands as well........

Why is this on the WARC bands? It is the only place where people that hate contests (and this is a contest) can go to truly enjoy cw. http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif
