    I will be in the air rather than on it this weekend. No radio activity for me.

    I worked them a couple of times on 6 meters SSB, South Dakota is not an easy state to get on 6 meters from Kansas.

    There's hope. A philanthropic group locates donors for those without a good sense of humor. The group is called the Harvard Association for Humorless Americans, abbreviated H.A.H.A. Sadly, some people are in denial, and believe they have a healthy sense of humor.



    I'll try to do my part (in adding to the Contest Whiners' disgust) by participating in SDQP from here in WA.
    The WA7BNM Contest Calendar also shows Michigan & Ontario QSO Parties happening this weekend.

    I'm looking forward to the WAQP (aka Salmon Run) in September. Salmon Run is the only QSO Party where, if you score well enough, you can eat your prize. The top scorers in each category win a chunk of Salmon.

    I swore I wouldn't check this thread again, but I just can't help myself. I suppose I should apologize to my wife for laughing at her when she watches her baby mama drama shows.

    You had me wondering if there was something wrong with the contest.

    Looks like you may have a prototype for your next QSL card Tom.

    Only make the caption "Work More CØW!"

    Erm...thats the reason a lot of casual ops work the contests. To find states, countries, counties, prefixes or provinces for various awards.

    I've received dozens of QSL requests after contests from hams who say PSE QSL FOR WAS. In fact, I received a bureau VK QSL card from the CQWW in 2010 in which I was his first USA station on 40 meters...I even sent the return QSL back to him direct.
