    The local "Brummie" accent here would have it as "Yow all"...whatever, good luck, see you on 20 metres SSB soon, I hope!

    Thanks to all who educated me on the "y'all" thing. Very entertaining. Here all along I thought it was just a word spoken by someone who didn't pay attention in English class. Being from West Virginia originally and thinking of moving back there ("Country Roads, Take Me Home), I am somewhat sensitive to being classified as a hillbilly, backwoods hick from up in a hollar. So I TRY to sound somewhat intelligent in my speaking and writing.
    KB3LAZ - in addition to warsh, you forgot to mention the state to the left of Pennsylvania, A-hi-ya. I keep telling my Mother there are O's in Ohio, and there's also one in Carolina (South Kerlina).
