Hi Stan,

Thank you for the info. You have an outstanding score 
indeed. I've started on 80 meters on Feb 1997 so far I have 
5BWAZ on CW and needing 4 to go on phone. I've already 
worked 179 countries, 160 confirmed. The problem is that 
running a single inverte Vee is a real pain, so I decided 
to invest in 4 square at my brand new QTH 50 miles NW from 
Sao Paulo. I've heard a lot of good points about the 4 
square, I think it will make me happy.
All the very best.
