[ADXA] So, You Working Anyone???

[J. Setcer]

I've worked a few this week.
 I already know you big guys are going to laugh at me for even mentioning
these, but  Heck Fire, Lately ALL DX IS GOOD DX TO ME..
I worked HU1DL 3 times, 5I5TT once so far. TI9A on a few bands/modes. S79KW
once. FS5GL once. Z62FB once.... and a few others I won't bore you with.....

Nothing really special except TI9A. That was an ATNO for me.... But I'll
repeat myself "LATELY ALL DX IS GOOD DX"

That's my story & I'm sticking to it.
