[ADXA] Clowns, LIDS and idioits

[Steven Rutledge]

Understatement.  I saw one guy CQing over WW forever and politely 
emailed him.  He responded, "sorry I hit the wrong button." ???????  I 
have yet to work WW on 20 meters.  I do not need them for an ATNO and 
did get them on 30.  I'd like a CW contact though because my previous 
two, when I was a young man, were SSB.  This has me worrying about 
Bouvet.  What is it going to be like??????

73,

Steve, QQ
