[ADXA] Looking for CQWW CW Ops

[w5zn at w5zn.org]

Thanks to those who responded. I now have ops lined up for the "run" 
station.

I would like to have a couple of extra ops for the "mult" station. If 
you have availability of anywhere from 2 to 6 hours during the daytime 
on Saturday or Sunday (November 26-27) and proficient with CW at 15 WPM 
or better you can operate the mult station. Its an easy shift!

If you have interest in being a part of the W5ZN team please contact me 
off the reflector and we'll schedule a slot for you.
