[ADXA] The Hit List

[Steven Rutledge]

I need 5R on 60,80.  9U on 40, 60, 80, 6O on 12, 9L on 80.  I could not 
bust the pile-up on 9U on 40 last night.  He answered me once but we 
didn't complete the Q.  There was a very strong CW station, in the 
contest, on the 9U operating frequency.  Totally wiped out the 9U signal 
when he transmitted.
