[kd4e]

Probably get me banned from the BA-AM club but I
just set the FT-897D to 29.000 AM and will be
monitoring.  :-)

Nothing older available for 2M here at the moment!

Looking forward to discovering what I can hear on
the 80M dipole.

BTW:  Don't forget the Oceania DX Contest later
today.  May make for some interesting contact
opportunities down to VK & ZL land.
