Sorry, I thought you were referring to stamps.

There are not too many alive that would have all the deletes, dont some go 
back to the 40's? Norm Young, W1HX, sure had them all up until he went SK.

As far as 5BWAZ it may be just the 3 northern states; it was just something 
that K1MEM told me after he qualified the QSL's, and that the auroral zone 
dividing line was the Mass Turnpike.
