[Dx-qsl] 7O1YGF and 7O1A

[Fred Souto Maior]

Congrats Doug. You really said how things are always
hapenning. Specific rules for  particular guys and
general rules to the others.
And of course we have the option. Accept that fact
and live with it or go away and do anything else !!
That's the name of the game guys !!!
