TNX; don't envy me: checkout at 11, flight at 4, have to entertain 
children at SXM for a few hours before flight :)

Glad to work you... you're not the band winner though; I think K0XB has 
worked me everywhere I've been QRV; and a 4-lander whose call I forget.

Wanted to try to work JA's since that's a hard shot here and several had 
contacted me before the trip.  I have been QRV in googletalk with JF2MBF 
each evening for the JA sunrise checking for openings.  Tonight we 
walked up to Ft. Amsterdam (some photos of the remnants of the radio 
shack up there) and it was still happy hour at the beach bar...  some El 
Presidente's later I waded into 30M and started a pileup.  Worked NY0V, 
as he said, (have it on solid state recorder too!) and heard a few JA's 
so I called for them at about 2200; only worked 4, but for once NA was 
quite nice and most stood by while I tried to work them.  I went QRT to 
help pack some stuff up and then noticed that at 21:35 on dxsummit that 
a few had been commenting that I needed to call them.  I wonder how big 
of an opening to JA I missed.  Bummer.

Having lots of fun; 840 in the log; I didn't packup the antennas yet, so 
maybe I'll break 1k before I turn in for the night.  Last night by about 
0100 UTC, I couldn't get a bite anywhere and went to bed.
