There's a RTTY Sprint coming up at 0000Z, but it's domestic so there
shouldn't be much RTTY down on 7040, and it's over at 0400Z.

   Hey Bob and all,

   Well, bands are pretty crappy here today! I'm calling CQ on 20 and have
   worked about 11 guys. Not a lot of propagation today...

   BTW, one suggestion, if you are calling CQ call CQ EQP, as there are 2 other
   contests going on right now, the SOC Sprint, and the OK QSO Party. Makes it
   easier to figure out which contest we're responding to ;-)

   Hopefully 40 will be better tonight es hope to work a few of you either
   CW/SSB/PSK31...
