Small addendum: Despite the 4 callsign my QTH is Maine, one of the 
less common multipliers.


Craig:

I expect to be on 0500-1200Z on November 5. I'm planning to run my K2 
at 5 watts strictly 80 m. I'm not really trying to run up points in 
the contest. I am working on QRP WAS on 80 m, and I still need a few 
western states (ND, SD, NV, NE, ID, AK, HI), and SS is a good chance 
to get them.

I'll listen for you on 80 m.

73,
