[Elecraft] OT: FO5A/mm...hey, where did they go??

[Dave Andrus]

Folks:

Excuse the extra inbox chaff, but the moment I sent this they went QRT  
without notice.  Really, they did!  Honestly!  Don't know if they'll  
be back or QSY'ed, but as of right now, 7228 is quiet.  Maybe they  
went into search/pounce mode with just one radio.  I dunno.  Might not  
hurt to listen for a while.

Instead of crying wolf, does that make me the boy that cried, "DX!"?

Sorry,
