In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense divine?

Common Sense is the image of the Creator expressing revealed truth in my mind. -  John W. (Kansas)

Never interfere with anything that isn't bothering you.

The K9W Wake Island Dxpedition is back on track and should be on the air this weekend (Nov 3) if all goes to schedule.
(See announcement below and http://wake2013.org/index.html )

They are running K3s and KPA500's, so they should both sound great and have sensitive ears!

   I thought you'd like to know that late Monday, 28-October, we received
   permission from the USAF to visit Wake Atoll.  You can read the Press
   Release on the K9W website.

   http://wake2013.org/

   I leave tomorrow (Wednesday, October 30) for Honolulu to meet up with the
   team, then we depart for Wake at 0230 on Friday morning, November 1.  We
   hope to be operational by November 3 and continue on the air until November 15.

   We're excited that this is Commemorative DXpedition is finally coming
   together because our primary objective is to honor the Forgotten 98 civilian
   contractors who lost their lives on October 7, 1943 during WWII -- 70 years
   ago. http://wake2013.org/pages/forgotten98.html

   And, of course, we're looking forward to putting Wake Atoll QSOs into as
   many logs as possible over the next two weeks!

   If you'd like to help the DXpedition with a personal donation, here is the
   Sponsors page:

   Assuming we have good internet access, I plan to keep in touch via the K9W
   website.

   Wish us luck -- I'll be looking for you in the pileups. : >)

   73,
   John, K6MM
