[Fists] Re: Fists Digest, Vol 24, Issue 14

I've also joined SKCC Mark. I haven't heard this much activity on the 40 and
80 meter novice bands in years.
I find by asking if they are a FISTS member and exchange that number too.
Many are ! Double bonus as I see it.
The 7.120 frequency SKCC uses is right close to the FISTS 7.118 so it works
for me.
