Thanks, I understand.  I was trying to get a little on-the-air practice, 
trying to get ready for a local DX pileup on 40 this Saturday.

You mentioned QSLs and Awards. Here's one for you.  The local hams are 
talking about a "very special" special events station, K6O, Kilo Six 
Oscar.

K6O will be CW only.  No packet, no SSB, no local FM.  Just HF CW.  The 
QSL will explain.

K6O will be on the air just another week  and there haven't been very 
many contacts.  The word is that K6O will be on this Saturday during the 
day, monitor the DX Clusters and 20, 30, and 40 meters.

A QSL from K6O will be "rare".  When they go QRT, that'll be it, 
probably for all time.

de ah6gi/4  hoping to snag K6O.
