Ron,n
lI got your name and e-mail off your website.

My name is Doak Dingler; I live in Carnesville, GA; my call is WN4PFI.  I am almost 64 years old and have never completed my WAS - All CW, due to the amount of traveling I did with my public job.  I am now retired and the moving days are over.  I lack one state to finish WAS - Hawaii!.  Since I became a Ham in 1962, I have never worked or heard a Hawaiian station.

So, I come with an unusual request.  Do you know of someone who works a lot of HF who would be willing to partner with me to make an Hawaiian contact?  I have been listening for many weeks to the beacon, but the signals are very weak.  The best I've heard is about 09:00 z (5:00 AM local time) when I get up, but perhaps the best time is earlier.  I have listened on 14 mhz and 21 mhz.  I need some guidance and suggestions as to how to make this work.

Let me know if this whole idea is plausable.  I have worked Japan, New Zealand, and Australia on 40 meters, but that was back in the winter.  Any consideration would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Doak
