Steve and I have already committed to operate at K5GO for the ARRL CW
(Love driving into that south MO/north AR ice in Feb.!) Count me in for WPX
SSB...I'd really love to see us do a WPX CW, though. Any chance you might
consider that as M/M instead of ARRL CW? Nicer antenna weather in May!
Thanks for your enthusiasm and hospitality. Have a very happy holiday! 73
