Bob:

I am surprised to hear this too.  He seems like a nice
guy in spite of his chosen profession.  :)

I got the letter saying they had lost money too.  I
wrote a letter offering to pay the difference to help
make up the loss.  He replied it wasn't necessary,
just come again next year.  That being said, I don't
think he is about the money.  I would guess he is very
busy with his work and didn't read fully or someone
else checked his mail.  (I think he has offices
overseas and may make frequent trips.)

Try Todd, KK0DX.  I think he had a lot to do with
putting it together with the Omaha DX clubs
sponsorship.

GL and 73,
Jim (AA0MZ)
