Hi John,
Would be glad to sked 30 m cw QSO.
Am about to head for church, etc. and will be home today Sunday, May 19
after 5 pm ADT ( 0100 Monday 20 May UTC).    If you have not already logged
the 30 m AK QSO,suggest a time/freq convenient for you this evening, and if
today is not good for you, suggest other times that are convenient for you.
73,
Jim, KL7JM
