[Lowfer] NC LF Beacon report for 02/03

[Bill Ashlock]

Dex,

>Thanks Bill.  I didn't intentionally leave you out, I think :)  Your
>report brings the total to 20 which is the most for NC in any one
>season. I looked back through my saved messages and did not find a
>report from Jon or Paul.

I'll see what I can do. These two may have reported the sightings only to 
this reflector.

>A rough estimate of the distance form Boston to Woodland Park, Colorado
>shows 1780 miles.

I'm getting 1783 to Andover from my locator program using Woodland Park as 
Doug's base. If I use Boston I get 1791 which is a bit weird because it 
looks like Andover is farther. Looks like you have me by about 37 miles. How 
sure are you on the 1820 to Steve's base? Now it looks like I should have 
paid Doug some $$ to put that gear in his car and drive a bit to the west!

>I can get Doug's coordinates from QRZ.  If you will give me your exact

I'm about 42:37:00N by 71:08:35W

Bill
