Nice to know Zack!  Brice and I tried for years to make a Lowfer two way 
QSO.  We both heard each other's beacon Q5 several times but we were 
just not available at the same time for a QSO.  I use to work Brice on 
160 meters.  Anyone know if he is still active on any band?

I use to copy BOB very well during the winter.  Will be nice to hear it 
again.  And I do mean by ear :)
