Hi Paul:

I can't speak for others, but it actually added a bit of excitement to the evening
for me.. Your 2200 meters signal is very strong down here.. I had to stare at 
the capture for a while until I figured out the sequence .. I think anyone who 
has listened on 2200 meters is all too familiar with the noise, and what frequency
is the quietest one at my QTH issue.. Good luck with your QSO attempt..

 I apologize for transmitting DFCW
 in the WSPR segment. I would have
 preferred
 to be elsewhere but the other station has frequency
 constraints and cannot move far. I sincerely
 hope this doesn't cause
 problems for
 anyone. This wasn't announced because it is a QSO
 attempt but the cat is out of the bag now. Note
 that the frequency
 used is one that almost
 always has an active WSPR station on it
 (except during this QSO attempt), thus would
 not be an ideal choice
 for a North American
 WSPR station.
