[MRCG] Bedbugs?

[Tim]

Here's an old camping trick:  Next time you dig in your communications
bunker out in the field, build it under eucalyptus trees - no ticks....

For our Aussie friends: As Crocodile Dundee educated us: swimming in
mineral water in the bush is OK - no Crocs...!  (You guys are fun - hope to
see you again!  And I want a DX QSL card from VK3 that I worked from Guard
Hill with my PRC-6!!)  LOL
