Jerry,
I will definitely get these up on the web for viewing/printing or  
download...Whatever makes it most convenient for the web visitors...Might take  me a day 
or two...
By the way, on the subject, I've become rather good friends with Dave  
Johnson, K4SSU,
who was one of the operators from Navassa in the late 70's...He tells me  
that in his circle
of influence there is moving and shaking too to make it possible to again  go 
to Navassa...
Also, I was at a SEDXC party at Ken Byers' (K4TEA) lake cabin out at Lake  
Lanier last Saturday and had the pleasure of meeting quite a few of the  
Southeast DX Club members
that I had not met up to this point.  One notable was Bob Allphin,  
K4UEE...It was a pleasure
having a chance to talk at some length with him...He told me that he was  
flying out Monday to join all the other operators that were going to be  
activating Aves Island, YV0...And, as you probably know, he's one of the primary  
people spearheading the Peter 1 DXpedition in January...
While speaking of such things, I'm going to ask/coax/plead/cajole/etc/etc  
everyone in OKDXA to consider a contribution to both of these VERY needed  
entities...When Bob told me the price tag on the Peter 1 Dxpedition, I couldn't  
believe the amount...I would of course ask the OKDXA as an entity to contribute  
to both, but I suspect that has already been brought up?
Anyway, my best to all back in Oklahoma...I must say 73 now, I see the  
rollercoaster pulling out and I must stay on board yet a little longer...
Gene
