Ken:

Found myself in the 4O3T logbook SSB and CW - thanks for the link.

Only one comment on the KH8 expedition? - there were numerous ones on DX 
Summit et al.  There first shot at 20 CW was quite lame.  They would have 
been better off to have passed on it.

On the QSL deal - I continue to be surprised at how common place it has 
become to "require" direct, freight and additional payment to get a 
card.  I will probably never make the honor roll as it's very rare I will 
stuff bucks in an envelope to get a QSL.  Once in a while I've done it.  I 
can relate to the cost of doing some of these expeditions so can understand 
asking for help with the costs - it seems sometimes though there are those 
that are taking advantage of the trend.  I've decided I don't need their 
country, band or mode.  I don't have any problem with exposing cheaters so 
more power to you.
