Guess I might need to do some antenna planning.

John,

We are closed again today, so I am listening and figuring out how I am 
going to make my abbreviated classes work. I am sure we will be open 
tomorrow.

VP8ORK was challenging. I missed them on 10 and 160.  Worked them on 
80-12. Didn't try ssb...no interest. Did get a couple RTTY qso's.  They 
were usually weak here. I heard them a couple times on 10 and 160, but 
they were much too weak to work.
