Thanks very much, Marcus! I'm somewhat relieved to hear from someone 
else that 80 m is punk. I decided that I wanted to increase my total on 
80 (it's exactly 100) so I jumped in the ARRL DX CW contest on 80 m at 
100 W. Talk about hopeless! I was wholly ineffective. Several stations 
with good sigs CQed *in my face* as I called them. In disgust, I finally 
gave up. Now we're headed into Summer, so 80 m may have to wait until 
next Fall...

73,

Kim N5OP
