[PVRCNC] FW: WPX SSB W4BBT SOAB Rookie HP

[Jim K4QPL]

FB Don,
Cool on VP5P. I came home on Wednesday and left Ross W2TT and John AF3K to it. I also worked them on 20M. 
I heard you at the end on 40 but you had a good pileup and we were too far/close for good signal strength. Ran out of time!
73,
Jim K4QPL
