[SADXA] What a bummer

Now I'm beyond bummed.  I stayed up last night (this morning) until 0800Z, listening to them on 40M CW, hoping they would go to RTTY.  Finally, exhausted, I went to bed and got back up at 1300Z and saw on the Internet that they had been on while I was sleeping.  I found the SSB op, contacted him and asked about more RTTY.  He said, "Wait a minute", came back and said, "No more RTTY today, maybe tomorrow."  

So I went back to bed, slept in until 1600Z to see that they were just on, but gone.

I think I've reached my limit of silliness.
