Joey,

I still have the 2 Six Club shirts. No one apparently wanted to buy them...I have now decided that I will give them away free, All I ask is that the postage cost gets covered. I feel $5.00 to ship them is fair...

So.please drop me a line and please spread the word. I really don't want to donate them tp the salvation Army resales shop...Kind of was hope someone would like them as they all all but new...washed and tried on, the put away.

Q: How many dx Internet mail list subscribers does it take to announce a new
dx station?
A: 1,343

1    to spot the dx and and to post to the mail list that the dxpedition has
been spotted;
14  to share similar experiences of working the dx and how the dx could have
been worked differently;
7   to complain about the dx operating habits, lack of low band activity,
interference to nets, lack of WARC activity, too wide splits, too narrow
splits, or not enough cw;
27 to point out the spelling/grammar errors in posts about the dx;
53 to flame the spell checkers;
41   to correct spelling/grammar flames;
6   to argue over whether it's "dx-pedition" or "dxpedition";
another 6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive;
156 to write to the list administrator about the dx spot discussion and its
inappropriateness to the mail list;
109 to post that this list is not about splits, cw or low band activity and
to please take this email exchange to dx-l;
203  to demand that cross posting to grammar-l, spelling-l and dx-l about dx
be stopped;
111  to defend the posting to this list saying that we all work dx and
therefore the posts *are* relevant to this mail list;
306  to debate which method of working the dx is superior, where to look for
him, how many calls it took -5 being the lowest so far and why this is the
worst dx pedition EVER;
27 to post URL's where one can see examples of better operations;
14 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the
corrected URL's;
3  to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to this
list which makes the dx discussion relevant to this list;
33 to link all posts to date, then quote them including all headers and
footers and then
add "Me too";
12 to post to the list that they are unsubscribing because they cannot
handle the
dx controversy;
19 to quote the "Me too's" to say "Me three";
4   to suggest that posters request the dx list FAQ;
43 to ask what is "FAQ";
4   to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago on the List?"
141 to ask "How do I unsubscribe?"
1    to ask if anyone's heard the dx...
1   more to ask what country the dx is in..

Sound familiar?

73, Don, N1DG
