Hi Brian & all QRPers & SOCers !

We should all switch on our QRP powers, turn our beams and even our GPs towards
5U and make a giant Sked on their QRGs ... A mix Big Common FP-SOC Sked, that
would be great indeed !! SOCers only members are allowed to use more than 5W
;o))

Mac, AF4PS, were are you ?? As all pile-ups and skeds belong to you ... we need
you RIGHT NOW !
Switch on your Crazy TRX ... free shoot is allowed !

72s, 73s !
Claude, F5PBL

Claude,

As a Flying Pig you are obligated to travel to Africa, and QRM the
Italians from the street with a 3 w transmitter.  It won't hurt their
output, but it will definitely dampen their reception.
