Where was Claude this weekend???
Worked quite a few EU this weekend, including several Froggies, but no 
F5PBL!

The maiden voyage of the SOC club call, W0SOC was a blast.  I 
participated in the EQP and the SOC Marathon Sprint.  During the SOC, I 
sent the full EQP exchange with "SOC NR 1" at the end.  That didn't seem 
to cause any confusion, even with those who knew nothing about either 
contest.  I didn't keep track of my SOC totals since, as contest 
manager, I'm not eligible to compete.  But in the EQP, I had 370 Q's 
including ten FT's.

I have a QSL design worked out for printing from WB8RCR's QSLMaker.  If 
anyone wants a W0SOC QSL, please send SASE.  But I will spring for the 
return postage if you choose not to.  :-)
