I would rather see him sign from the Yukon myself. Much

rarer.

That would be a real adventure during that time of the year. I

never

had a VE8 (why does that remind me of a commercial??) ever,

much less in

a contest.


Yukon is VY1, and pretty well represented in most contests. Jay,
VY1JA, is always in the chair on contest weekends, along with
assorted KL7xx/VY1 players.

Oops, somehow or another something got messed up. I might have replied
to the wrong message. Steve noted that even rarer would have been a VY0
Nunavit, which at one time was part of VE8. A bad case of shifting
territories going on here! And Yup, I do get into the Yukon fairly often.


The tough VE from here is VE4. Several stations are active in
RadioSport (VE4GV, VE4GV, VE4YU, etc) but they're all in Winnipeg
which is roughly 600KM away, deep in my skip zone.


Ve4 isn't too bad from here.

I don't have any problem from East Central Alabama on any of the Canadians.
If they are active. I have 4 clean sweeps out of 5 years on both phone and
cw modes in the Sweeps.

Missed it this last time tho.
