WOOHOO!!!!! Yay for you, Bert!!!
So, you are going to to the WAC! I know a friend, KN5I, I think he's done it twice and was on his third time around last time we hung around with him. The first certificate was absolutely beautiful. The second one wasn't bad...but much smaller. Good luck!! Kim W5TIT "Bert Craig" wrote in message ... Just finished up with K8BBM to put WY in the log and earn WAS QRP CW!

Tnx Jim. :-) Good show - Congratulations. You're already at least three countries into your dxcc, now go get the other 97. If I were you I'd concentrate on 20 & 15M where QRP signals have a better shot at the long-haul goodies than they do on 40M. -- Vy 73 de Bert WA2SI FISTS #9384 QRP ARCI #11782 w3rv |

About half w/a 66' doublet and the other half w/a Carolina Windom 40 LP. Next goal is WAC, then DXCC. On 40 meters? Can be done! True, but I'm starting to love 20 now. Belarus this morning. I've worked about 15 countries total already. DX Q's are a breeze compared to CONUS ragchews. My standard power level will rise from 5 W to approx. 20 W. (With 100 W available for those ruff cpy rpts.) ...and it all started with PA on 7031 on 9/10/03...courtesy of N2EY.

I real accomplishment would be WAS on 5bands....I.E. 5BWAS. Now that is tough. Dan/W4NTI |
