Hi Dave,
I remember too. It was nice. I am not going as I am setting up some new
antennas – 4 on 40 m and 2 x 5 on 20 m. You know we SM (and LA:s as well) hams
are so equal in marriage that after this antenna work I have consumed all my
“own free time” for the quarter with only some spare time left for upcoming
contests.
I like the idea with an Ipad but I am afraid she see will see “through me” :)
Women today are so smart – “they rule” the world as I say to my son at
University (SA5ODJ BTW).
Good luck in the WRTC – are there any webcasts to watch?

Kari,
Since you have your own Flex remote station, there should be no problem
operating from your bedroom using your iPad while your wife sleeps -- at least
on CW.
I remember our meeting at F'hvn last year. I think that you need to do a
little exploratory trip, will I see you at Wittenberg next week?

We all hope some group will step forward to organize the next WRTC. It is a
great exhibition of the sport of contesting.
