Oh, don't ever forget the value of dumb luck. I've got a 3Y/B, a VU4, and a 7O
card in my possesion (all good) that I worked with 100 watts and a Butternut
Butterfly at 30 feet. Maybe I *am* a better op than a lot of people, but I
suspect the rabbits feet I have hanging all over the shack helped me at least
some with those three ;)
