All good suggestions Jeff & Hal. I had responded to Jon offline mentioning
some of the same. Thanks Jeff for mentioning Providence Canyon State Park.
I referred to that location to Jon but couldn't remember the name of the
park. A really nice place to visit. I have a business committment early in
the week but could possibly meet for dinner Thursday night.
BARTG starts about 9pm next Friday night and is a 48 hour contest. Everyone
with RTTY capability please look for us if time permits. Last year in this
contest, we set a new NA and US record so we'll be looking to better that
this year if we can.
Tnx & 73'......Fred WW4LL
