Jim:  As I read the notice they said ATNO meant you had not worked "this 
dxpedition".  I agree with your definition but that is not what they said.
I have the island confirmed from way back in the early 70's I think it 
was.  Therefore I kept out of the pile ups on all bands (my normal 
procedure) in order to give those who  "need it" an opportunity.
To me 9 bands each on  three or more  modes is one of the banes of 
current dxcc.  The first time ever is a thrill, beyond that its like 
making a cell phone call.  Flame suit on.  73 bob de w9ge
