I saw a posting a few days ago announcing a reflector for the NA contest
software. I thought I had sent a properly addressed message to subscribe
to it, but have received nothing. My notes are also gone, so if anyone
knows the subscription info for this conference, please remind me.
Thanks, 73, N4BP
