As a matter of fact, yes,     Played a hand or two of poker in a group NEXT
to the big Gorilla's with the buldging armpits...in the back of a 53'
refridgerated trailer parked at the back of a truckstop near Ozona
Texas...Word had it at the time that the guy supplied the beverages....Seemed
at the time to be a genuine, kindhearted, working guy. He might have been a
good multi op station owner..seemed to motivate REAL well....Now what he did
with our damn pension fund is another story......

BTW in my 4 X 4 X 8 self supporting tower base are a pair of Mary's underwear
and a BIG box of Gensing..... I wanted a REAL antenna erection...unfortunatly
it stopped at 55' ......I knew I shoulda thrown the bra in, too.....
           Never ONCE thought of QSL cards.......

The bra don't work to well.  Threw one in and still don't have a beam or tower 
(maybe should have used a smaller cup size, 40DDD, acted like a great spinaker 
and someone three counties over should like the tower).  Me,
I'm still working with the homebrewed dipole (maybe that's why noone can
hear me)

Has anyone ever operated all 21 New Jersey counties for the NJ QSO 
Party or know anyone who has.

The New Jersey QSO Party is this weekend and I am planning to operate 
as much of it as possible this year from the mobile. It would be nice 
to follow someone elses already developed route for going through all 
the counties rather than having to backtrack and probably waste time.
