Hello Group:
It is good to know in advance, I have time to change all my plans for one
week ahead.
Geee, I planned all: vacation (not too long in this country), tickets,
callsign, accomodation to the fourth weekend..
Imagine if someone came oversease for the Contest, just one week earlier,
and must go back just before the Contest starts.. funny..
Now I am changing everything, to the very Last weekend of September. It is
plenty of time still.
See you in CQ WW RTTY from HR-Land (call TBA)
