QRN may be the biggest problem. Long range WX report for the weekend has a
storm in the East that may make copy dificult.

Additionally, remember that this is NOT a DX contest. It is more of a 160
SS. DX participation is either the die-hard DX'ers or at local DX Sunrise.
Don't count on a multitude of DX participation.

Push long and hard Scott and u'll do OK.

Benn there, done that.

73 and GL all. Remember DX window (yuuuuk) is 1830-35!
