A more "stupid idea'" was that I had planned to operate the August NAQP 
from Alaska.  Fortunately, I cancelled my plane reservations on Monday (was 
supposed to leave for KL7 on Tuesday).  Your post confirmed I made the 
right decision, albeit primarily for work related reasons.

Yup, from Attu, the westernmost point in North America, (173 degrees E, 
Siberia is NE of the island!), I made a grand total of 4 QSOs...all on 20 meters in 
the NAQP last week.  Only record set was being the westernmost North American 
station ever in the NAQP.  There was no 10 or 15 and it doesn't get dark 
there until 0900Z, so no 40 or 80.
