What on earth were you doing up there?  Did you go just for the NAQP?  Were 
you running QRP to a fiberglass fishing rod or something???

Hmmm...I seem to recall N6TR/Tree made something like one QSO in a Sprint a 
year or two ago from KL7 land.

I think I'll QRX on any more CONTEST-Pedition/DX-Pedition plans until the 
Sunspot Cycle is on the upswing again.  Well, except, of course, for the 
upcoming CQP :-)
