[CQ-Contest] Fw: Speed Change Prevents Skimmer Spot

[Jim Neiger]

My final note on any of these things, then back into hibernation.  Many 
thanks to all who've written nice personal notes to me; I've tried to answer 
most, but may have missed some.

And I thought I'd share with you all,  N4ZR's candid opinion of me, below. 
Guess I won't be getting the usual Christmas Card from you this year, Pete, 
darn it.
