Hi Gary,

No what the problem was it wouldn't take the pass K & VE first.  it 
would pass everything.  it took about three of four  tries for it to 
take for some reason.  But once it took i left it run for about a hour 
on 20 meters on N1MM  all bands on CC and N1MM open on 20, and only 
stateside and VE's were seen.  way cool.

I know someone mentioned why not leave it open to all DX included since 
you can work DX on FD and get points.  But I rarely remember many DX 
contacts in the logs.  and to clutter the bandmap with all their calls 
seems counter productive ya know?
