[CQ-Contest] RE : UP Official Notification

[Jim Smith]

And I, for one, was very glad you worked split.  I was trying to work 
you (from VE7UF) before you split and it was impossible to tell who you 
were coming back to.  As soon as you split I could hear you just fine 
and took only a few minutes to work you, the first VU I've ever heard 
(although I did get a VU SWL card a number of years ago).
