Jim,

I used to look forward to WPX and even go to great lengths to acquire a
special call at times - was not easy here.

It’s meaningless putting out my prefix now that this is an entirely new
contest - may be some day if it becomes an established one :)

Some may call CQ DX instead of CQ WPX though ;-)

73,

Prasad VU2PTT.
