Hi Dick

If more guys would just spend some time listening and not jumping right in 
and start calling, it'd be a lot better.

I worked them on 20 tonight with about 5 calls.  I listened until I found 
who he was working, then who he'd work next.  He was moving up a bit after 
he worked a station.  Seems like everyone jumped on the frequency of the 
last guy they worked.  I followed them up the band 2 or 3 times, and when 
they worked a station, I parked about 500 cycles above the last one he 
worked and bingo---in the log!!  73
