Hello Don and All,

Thank you very much.

I think 80M is more difficult, 
because a window is extremely narrow 3599-3600kHz
so we may try SPLIT operation 
as We(JA) Tx above 3600 and Rx for DX below 3599. 

Anyway, 
I appreciate many QSO's in this year,
and wish you all the best to you in 2011. 

73 Happy holidays!
