What an operation!!!
And I thought I was roughing it when I would drive the R/V from ORG 
Cnty to IMP Cnty for the CQP and set up a R-7 on a fence post..
Double way to go, Dennis.

Question, now that I am no longer K6ACZ in ORG, CA but now K7ACZ in 
NEV can or should I still place SCCC as my club in my contest 
selection in my log entries?  I did so for the ARRL DX, WPX, and 
CQWWDX but did not for the ARRL10M.  Is there a mileage limit or such 
rule?  I just want to help you beat NCCC.
