adding some surprises too.
Wonder where he’s going next???
Dave, K4SV, of CEØZ telling us an incredible story with sidebars. Dave is a 
wonderful DXpeditioner,
Elmer and speaker. This is a must.
Rick, NQ4I, on his super contest station and some VERY interesting stories!
Joe, AA4NN, telling us about his VU4 Andaman trip. Joe is sponsored by the 
great DX operators of the
Carolina DX Association who have taken a leadership role in SEDCO II 2006. 
Come out and meet some of the
very best DX operators in the world from CDXA.
The W1AW/4 saga by the Tennessee Contest Group in the recent IARU contest. 
The logistics for a
state wide operation was monumental and unbelievable.
Joe, W8GEX, will be telling the story of CYØAA and Montenegro, 4O6DX. This is 
worth the trip to
Pigeon Forge. They have a stateside QSL mgr too, K8LEE!
There is another program from a giant contest leader in this country, but the 
final word is being worked
out, so it remains a surprise until later. Every contester NEEDS to hear this 
‘winner’.
Gary, K4MQG, and Don, W4TO, will again be checking cards for DXCC.
