Thanks for your concern Bob (W7LR). Everything will be OK in a few days
time. Messing with a car I splashed some gasoline on my clothing and a
flashback set me alight. Most of the dressings are off now and the new skin
seems fine and no permanent damage.  Lost a bit of beard, but that's one
place where hair still grows well.

The VK/ZL summer 'season' is creeping towards its end Bob! Although it has
been a poor year compared to most, it has been open to VK to some extent
most days since May, and the GPS on 1819 and 1817 has been audible every day
without fail.

Have fun everybody
