Topband: July Stew Perry Please!!!!

[W5JR - Mike]

I like the Stew, however, it typically falls at a time when I've traveled away from home for the holidays and don't have access to a station or am actually traveling during the Stew weekend. Bummer. 

This year, the timing was different enough to operate the event and condx turned out to be less than stellar from QTH. 

I would like more 160 events but I doubt my station would be able to work any DX in the summer months. 

tnx
Mike
