The combination of the twodid NOT result in a high rate for Bernie, but he tried.  I think hewent to 20 SSB shortly afterward. 73 - Jim AD1C   Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org    --  Barry Kutner, W2UP             Newtown, PA
