Enjoyed working you very much, John. And yes - that Valiant sounds great. Joe, Bruce, and I were just on doing some rag chewing and I was certainly surprised to hear you jump in. I knew who you were instantly, despite the different callsign. That should say a lot about your audio. It was nice to work someone in a corntest who was actually talking and not just looking for the obligatory '5-9-regardless' report followed by 'good luck in the corntest'. I got out of it years back when it became less about public service/preparedness and instead just another excuse for trying to yell over everyone else in order to 'win' some strange bragging rights. Would love to be a fly on the wall when you send in your log and they read my reported class as being 1KW. Meantime, get yourself onto 75. You'll be a welcome addition to the northeast group, O.M.! ~ Todd, KA1KAQ
