Hi Mark,
Thank you for the personal invitation before the convention, and I'm sorry that
I couldn't attend in Phil's place to give the "Frequent Flyer" FSL antenna

For me, it was a case of having gone to Oregon for 9 days in August, the
Cook Islands for 5 days in April and Hawaii for 5 days in December. Sooner or
later you do need to face the reality that travel budgets exist for a reason.
