This what I love so much about DXCC. I worked ST0 years ago and will have to waste the time doing it again on a bunch of bands. At some point, this becomes silly. Don/K1VSK - Original Message - From: Jim Reisert AD1C jjreis...@alum.mit.edu To: ct1...@mail.telepac.pt Cc:

Well Said Paul, If this didn't happen eventually we would run out of all time new ones then what would be left. It's almost like the state stocking the pond to give the fishermen something good to catch. 73, Tom, KE1JF -- From: Paul M Dunphy
