I think the participation from down under has more to do with the propagation and noise issues from the seasonal reversal, plus the time difference issued like how propagation mostly only opens up path to US at our sunrise. First, second, third and final. March, June, October, December. Freshman, sophomore, junior, senior. Aries, Cancer, Scorpio, Capricorn Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter My essential points were that none of them should be a "run-up" or rehearsal, and that there ALSO should be an annual score listing, which people could sign up to plaque as well. Of all the things that might improve down under participation is having more people on for the June Stew, where everyone has an opportunity to run up points that go together with the December Stew for an annual score. 73, Guy _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
