Ian,

Are you planning on posting the photos to the 'net?
That'd be interesting. Too, maybe you can drop in and
keep us posted on your radio monitoring activities, once
you've returned? Come to think of it, you're going to
Hawaii, and I'd bet dollars to doughnuts you won't be
spending much time plugged in to the shortwave (wink)

73,
