? ? I say both will be no-shows.

fair, the band sounds dead. *We've got 30Kt winds and the ambient
static sucks.

Ooooops...Hit the send key too early....Sorry...

So...waddaya say, Mark? Gonna impress us with your ability to
hook the old pooter to the modem and make some 40m CW QSO's? Ten
meters won't hack it...So...Wanna rack-up some RRAP QSO's? I got a
QSL card here with your name on it...

Monday the 26th? Make that Tuesday 0001Z on 7.050 +/- QRM. I'll
call you.

Can ya hack it?
