Wow!. Had a club board meeting tonight, and thought I'd miss the Fox.
When it turned out that Randy, WJ4P was there with his outstanding rigs,
the meeting took even longer, but well worth it.

If you haven't seen his prize-winning 49'er, his much-modified OHR-400
and the little Whiterook key with the built-in keyer, you've missed some
very exciting stuff. What a builder/modifier this guy is.

Anyway, got home about 0315Z and thought I'd missed the fox for sure,
but a check of his posting showed him to be on 'til 0330Z. Cranked up
the rig on 7.043 and there was Larry calling CQ. One shot, and bagged
him.

Cool. Band is better than it has been. Hope lots of you had the same
luck.
