Way to go, Dow!! Remember how you were shooting for the first 100, and now you are at rocket speed. You’ll be 5K pretty quickly. Have fun and congratulations.

SUPER CONGRATULATIONS on achieving the 4K point plateau.
Gotta be lotsa fun from the East Coast working into the European SOTA gang. We don’t even hear most of them out here in West Texas.
Hope to get radio back from Yaesu soon and start my activations, and hope to be able to give you a few points towards that 5K level.

Hi Chuck,
The big problems for EU activators trying to work the West coast of North America, are available daylight, big time difference and very cold wx, prompting many Activators to go QRT earlier than they normally would.
The last month or so, it has been difficult (although not impossible) to get to places such as AZ and CA especially working SSB.
BTW, I see we worked twice on the 10m band in November. Many thanks for the calls.
