Super!  Thanks, Skip.  Well, shucks, would have been neat to pick
you up, Skip.  I picked up NT3K (Ken) in Las Cruces, NM with an
S9 signal both ways on 14.078 and it made for pretty well 100%
copy using FEC. Had no problems at all.  The contact lasted about
an hour or so.  He was using his MultiPSK package.

No one bother us for using PACTOR, had no apparent problems with
any PMBOs either.  I know, I know, PACTOR I is verrry retro but
what the heck - it was great fun.

C'mon, Skip.  I know you've got a few things on your plate, what with
NBEMS and all, but take a few sometime; break out that PK and
play with it.  It's still viable - it's better than just leaving the 
electrolytics
to dry up if it isn't broke.

Thanks again..
