They aren't all vacations, either. Sitting in a place like Peter I or Bouvet for a couple weeks isn't my idea of a vacation, anyway. Ron ZL1AMO told me about one of his visits to Rotuma. He said the food he had was terrible, he was constantly plagued by insects, and he got sick while there. Again. not my idea of a vacation. BTW does anyone know how Ron is doing these days? 73, zack W9SZ Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org
