<p class="MsoNormal">Good to hear from you.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Well, I don’t know about hog, but I am at 2696 on the Challenge award. I’m waiting on 4 outstanding QSLs. If they come through I’ll be at an even 2700.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The 160 season has been good to me this year. I got enough to get my 200 confirmed endorsement on 160.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As to South Orkney all those contacts were made in 1995 and 1996. I’m sure there has been at least one DXpedition since then, but maybe not. If there was I missed it.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m not sure if they are going to do RTTY and 12 is probably out at this point in the sun spot cycle. But I might be able to get them on 160.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Are you going to the FD dinner?<o:p></o:p></p>
