RE: [IRCA] Speaking of DX Tests

["Bruce Bacon" <bruce.bacon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm with you, Doug. I very rarely send out reports; generally only for DX
tests anymore. But, like you, the reports I do send out are nicely put
together and accompanied by a recording of the recept. WRCG would never have
been heard here in Idaho without the help of a DX test with CW, so I for one
am anxiously waiting for that particular veri.
Cheers es 73's,
Bruce N7BWB
