Hi Pete, 

Thanks for giving the 3 inch "Frequent Flyer" FSL antenna a very good workout during your European cruise. 

Despite the challenges you seem to have done an excellent job in tracking down and reporting the North American and European MW-DX stations, including some seemingly exotic ones (from the standpoint of a west coast TP/DU DXer). Congratulations, and thanks for your efforts!
