Re: [IRCA] IRCA 39-88-9 St Aug Fla Bandscan

["Ira Elbert New, III" <ien3@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

    The Band Scan from Saint Augustine, Florida is by no means a complete 
one. I couldn't listen every night we were there due to the weather a couple 
of nights and then there were the obligatory nightly beach walks to look for 
ghost crabs. The days were spent on the beach and in the waves or poolside 
or in the pool, eating lunch.... I know, for the sake of the hobby, I should 
have told my Family that one complete day one complete night on the vacation 
would be devoted to DX, but I didn't do that this time. Perhaps next time...

    The Mansfield, Georgia Band Scan suffered almost the same fate. I was 
at a Lichen Workshop and days were spent in class and.....well...you know 
the rest.

    Thanks for the notice and I will try to do better the next time around. 
I will be in Newington, CT the first week of August so we'll see what I can 
muster there.
