[IRCA] Updated Firsts and Records + REMINDER

["John H. Bryant" <bjohnorcas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've just published the UPDATED Records and Firsts list in the 
Ultralight DX files area at www.dxer.ca  The major changes are two 
more countries heard, Barefoot, by Allen Willie of St Johns: Bulgaria 
and Ukraine AND the first distance record in the Graveyard Channel 
category (a bit over 400 miles/600 km) set by (who else) Robb Ross of 
Ontario. All that I can tell you is that the Pacific NW gang is 
strapping on its Ultragear and getting ready to head to the beaches 
for some serious TP distance records.  Even before that, Nick 
Hall-Patch had a very strong Ultra-het from home on 1575, which was 
surely VOA Thailand.... somewhere out there beyond 10,000 miles. 
So... stay tuned.

REMINDER:  The 2008 Cabin Fever Ultralight MW DX Sprint listening 
period starts 30 minutes before your local sundown, Friday evening 
and runs just past sun-up on Monday am at your QTH.  Be There or Be 
Square! (there is a Participant's Packet on dxer.ca, if you are interested!!!)
