[IRCA] ULTRALIGHT DX...2 NEW ONES at Sunset....The March to # 600 Begins!!

[Robert Ross <va3sw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Guys:

   After a 2 Day Drought with no New Stations heard with the ULR's......I 
managed to squeak out 2 New Stations today at Sunset!!

As I continue my march toward Station # 600 on the ULR's....I find myself 
needing 37 More stations...with just 31 more days to go....if I want to 
accomplish this feat in my First Year of Ultralight DX'ing!! I began my ULR 
Career on JAN/01/2008.....just after Midnight!!

In order to hear #600 by the end of December....I think I'm going to need a 
few CHEERLEADERS from the ULR Ranks .......as I need to hear at least 
1.1935 Stations Per Day.....every day til the end of the year. A few 
hundred stations ago..that would have been NO Problem...but as I near # 
600...I am finding that it is very difficult to hear a New One EVERY DAY!! 
Like I said...I just went 2 Days...with Nothing heard!!

So.......when you go to bed tonight...say a Prayer for me..and if I get 
real lucky and accomplish this feat.....you'll know that you helped!! 
HAHHAA.... Luckily I have 11 Days off work, Leading up to and Including 
Christmas ......so hopefully I can dedicate some Sunset and Sunrise time to 
some serious listening then !! I'm gonna give this a college try....but 
It's gonna be tough!!
