Because this is a DX list? Because this is the first DX test of the season? 
Because someone went to considerable effort to provide all of us with an 
opportunity to log what can be a hard-to-get state? Because we're DXers and 
maybe get a little excited about an opportunity like this? I dunno. I'm not 
the thoughtful person who did the posting, but I'm glad he/she/they did, 
because I got totally preoccupied with work today and would otherwise have 
forgotten! Now, as for the miscreant poster, you ought to be thanked. So, 
because today's magic number appears to be five, thank you, thank you, thank 
you, thank you, and thank you!

That may be true. You don't tell is where you are, so it's hard to help. If 
you're in San Quentin, try one of those nifty prison radios. The ones that 
are transparent so you can't hide your contraband. I hear they're 
exceptionally good receivers - actually, I have first-hand knowledge of that 
myself, but we won't go there. There is one place where a Prison Radio, a 
high-powered Drake, and anything and everything in between won't work. The 
temperature should be a dead giveaway. Finally, there's state of mind, from 
where many things aren't possible. Anyhow, without knowing your QTH I will 
recommend two options: 1) Give it a shot from wherever you are, with 
whatever means are at your disposal. Or, do nothing.
