Clayton,
Thanks again for going out to EL58 today, and for sticking around to work that FO-29 pass at 1912 UTC. I spent my lunch break at a city park near my office to work K5L, and got you early in the pass. After moving off to work a couple of other stations, I went back to listen to you work the last half of the pass. There may have been crowds earlier, but there was no waiting to work you for most of this pass, and stations from coast to coast got in the fun and worked you. I heard N6UK and KG6FIY in California work you, as well as KI1U in Connecticut, among the others that worked you.
Looking forward to seeing some pictures of your station on the water, and for the confirmation to show up in the usual places. Getting EL58 covers me for what are the 3 wettest grids in the 488 continental USA grids, after working ND9M/MM in CM93 and DM02 off southern California in 2011. A good day...
73!
