Well, Tennessee finally shifted to 50 years old and up (still at 1a1, 1a2 risk category) so I’ve ’signed us up’! Some 350 or so in front of us I guess. No way to be sure. So we’re in line for a needle-stick. Maybe this week, maybe next month, maybe sometime in the fall. Who knows? The way this state operates it’s anybodies guess. Mac/wt4bt Oh, Joe and Ev, ?I ‘ran into’ Bob Cady/W7JNM from out your way (Portland near Hillsboro) via Zoom last night. He said he doesn’t know either of you but would keep an eye/ear out for you. Seems to be a nice guy.

Looks good, Mac. You are starting to put together a nice list of Caribbean QTHs.
Price wise it's more expensive,? at $675/nite, than our usual villa. But of course it has a tower and a real QTH. However our?Chateaux Deveau comes with a vehicle. I can't recall the price that we paid the Devaux's? ut it was around $3200-$3400 per week or 8 days. However while under house arrest, they all look wonderful.?
It would be nice to get Peter to some of our Caribbean places. He likes warm.

OK Guys, read this! Another reason to go back to J6! In the latest NCJ magazine at <> or direct (maybe) <> the article starting on page 4. The J68HZ contest station is now open for business and a new villa will be available for rent mid-2021. Chateau Devaux for relaxing and a week at Villa Grand Piton for some hard-core action!

LICW (Long Island CW Club), training for us CW wannabees. This was a side presentation by?Larry Nutting, K7KSW on J-series keys. He’s got quite a collection! Yeah I’ve heard of the Adventurers, one of?Bonnie’s/KQ6XA endeavors if I’m not mistaken. Kind of hard to reach most of them from here, but I’ve got the NoGA QRPers to keep me in line if I stray to far into the ‘realm of the watt’.
Don’t know why lots of the PEI messages are getting caught in the "container of processed meat-by-product" these days

Bob Cady looks familiar. I recognize his call sign.? I'm unsure if I've met him, maybe at SEA-PAC.
Oregon has us scheduled from February 14-May 16...but hasn't met a target date yet.? We're both ready to got on with it.??
I'm still watching the Covid-19 situation at PEI.? They are having very little trouble but are tied with New Brunswick and both seem to be on top of it.

Got the call today! Scheduled for Monday AM for first stick (for both of us). I requested a RNA/DNA tweak for a third arm with fingers that already know CW. We’ll see how THAT works…
