<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Paul, there are quite a few strong signals around
14030 right now (1905Z) in the CWT contest. I also hear a loud signal
at 14040 giving out "599 ND" reports. He is running a big pileup up 1
or 2. I didn't wait for him to ID, but If this the North Dakota
week for W1AW, it must be W1AW/0.</FONT></DIV>
