WH6RM2OPERATED FROM KH6YY. ATTN WPX JUDGES. DUE TO A LAST MINUTE LOG TEST OUR LOG STARTED ON QSO SERIAL NO.2 AND IT WAS TOO LATE TO RESTART THE LOG ON QSO NO.1 THE OPERATOR (WH6R) SENT 001 TO THE FIRST STATION, KE2VB. HE THEN PROCEEDED TO GIVE THE NEXT STATION NO.3 AND SO ON. I HOPE THIS IS OKAY. PLEASE LEAVE THIS AND PRIOR LINES OFF ANY PUBLICATION OF SOAPBOX COMMENTS. THANK YOU TO ALEX, KH6YY FOR LETTING US USE HIS STATION. CONDITIONS WERE POOR EXCEPT FOR A NICE OPENING TO EUROPE ON 20M THE SECOND NIGHT.
