Where's Chuck Norris? Remember, he doesn't need to find the DX. The DX comes to him.

I found out Chuck uses a stunt dx'er to do his listening. His name is Glenn something or other.

Harold and Al are pure dx'ers. They only use radios that weigh more than they do and have plenty of knobs. How do you think Harold got that hernia? Carrying an old Collins receiver through three feet of snow on a Canadian dxpedition, fighting off starving polar bears and packs of ravenous wolves.

I won't go into the details of Al's dx'ing adventures. Some of them are......ummmm...... odd.

Just a FYI for some of those newer DXers who may not be aware of this - Al can actually can copy sstv using only his brain by listening to the signal and drawing the pictures with colored markers.

Hmmm......  odd results so far. "None of the above" is making a strong showing as the election enters it's final hours.

There has been some speculation ol' Fishbreath Fansome may have been tampering with the vote via his precious Raspberry Pi, but that will be determined after the polls close.

Remember, if none of the candidates wins at least fifty percent of the total vote, there will be a run-off between the top two candidates receiving votes.
