I owe a real apology (already delivered) to Dave Hascall of
Indianapolis. He submitted an excellent entry in the Fall Follies
well before the deadline and somehow, I managed to lose it! So, his
score was never tallied; he did not receive a certificate (now rectified)
and his entry was not shown on the Final Tally Sheet (soon to be
corrected.) NUTS!!! I'm the one that dropped the ball, for
sure.
His 77 stations, garnered in only 90 minutes of listening, was the second
highest score in the Total Stations Heard Barefoot Category.
Here are his best five loggings that will be published with the others in
an amended Final Report.
730 XEX Mexico City, MX
