    Sounds like a good learning experience and practice. Though, I likely will not play more than an hour a day per preference. IE: An hour of ragchew and an hour of "hunting" (be it DX or local).

    You can do a WAS in 30 hours or less. Especially on the 1st & 3rd full weekends in November. As a bonus... does RAC still offer the old WAVE or WACAN awards, or equivalent?
