Comments:

Just fooled around a bit in this one. Did not get the
RigBlaster hooked up until late Friday night.
Basically I was out looking for new RTTY DXCC. Found
about 12.
FK8HN,7X0AB, and CN8KD where great finds with my LOW
antennas and low power. Working ZF2NT and P40G on 4
bands was pretty cool too. Sorry I missed them on 80
meters. This is the LAST contest I do in AFSK! I can
not use my 500HZ filters in LSB with the MKV and I
really needed them with the crowds this weekend 
and the BIG sigs some of these guys where putting out.
Sure could of used that TenTec Orion I used at N5TW's
during the RTTY RU, talk about nice filter shaping in
LSB. But the MKV will do very nicely once I am in FSK.
Lots of good activity this weekend with great RTTY ops
as always. See you all in the next one. 

FT1000MP MKV, 100 watts, WriteLog (The best), AFSK
(not the best), RigBlaster, TH3MK3 at 40 feet and
40/80 V at 36 feet.
