What a workout for a Sprint rookie among a bunch of speed demons, hi!

I used N0SS's e-mail as a template for the following:

Rig:
      K2/100 driving an Alpha 76CA
      20m antenna = TH6DXX @ 75' (tower #1)
      40m antenna = 402BA @ 75'  (tower #2)
      80m antenna = both towers as a phased array (spacing 135')

Time operated: 4 hours

Comments:

Due to all of the QRM, I feel that I would have done better using my
FT-1000MP with its better CW xtal filters (much better skirt
selectivity).

Would've worked Tom, N0SS on all three bands, but I wasn't quick enough
on 80m (I found out that you have to be lightning fast in this contest!).

At least I had fun beating out any other west coasters to the east coast
on 80m, hi.
