Congrats!

Bob...that is a great score for 5W!    I never heard a single VK or ZL on
80.   Only Oceania was a single KH6.

My new K2/100 amp got finished in plenty of time for the contest but my 80M
dipole is cut for SSB and the power on the KPA-100 folded back to 55W so I
had to use my Orion and the internal auto-tuner...Believe me...I'd rather
have used the K2!

I ran SOSB/80 LP with 149 Q's, 14 zones and 61 countries.   That was my
first serious effort in the CQWW in over 30 years!

100W on 80M was like pulling teeth....my hat is off to you for running 5W in
the CQWW!

I'm so strongly glad with the K 2 results during the CQWWCW Contest that I
can not resit the pleasure to
let the list know what I did, continents by continents ! I run QRP CW Mono
Band and only Oceania was absent of the
setup ! Why ???
