1/2 Wave 80M Sloper > 45°

Amp :  Ten-Tec Titan

Soapbox : I installed the Ten-Tec Titan for the first time since 1995 for
this contest. My first hour was S&P - trying to get the CW cobwebs out of my
head (don't think I did it!) - and bumping up the amp a little at a time
till I got it to about 900W and left it there. From that point on it was
operate on again off again - some CQ, some S&P.

With just a little over an hour left to go, I was missing WV and MB, and
started S&P again. At 0050Z I found N8II on 7018 and just needed MB, More
S&P yielded nothing else except another WV - K8JQ at 0138Z also on 40M -
"just in case". But no sweep!

N1MM has me operating for 10:14, but didn't include the last hour or so that
I was unsuccessfully looking for MB


  I have observed all competition rules as well as all regulations
  established for amateur radio in my country. My report is
  correct and true to the best of my knowledge. I agree to be
  bound by the decisions of the Contest Committee.
