great work on the digital modes!  i thought i was going to help over there, but i got diverted to CW and they needed the help also.  4 transmitters was indeed the right size for 2008.  

was RTTY any more effective than PSK31 ?  were you able work all/most of the stations you found on the waterfall ?  any issues operating with the antenna you had (which was higher than the CW antenna that we had no issues with).  

the 20m interference myseriously disappeared as we ended our operations, according to our ears listening to Steve's K3.  so somehow it appears to have been us somewhere!  we had the same issues on CW later in the event.  

73, curt
