Comments:

For years I've operated with a double rack full of monoband amps for 160-10,
allowing me the luxury of no-tune instant band-changing.

This year the rack is down and other commitments prevented making repairs. I
think ARRL CW two weeks ago is the first time ever I've used an all-band amp
(my Alpha 89)requiring manual band-switching and retuning. It is a different
experience and not very effective for an SO2R entry.

I used my Orion as the second radio on 15 meters, and as a spotting RX on the
other bands. It added 69 Q's to the total on 15.

Conditions were good. 40 meters is almost fun when we can work so many
transceive. 20 meters just roared. The 3-stack of 204BA's helped separate the
wave angles when "sharing" the frequency with other stateside stations (and
maintaining 100+/hr rates). Missed another half dozen or more 10 meter mults
because of feed problem on the high yagi (and a thief looking for salvage
busted up my low 10m yagi just after ARRL CW). But at least 10 opened up
finally Sunday afternoon and we snagged a few.
