Comments:

Used the new antennas! Lots of fun!
But, I wasted too much time switching between antennas to compare 
signals, and I need to tune the 80m sloper better, since high SWR kept 
kicking in the tuner and interrupting sending.

I couldn't find a straight key anywhere, so I left that to the other "7SS," 
and it was fun to be sending faster than him for once!

20m provided 18 QSOs in 13 minutes, so the new C-31XR is working.

40m was good with 19 QSOs in 13 minutes, and the mults were flowing - 13
Mults!
The new 40m yagi seems to be working really well.

80m was good for 2 x 2 in the last 2 minutes.

Heard lots of stations I never worked, W7WHY, K4RO, WD0T come to mind.
Thanks for the fun, I think I'm operator-limited, not antenna-limited :-)
