Had some fun, not a serious effort. Was trying for a clean sweep and either I
was lucky or there were lots of mults on. Got the sweep Sunday morning, the
last 4 were DE, AB, EWA, then NL then afterwards I worked each of those 4
again. Did a lot of s&p for a while then got real thinned out so it was run
time. Didn't do a lot of so2r but was nice having two bands to swap back and
forth. I didn't notice until Sunday but I don't have QSK for some reason. Have
to figure that one out.

After initial encouraging so2r on 40/20, interference has crept in plus 80/40
have strange things going on after installing some stubs. I found that using my
OCF just has too much RF floating around. The GFI in the kitchen trips which
turns off my under counter light and my wireless phones both go into intercom
mode and commence beeping. Nightmare on elm street. I repaired my rg8x feed
line that goes to my rarely used 40 mtr sloper and that helped a lot. I need to
eliminate my multi band wires with associated single feed lines but probably
won\'t happen until the good wx returns. We have a work
