Comments:

This was WQ6X's FIRST BARTG RTTY GiG running only QRP power.
With the recently added MFJ-993B IntelliTuner, the Yaesu FT-2000 can
easily match the 10-m 3-el Long John yagi, the 8JK-phased Cobra dipoles
and even a CH-250 vertical.
As in recent months, 10-meters was THE band in this contest.
While running 5-watts from this QTH is indeed quite a challenge,
the RBN stats verified the far-reaching nature of the WQ6X/QRP 
signal,even tho there were no manned stations in many of those areas.

My biggest frustration were the stations who would call-in OFF frequency
required me to ask for a callsign repeat in order to properly tune them in.
The problem is that by the time I finally had them tuned in, they would
give up and go somewhere else.  HuH?  Wazzat all about?
