Darn, I'm only 60 and I almost matched your score today.
If I had gotten that ball through the windmill....I could have been a contender.

Congrats...I'm impressed.

Thanks for all the replies. The prize goes to Chen, W7AY and Ron, K0IDT
for
figuring out what was wrong with my signal receive during the SARTG
contest.
. I took the Paragon manual and went through all the settings. Boy, is my
face very red. When I got to the passband setting, it was way off. I
reset
it and everything is working fine now.
It was quite an experience trying to work a RTTY contest with no filters.
I
was so frustrated Saturday that I did not think to check all the rig
settings. Another one of life's lessons learned the hard way.

The 81 I shot this morning was my best score this year. Shame on Shelby for
asking what I shot on the back 9. ( it was a 40 on the back 9 Shelby).
Also, Jims comment about getting the score off the cluster did not dampen my
excitement. Anytime a 78 year old can shoot an 81 for 18 holes he should and
will brag about it. Just wait until I break 80.

I have yet to hear from anyone who has a IC-7800. I have a friend that just
got his and needs help in setting it up. If anyone can help, please let me
know and I will put them in contact with W0BYH.

See you in the CQWW. And please, tell me if I have a bad sig
