On SSB, the TR rate meter hit about 165/hour...during the E-
skip opening to the NE on Saturday night. My total
operating time CW and SSB was about 3 - 3.5 hours.

I don't do anything special...there are a few "birdies",
but not many, and not very loud. I think the key is having
the antennas installed outside...any time you've got indoor
antennas near the computers I think you'd have some
problems with interference between the radio and the
computers.
Good Luck!
