W9WI SS CW SOLP

[Doug Smith]

*Approximate* band stats:
80 - 446
40 - 121
20 - 225
15 -  46

I realize this doesn't add up -- don't have the band splits with me.

896 x 78 = 139,776

My first sweep ever from my own station.  Also the first time I've had
resonant, coax-fed, antennas for all bands.  First time the computer stuff
worked properly throughout the contest.  Did get worried about 1300Z when
the rig went deaf -- thankfully, it was just a shorted footswitch...

Finished the sweep with KH6 about 1700Z; KL7 and NNY were the 2nd and 3rd
last.  40 seemed too long; couldn't hold a run frequency.  80 was the prize
band.

Gear:   Kenwood TS-680 (NOT an adequate contest rig, hope my 940 gets back
soon!)
        Force C3 @ 65'
        40m dipole @ about 20'
        80m dipole @ about 55'
