[3830] W1AW QRP--ARRL CW SS

[Zack Lau]

W1AW QRP (op W1VT)  yes, thats ARRL HQ in CT

518 x 76 = 78,736 

missed NE, YT, and PAC 

Highlight--working WY, VI, and NL Sunday in just 10 
minutes--hunting mults is great fun if you can keep the rate up.

Since I wasn't fully recovered from my trip to Sandusky Ohio for
the Microwave update the previous weekend (about 1250 miles of 
driving), I kept it simple and just ran the Heathkit HW-9 that 
cost me $160 plus another $60 for a 400 Hz CW crystal filter.

Last year Jay did great handling the SSB pileup--I was able
to work him with 4 watts to a Force 12 C3 at 60 ft--Zack W1VT
