As you can see by the times on and off That Sunday was the pitts until
the last two hours.  Too bad, after working JA's at 10 AM local time
Saturday, I thought that the test would be a good one.  Well, it was
fun, anyway, and I did not get as tired that way.

I did learn that you can run an amplifier for almost 24 hours after
smelling smoke before it quits.  Had to change amps Sunday afternoon
when a resistor started arcing like an arc lamp. 

The WF1B program 4.0 has some new quirks which take getting used to, but
it worked like a champ.  Thanks again Ray for a good product.
