Comments:

Thanks to Ed, W5TM for the use of his very FB station!

Used a FT1000MP MarkV for the first time. It works just like the original MP, 
maybe a bit better.

Had an unexpected off time of 20 minutes during the 3rd and 4th hours due to
a problem with the 80 meter open wire tuner which hurt the 80 meter QSO total.

Got off to my best start ever during the 1st hour.
Left 20 meters too early, but could not find new guys to work.

Made 6 band changes (only planned on 2).

Hours were: 93/76/69/69

Radio: FT1000MP MarkV + Titan Amp
20M: 4 el at 130' West + 3 high stack of C3's at 30'/60'/90' East
40M: 2 el Cushcraft at 140' East
80M: Dipole at 70'

We'll try again in Feb!

73,
Tim K3LR
