Comments:

I'm too cheap to pay for parking near the shack.  Therefore, it's about a
25-minute walk.  I wasn't about to haul my own radio over there;  so, I used the
club's radio which lacks a CW filter.  We weren't able to get access to the roof
to install a full-size 160 meter antenna for the contest.  So, I loaded-up a
40-meter dipole about six stories up.  My tuner is rated at 300W; so, I didn't
use the amp...but, I worked everybody I heard anyway.  S9+10 noise in the city
made running tedious, so I was 99% S&P. 

There were a lot of good ears in the contest.  Thanks for the QSO's, guys...

73,

--Ethan, K8GU.
