Comments:

Started off running 20 and S&P 15.  Was slow at first.  Took 2 hours to get 100
in the log.  So, I had a half hour lunch break.  Hit it again and the rate got
better.  The meter was over 150 for awhile.  15 never seemed to really open.  
By 4pm PDT I had 300 in the log so I grabbed dinner and had a full hour break. 
 I was hoping to hit the low bands hard afterward.  The low dipole didn't really
cut the mustard on 40 (I decided not to put up the K1WA sloper array for this
test).  Consequently, the low band totals are a little dissapointing.  It took
3.5 hrs to put another 130 Q's in the log.  Had a couple of good moves, but
still have to work on that.

It was fun though.  The NAQP's are becoming my favorite domestic tests.  Thanks
to Chris KL9A for inviting me to join the Corner Pocket team.

The setup for this one:

Radio #1: Elecraft K2/100
Radio #2: ICOM 751A

Antennas -
160/80 half sloper
Cloud warmer dipole on 40
3 el SteppIr at 25ft on 20
Cushcraft R7 on 15

80 x 60 foot lot.

CU in the CQWW 160 and ARRL DX CW/SSB.
