Comments:

My first high power contest and the linear dies just before the contest on 160,
80 and 40 meters. I have to operate on 80 and 40 with 200 watts output,
20-15-10  at a kilowatt out from a troublesome Amp Supply LK 500 ZA. 

Looks like some parasitics ate some of the bandswitch and tank coil.

Repairs are underway...before I am finished I'll know this amp like the back of
my hand.

My Inverted L for 160 will not load, so no 160 this time around.

Signals wall to wall on 20 meters. Nice to have propagation on 10 and 15. 

Rig: FT 1000MP Mk 5
Power output: 1 kw 20-15-10, 200 watts 80 and 40 :(
Ant Farm: 80 meter dipole at 50 feet
          40 meter dipole at 50 feet
          T10 log periodic at 53 feet
