Comments:

First time in SO Unlimited class, and first time in many years with more than
100w.  It was fun using the packet cluster filled bandmap in TRLog (v6.79),
especially since I have a function key (F10) mapped to "nextbandmap" command. 
When the runs slowed, it was neat to pick up the S&P rate by punching F10.  OK,
so this is 10 year old stuff to most of you... it's new to me!  It definately
helped get the sweep and to monitor band activity.  One of the 3 qso's on 15m
was VY1JA for the sweep.  Lacking a 15m antenna that I can turn (the KT34A is
fixed east at 37'), I used the XM240 2el 40m yagi at 95'.

CW SS is always lots of fun.  It's always a kick to hear guys giving out checks
with the year that I was born (58) and before.  I sure hope that I'm able to get
on and stir it up when I've got 50+ years in ham radio!

Thanks for the QSO's.

73,
Charlie  N9CO
