Comments:

First couple of hours it was very hard to work anyone. Decided to go out for a
walk with my wife. Upon returning, I looked at the beam...what the heck??? Why
is it pointed at Europe...I was last trying to work California. Went in and
spun the rotator a few times. It is working...but previous winds had put the
antenna about 160 degrees out of phase (this is why you shouldnt use a TV
rotator on an HF beam). Relabled the rotator direction settings with masking
tape and the rate went up. Nice to work Alaska and Hawaii on 20m at 1230am our
local time. This TS2000 is a vast improvement over my TS680s. Last years score
was 8591.
