Comments:

Operated a few miles south of home, at N6LF [tnx Rudy for antennas and
hospitality].  Used his big SteppIR Yagi and 80 meter dipole high up in the fir
trees on the hilltop QTH.  

Used the new to me 756 Pro 2 and did so for first full time contest opportunity
since got it.  With Rudy's antennas and this radio, have my best claimed NAQP
RTTY score.  For the first time, ran hard on 40 and 80, and no problems with
QRM.  Radio was a rock.  As Pro 2 and Pro 3 users know, the spectrum scope made
band changes obvious [quick look and found a few Q's on 15, but zip on 10], and
when looking for a CQ freq on 40 and 80, snap.

Got very excited as approached 500 Q's, would be new territory for me in NAQP,
but could not buy a Q on 40 or 80 in last 4-5 minutes.  

Log on LoTW - still looking for that last WAS confirmation of MT.  Worked a
covey of MT stations, so now waiting for their uploads

Tnx to Rudy N6LF for the antennas and to all in the contest for the Q's.

ICOM 756 Pro 2 [Inrad roofing filter]
SteppIR Monster Yagi [15, 20, 40]
