Comments:

>From high in the jet stream above beautiful downtown Preston, the crack
operating team of N9ADG, K7BTW, and a dog named Jordan, using the call K7BTW,
kicked butt in the ARRL RTTY Roundup.

Despite high winds on Saturday, snow on Sunday, a killer prototype SteppIR
antenna that was mounted in the wrong direction,  a computer that keep freezing
up, and terrible band conditions, this artful team of crafty ops perfected the
technique of doing power S&P in addition to their time proven running abilities
to achieve a score unparalleled in modern Eastern King County history.

Thanks to the SteppIR prototype, the stations on 40 meters just kept rolling
in.  The SteppIR was used on all bands, except 80 where a dipole did the job. 
And, unlike last year, no amps blew up.

The 30 hour contest allows for only 24 hours on the air.  The dynamic Trio
(counting Jordan),  averaged over 50 q's per hour for the entire period of
operating. 

It was wall to wall stations, so if you don't do rtty, you are missing a lot of
fun.
