Comments:

A couple of hours to shake down the station after tearing it down for FD and
IOTA.  

The noisy conditions made operating more like work and less like fun, so I
spent a lot of time listening and practicing 2 radio S&P, cherry picking the
stronger stations.  All of the home brew SO2R connections seem to be fine at
the 100w level.  Good enough.  Now only the most important open issue remains -
fix the operator!

The dipole pairs on 40m and 20m(each pair offset 90 degrees) are well worth
their space.  Lots of A/B compares between the antennas show there are times
they will really make a difference.

My 160m transmit antenna is back in the air, but didn't get a workout.  The
K9AY made operating 80m a lot more pleasant than rx on the transmit antenna.
