Comments:

Last minute decision to do the contest. Set up rig and PC logging within 15
minutes of contest -- fortunately everything worked as it should.  No Murphy
visits at all!

W6 was loud on 20m at start and I was getting good reports at 5 watts, so
decided to try my hand at QRP again, as I did in February.  Lots of requests
for fills on 80m, which was a bit disappointing -- was I really that weak?

Chased WW2Y around 80 for over an hour before putting him in the log at 03:57z
for my 40th mult.  Heard K0OU in MO, but we never connected. VEs were
noticeably absent, except for VE3EJ (thanks John!).  Thanks to KM3Tomato for
getting on from VP9 -- worked 3 bands!  

* FT-1000MP @ 5w (per 20w scale of Autek WM-1)
* Force 12 C4XL (2 ele on 20m and 40m) @ 95 ft.
* Force 12 EF-180C Rotatable Dipole on 80m @ 105ft.
* TR-Log

See you next weekend, with the amp ON!
