DX conditions from AZ were not that great on 40 this weekend. Hence the
abnormally low mults. I also experienced some challenging flutter and
occassional multipath, both nights, which made this contest harder than it
should have been. 

Kept juggling the filters in MMTTY, sometimes linking both receivers, each with
different MMTTY filters and sometimes using antenna diversity as well. All these
efforts helped pull some calls in that were impossible with a single rx alone.
Hats off to the N1MM and MMTTY folks, and Elecraft, for making this all
possible and easy to implement. 

My fave filter in MMTTY still remains Fluttered FIR, but the five or so others
all had their moments as well.

Next stop here at N7AT will be CQWW DX SSB, Multi-Two.
