Comments:

My goal for this contest was to pick up new band-states for CW WAS via LoTW.
To facilitate this goal, I used my SB220 amplifier at 800W and made a few spots
from packet making this a Check Log Entry.  

New CW states were IN on 10M (need DE ND RI WV), AR KS ME NY WI on 15M (need KY
MO NE WY), have CW WAS on 20M, NE completed 40M WAS, still need NE and WY on
80M, have CW WAS on 160M via LoTW.  

GREAT Backscatter on 10/15M and short skip on 20M.
Best 60 Minutes 112 QSOs on 40M.  80M Sloper worked amazingly well.
QRN was Very High on 160 and 80.  Activity Dropped Like a Rock in the last
hour.

Radio Icom 740 w/cascaded 500 Hz CW Filters plus SB220 at 800W (100W on 160M)
160M Inverted L
80M Elevated GP
40M Sloping 80M Dipole (NE) from 120ft. fed w/Ladderline plus Delta Loop E/W.
