K3 - KPA500 and wires

Wow! 20 meters was pretty good from here in GA. Can't remember ever working two
VE8's (let alone one) and a VY1 ever in a sprint! Missed IA, NJ(!), NM and HI
for WAS. Missed AB, BC and MB (Heard one but never hooked up) in Canada. Worked
CM, KP2 and KP4 in the Caribbean.

The amp helped, but running just 500 watts still get beat out a lot. Had some
type of problem with my 40 meter antennas. One end of the NW/SE dipole fell
down and the SWR was high and it was unusable with the amp. Some RF or
something was
getting in to the KPA500 when using the zepp on 40 meters and the SWR would
jump and trip the amp.

Don't like SSB contests that much anymore but this one was fun with the good
activity.
