Comments:

Great conditions. Band was open longer than usual. Getting called by TF3GD was a
nice surprise late Sunday. Still a few hot-switching faults between the IC-7300
and ACOM 1500. But mostly resolved by buffering the amp key line to add more
delay.

Using two doublets NE/SW and NW/SE with corresponding beverage antennas. Fixed
the antenna tuning so the entire band required one setting and could switch
freely between antennas. This was a huge improvement. Very difficult working
into Asia with wire antennas but did manage Thailand and Japan. Maybe next year
we'll put up a beam. I say that every year.
