Antennas:
  SteppIR DB-18 @ 70 feet
  80M half sloper, 80 dipole
  Hi-Z 3-element steerable vertical Rx array
I am using a K3 and Alpha 87A borrowed from K8JW while my Elecraft K3 and
KPA1500 are out for repair.

It took a while to get the kinks out of the N1MM+ to WSJT-X 2.0 interface. Every
time when switching to FT8 mode, I set N1MM_ rig control to "None" and
in "Open Log ..." I set Mode to DIGITAL (not RTTY). To return to RTTY,
I reversed these two settings.  At the end of the contest, I set the mode to
DIGITAL and executed Tolls / "Rescore Current Contest" to be sure all
the FT8 contacts are reflected in the score. This was a bit clumsy. I wish there
was a single key to switch modes.

I had to stop short of the end due to a failed coax jumper. I will fix that this
week.
