K5ZD CW Sprint

80	82
40	110
20	119
Tot	311 x 42 = 13,062

Only thing I heard and missed was WB0O in NDak.  Was glad to get KL7.

This was "first" test of new station.  Connected amp for first time about
30 mins before contest.  

I can offer proof that 300 QSOs is within reach of the "normal" station.
Was using TH7DXX at 70 feet, 40m sloper toward the west, and 80m inverted
Vee (top at 65').  One radio, one L-4B with soft tubes.  Two band changes.
No magic.

Would be interested in signal reports if anyone can remember anything.
Just need help getting the mast up the 100 footer and will have a 2-ele
40 and 5-ele 20 to add to the mix.

See you all in the fall!

Randy, K5ZD
