Radio 1  FT-840  w/MMTTY and WF1B RTTY 5.02
Radio 2  TS-430s AEA CP-1 
Power Output: 75 watts

Tried SO2R for the first time.  The station worked pretty good
for the meager set-up I was using.  Made 67 contacts on the 2nd
radio.  Got into working the 2nd radio and probably violated a
bunch of band change rules :-) Oh well, I guess I'll be
re-classified as a single-op/multi-op entry this time.  Don't
care tho' cause I had fun learning how to do it.  Only got to
operate part time Saturday and about an hour Sunday.  Band
conditions were great, especially on 10 meters.  It was just as
easy to work stations with 75 watts as it is with the amp.  Think
I'll just leave it off from now on.  Fun to work all the
regulars!  Thanks to CQ and RTTY Journal for a fun contest.  73
