               Rig : SO2R -Pro II and FT-1000MP with Alpha 8410 and SB-220

          Antennas :  4 element SteppIR at 72', CL-33 at 40', HV6, and 
40 meter V at 60'

           Soapbox : I only operated for 13 hours, off and on, during 
the contest. Propagation to EU was terrible. I  couldn't                 
             hear/print most of the DX from that direction. Highlight of 
the test was working all states and having                             
VP8NO and North Dakota answer my CQ. Murphy hit again, as I lost the HV6 
on Sunday afternoon. It's                         probably another 
ceramic capacitor like last year.
