MakrLOTWhen RTTY Contest (Makrothen with LOTW in the middle)

For the first time in a long time, we finally got some reasonably good
band condix for a contest weekend.  The 20m opening to Europe on Saturday
morning was the best in recent memory.

My operating time was limited.  My wife and I attended a funeral for a
wonderful woman named Ruth, so that cut short my time in the second period.  

I worked 4 new ones - Ukraine on 40M, and G, ON (already QSL on LOTW), and DL
on 20m.

I finally got around to using my MFJ-784B filter for RTTY. Huge improvement 
on receive.  That filter does little for me on CW and SSB, but it is a
keeper for RTTY!

There is a CW OP on 40m who now got on RTTY, and is now lecturing us that
7030 to 7040 is for QRP CW ONLY in the US.  He broadcasted this without ID
of course.

I had 111 QSOs eligble for the LOTW RTTY contest.  Scoring that will be a
nightmare.  Might just do a checklog, since I did not log any states, even
though I gave out my 599 CA.

Rig: FT-990
Antennas:   80 meter dipole sloped from 50 feet
            40 meter dipole up 50 feet
            20 meter VE7CA wire beam pointed East up 25 feet
            15 meter dipole up 20 feet

Software:  N1MM + MMTTY - loved it

CU in JARTS next weekend
