Way to go John! Amazing when you operate with the 484 and manual tuning...
My best CWT was 69 Qs running the IC-751... and AEA-MM1 keyer with a
Vibroplex Brass Racer padlle... ..80w to dipoles at 10'. I'd love to break
100 one day. I prefer a one-band CWT - 40m... the points add up quickly.

Look for you in the upcoming contests.

73s, Dave AFP
