Club: Western Washington DX Club

Equipment: Kenwood TS-140S, Timewave DSP9+, 386 running NA vers 10, 
Force-12 C-4 at 50', Alpha-Delta Sloper 40-80-160, Cushcraft R-7.

Comments:
Excellent conditions, excellent ops. What more could we ask for? 

Conditions were best I've seen here in Washington State in NAQP. First 
time out with the new C-4 and it compares favorably with the Cushcraft A3 
which it replaced plus better 40 meter performance compared to the 
sloper/R7. The DSP 9+ filter came thru for me again this time. When QRM 
moved in on top of me, the narrow filters allowed me to salvage the QSO's 
in process. For the most part, ops were very considerate and skilled. 

I took 3 half hour breaks when rate dropped below 50, then QRT'ed for the 
last 1/2 hour of the test. Regretted having to leave early when 80 meters 
turned out so good. My first time to exceed 100 Q's on 80.  

Thanks to all for a good time, and thanks to the sponsors who put all the 
work into tabulation of scores, etc.

73,

                Had to work the whole saturday with only 180 V 
                instead of 230 V, and lost the power completly 
                for more than 1,5 houres...
