SoapBox:
All time best for me. Just picked up a "new" TS-440 and it performed much
better than my TS0-140. Highlights were working KH7R on Topband, getting
ZL and VK on 40 and finding 9X0A all alone on 20 Meters at 2320. Kinda
cool. Managed a few good runs (as well as 100 watts and a 160 dipole will
allow for HI) until the frequency grabbers showed up. Overall a good
contest.
