Comments:
First Sprint from the "vacation station" on Vashon Island, WA. I spent all day
getting a new Al-1200 amp assembled and the 220v power line installed. Then I
spent too much time during the sprint playing with the amp and tuning it!
Because the amp was patched in-line with different coax cables, it took longer
than usual to switch antennas and bands. I went to 80m too early and had to
return to 40m for awhile, so more fiddling and tuning... Otherwise the high
power seemed to help, and I got through first more often than when I run QRP.
Only one of the 80m sloppers working, and I was just too slow at finding new
stations, so room for improvement. Thanks for the contacts!
