Thanks for the comments. I was able to spend a lot more time on the NAQP
than I had originally thought possible.
Due to neighborhood restrictions, I have the same antenna on every band.
Basically an invisible (or nearly so) 40 meter dipole. Between the tuner in
the rig and an old MFJ tuner, I'm able to load up on every band, except for
160. I was quite pleased with how well it performed during the contest on
80m. I managed to work W7CT in Utah on 80 with the barefoot TS570D so I
guess it was radiating some RF.

Way to go, Kent! Great score!
What sort of antenna do you have on 40m?
