I should have also said that Rich,  K1CC was the guest op
here for some of the contest;  Rich "ran" pretty constantly 
on 28020, plus/minus just a little bit.  Was going at close to 
100 Q's per hour rate in the  afternoon, KH6 time --2300 to 
0200 UTC.  He did work K1ZZ,  Dave S. of the ARRL among
others,  wish could have stopped and gotten a "critical"
eval of the Orion CW signal from Dave,  but neither were
into ragchewing at the time,  hi.  Rig was using the 5mSec
rise/fall times for the CW signal;  seems just perfect!!

73,  Jim  KH7M
