222 conditions pretty good tonight, worked: 
K2RMX FN20, KC2KAE FN20, K1WHS FN43, WC2KFM29, 
WA3NUF FN20, K1TEO FN31, W1AUV FN32, WA1MBA FN51, 
WA1NLG FN41, WB2VVV FN41, N1SV FN42, W9KXI FN12, 
N1JEZ FN44, K3SK FM07, KA1OJ FN42, and KA3FQS FN20.
Unfortunately disaster struck after only an hour of fun, 
I was calling on SSB when the amp made a  PFFT noise, 
output went to zero and then came the smell of smoke. 
Obviously neither the W6PQL protection board 
nor the fuses did anything. This if the 3rd time this 
amp has fried itself for no good reason. I give up.
