Tonight the QSO came from N1MX in MA.  I used the S20R and SW+.  I was able to use a dummy load to match my SW+ to the receive frequency of the Hallicrafters.  I received a 469 RST.  There is a lot of weather moving through tonight at causing a lot of QRN.  I would have been happy to get a QSO with using just the Small Wonder Lab transceiver.  Apparently the alignment of the TX/RX worked.  I think Mike is a Hallicrafters fan as well from looking at his QRZ page.  Tonight he was using his Icom 756.
I sent Mike an email with a picture of my set up and I asked how close my TX was to his RX.  I used the reverse beacon net to see my frequency.  It showed 7.029.
