Final Score = 453,348 points.
Going to sound like a broken record, but "what a fun contest".
Too bad for K9PG, I had (slightly) more QSO's than he did (again).
Also, my best 60 minutes was a 133 (on 80M) and Paul's best was a 120
on 160M.
We swapped the bands this weekend:
Station 1: WE9V op
FT-1000MP 100W 20 & 80M
5/5/5/5 on 20M, 3 el M^2 on 80M, 2 2-wire beverages
Station 2: K9PG op
FT-1000MP, 100W 10, 15, 40 & 160M
5/5/5 on 10M, 6/6/6/6 on 15, 3/3 on 40M, Lazy V for 160, shared bevs
It's kinda neat that just on 20 and 80M, I had 911 x 113 = 103K.
Paul had 854 x 144 = 123K. Not too bad of scores for only half the
bands.
Every dang SSB contest I run into some stubborn W2 or K2, or whatever,
that comes on and starts talking Spanish to a couple other stations.
He's EXTREMELY persistant, and of course claims that he's been there
forever. I, of course, have been there forever... 2.5 hours on that
exact frequency, somewhere about 14.268. It's probably the same jerk
that gave me so much grief for SS. Just fires up, 200Hz away, then
when you finally get his attention, he claims that you are intentionally
interfering with him. They go away for a while, then an hour or so later,
come right back, same BS. (Venting completed.)
80M got terribly slow the last two hours. Less than a 50 rate per radio
is dog slow. So...to combat this problem, I went into the DX window and
worked a few Europeans that were calling CQ. On SSB...with 100W...from
Wisconsin. Very neat. Got great signal reports as well. Worked DJ7AA,
DF4PL, YU1XA, S59A, RK2FWA and YV1AVO. Points are points. I should have
called CQ DX, but thought I could get more Qs sticking to working NA.
Congrats to K6LL for a killer 15M line which helped his win and a new
all-time #8 NAQP (claimed) score.
I see from surfing the FOX site, that we also edged out KW8N's Jan '94
multi-op score and now unoffically have the #3 all-time high multi-op
score. FYI, #1 and 2 are (from the days of the high bands):
WB5VZL 598,404 1/94 (now K5TR)
W0AIH 463,681 1/94 (WE9V, KA9FOX, ex-N0BSH ops)
And thanks and congrats to the K5TR team for the close competition.
They got to an early 100+ QSO lead on us, but with no 10M and poor 15M,
they didn't get as big of a lead as they could have. We didn't worry too
much because of the impending low band time ahead. Sure enough, we over-
came the deficit due to the low bands to come back for the possible win.
Q totals were close. Killer 20M line guys, and the biggest surprise is
the 80M mults. WOW!! See George, you don't have to worry about the
3el 80M beam!!
And speaking of 10M, what a change from CW weekend! 103 x 25 for CW and
1 x 1 for SSB. Yikes!!
Anyone know what's up with the W5WMU multi-four?? Do they just do that
for fun and give out the LA mult??
