Comments:
There was a lot of local participation in the multi-site NU1AW/5 effort here in
Texas, and I had some serious last-minute remorse about my decision to enter as
a single-op. But there were plenty of ops lined up to hand out the IARU mult,
so I stayed with my original plan.
My pre-contest goals and results:
1. Stay in the chair for 24 hours (check)
2. Improve my 2nd-radio contribution (netted +9% QSOs)
3. Work NU1AW/5 and W1AW/6 on 6 bands (check)
4. Achieve > 2000 QSOs x 200 mults (close but ..)
5. Have fun (double-check!)
Big thanks to George K5TR for another opportunity to utilize his amazing
station.
