HI Doug! Thanks for the "The Rest of the Story"!
To be fair, there is a bit more...
There are even more CQWWCC members who operated here for ARRL Phone,
including Pat, N9RV.
Scotty, N3RA (hasn't missed a K3LR multi multi during the past 6
years), Phil K3UA and John VE3EJ. Having 4 CQWWCC members on the team
was great!
Lots of WRTC talent doesn't hurt either....
The secret to good scores is skilled, dedicated operators, no matter
where your QTH is.
73,
Tim K3LR
