All,
Here are the results of my "Drive to Dayton" Contest. As you can see, I kept
the rate up pretty well, but were at times hampered by some nasty "Pileups". I
kept my Off-Times within the contest rules, and did not use any "Spotting
Nets". I adjusted times for the proper time zone. My logging software (that
performed the calculations) was Excel.
Fortunately, I have received ZERO QSLs for the trip!!
