For the record, in the WRTC2018 selection area that includes New England,
only one of the three winners operated in New England.
One operated from the middle of Pennsylvania (225 miles WEST of New York
City). The other operated from the suburbs of Washington, DC.
Furthermore, the Pennsylvania op lived in Boston and traveled TO
mid-Pennsylvania to operate in contests.
Probably a good thing that these ops didn't realize that they had "no
chance in hell" to win.
