Two things probably had the most effect on the NAQP phone results:
1) The high bands were very good. The W6 and W7 guys were loud. Please
check back in January 2006 when they probably won't be quite so loud.
2) A lot of ops, contesters and non-contesters alike, have discovered that
these short, basically friendly events are a lot of fun. There are a lot of
ops east of the Mississippi. More people tuning the bands means more guys
to work...especially for those loud Westerners.
No rule changes needed.
