This has been one of the best contest weekends in memory. Propagation
seemed better than the numbers indicated and participation was high.
This contest marked my first time to work BV, VR2 and VQ9 on any band.
Our goal to beat was my previous high SO LP score (which was a section
winner) of 529X236= 373K. We beat that record
with almost exactly 24 hours to go. Special thanks to Ron, N4LKE, for
racking up an uncommon number of QSO's on the graveyard shift and Linda,
KF4GKN, for her usual support activities. In addition to our operators,
we had the following visitors: N4KCH, AD4QP, NF4G and
NW4Q.....uh...KF4RKV too if you can count her : )

It was fun activating the club call for the first time...thanks, Kirk.
It is a little bunglesome but
the "Germany" at the end helps sometimes.
By the way, I am thinking about changing my call to QRZ and suing all
the people
who are constantly bootlegging it. You know who you are.
73,
Lee (NY4T)
