Overall, condx seemed to be pretty good. Had a great time on the bands where I
was. Nice to be called by BV, VU, and BA Saturday evening.
This weekend was a great example of what the Live Scores can do to the
competition. We were watching NQ4I, W2FU, and K1TTT all weekend. Most of the
time, either NQ4I or W2FU were ahead, sometimes as much as 500K, but no one
could stretch out the lead. Somehow, we managed to pull ahead Sunday
afternoon, probably on the strength of earlier 40 & 80M propagation to Europe
than the others, and the final claimed scores (or getscores totals) looked like
this:
KM1W 6678 X 593 11,796,549
NQ4I 6382 X 617 11,729,787
W2FU 6475 X 603 11,673,477
K1TTT 5977 X 590 10,504,950
The competition for MM 3rd place is going to come down to the UBNs! Seriously,
a great job by all 4 stations. It was also great to watch it play out on Get
Scores, as I was not able to play on Sunday due to a family commitment.
Thanks to everyone for the Qs! It was great fun!
