Comments:
The above score include 36000 points for activating 36 counties, 1000 points for
working K5YAA in 10 different counties, 500 points for working N4CD in 5
different counties, and 500 points for working KS5A in 5 different counties.
As others have noted, band conditions were up and down. Many QSOs were at
whisper level, if the line noise at my location at the time was low. W5CT
never heard me (and others I heard calling) on 40m so missed out on a few
county mults as did they. From reading the other 3830 reports looks like I
should have devoted more time to 15m.
Everything in the mobile worked pretty well. At one point on Saturday I
thought my GPS had quit but discovered with all the bumps the power plug had
slightly slipped out of my power port Y adapter as had my computer power
adapter. So, that was a quick fix.
The following counties were activated:
