Comments:

K3CCR is the club station at the Collington continuing-care retirement 
community at FM 18OW in MD, just east of DC. N3UM and W3GB operated 
Multi-2 in CQ DX SSB, with 6 ft. and plexiglas between chairs, and masks. 

Our goal was to beat our 2019 CQ DX SSB result. We did that, with 0.95 X 
the mults but 1.25 X the Q points for 1.19 X the 2019 claimed score. 
We also beat our best CQ SSB claim, in 2017. 

With Kp of 3 or 4 for most of the test and SFI of 72, condx were poor on 
160 and 80 M, fair on 40 M, but good on 20, 15, and 10 M. We clicked 
spots for the first 3 hrs 00-03Z and got 192 total Qs and 124 mults, 
with N3UM on 20 and 80 M and W3GB on 40 and 20 M. From 03-0530Z 40 and 
80 M were slow for W3GB, but he got 46 more Qs and 28 mults. 

Early Sat. AM EDT 1148-14Z N3UM got 137 Qs on 20 M in 2.2 hrs, mostly 
EUs. For the next 8.8 hrs 14-2248Z we were both on the high bands with 
offset breaks, and did well; 150 Qs on 20 M, 138 on 15 M, and 18 on 10 M. 

But, low bands were poor in the 6.2 dark hrs 23-0512Z, just 100 Qs; 45 
on 40 M, 46 on 80 M, and 9 on 160 M. Alone for 2.2 hrs till QRT, N3UM 
got just 38 of those Qs, much like W3GB’s 46 Qs in 2.5 hrs till QRT 24 
hours earlier. 

Early Sun. AM 1045- 1610Z W3GB got 172 Qs in 5.4 hrs; 116 on 15 M, 45 
on 20 M, 8 on 40 M, and 3 on 10 M. N3UM got 17 Qs on 10 M by 17Z; we 
were then QRT 17-18Z. 

In the last 6 hrs we scraped up 25 Qs on 10 M, 28 Qs on 15 M, and 22 on 
40 M. But 20 M was best; 117 Qs, 72 by N3UM in the last 3 hrs, 56 of 
them running, including 5 loud VKs answering via long path! 

We got 114 countries; on 15 M, 5H, 5T, 6W, 7Q, 9G, A4,6,&7, FR, and OD!
