As a follow up to Mike, the status of the plaques are as follows:
All USA and Canadian plaques will be shipped this afternoon. All DX plaques
will be shipped in the morning. Although I have no claim at being a
professional photographer, I have a digital photo of each plaque and will be
emailing each sponsor, a photo of the plaque they sponsored.
I was able to get a new plaque for NX4XT and a new plaque for NY4N, which
will also be shipped this afternoon.
I am going to send 33 photos to Mike, which he will later put on the GQP web
page.
I sincerely thank all plaque sponsors. Ya'll were very prompt with the
information and the funding, which made my job very easy! Good luck to
everybody for next year's 50th GQP anniversary.

Subject: [SECC] Bonus Prize listing added to GQP
It looks like a slow news day on the SECC, so here is an update for filler.
Working with Gordon, K4OD and Jeff, KU8E, we have a listing and web update
for the Bonus prizes they pulled together.
I am amazed at the county totals these stations achieved.
Also, I had put Jeff, NY4N in Mixed when he submitted as CW, my error, and
it has been corrected.
This Makes Jeff the winner for that Rover Single Op CW slot, sponsored by
Larry, K4PIC.
Norm, W3DYA had been listed on initial posting, and Jeff spotted my err.
Notes to/from both of these Gents reveal a great spirit of sportsmanship!
The scores on the above incident were so close, I had to really check them
out.
Jeff had a good score as submitted, Norm was docked 3032 points in the final
posting.
Since Norm had 1516 Qs (!) it looked like a multiplier was dropped
(1516x2=3032)... and that turned out to be the case.
Norm had received a "DC" on a Q and it was logged as a mult. We lump DC (or
MDC) and MD into MD for GQP.
That 3032 points would have again changed the lead. That is if Jeff didn't
have a DC mult in the bag too.
These details were listed in the Score Errors page, and was where I looked
first for the clues.
Next year we plan to separate DC and MD as mults, and scores will be
cleaner.
This is the most common of the score corrections in the process, probably 20
logs.
Matt, K4AQ spotted a couple of typos, and had an edit to offer, all were
done.
A couple note were received about multiple entries by a very few stations.
The current rule allows as many as 3 entries, but this too will be tweaked
for next year, the rule is flawed and allows multiple counting of Qs.
No discredit to the station submitting, it is the current rule.
With the bonus prizes listed the posting is complete, but if anyone spots a
bug, please contact me for fixes.
Tommy has plaques on the way, Certificates will go next, Bonus prizes are
still ripening in the fields, but will go when they can.
That's it for a while, thanks again to all for the great support for the
event.
73,
