Comments:

Based on the experiences collected in this year's CW section we were facing the
challenge to improve RX in the short term: we've extended the Northwest
Beverage to reach 350m.
That paid off indeed: this time NW signals on the Beverage were clearly better
than on the Vertical, so while conditions were poor to average we had a good
opening during the 2nd night and reached 26 States.
A big thank you to all the Team, but to all DX-Cluster spotters as well: unlike
CW, in this low-rate contest being spotted by someone becomes critical. 

Maybe time to legalize self spotting to reduce the gap to RBN-based assisted CW
? That would surely boost motivation and very likely increase scores.
