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 the 2020 ARRL DX CW. 

At start, 40m. was good to EU; N3UM got 253 Qs 00-04Z, 201 of them 
running. On 80m. it was slow but steady; W3GB hit all workable spots 
on the band map, mults first, and got 148 Qs by 0544Z QRT. We then  
had 142 mults on both bands. 

At 1421Z Sat. 20m. was good; N3UM got 54 Qs and 47 mults in 1 hr, 
mostly EUs. He then had a non-radio obligation till 0040Z. 

W3GB got on 20m. 1640-2300Z for 163 Qs and 44 mults. At 23Z we had 
91 ctys on 20m, 86% of our final 106. 

After 0040Z we were both on. N3UM got 86 Qs on 40m. by 02Z, 25 
running. Then from 02-04Z he found 160m. good; he got 100 Qs and 
53 ctys. W3GB made 87 Qs on 80m. and 13 on 40m. by 05Z QRT. 

N3UM got on 20m. Sun. AM 1350-1630Z. He had meant to run EUs, but 
never did since clicking spots was so fast; 186 Qs at 70/hr! There 
were no good run freqs anyway. Many of the CQing EUs were 100W, 
some even 5W. 

>From 18Z to the end, each of us jumped among 3 bands, 40, 20, 
and 15m, and for no reason we each made exactly 117 Qs. W3GB was 
on 18-00Z and got the most Qs and some rare mults on 20m. N3UM 
was on 1915-2230Z and got the most Qs on 40m. We each got ~half 
of the 15m. Qs and mults. 

Our claimed score in 26.5 hrs. was above ours of 2019 in 30 hrs, 
but a bit below that of 2018 in 29.5 hrs.
