In a previous post to the group I posted our results. In case you missed 
it, I a copying it into this message:

TOTAL      911           1070         276

SCORE   295320

The 902-2304 contacts netted us 42 qso points and 10 multipliers. If we 
subtract those from the score, we get 1028 qso's times 266 multipliers 
for 273448 points. In other words, the microwave contacts were good for 
21872 additional points to the score. Based on the claimed scores 
posted, we would still be 7th if we had submitted as Multi-Limited.

The claimed results for Multi-Limited:

7     K8CC        MULTI-LIMITED    MI          254172

With even just a bit of improvement in the microwave operations, we will 
reap big dividends. We could also make some significant progress if we 
would make sure to arrange some schedules for 144-222-432 with grids 
that are within reach, but not often worked. I will be looking to pull 
that information out of the logs next.

I hope this is food for thought.

Cheers,
Brian
