Thanks to Brian for putting the log together again.  A couple of comments.
I believe that this is a record score for the Fourlanders operating from
Mile High Campground.  According to our website (w4nh.org or
fourlanders.org) our previous record was in June 2000 (212,852).  If you
subtract the microwave contacts from the log our limited multi score would
have been 231,287.  Still a record.  The microwave contacts added
approximatly 41K points to our score.  Not bad but it could have been
better.  There were several 903 Qs we missed out on because they could hear
us but we couldn't hear them.  Not sure if it was because of propagation,
blockage or our TX on 903 is a lot better than our RX.  We once again missed
out on making a 3456 Q.  There are only a couple of folks in the North GA,
East TN, West NC area who have that band and we never hooked up with them.
It looks like we are going to have to equip a rover with that band to ever
get Q.  Are you interested Robin?  Good job to all who participated.  It is
now time to start thinking about September but that will be the subject of
another email.
