I just punched in the furthest location I used in January, EM72PU. It was 95 miles.
Looks like I’m in the circle. Thats assuming I do something similar this next time.

I also punched in some other spots I have been considering that are a bit further away.
They also seem to be within 175mi.

There are a couple that are just outside the circle but these are just in the thinking stages and not something I will be considering soon.

We are all going to operate from our home stations and then combine our scores for the contest club competition. Please get on the air for the contest. When you submit your log be sure to put Fourlanders down as your club.
