[Mldxcc] CQP: Mults & Motivation

[John Miller]

At the last NCCC meeting, there were several questions regarding  
Multipliers from the 2007 CQP contest.  Matt, WX5S, has compiled  
detailed information on mults, QSOs, rankings, etc. from last year's  
logs.  Contact him if you need full data.

For an excellent overview on the top participants for each Multiplier,  
review K6TD's very complete 2007 CQP report found on our website:  http://www.cqp.org/results/2007/07complete.pdf

I enjoyed reading this report again but for a different reason -- the  
many (+) Soapbox comments.  Some of my favorites:

"Every year I do better than the year before!!  Great contest and at  
age 66 and a ham for 52 years, this is one of the greatest!!  K5QQ"
"Great Contest and tradition for Contest Club Ontario. VE3RER"
"What a great contest!  Thanks gang for all your efforts to make it so  
very successful.  W7SW"
"Funniest moment....In the middle of my calling CQ: CQP, November Six  
Oscar Oscar, my lovely XYL comes in the shack and tells me "You're  
doing it wrong dear, today is October Sixth, not November Six"..What a  
sweetheart!   See you next year.  Tony, N6OO."
"First QSO Party!   So much Fun!!!   KG6SKA"
"Had a great time working all those FB California ops.!   W2TB"
"Loads of fun.  NE4M"
"K2, 5W, verticals.  Great ops in CA. Thanks for working a weak  
signal!   VA3RKM"
"Great contest despite poor band conditions.   K0GSV"
"Always the best QSO Party - great ops!   VE4YU"
"This was my first time to work the CQP.  I had a blast and cannot  
wait until next year.  KE5KWD"
"Thank you for putting on a great party as always.  KS8O"

There's nothing more motivating than reading these comments from our  
fellow contesters, who year after year confirm that CQP is really The  
Best State QSO Party in the country.
