3/1  
 
The final score will look like:
 
(2 x QSOcw + QSOssb) x power_mult + bonus_points = final_score
 
(2 x 767 + 385) x 2 + 450 = 4288, class 1A.  
 
This is not a record breaking score by any means, but not tragic considering
that the bands did not cooperate and we had some cranky equipment at the
start of the contest.  The Sun was not kind during FD, as reported by NOAA:
