My numbers were: 1280 X 298 = 1,144,320 playin around...
But here's the best part. A few months ago, Tim K3LR and some Mercer 
County guys did a HamCram class and gave the exam at the end. My 
daughters boyfriend Jeff from Pgh passed his Tech there and rcvd KC3BYW. 
He came up this last weekend. I brought him to the shack Saturday and 
showed him how to do S&P in the contest and turned him loose on 28.300 - 
28.500 with about 80 watts. His line was 64 X 38 = 7296. He worked 38 
countries his first time on the air... Very cool! How many guys can say 
that! He worked several EU, at least one AF, some SA, KH6, KL7, VK, ZL, 
and a few JAs. Jeff and my daughter Sarah went with me to Aruba in Dec. 
2012 where I oped the 10M contest as P40CX. Jeff made contact this 
weekend with P40P who was at the house we stayed in. That was a 
highlight for him. I did submit his cab file.
