The mult report from Florida:
I worked all the mults I ever heard. Never heard NM or AR, which had two entries reported. I got the rest of Hal's heard list. I called W1NVT (Mitch/W1SJ) in Vermont, gave him an NA exchange, and he came back to give me name & number. I QSY'd to let him keep his VTQP frequency.
I got KL7SB and VY1CO on both 20 and 40. 
Thanks to NA8V for keeping MI from being rare. I worked Greg on three bands, but otherwise only got K8BB once.
The cool mult: I found a very slow K1AV CQing out on the edge of the activity. Slowed down and called him and got NR 4 from RI.
Fun, but after 30 minute NS Sprints, four hours seems long   :-)

I worked teammates K3LR and KW8N on 3 bands and W8WTS and K3UA on 2 
bands for a total of 10 contacts!  (Also got K8MR on 3 bands.)

44 mults used to be pretty good in this contest, but not any more.   I'm 
not sure why my mult total is so low this time.  Every single station in 
the top 50 HP stations worked more mults than I did, so lots of mults 
must have been available.

Mults heard but not worked:  SC, AK, NM, ZF and HI.  Mults never heard:  
ME, VT, RI, AL, OK, NV, UT, WV, ND and 9 out of 13 Canadian provinces.   
Amazing to work more VE5 than VE3 stations.

73, Hal W1NN
