[SECC] SC QSO Party Results

[knason00]

Hi Dave. 

I did the state party just to give those people outside SC another state and/or county. It seemed Todd did a lot of work on it and wanted to support his and the club's efforts too. 

I worked the SCQP one other time and did not like it. You only received mult credit for SC counties. What I heard from SC stations was exactly what John said. SC stations talking to  themselves on 40 and 80 meters while waiting for the SC rovers to reach the next county. Not what I enjoy and I'll hazard a guess it was not what people outside SC wanted either. 

Having mult credit for both states and in state counties would be better, but has similar problem.  I think it likely you would still have SC ops sitting more on 40/80 as odds of snagging a mult is higher. That means less SC stations available for the out of staters during the day and probably less overall activity as a result. Few casual contesters, either in or out of state, will stay up late until the low bands go long. 

Your idea of awards sounds interesting.
