[SEDXC] GQP Final

[Michael Condon]

Good Morning,

I just posted new logs and soaps... 455.
77,000 Qs. ... My My...
I think many folks made all 51 US mults too.
21 Party Pioneers joined in.  Amazing.
100 (+) K4OD/K4BK GEORGIA awards to check!
15473 Qs by the 1x1 stations!  Some coordinating work paid off.

AND, we did have all 159 on the air and in logs submitted!
FIRST TIME...
This has been our most elusive target.
What a great time to get it done.... all 159 in the books.
The early postings of the home stations, clubs, and special event 
stations really helped the rovers to run the needed roads.

John has one big log for entry, and I have a few notes for late logs out that 
may yet arrive.
But in a we will put an all time record GQP in the books for certain.

There was a flurry of NFARL folks who were prompted to get logs in.
NFARL is large again for club participation. Thanks.
W4NZ rover pix are new on the front page.

We will be checking the scores and award lists over the next few weeks.
The goal for publishing it all is mid to late June.
Some actions will probably start well before that though.

Thanks to all the sponsors, clubs, GA participants, Rovers from all over, and 
the GQP 50 Team.

Mike
