[VHFcontesting] Final(?) compilation of September ARRL VHF Top Grid Counts by band (most higher than June)

Tue Feb 15 17:48:59 EST 2005

Thanks to Curt, K9AKS, sharing his compilation of September
VHF Contest results from 1983-1998 with me and some digging
of my own to fill in some information for 1999-2001, I can
now provide an update for September Grids Worked records.

June is definitely the time of year for 50 MHz...nothing in
September has come close to the 270 for Single-op and the
279 for Multi-op. For the higher bands, however, September
seems to be the time to maximize Grids worked.

This is ONLY for September and will look best if printed
with a monospaced Font (such as Courier).

Band    Top SO    Grids  Year      Top Multi  Grids  Year

50      W3XO/5     149   1994       KB5IUA     150   1994

144     K5WPN      115   2004       WS4F       114   1986
                                    AA9D       114   1992

222     VE3AX       53   2001       K8GP        70   1998
        K3EAR(K9PW) 53   2004

432     K5UR        66   1992       K8GP        85   1998

902     WA8WZG      28   1999       K8GP        41   2001

1296    W2CNS       32   1992       K8GP        51   2001
        WA8WZG      32   1997
        WA8WZG      32   1998

Thanks again to Curt for the 'heavy lifting' (his
compilation of the history since the transition from
Sections to Grid Squares as multipliers) and to the ARRL
for the Scores Databases and PDFs of QST results.

Any comments, corrections, etc. are welcome.

73, JK
