[BCVHFA] Field day score update

[Ernie Howard]

I did preliminary calculations for bonus points and added up our score for 
2005 field day. The list below shows a comparison of scores for the last 4 
years. Data from previous years came from the ARRL field day contest results 
web page. Keep in mind that this years 'score' is a claimed score. The ARRL 
may adjust it if they don't like our bonus info submission, or if some of 
our QSOs are bad.

Year	Points	Contacts 	Power used
2005	5474	1387		100
2004	4166	793		100
2003	3972	899		100
2002	4883	3025		1500

Note that in 2004 we lost over 300 contacts on the phone stations due to a 
database corruption. So we were well on our way to over 1000 contacts, but 
the results don't show it.....

I also ran across last years 'soap box' comments that I wrote up for the 
ARRL web page.

This page includes pictures from the 2003 field day. I'll work on submitting 
another page for 2005. If anyone has some appropriate pictures that you 
think would be of interest to our 'soap box', please forward them to me.
