[CTSARA] Field Day Results

[ranceiii at aol.com]

Fred,

I agree,  based on the other results I've seen that this was a tough year to score points on VHF.  We certainly had an excellent antenna setup to exploit any openings if they were there.

We'll be ready for next year, hopefully conditions will be better.
73,

The best anyone did on VHF was about 150. There was only a brief opening and we 
issed it. Due to last minute glitch, I didn't get the reverse beacon monitoring 
oing that might have caught it. We could have gotten a few on 2 as a some of 
he stations worked will give their 2 m freq. Next year conditions may be 
etter.

 And the answer is:  124.
 
 The question, of course, is:  how many points more did we score this Field
 Day than last Field Day.
 
 Here's the breakdown:
 
 Mode..........3A..........GOTA...........VHF
 CW.............772........0...................0
 Digital.........192.........0...................0
 Phone.........1622.......355..............20
 
 Total operating points:  7,850
 Bonus points:              2,090
                                -----------
                                  9,940
                                -----------
 
 Last year was 9,816
 
 We did great on 3A CW, okay on 3A Digital, great on 3A phone
 We fell down on GOTA in general (and especially digital) and fell down on
 VHF.
 
 Good job folks!!!
 
 73s
