For those like me who temper rhetoric with results, the following may be of
interest:

2009 ARRLDX CW - US/VE 3830 Claimed Scores 23Feb2009
US/VE M/M HP
Call     40m Q/M   
~~~~~~~~~~
NY4A   1700/114
W3LPL 1688/122
NR4M  1616/119
K1XM  1552/115
K3LR   1516/124  
K1RX  1389/116 

Finishing #1 in QSOs in this list is impressive, even more considering other
stations had more hardware and operators (e.g. W3LPL had 4 on 40m alone). 
Congrats to Guy and his K3!  Something was definitely working well at NY4A.

73,  Bill  W4ZV
