I don't THINK anyone has ever worked all 50 states in ILQP.  Getting all
but one of them was a tremendous accomplishment!!  On CW, I worked only
one VE province (ON)....kinda disappointing.

Did anyone work Nevada?

For the 4th year in a row, I ended up with 49 states.  When KH6 
called me on 20m at 17:47z, I thought WAS would be in the bag.  I 
told everyone I worked that I needed NV and saw it spotted a bunch by 
those who worked me or were listening.   SD said that he saw it on 
the cluster and stopped by to work me.  KC0TJO didn't have any info 
on the contest but wanted to help.  I encouraged him to work others 
in the IQP, but I don't know if he did.

The VEs were everywhere and I ended up with NB NS QC ON MN SK AB BC 
all calling me at some point.  I worked some VE5's on 80 around 0000z.

DX...I could have run Europe for the first couple hours.  If I had 
any idea at 1730 that at 0100z I would only have 539 QSOs, I would 
have beamed Eu for the 1st two hours.  I worked KL7, VE, G, DL, KH6, 
I, SP, EA, SM and W9.

55 counties and I won't even get into the easy stuff I missed 
there.  Let's just say I missed some that were spotted every 30 
minutes...all day.  Thanks to NG9R, I added some counties I would 
have missed.  Brown was a great addition, thanks Danny!

Anyone work all 50 states?


Just curious...
