Good reading, especially for those who have no operated a lot of phone in contests --

--------
I see reference to ARRL triple play award, and surprised to see that something like 269 have been awarded -- i was expecting a higher number.  I suspect N3II (retired ...) and superstation WX3B likely are close or have made it.  

My current triple play score is 101 (out of 150 possible) -- lacking ONLY (strangely) MO for mixed-mode WAS -- i have much of CW and digital filled in from casual contest operating; i may need SS or a NA sprint to add to my weak phone totals (12 states).  

I wonder how many Carroll County operators (at either of our 2 operations) will do a triple play at FD by spending some time on all 3 modes (and hopefully training other ops in the process) ?  Challenge yourself !
