I see the results of the contest are posted now. My log must've just made
it under the wire - I think I sent it in minutes before the deadline!

35 stations reported QSO's on 24 GHz. Best DX ranged from 2 km to 360 km! I
hope I can get that kind of DX on that band some day.

There were five stations reporting QSO's on 47 GHz. Best DX ranged from 1
km to 88 km. Again, I would really like to have that kind of DX but I
suspect I will just make a couple km on that band.

There were no QSO's reported on 75 GHz and one in the "300+ GHz" category.
That station reported 156 km. I am guessing that was by Laser. That's quite
a distance for a Laser QSO! Evidently the station he worked did not turn in
a log.

I hope to do better this year. I'm looking forward to it.

73, Zack W9SZ
