No time to be my usual verbose self, I have to get to bed for a horrible
first day back to work tomorrow. (I know, I've seen the schedule!)
In brief, subject to log proofreading:
Total QSO's.................. 500
Unique Callsigns Worked...... 20
QSO Points, all Bands........ 2,000
Distance Points, all Bands... 90,262
FINAL SCORE.................. 92,262
Best Dx in Km
10 GHz....................... 281 (EN24ve to EN15kp on Saturday with
6 Sisseton operators)
24 GHz....................... 5 (EN34ak to EN34al on Sunday with
one rover operator on WBFM)
To *EVERYONE* who participated in any way, I must say, "Thank you, thank
you, thank you!".
I am extremely pleased at how our planning paid off. More from me later on.
P.S., if *I* managed 500 QSO's (not 499, as Dan said), then it looks
like most or all of the rovers will have done so also, since I missed
some QSO's that others were able to make. That means dupe sheets are
needed. (I never knew that, until Jon mentioned it.) If you are using
my spreadsheet for tabulating your log, the dupe sheet *CAN* be created
by it, but it is something that takes considerable care so that you
don't scramble the whole thing up. If anyone wants help generating a
dupe sheet from their Excel log sheet, let me know and I will be happy
to help. (Ouch, the price of success!)
