[NLRS] 222 & Up Contest, raw scores posted

[Melvyn Larson]

Hello NLRS land. Thanks to all the Super fixed stations that kept feeding the rovers. here is a
quick summaryof how our score came about at each stop showing cumlative score:St Charles EN33xw 10219Wilson        EN44da 14338Hanover IA EN43fi    220333Strawberry  EN42ep 28692West Union EN42bw 30198Hawkeye     EN32xx  35400My score numbers were figured by Roverlog, ARRL gets slighley higher. Near the end of the contest,when the fixed stations have all worked each other that they can hear, things slow down. If a roverpair show up in a new grid, it's fresh meat and a feeding frenzy starts. Fun to be the DX and workthe long haul contacts in a distance contest. We were either operating or driving, no time to workcross word puzzles. And nobody got away from Carol, the twofer scores matched. Thanks to everybody. 73, Mel KC0P/R & Carol N0HZO/R

Hello NLRS land. I notice this morning that the ARRL 222 & Up Distance Contest raw scores are posted on the Leagues website.   Scores for this distance based contest do not have National ranking as ranking is by "Area" where most of NLRS land is in Area 10.   Here are the Area 10 raw scores: 
Area 10, Single Operator, Fixed1. K0AWU 33,9652. W0GHZ 30,6783. K9MU 26,194
 Congratulations to Bill, Gary and Justin.  Your humble author was 4th with 24,762.  For rovers: 
Area 10, Unlimited Rover1. KC0P/R         35,445   1. N0HZO/R 35,445 3. WA9TT/R 15,308

Congratulations to Mel & Carol, and Larry.    Overall the club looks to finish in 3rd place out of a total of eight clubs with a score of 155,582 and with 10 logs.  Only the Mt Airy club had more logs with 14. With good weather predicted for this week its a good time for antenna work ahead of the September VHF contest, Sept 10 and 11.   Make sure to post your plans to the W0UC Activity Page at http://tinyurl.com/SeptVHF2022 where there are already about 30 fixed stations listed.  W0ZQ/R is planning on being out and about, how about some other rovers?  If you have a rig but no antenna, ask as the club is a vast resource.  How about loaning out some of that equipment that is collecting dust?   Towards that end I have a FT100D, with 6, 2, and 432 that someone can borrow.   73, JonW0ZQ______________________________________________________________
