[PaQSO] PA QSO Party 2014 Rarity Factor info

Hi everyone,

I just finished the draft of the info gleaned from the 2014 results. I
haven't posted it to my website yet, but figured some of you would have fun
analyzing the Excel spreadsheet.

As usual, please let me know if you see any errors. My goal was zero
errors. I hope I achieved it.

You can download the spreadsheet here:
http://www.kd8mq.net/pqp/files/PQP_2014/totals-2014.xlsx

In way of an explanation, I do a summary sheet each year based on info
posted in the final PA QSO Party results. My sheet lists the number of QSOs
reported from each county during the contest.

The Rarity factor that you'll see in the sheet corresponds to how rare the
county was in that years contest. The lower the number, the rarer the
county.

This is just something I do to assist the Mobile, Portable, and Rover
operators in making their plans for the next party.

This is not put together by the Nittany club, so please don't gripe at Mike
if you find an error. You're more than welcome to let me know if you catch
something I missed.

I hope you have fun with the spreadsheet. The 2014 numbers will be posted
to kd8mq.net/pqp probably between now & Dayton.

73,

John, KD8MQ
