It looks like a slow news day on the SECC, so here is an update for filler.

Working with Gordon, K4OD and Jeff, KU8E, we have a listing and web update for 
the Bonus prizes they pulled together.
I am amazed at the county totals these stations achieved.

Also, I had put Jeff, NY4N in Mixed when he submitted as CW, my error, and it 
has been corrected.
This Makes Jeff the winner for that Rover Single Op CW slot, sponsored by 
Larry, K4PIC.
Norm, W3DYA had been listed on initial posting, and Jeff spotted my err.  
Notes to/from both of these Gents reveal a great spirit of sportsmanship!

The scores on the above incident were so close, I had to really check them out.
Jeff had a good score as submitted, Norm was docked 3032 points in the final 
posting.
Since Norm had 1516 Qs (!) it looked like a multiplier was dropped 
(1516x2=3032)... and that turned out to be the case.
Norm had received a "DC" on a Q and it was logged as a mult.  We lump DC (or 
MDC) and MD into MD for GQP.
That 3032 points would have again changed the lead.  That is if Jeff didn't 
have a DC mult in the bag too.
These details were listed in the Score Errors page, and was where I looked 
first for the clues.
Next year we plan to separate DC and MD as mults, and scores will be cleaner.
This is the most common of the score corrections in the process, probably 20 
logs.

Matt, K4AQ spotted a couple of typos, and had an edit to offer, all were done.

A couple note were received about multiple entries by a very few stations.  
The current rule allows as many as 3 entries, but this too will be tweaked for 
next year, the rule is flawed and allows multiple counting of Qs.
No discredit to the station submitting, it is the current rule.

With the bonus prizes listed the posting is complete, but if anyone spots a 
bug, please contact me for fixes.

Tommy has plaques on the way,  Certificates will go next,  Bonus prizes are 
still ripening in the fields, but will go when they can.

That's it for a while, thanks again to all for the great support for the event.

73,
Mike, NE4S
