I'm planning on doing a writeup with breakdowns, ETC. Give me some
time....Im still
trying to recover. I had to work today (Memorial day) and have a full
work schedule for the remainder of the week. I'll try to have it out
before the end of the weekend. I think I might also be able to put
something interresting about the difference by having a rare PFX -VS- a
common one....basically, the only difference is that I had to go look for
and work most of the rare-prefix-big-guns instead of having them call me
(last year when I was one of the rare-pfx-big-guns)
Just by looking at the numbers I and most probably would not think
twice that KQ2M would have the higher final claimed score. He had 5 more
QSO's as well and quite a few more 40/80m QSOs, usually worth more
points. I am guessing that he had many more stateside callers due to his
rare prefix, resulting in more 0 point QSO's. I guess I made up missing
stateside prefixes with DX ones. I haven't looked at the continental
statistics but I know my stateside totals were way down from last year,
when I used to be KE2PF. Many thanks again to Bob N2RM for use of his
station. I now will quietly return myself to real-small-gun status from
home with 100w/low wires
Bob KQ2M....pse let me know ur Email address...
73, Dave N2NL..... still quite a bit wiped out from the weeknd
