Comments:
Another fun contest roving along the lower Great Lakes with decent weather along
with VA3ELE and VE2UG.
No remarkable contacts or broken DX records but working a lot of medium haul
stuff repeatedly paid off ! This was by far my best finish for this contest
surpassing my previous best score by over 10,000 points.
Best DX
10 GHz - 626 km
24 GHz - 167 km
47 GHz - 99 km
122 GHz - 1 km
NOTE:
FWIW, for several days I pondered the idea of submitting under the 10 GHz only
category (with a checklog for the higher bands) since my 10 GHz score would have
put me at the top for my region however I decided just to stick with 10 GHz
& Up again.
The ARRL seriously needs to consider revamping the point system for this contest
as the expense and effort to get on the higher bands is significant yet the
points awarded is inequitable. OR, just have one category for all bands. There
is no real incentive to expand into the higher bands with regard to the contest.
