Moving sites at the last moment definitely made things difficult but I do
not think anyone is criticizing WRTC 2022 Italy. It is just there has been a
lot of silence about the event until K5ZD's interview. It was great to hear
Randy very elegantly described the challenges some stations had. 

Congratulations to the participants, they are all world-class operators!

There was disastrous flooding southeast of Bologna where many sites were
located just weeks before the event.  Infrastructure was disabled and the OC
couldn't even communicate with some sites to assess status. Accordingly, the
OC set about on a crash program to secure replacement sites north of Bologna
at the very last minute.  A few sites were unfortunately compromised
compared to most.  There's nothing to be gained at this point by
criticizing.  Everyone understands the goal of making sites as equitable as
possible and the OC made the most of an extremely challenging situation.
