My brain is really churning on ss for some reason this afternoon...
I wonder what are the best 5 stations in the club for a stateside contest. Not
best ops... Dont want to get into ego's..
I dont know all the stations...
w4an , n4uk , etc ??? not mine <g>.
Several ideas here..
We had 25 entries . We could double our entries and still stay in the medium
category... Double our score still wouldn't have won.
Could we get a committment to have our five best stations on full time for
phone and cw ??.. more ??
How about a committment from cw ops to have at least 50% of there cw score on
ssb and the same for ssb ops on cw..
How about a club plaque for best combinatioin score !!..
OK Back to work..
Chime in please ..
