Did anyone besides me notice that KO1A (alias IZ3EYZ) has posted the high 
claimed Low Power score while operating via remote at a station located in of 
all places MO?

Odd ... but no one in MO I've talked to has a clue where this operation might 
have taken place nor do they recalled hearing it locally.

I find this all quite interesting, since IZ3EYZ's 2023 ARRL DX CW LP FS/KO1A 
entry was recently reclassified as a check log and VP2V/AA7V declared the 
rightful 2023 Low Power winner.  Seems odd that HQ hasn't made an announcement 
of this decision.

Would absolutely love to hear the details about how this fabulous low power 
score was achieved from America's heartland.  Where did the operation actually 
take place?  What were the antennas used?  How did the operator overcome the 
normal East Coast advantage, particularly on the lower bands.  Inquiring minds 
...

Regards,
John, W2GD/P44W
