<DIV>There were times when I was excited and times when I was bored. I went from 0 SSB last year to almost 30% SSB this year. That has to be worth something. Almost 50% of the Q's were on 80 compared to almost nothing last year. That made the County count go up. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Summary: 35 MI Counties; 35 States and Provinces including 2 WY, 2 MT, 3 DE.</DIV>
<DIV>Most worked states: TN, PA, VA. </DIV>
<DIV>Most fun: 35 Q's in the last 40 Minutes of the contest--an actual run. Everyone seemed to be glad to see me.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks to everyone on the MQP committee for all of the work promoting, checking logs, and doing everything to make a real first class QSO Party. There are a lot of stations from around the country and in MI now that work the contest and run up very good QSO numbers. That is a tribute to the hard work of the committee. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks to everyone for the Q's. It was fun. Paul K8AAX</DIV>
