time ever, we had 10 transmitters going, one on each band/mode. It took a<br>while to work the bugs out, so not every station was QRV at the get-go. But<br>soon enough all the tubes burned brightly and the shacks warmed up on the cold<br>
April day.<br><br>We were hoping the increased flux would propel us past last year’s score, but<br>not only didn’t we come close to our 1 million point target, we barely<br>eclipsed last year’s score. Total CW and SSB QSOs were down compared to last<br>
year even though we had more butt-in-chair-hours.<br><br>For those of you who don’t know, Jeff and the team go to great lengths to set<br>up a complete CW multi-op station just for this event. The CW guys operate<br>Field Day style using a camper, generator, and temporary towers/antennas while<br>
the SSB guys operate from the main station and the big N8CC antennas.<br><br>Thanks for all the QSOs, and especially to the mobiles who braved the<br>not-so-snowy roads this year. We had a great time and we’ll be back!<br>
