Well this was a very leisurely contest for me. First of all I did not start until Saturday morning. I probably should have taken advantage of 40 meters on Friday night. Points there are double for everyone except continental US which is still one point. I probably could have topped 200 K if I got on 40 Friday.
This was all about maximizing my score by working just multipliers. Getting the most for all the contacts I made. Most work was done Saturday. Sunday I stopped to watch the Indy 500 quite an exciting race this year.
So this is it for the major DX contests for the year. Rest of the summer is VHF and 10-10 QSO parties.
I guess time for a contest break and get set for next season.
