Totals: 737 QSOs; 174 multipliers comprised of 118 Texas Counties; 48 States

SM, SP.
The results were weird. 40m was much better on CW than on SSB. 40m SSB was
disappointing. The signals were good, but activity seemed down from past
years.
20m sounded disturbed.
I was pleased to see 15m open this year. The few Europeans I worked on 15m were
much louder than the signals from North America.
W5CT/m, operated by Madison, W5MJ and Robert, K5PI, with driver, Mike, W9MC,
did
a phenomenal job this year! I was able to work them in 31 counties.
N5NA/m, K5PS/m, WW5X/m and K5CM/m were also major contributors to the success of
the event this year. Thanks to all of the mobiles for their efforts. State
QSO
parties without mobiles would not be nearly as much fun.
Thank you to everyone for all of the QSOs, especially those of you who activated
rare states, Alaska, Hawaii and DX entities.
73, Frank WA2VYA
