Cool! W3YA (W3GA) finished somwhere in th etop third of 2A.

Which is the most competitive entry class!

Not bad
considering the number of new operators we had. And a pleasant time was
had by all!

Yup!

Interesting stats in the write up:

- Total QSOs reported: 1,326,122
- Increase of almost 200,000 compared to 2003.
- Almost 50,000 more CW QSOs
- About 22% more 'phone QSOs
- 20,940 digital QSOs = about 67% more than 2003 and a new record.

7-1/2 months to the next one!

The W8CAL Marshall County, WV ARES bunch nailed 16th or 17th place, way
up from near the bottom of the 5A pack. It would have helped if the
four SSB stations could have averaged more than about 100 QSOs each. I
dunno if N8NN and I are going to do it again next year. We may go back
to having it out here as a 1B entry.
