Contest Results I have decided to post my contest results. I hope this page prompts other "little guns" to participate in contesting. Just remember, there are only handful of Big Guns in any contest. The rest of the operators have modest stations. It is their skill brought on by practice that allows them to achieve the scores they do. For the best contesting software available, please visit Scott & Kimberly's web site at www.n3fjp.com . I operate most contests with a single radio and low power (100 watts). As you can see from my scores, I will never win any awards but I do improve my operating techniques. | Contest | Mode | Points | Contacts | Multipliers | | 2004 | | IARU | Mixed | 27,610 | 194 | 55 | | CQWW | CW | 12,408 | 72 | 66 |
