Congratulations to the W3LPL and WE3C teams as well as all multi operator teams for great scores! We are fortunate to have good competition in the Multi Multi category here in the USA. The WE3C team continues to improve - getting closer to the top! The weather was not a factor this year. However, changing solar conditions were in play and this contest tested the operators and the hardware at K3LR. When the K index stayed between 3 and 4 most of the weekend we knew we were in for a ride! This is one reason we run in these major DX operating events - you never know what will happen! The ARRL DX Phone contest activity was great this weekend and there was lots of DX for all 48 hours. Sharing our awesome friendship via wireless radio with others around the world is what makes this the most amazing hobby in the world. My sincere thanks to the talented K3LR contestmen - very good friends - that traveled from all over to be a part of this special weekend at K3LR. Great operators are the secret to doing well in a radio contest and these guys are some of the very best! No K3LR effort happens without the dedicated talented hard work by Dave, W9PA who puts the entire computer network together for each contest and helps with many of the K3LR station projects. Also thanks to Greg, W8WWV for his help creating new gadgets. Tim, W3YQ did many key repairs to help keep everything working and setting up before the contest starts. Thanks Tim! Very special thanks to Bob, N6TV who has created custom radio setups, scripts and WinTest help for us all season long. Many many thanks TV Bob! Chef Sal WM2H and Chef Olivia kept the K3LR team well fed. Two chefs are better than one! Simply awesome food!
