The CQ WW DX CW Contest featured incredible conditions, a large group of active MWA’ers, and scores soared! We’ve had more million point scores in the past but they have largely come from multi-op efforts. This contest undoubtedly had more million-point MWA’ers than in any contest in our history! Great efforts to everyone! The MWA score was immense! Our club score of 57.2 million points was up over 103% over last year! Congrats to everyone that was on the air!
Bill, ACØW, joined the VP5M effort and brought home 2.2 million points for MWA! The Scotts – NE9U and KA9FOX also added million of points at the K9CT Multi-Two. Great efforts guys!
