Re: Bennington Co On The Map For VTQP

Very Cool Nathan! It sounds like you scored well by devoting time to it and coming up with a good strategy. It's always fun to better your previous year's score!
I started out planning to operate QRP CW only, but quickly bailed on that plan as competition for bandspace with the guys doing the FOC CW contest was pretty fierce. So I changed to 100 watts and made my challenge to beat my last year's score. It seems the last several years I always come in at 5th place- this year I hoped to achieve 4th. At the top is some real tough competition that I will never catch, such as my friend Ron, KK1L who is a very skilled contest monster and always quadruples my score. (Chittenden Co)
In the end, judging by reported scores on the 3830 score page, I should alas, be in 5th spot again! Lol.
It is strange how close our SSB and Digi numbers are. My results: CW- 314 QSOs - 62 multipliers Digi- 125 QSOs- 25 multipliers SSB- 79 QSOs- 35 multipliers
Always a fun contest. Don't forget the New England QSO Party in May- Bennington Co is rare on that as well.

I was able to figure out a way to remote into my laptop that was connected to my computer, then I could control my WSJT-X from anywhere in my house, when I was going about other thing, having family conversations, and still allow me to initiate and log each digital contact.

It really helped.
