The Scores - Are In! Nicely Done GCARC!
By Jim Wright, N2GXJ
Can you remember January, and snowstorms? Maybe not the snowstorms so much, but how about the ARRL’s January VHF and up contest? As you may recall from the February 2020 CrossTalk, your Club, some of your fellow Club members banded together as a team to enter a limited multi-operator club score for the Gloucester Co ARC during the ARRL’s January VHF and up contest. Some members operated together as a multi-op station from the Clubhouse, while others contributed their individual scores from their home stations in our local area for a combined team score. How good did we do compared with other clubs in this category? At the time, we did not know. The key was that we all had fun. But there were suspicions that we might have done quite well.
Now we know just how well. The scores, are published! Have you seen them in the new issue of QST? If not, take a look. Look for the limited multi-operator results. They’re also available online (https://contests.arrl.org/scores.php). Top 5 in the nation??!!! Yes, you are reading that right! It really was an amazing team effort! Thank you again for the fun times in this contest!
