Award Certificate for June 2005 VHF Contest

My award certificate for the June VHF contest from last summer arrived in the mail today. Of course, the results were published a while ago so this was old news. Still, it is fun to see the printed award.

The June contest is a bit more competitive in the QRP (Single Operator Portable) category. (See my comments about the January contest.) The top ten scores in the category were:

K6MI 94,248; KA1LMR 76,920; N7IR 31,719; W6DWI 18,225; KØNR 16,415; N7OEP 14,472; W7KK 7,980; K9GY 6,357; W4RXR 6,210; KG4LEV 4,884

My score of 16,415 netted me 5th place overall, with a first place finish in the Colorado Section and the Rocky Mountain Division. I also set a new record for the Colorado section in the QRP category.

My soapbox comments on the ARRL web site include a few photos of the operation.
