Well, the Montana QSO party was a bust. I never heard one station participating in the contest all weekend. Due to the nature of how radio waves travel, this isn't necessarily unexpected, I was just hoping for better. On the other hand I did contact several other new states and one District. (There are less than 500 hams in DC, which in theory makes it three times as rare as North Dakota, the state with the lowest ham population. Under the Worked All States rules, though, DC counts as a Maryland contact. Hey, I don't make these rules up.)

When I say "new states," of course I mean "new this time around." I earned my Worked All States award back around 1979. The certificate is one of the things I wish I could find in the garage. I also worked all 50 states during one weekend in 1979, but I'll tell that story another time.
