335 QSO's    79 Sections worked    52930 Score

Yep, we worked all 79 Sections this year! It was close though... The only Section that we hadn't worked towards the end of the Contest was Quebec, and when we finally heard a Quebec station it appeared that every Ham in the world still needed it too. Finally after what seemed like an eternity, through many, many pile-ups and constant QRM, Kirk was able to work our friend to the North. Yippee! It was quite a feeling of accomplishment and exhilaration once all 79 sections were complete! Kirk was jumping with joy - I'm not kidding! (I guess I was too.. hi hi)

Watch for a complete blow-by-blow analysis of our Sweeps participation in the January edition of Sparks!
