Why Time Zones? by John N6ENU

In the interest of promoting a level playing field, we chose to divide each category by time zone. That is, for each category a certificate was awarded in the EST, CST, MST, and PST zones. While this was not announced prior to the contest, we felt this addition would offer an attempt to recognize activity by region, given operator density is sparser the further west one operates. The natural limitation on distance when operating meteor scatter isolates western operators from the concentration of eastern operators. The results again seem to corroborate this belief as the submitted logs thinned once you hit the Great Plains and became thinner the further west you traveled.

 We hope to see more logs in the future and with the addition of time zones, there is an opportunity for winners from every region.

 Hope to hear your pings out west.
