ARRL November Sweepstakes- 1999


The November Sweepstakes is one of my favorite contests and is one that I have participated in since 1977. My goal each year is to do better than the prior year (not always done), work 100 contacts (to recieve a pin) and above all - have fun!


Here is the result of my CW attempt in 1999:

KC5NT
North Texas Section
Precedence A (<150 watts)

QSO's 66
Sections 40
Claimed Score 5,280

The SSB session was better:

KC5NT
North Texas Section
Precedence A (<150 watts)

QSO's 249
Sections 75
Claimed Score 37,350

This was enough for a PIN! I was working for my first "clean sweep" of all 79 sections, but missed some easy ones: Quebec, British Columbia, South Carolina and West Texas!
