Hmmm...

There for a while it seemed we were going gangbusters in the contests.  Last year was horribly slow for no good reason, winter storms excepted.  I think I (N1TX) was highly motivated in 2012 with scoring high in the regional WRTC selection.  I can say 2014 numbers do not include the 4000 or so contacts we made as W1AW/KL7 in late June.  If we are able to complete Sweepstakes in both modes as well as CQWW, it will have been a great year in sheer volume.  LoTW confirmations allow us to claim DXCC 150 on 20m alone since the club's inception, but this year DXCC counts seem low to date.
