The Montrose Amateur Radio Club also had a good showing with 6 entries. Out of State leader was the Tennessee Contest Group with 5 entries. Congratulations to them and everyone for their fine effort.

Included in the listing is the placement in each category. At the end of the listing are the winners of the Special Categories. Congratulations to all the winners.

Below are some interesting numbers from the COQP.

There has been a tremendous amount of positive soapbox comments received from the COQP participants. They will be published in the January edition of the PPRAA's Zero Beat newsletter.

The judging team recomputed all scores. One of our main goals for next year is to get most logging software to support scoring and encourage increasing the number of electronically submitted logs. Dates for the 2009 COQP will be determined in January. Many more details to come. Check the website periodically for revised rules and more information.

Again, my thanks to everyone for their participation and support. Special thanks go to the PPRAA and especially it’s Board of Directors.

Douglas Nielsen, N7LEM
