Final Scores

Below are the final scores, by category, for the 2014 Colorado QSO Party. The individual In-State High Score was logged by Randall Martin, K0EU with 197800 points (Second year in a row for Randy). The individual Out of State High Score was logged by Bill Waters, W7GKF, with 13960 points (Third year in a row for Bill). 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.

  • 140 Operators – in & out of state (Submitted Logs)
  • 1909 Stations – in (131) & out (1778) of state (Unique Call Signs in Logs)
  • 177 logs received
  • 100 out of state
  • 77 in state

There were a tremendous amount of positive soapbox comments received from the COQP participants. They will be published in the December or January edition of the PPRAA’s Zero Beat newsletter.

The judging team recomputed all scores.

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
