The points totals for Field Day are as follows:

QSO points – 7674

Bonus points – 1050

Total points – 8724

We also had 24 contacts made on the GOTA station by Aaron, KG5YUP and Jonathan, KI5JKG. Each contact was worth 5 points for a total of 120. Very good that we had some activity on GOTA.

A very good showing! The sideband effort was by far the most improved and we have the makings of some good contest ops. I hope we can get some contest-level CW ops trained to help in that effort. Next year will be even better!
