[LCC] NU1AW/5 IARU 2017 @ LCC stations - Summary

[w5wz at w5wz.com]

A month ago when NN1N approached me and K5ER with this opportunity, we 
realized that we needed to seize the moment, even with only a month to 
plan and prepare.  My unspoken goal was for us to achieve a QSO total in 
the neighborhood of 5,000 to 7,000 QSOs (band condition dependent, of 
course).  That goal was calculated-guesstimated from the efforts by the 
Mad River Radio Club and North Coast Contesters 11 years ago when they 
did NU1AW/8 from northern Ohio, finishing just shy of 9,000 QSOs.  From 
that better location for running Europe, there were 4 large true 
multi-multi stations with many more operators than we had.  So I dialed 
the goal back just a little from that.  Kudos, we did it!  We had 5,030 
raw QSOs before 0 point QSOs are excluded by the N1MM+ software.  No 
disappointment in our performance here; only some disappointment that 10 
and 15 did not open any better.

Three host stations with 14 operators
