Hi All,

Well I have just looked at the ARRL WEB page and looked under contests.

Field Day was held June 26, 2004.  Three members of the RENO QRP Group 
went to the San Fransisco bay in Bruce Thee's sailboat the S/V Christina.
Bruce Thee W7BWT, Craig Sande AE7I, and Ed Dybowski WD7Y operated in
 the bay as FD class EB 1C under Ed's Call WD7Y/MM.

In 2003, we operated with Bruce W7BTW , Ed WD7Y, and Lou Hlousek W7HV.
Our exchange was EB 1C as W7HV/MM.  We came in third place last year with
a score of 1430 with 143 QSO's in the CI Class.

This year 2004 we came in third place again:

#1   AA6DP   3374 score,  915 QSOs LAX  4 Ops
#2   N8LXR   2480 score,  667 QSOs EPA  1 Op
#3   WD7Y    1420 score,  142 QSOs EB   3 Ops
    The first and second place winners of this 
    class did not operate QRP...........

There were three other QRP entrees in 2004:

#11  K7CN     580 score    58 QSOs       1 Op
#12  VE3WMB   570 score    57 QSOs       1 Op
#37  N3AWS    100 score    20 QSOs       1 Op
    There were 57 listings in the 1C class, 
    I feel that we did very well.

Last year's (2003) scores were:

#1   AA6DP   2928 score   808 QSOs       5 Ops
#2   W3ET    1486 score   507 QSOs      24 Ops
#3   W7HV    1430 score   143 QSOs       3 Ops
    We had one more QSO over last year.

AA6DP is a very strong contester.
  He was #1 in 2004, 2003, and 2000
  In 2002 he placed #2.

I hope this is of interest to the menbers of the RENO QRP Group.
