I happened to notice on Sunday morning after the NAQP RTTY contest that I was just shy of 2000 contacts for the month. Maybe that subconciously got me to make North Carolina QSO Party contacts?

After the NAQP I was about 30 contacts short of logging 2000 for the month. Prior to Feb 2010 the most contacts logged in a given month was 1595 in January 2010 and 1427 in March 2009. I was able to exceed 2000 contacts but not by a lot because February ended 7:00pm local time during the NC QSO Party. Though I logged 76 contacts, 30 of those fell into March giving me 2016 logged contacts in February 2010.

The biggest contributors to the numbers were thew CQ WPX RTTY contest with 860 Q’s, ARRL DX CW contest with 491 Q’s, the NA RTTY QSO Party with 358 Q’s and the XE RTTY contest with 186 Q’s.

I would anticipate that March’s totals will be less and possibly a lot less as we have a lot of weekend activities planned including what couple be some travel / mini vacation over at least one weekend.

Thanks to everyone for all the contacts!
