Team RI, managed by John, W1XX, of the CTRI Contest Group, posted a final QSO tally of 38,342 QSOs. This puts RI in 11th place nationally, behind some huge large ham population states like PA and NJ. That said we still completed more QSOs than states with many many times the ham population (like NY, TX, or CA), so we have a lot to be proud of.
A total of 16 different stations were on the air, including your’s truly. Several of these were large multi-op stations, including KI1G, which completed 17,203 QSOs (more than five entire states).
RI will be back on the air during the November Phone SS Contest too.
