For the first time we were also using the FT8 mode to make contacts. As other
stations using this mode reported that it was most useful Sunday afternoon
to contest end. W4TA picked up mult #100 (NP2Q) with 5 minutes left on the clock.
The next RTTY contest from the DMI station will be NAQP in July. Watch for details.
