A team of contesters believes it may have broken new ground
with a remote multi-op effort in February’s ARRL DX Contest CW weekend. A
half-dozen different hams operated contest station K4VV in northern Virginia
(using the call sign K3TN) from several different locations scattered from
Maryland to Florida. According to the
ARRL
Letter, members of the group each activated the contest station from their
homes in Virginia and North Carolina, while one started the competition from
his home in Maryland and finished the weekend at his condo in Florida. It was
pointed out that, due to a snowstorm, the K4VV station was inaccessible during
the contest weekend.
