The 2008 New Year's IRLP QSO Party

Ian, G3ZHI has sent us this review, by Dave K9DC, of the New Year Around the World QSO Party, held on the Internet Radio Linking Project (IRLP) Reflector 9200

Here are the numbers from the New Years party yesterday on Reflector 9200. Total nodes participating: 253  (see note below) Maximum simultaneous nodes: 104 Total transmissions: 4,847 Peak traffic (5 min): 5.67 Mbps Note: Total nodes participating is the count of nodes that got in to the reflector and made at least one transmission. Given the density of traffic at times, it is entirely possible some stations connected and disconnected without making an entry in the reflector log. Top ten talkers transmissions... stn4149 Count 100 stn8535 Count 118 stn5370 Count 120 stn4617 Count 127 stn4730 Count 144 stn6510 Count 156 stn8380 Count 183 stn5980 Count 185 stn3425 Count 242 stn6500 Count 414 So now.... who had the most fun?
