BLASTs From the Past: Cinco de Contest

The first radiosport contest weekend in May brings us the CINCO de Contest: The ARI DX

Contest + USA State QSO Parties.  I have worked a variety of different approaches to running
this weekend, many of which resulted in 1st-place plaques.  This is what has been done so far.

Many of the successes in the above events can be summed up simply as:
