The turning in of a log,
regardless of your anticipated score, # of contacts, etc.,
is a final thank you to the guys and gals that put so much
time into making them successful.It’s really all about:
“Hey! I was here! Here’s my
log! Thanks to the folks I worked, and thanks for the
staffs’ effort!”No log is too

 Turn it in for
sure.I
have actually won the QRP division in two separate QSO
Parties with only 1 contact each.You just don't know how far
you can move up the food chain when condx are less than
optimal.

No
worries, we have a week to upload the logs after all.

I seem to have been doing the
math wrong in my head, thinking I only worked 6 hours.... 
My best score is based starting at 2200.

Again, many thanks!

Sorry, we had company for dinner
so I didn't get a chance to look until

 The issue is that you operated for
more than six hours--you started at 2000z and ended at
0411z. That's over eight hours. You need to pick the
best six-contiguous hours. You can either do the analysis
yourself, or let the checker decide for you. Just upload
multiple times selecting different start times: 2000z,
2200z, and 2300z. (Since you had no QSOs during the 2100z
hour, that wouldn't be a good starting time.) Then do
one final upload with the version that scores the
best.
 My
guess (without doing the math) is that 2200z will be best.
You only have one QSO during the 0400z hour, so that's
not likely to be worth more than the QSOs you will lose for
skipping the 2200z hour. And you only had five QSOs in the
2000z hour--starting at 2000z means you lose the 11 QSOs
during the 0300z hour. The "catch" might be the
multipliers, as I didn't look at
that.
