US Grids

 In the USA there is an award for working all 488 Grid squares in the lower 48 States on VHF and above. Not much hope of doing this from Australia, however curious to see how I am going with working US grid squares on HF. So designed a Log4OM award to display this. After creating the award scanned my log and got a list of grids worked per band


Looking at Statistics, 10m has the most grid squares, followed by 17m and 40m. The grand total is 300, so about 3/4 of all grid squares worked.


Log4OM mapping shows what grid squares worked. Not too many holes in the East Coast, however central and parts of the West Coast have large areas of missing grids. Doubt I will ever work all grids in the USA from Australia, even located in the USA would be tough going.
