Use a Paper Map to Keep Track of States Workesd

I know logging programs can keep track of this type of information but this method is quick and visual.

Many times there are short term contest or events that I wish to keep track of my contacts by states. Recently I have been working FT-8 trying to get a WAS total with conformations.

I keep track by cross hatching the state when I have worked but not confirmed the state. Once confirmed I shade the state.

Not an original idea by me. A ham got his daughter involved with the hobby by coloring in a similar map to cover states and DX QSOs. A little geography lesson too.
