Dear friends and contesters,
ES OPEN HF Championship will take place this Saturday, April 16th, from 0500 to
0859
UTC on 40m and 80m! I hope you will have chance to participate in this nice
small
contest. There will be many ES stations active and contest is held both in SSB
and CW.
International winners get special trophies from ERAU plus all country winners
will be
awarded. There is also a special LP trophy.
We are trying to be the fastest log checkers in the world and announce the
results
about 1 month after the log dealine!! We hope this makes it much more
interesting for
you. Every participant also gets personal UBN files via e-mail.
NB! This year log deadline is May 20th, not June 1st anymore!
Please check the results and rules from www.erau.ee:
http://www.erau.ee/modules.php?op=modload&name=Info&file=index&req=viewarticle&artid=68
Rules are very easy: the contest consists of 4 equal one hour periods where you
can
work a station once on both bands. Thus 8 times maximum in total during the
contest.
Foreign stations can work ES stations only and multipliers are ES region
prefixes (0 to
9) on both bands and modes. So 20 for CW/SSB and 40 for Mixed class.
CW QSOs give 2 points and SSB 1 point. Report is RST + QSO number.
Text format logs should be sent to esopen@erau.ee
You can use WPX configuration of different logging programs as ES prefixes are
all
multipliers. Just have to clean dupe sheet after every hour or start new log.
TR log is
easy to use, we have a sample CFG file on ERAU web page. Let me know if you
have some
very clever solutions for other logging programs - I would very much appreciate!
CU on Sat morning,
73
