Ham Radio Amateur Radio Contesting Page 53

V47NT posted his result finally. I’m surprised with Andy’s poor score (IMHO).

Aha, ‘Pepsi Generation” did not withstand the competition. One must not declare all the time, that he is young, and therefore he knows what to do better, and it’s time for older people to have a rest.

First of all, I’d like to emphasize P33W result. The MS team consisted of RA2FA, UA2FZ, RW4WR, RV1AW, & RA3AUU was able to make over 9000 QSO with excellent mults number, and claimed new World and Asia records !!!!

Well known contester from Lithuania Rimas LY4CW is died in accident

Well then, the time of CQ WW CW Contest 2010 is approached, it is to be happen the coming weekend. Sure, as usual, great attention will be attracted to SOAB HP category. K3EST made the last year observers’ visits into slapstick comedy.

in the wake of Hurricane "TOMAS" several Caribbean Islands from Martinique to Tobago were seriously affected by heavy impact of storm and rain.

Currently, it is more and more obvious that the CQ WW Contest Committee wishes to disestablish SOAB Unassisted Category. In spite of numerous contesters requests for leaving the SOAB SO1R Category that was cancelled without regard to contest society opinion, nothing is changed.

New QSO/hour record was set up in the last CQ WW SSB Contest 2010 by Vladislav Sitnikov, UU5MAF, operated at RC0F.

I didn’t stand it, and I decided to write a note to this subject.

I was surprised Americans decided to consider SOSB scores for WRTC 2014 selection.

Sea Water HF VHF Antenna Designers claiming 2-400 Mhz Difficult to believe :-)

Unfortunately, Roli was removed from contesting completely. He was removed by double DQ in CQ WW DX SSB and CW 2009.

As I noted in my previous interviews and articles, WRTC selection criteria are a bit far from perfection. In my opinion, corrections I’m going to tell you about might make the criteria more perfect.

I’m doing contesting long enough. My first ham radio Teacher and contesting Mentor is Gennady Shkumat, UA9AB (ex UA9AAP).

In other words, if one John will participate in SO category, but without two radios, he violates nothing, and his log will be accepted for refereeing, and he even might be able to get one of the high places between other Johns, and between more advanced and ambitious Joses, who use TWO sets of equipment instead of one, but nevertheless, participating in the same category as Johns.
