Conditions were great, especially on the low bands, and we may see a few
more records fall.
The popularity of the Stew Perry Distance Challenge made things tough for
our contest on 160m. Many ops complained that some US stations refused to
send serial numbers for RAC contest participants even after our folks
obliged them with grid squares. We can coexist, can we not?
The address for contest entries has changed. Please send your entry by
31 January to: RAC Canada Winter Contest,
720 Belfast Road - Suite 217
Ottawa ON K1G 0Z5 CANADA.
Logs sent to the old address WILL be forwarded.
Full results will appear in the May issue of The Canadian Amateur, and copies
the the full results and write-up will be mailed to every entrant.
Thanks for participating.
