[Brian Miller]

The full results for the 2001 Oceania DX contest are now available for viewing on-line at the
Oceania DX Contest web site - go to http://www.nzart.org.nz/nzart/update/contests/Oceania.

CONGRATULATIONS to all of the 2001 winners and thank you to everyone who participated.

The Contest Committee was very pleased to see a 57% increase in the total number of logs received
for the 2001 contest, including a 60% increase in logs from Oceania. The increase indicates that our
strategy to rejuvenate the contest is working. We are looking for even greater participation in
2002 - especially from Oceania stations.

I would especially like to acknowledge the Committee who managed the promotion, log checking and
distribution of the results for the 2001 contest - the Committee members are VK5GN, VK3TZ, VK4UC,
VK2FHN, VK2AYD, VK1JDX, ZL3GA, ZL2BSJ and ZL1AZE.

The 2002 Oceania DX contest is to be held on the following dates and times

PHONE Contest: 0800 UTC Saturday 5 October to 0800 UTC Sunday 6 October
CW Contest: 0800 UTC Saturday 12 October to 0800 UTC Sunday 13 October

The 2002 rules are available from http://www.nzart.org.nz/nzart/update/contests/Oceania.

This will be the 66th Oceania DX Contest - lets make it the biggest and best yet.  Note that this
contest is a great opportunity to warm up for CQ WW! Please spread the word about the contest and
encourage others to "have a go".

We look forward to working you in the 2002 contest.
