Tonno, ES5TV, påminner om ES OPEN som går av stapeln
nu på lördag. En lite annorlunda test där man så att
säga gör omstart varje timma. Detta innebär att man
kan köra en och samma station upp till 8:a gånger.

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 at 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,
