[UK-CONTEST] SSB Field Day ..efficiency

[Clive Whelan]

Yeah but, no but.....

The efficiency of DARC is legendary, just a shame that we
have to trade off flawed ethos to achieve this, viz default
use of cluster spotting ( cf also WAEDC). Otoh, perhaps
those who demur are just OFs?

Hi Guys

A week or so ago, the results of the September's SSB FD were
published by
the DARC.  Today GW0AAA/P received a nice certificate.  All
done and dusted
in a few months.

I would urge any entrants for the RSGB field days to also
submit a log to
the DARC.  With Cabrillo and e-mail, clearly no great effort
is required.
Just email the file to fieldday at darc.dxhf.de .  It adds to
the fun, and it's
easy.

At present the scoring criteria for the CW events differ
between the RSGB
and the DARC.  So if one is aiming for a top slot in Europe
it's clearly
best to base operating strategy on the DARC multiplier
system. I suspect
though that, like us, most UK stations will stick to the old
fashioned RSGB
system for the present. Then simply send in a log to DARC
for fun.
