[UK-CONTEST] 80m CC Results

[Dave Lawley]

The results for the January 80m CC Datamodes and SSB contests have been 
posted to www.rsgbhfcc.org

The SSB results were delayed due to issues concerning some scores which 
appeared inconsisent with the power level, location or station 
capabilities declared in the Cabrillo header.

Entrants are reminded that the highest power level permitted in the 80m 
CC events is 100 watts, but also that some licence classes are 
restricted to lower power levels which must, of course, be observed.

These contests have to be largely self-policing, and club officials are 
asked to ensure that some of their more enthusiastic members are not 
tempted to 'turn the wick up' if conditions seem difficult.

Entrants are also reminded that the rules require them to be RSGB 
members. The Contests Committee has noted that some regulars do not 
appear to be RSGB members, and checks will be made as the year proceeds.

On a positive note, the new Robot used for the 80m CC contests starting 
in February has been well received and has brought benefits for the 
checking process.

Thank you for your cooperation.
