News from the RSGB Contest Committee

A reminder that the first SSB RoPoCo takes place this coming Sunday 
evening, the 3rd April -- www.rsgbcc.org/hf/rules/2011/rropoco.shtml 
<http://www.rsgbcc.org/hf/rules/2011/rropoco.shtml>.  Even if you have 
misgivings, give it a try, and please remember that the power limit is 
now 100 watts.  We will be inviting entrants from the 80m Club 
Championship to try something different with this contest, so we are 
asking the Old Hands on this reflector to join in and show them how it's 
done!

The results of the first AFS Super League are now available at 
www.rsgbcc.org/vhf/results/11/AFSsuperleague.html 
<http://www.rsgbcc.org/vhf/results/11/AFSsuperleague.html> .  Some clubs 
made a point of getting their members to participate on HF, VHF and UHF 
-- Bristol Contest Group managed to become the first "AFS Contest Club 
of the Year" with an excellent score.  There was a welcome increase in 
entrants for the 2m and 70cm AFS contests, although the 80m 
participation remained pretty constant.  We look forward to more clubs 
crossing the 30MHz divide for the next AFS Super League.
