Many thanks for all members who took part in the Activity thrash last November.
I am going to make a change to the instructions in that I do not want a separate sheet for each band this next year, all can continue through each band you work.
People are reminded that you only count an RNARS country once, regardless the number of bands you work them on, plus it is only RNARS Countries not other Naval people who are working from their respective clubs/countries.
We hope that conditions on the HF bands will be a lot better as the sun spots start to appear about the sun, so look forward to seeing many of you in 2008.
COMMENTS
GM3NCS I found conditions fairly rough on the bands with quite a lot of QRM. Sorry I did not have the antennas for 20 through 10m due to gale damage.
HM9ANE It is always a joy for me to participate in this activity and meet once again "old" friends of the RNARS, particularly personally known. I met some RNARS members from Sweden, which is for me a very rare country. Saturday the conditions were good but on Sunday a little less with a lot of QRM. It would be nice to find a date where other contests are not evident. (Very difficult Jurgen).
PA0HRM Bit confusing those contest, one from LZ and another from INORC but worked a lot of Italian stations. (The compliment each other Hans as they are all worth 10 points per QSO).
SM3CIQ Thanks to all nice participants. I really enjoy this kind of contest, not too long or too demanding. Hope to see you all next year. (If you are on email Ulf, please ask sidwill@lineone.net for an RNARS call list, it is free).
G3OWO Total QSO's were down again. Oh Dear! Multipliers also hard to find. However, it was a very enjoyable weekend. Thanks to all who took part.
G4PRL I am not a contester, or indeed have never taken part in a contest, but I must say that I certainly enjoyed this one. For this reason I do hope that I have interpreted the rules correctly.
G3ZNR Enjoyed taking part in the Activity Contest, but operating QRP again, I found conditions very poor especially for the inter G QSO's on 7MHz and also competing with the LZ Contest. It was frustrating that two weeks before the contest, the CQWW SSB contest had 21 and 28 MHz open, we hope for better conditions next year.
G3KKJ Many thanks to the old timers and a hearty welcome to the newer members. Not as much activity this year and hard work finding space between the LZ contest.
MM0CJF This was my first CW contest ever, and with some encouragement from Whyte & MacKAY I settled down to a long 24 hours on the key, it was more of an endurance test than anything else. Conditions were appalling. After ten hours chasing to no avail except for GB4RN I decided to call it a day. Sunday to my joy I heard GM4SID 599 but made no contact, even chasing him to 40m and finally to 15m before I had no copy. Stayed until the end hoping to pick up some RNARS but heard nothing. It was a joy to listen and look forward to next year and hope to do much better.
I7OEB Bad conditions on 15/20m, also spent less time on 80m due to guests arriving.
VK2AYD Conditions were very bad down here with nothing 7MHz and below. Apart from VK1RAN did not hear another VK, ZL or W on the bands and 14MHz only opened up in the evening here. Hope better conditions next year.
G3YAJ Not very much time this year and conditions not that good.
HZ1PS Sorry I could not be on the bands longer, Saturday and Sundays are working days here in the Kingdom. Cannot get on 7MHz and 14 closed fairly early. QSL via IZ8CLM.
DF50PAMIR This is a new club station of MF and created in memoriam of the tragedy of training sail ship PAMIR 50 years ago. 80 brave men died mostly cadets between 16 and 18 years old, only 6 survived. PAMIR disabled in hurricane Carrie 21st September 1957 in QTH 35.57N 40.20W.
GM4SID I enjoyed the event this year. Called CQ most of the time. Best DX JA, VK2 and 9M6.
