RSGB Jubilee Contest - June 2002. Republished from RadCom, June
2002. Copyright RSGB. www.rsgb.org THAT SUPPORT FOR this event
from the rarer areas of the Commonwealth was somewhat
lacking, despite a concentrated publicity campaign,
is incontrovertible. That the event coincided with probably
the worst spell of propagation conditions for years
is undeniable. That participation was eroded by the
World Cup football matches held over the same weekend
is highly likely. Yet, despite all this, support far
exceeded expectations. More than 550 logs were received.
Of these, 96 were from the UK and 52 from the remainder
of the Commonwealth. Inall, 51 countries and 24 Commonwealth
Call Areas, in every continent of the world including
Antarctica, are represented in the list of entrants
and many others appear regularly in the logs. It was
a great pleasure to receive entries from three holders
of Foundation Licences who were prepared to have a go
and mix it with the crowd. It was an equal disappointment
to discover during checking that there were Intermediate
class licensees on and active during the contest but
who did not submit entries. making his SDJ logging software
freely available to all. Comments accompanying logs
showed how much it was appreciated. Thanks also to Ray
Goff, G4FON, for his excellent LogMangler formatconversion
software which proved invaluable during checking. Nearly
80% of the logs were received by e-mail, and thanks
are due to Richard Everitt, G4ZFE, for his assistance
in processing and distributing the raw files.

| Winners. THE WINNER OF the Jubilee Trophy is Don
Beattie, G3BJ, who competed from home using his FT-1000MP
MkV and VL-1000 solid-state linear into a 10-element
Yagi at 75ft, 87ft vertical and dipoles. Don operated
mixed modes to amass the seventhbest overall score,
‘pipping’ the SSB-only entry from GS2MP,
operated by Chris Tran, GM3WOJ, by the narrowest of
margins.

Soapbox. 5B4AGX: Enjoyed the contest despite condx
and lack of multipliers.
Just part of the antenna farm of John, VE3EJ,
in Ontario, who operated as XM3EJ to take first place
in the Commonwealth Single-Operator Assisted Mixed Mode
section with 1676 QSOs. bug! P3F: A thoroughly enjoyable event despite an S9+ noise level on Sunday from an arcing 11kV insulator only 200m from the shack. P43JB: Poor conditions, nice contest. PA3BFH: Difficult to get G stations on higher bands. SM7BJW: Had much fun working this contest but had hoped to hear more stations outside UK. VE7JKZ: It’s a pity the propagation was so poor. I don’t expect to be around for the next one! VK2AYD: The cockatoos ate the feed wire on my beam so had to put up temp dipoles! We also had our annual Queen’s Birthday Field Day on the Sunday so lost lots of operating time. VK2EL: Worst band conditions for years in this part of the world. Not the fault of the organisers! VK5GN/M: Sorry not able to get on from home. I was visiting the Coonawarra Wine Region to stock up my cellar! VK8AV: Enjoyed the Contest! I was surprised at the number of non- Commonwealth stations participating! ZB2/G3SQX: Hard to work EU stations (wrong side of Rock). Not too many other Commonwealth stations, unfortunately. |
