Club Calls Contest 2009
This contest remains a popular event in the RSGB contest calendar with
a marked increase in the number of received logs (13 more than in
2008). There were over 40 active club stations, though some did not
submit a log. Many clubs were clearly giving newcomers the opportunity
to gain experience in contesting, which was great to hear. The soapbox
comments showed that most stations (in particular the multi-op club
entries) had a good time, despite the curry arriving late for one of
the Jersey club stations.
Despite a well publicised plea for consistency in log formats and
especially the logged club name, very few managed to achieve this! Logs
were also received in a variety of formats and several were received by
post. This made adjudication a challenge.
From the received logs it was obvious that some stations (particularly
Club stations) were not consistent with their sent exchanges and
leniency has been applied to the receiving station in these instances.
In addition, one particular club clearly had 3 members giving a
different variation on the club name so all logged versions were
permitted.
Considerable flexibility was also given with regard to variations in
the recording of the club name. However, a “Society” logged as a “Club”
was penalised as were careless spelling errors (“Boton” for “Bolton”
and “Cabridge” for “Cambridge”). A “Club” recorded as a “Member” (or
Vice Versa) also resulted in the loss of points. However, almost any
spelling of “Refuelling” was allowed!
The overall winner and leading club station was Verulum ARC who win the
Ariel Trophy. Peter Hobbs, G3LET was the leading member station.
The Hadley Wood Contest Group reclaim the David Hill G4IQM Memorial
Trophy that they won in 2007. It was a good effort with 3 of their stations
operating from alternative locations in order to comply with the 30-mile radius
rule. There was also good membership
participation from other clubs with 9 from Horsham and 8 from Shirehampton. Other clubs would have scored better but did not muster
the 5 stations needed to post a good “team” score.
It was good to see so many Club station entries and this remains the
backbone of this event. Let’s hope its popularity continues to increase.

Long skip in the last hour, or maybe clubs had closed
early. Problems with a music jammer and someone who
jumped in 1.5kHz off without listening and persisted for half an
hour. Otherwise good, quiet conditions for once.

New tuned-loop receiving antenna took out enough of the noise to enable

great fun! A very civilised contest, where, instead of an exchange of
59 14 QSL, it is: hello XXXXX, nice signals here, thanks for your
report. I am a member of the XXXXX amateur radio club. It is nice to
hear so many of you from YYYYY club on tonight. See you next time! QRZ

Sala Radio Club in Sweden SK5CR. Sadly worth no points.
GX3VER
Station located at Phasel's Wood Scout Camp, Hemel
Hempsted. Main station = FT1000 with dipole at 15m, surrounded
by trees. Search RX = FT897 with long wire at about 8m, also
in the trees. Must find a better location for next year - I think the
trees take all the signal - nothing seemed very loud. Excellent fun and
very interesting to compare performance with the
other CLUB station as
we know each other's capabilities. Many thanks to all the organisers
and adjudicators.
GX4STV
Operated from G7TWC's QTH in N London
GX5XV
We had planned to go to G3LLK's QTH but the strong winds stopped that.
S9+10 noise level at home so no chance of CQing. I hope we have better
luck next year.
I had to use my 40m vertical to hear stations and transmit on the 132
ft bent wire.
GX8VER
TXVR = IC756P2 95m doublet at 8m AGL. Search RX = IC7000 on dipole at
7m AGL 90deg to above. Enjoyable multi-operator and two club stations
this year. We hope we did not cause too much confusion! We must find a
better way to log this contest. Thanks to the organisers.
M0AWX
IC735 into inverted-L at 75ft.
M0CHK
Noticable lack of activity. The band was quite very unusual. Still a
good contest.
M0CZR
Kenwood TS570, Long Wire. Good exchange
M0DJW
Operated from Ware Park Farm, Herts
M0KEL
First time that I have entered this contest. It was
nice to work a few familiar callsigns.
M0LUV
Excellent fun
M0RHS
TS2000, dipole
M0SIY
Thanks to other members of the club for helping ( logging aerials etc )
icom ic 7400 plus dipoles one east/west one north/south
M0XXT
Don't what ever you do, ask for a repeat of the last letter only!
M1EBV
Aerial fell down before and during so a bit of a washout
M5ARC/P
FT1000 MK5 Field, Vee Dipole. Well down on last year, new site, local
noise, QRM & lower antenna due to wind all conspired against us!
MX0AAA
very friendly contest
MX0HWC
Hard to understand why some CLUB stations did not use special prefix
