3rd 80m CC Datamodes Contest 24th April 2025

The third 80m Datamodes CC event attracted 142 entries. Whilst conditions were generally favourable inevitably they didn't suit all.

Once again stations are overdriving the audio stages, or forgetting to turn off the compressor. This only loses QSOs not gains them, and makes it difficult for others. Please do clean up your act and output, all will benefit.

Whilst warming a frequency before the contest is accepted as standard practice, unless it is a Le Mans start of course, be careful not to push licencing conditions by warming two frequencies at once if your station has that capability.

So to the results, Clubs first where we see Norfolk ARC in the Local section, with a virtually unassailable lead. The real fight for 2nd place between Bristol CG and Newbury & DARS who have pushed Echelford ARS from second last month to four th this month. In the General section Three As continue to open the gap with De Montfort University ARC holding second place with the Radio Officers Association quite a way off in third spot.

In the individual results wins were recorded for:-

G4BVY in the 100W-A Section

G4ENZ in the 10W-A Section

GW5P (GW0EGH) in the 100W-U Section

G4PIQ in the 10W-U section.

Well done to all stations.

Until we RY again on the 21st May, good DX, and take the time to tweak those setups.
