432MHz Low Power 1997 Conditions were above average this year, but unfortunately the number of entries were well down in the 'Others' section the other two remaining constant. Stations on the east coast had enhancements into the near continent, with conditions being particularly good with GM4ZAP/P who had a convincing win this time. Don Stoker G1GEY lashed-up a 20 foot pole with a single 21ele to try out his new QTH and it is obviously quite good! Robert at GD4IOM couldnþt compete with the east coast guys this year and settles for second place a considerable margin behind, closely followed by Steve G4AEQ. Congratulations go to all winners and runners-up. It would be nice to see a few more entrants and it really is one of the easier events to be QRV for, a multimode rig with 10-25w and a single yagi is sufficient to give you a good placing and of course one of our nice certificates for the shack wall! Come on give it a try next year..
