50MHz Trophy Contest 2000

Many of the competitors experienced thunder and lightning at some time during this contest. In contrast, a handful of stations commented on the nice warm, dry weather!

Activity levels were high during the contest with heavy QRM being experienced by many stations.

Congratulations to the Blacksheep Contest & DX Group for winning the Multi-operator section (and the Telford Trophy), G0AEV for winning the Single operator fixed station section (and the Six Metre Cup) and to GM7AFE/P for winning the Single operator portable section. In the 6 hour section, MM5AJN emerged in first place. BRS32525 was the only SWL entrant and wins this section.
