Conditions during the contest were poor relative to the week prior to the contest, which saw good sporadic-E openings. Despite this most stations were able to take advantage of short sporadic-E openings, the timing and duration of which varied from one end of the country to another.
Several stations that normally operate from portable locations were not deterred by the Foot and Mouth restrictions and managed to make use of club stations or alternative fixed stations.
Congratulations to the Northern Lights for winning the Multi-operator section (and the Telford Trophy), Howard M0XXX for winning the Single operator fixed station section (and the Six Metre Cup), The Flight Refueling ARS for winning the Multi-operator six hour section, Tim G4DBL for winning the Single operator fixed six hour section and Simon RS177448 for winning the SWL section.
