Poor weather and worst band conditions were the main features of this contest. The sporadic E propagation that was evident before this contest started diminished rapidly once the contest commenced. All of the DX was worked in the first hour of the contest.
Congratulations to the One Man and His Dog Contest Group (G8NWM/P) for winning the 10W multi-operator section.
Congratulations to Dan Esdale and his team operating as G0RMX/P for winning
the 3W multi-operator section. The West Kent Amateur Radio Society (G1WKS/P)
were runners-up
Congratulations to Dave Hewitt (GW8ZRE/P) for winning the 10W Single Operation
section. Mark Palmer (G0OIW/P) was the runner-up.
All winners and runners-up will receive certificates. All Backpackers certificates will be dispatched once all (144MHz and 50MHz) Backpackers contests have been adjudicated
