2nd 50MHz Backpackers Contest of 2007



Only six contestants entered the 2nd 50MHz Backpackers Contest of 2007. Band conditions were excellent once again with 1400+ km DX available to all entrants except for G1ORC/P who had an antenna fault. At least they managed to make one QSO!

The winners of the 3W multi-operator section were the Oldham Radio Club G1ORC/P.

The 10W Single Operator section was won by Ashley Edwards M0BAO/P with Damian Coombes M1VPN/P in second place.

The Burton ARC G3NFC/P won the 3W Single Operator section. Steve Hartley F/G0FUW/P was the runner-up.

Thank you to OK1KZ for his check log.
