80m CW Contest - 25th September 2024

Thank you for taking part in the first CW contest of the 2024/2025 80m Season. Conditions on 80m seemed to be quite good, with many loud signals here in the UK from stations all across Europe. The Final scores are shown below. Thank you to Pete EI7CC for operating EI5G, and to David G3PLE who was G5GEI for the evening. David brought us some sad news ... "Thanks to the team for letting me run the bonus station which I did very much in memory of M0ITR Bob now SK. He was a fan of UKEICC, a friend and CW operator par excellence." The next 80m contest is SSB next week, Wednesday 2nd October. 73 Tim G4FJK for the UKEICC Adjudicators
