UKEICC 80m Contests (2022-23 series); 26th October 2022 at 2000z - CW

Thanks for entering the October 80m CW contest. Results appear below. Conditions were generally good with low noise levels; 3 stations logged W1KM in FN41NP. Overall winner was GM2V (GM3WOJ) with SM5CSS just behind as the leading Low Power entrant. G3P (G3WPH) heads up a competitive group of QRPers. A quick shout-out for 13 year old EI8KW who is part of a growing band of competent CW ops/contesters from EI. Ryan is one of the youngest members of CWops and it's good to see him in our contests. Apologies for the delay with the log processing. This was caused by a problem with the robot which prevented logs being uploaded until Thursday when Pete D4/G4CLA was able to identify and sort the problem. Numbers of submitted logs are probably reduced as a consequence but all emailed logs have been accounted for. Thanks to Pete for taking time out from CQWW preparations to get us back in business; and thanks also to all entrants for being patient! 73, Adjudicator: GW0ETF (aided by EI5DI, G4FJK, GM3WOJ) **Bonus calls were EI5G (EI7CC) and GW5GEI (GW0ETF)**
