80m SSB Contest - 4th September 2024
Thanks for entering the first contest of the 2024/25 series of UKEICC 80m contests. Final results appear below. Three logs had to be 'repaired' to be incorporated in the final table; use of recommended logging software and the correct contest template would have avoided this. One station was sending a locator which differed from that entered in the log resulting in many undeserved busts for entrants until corrected. GM4JYB was overall winner and leading Low Power entrant. EI6JK headed the High Power section and M7WLT was highest scoring QRP entrant. Thanks to EI8CE and G4FJK for running the 2 bonus calls EI5G/G5GEI. GW0ETF - Adjudicator
