2009 Waitakere Sprint - Results Published.

Mon, 21/09/2009 - 11:20 — VHFAdmin

This from David ZL1DK of Papakura Branch:

Logs received from 35 in the phone section up from 21 last year and 24 in the CW section up from 16 last year. A list of all known participants will be posted on the web page below later this week.

Congratulations to the winners and thank you to all who sent in logs and to all those who participated in giving out numbers. We need you all... and the more there are the more fun it is for all contesters.

The results show a very closely fought contest and those who called for the full 60 minutes got the top results. I think that the phone results reflect the quantity of operators around and many of us just need to make those extra contacts. The CW results were very very close indeed and I'm sure that there will be even more effort from those operators to grab another 1 or 2 contacts.

For those who participated but did not send in logs.... thanks for helping to make this a wonderfull contest for without you it would revert to being an endurance exercise.

Scoring has been kept to the very basic 1 point per qso, no matter what power or where you are and this is proving more that equal between VK and ZL. It is good that so many foundations calls are up and we all look forward to working you in this and other local contests.

Certificates will be posted this week and for those who would like a participants certificate you can print one from the web page shown above.

Again, thanks to all who participated.
