QSOs
op: EI4GGB
Posted: 20th April 2021
| This one-off 'Home QTH' contest replaced the scheduled Easter Monday 2 metres Counties Contest, which was cancelled due to prevailing travel restrictions. 34 logs were received. Excluding uniques, these logs show QSOs by 61 EI stations and 7 GI stations. There was only one QSO with an overseas station (GW). Band conditions were fairly flat on the day, and just a few stations managed 200km+ QSOs. FM continues to be by far the most popular mode for local VHF contests, and accounted for almost 80% of QSOs in this event. The 'QSY Rule' for the FM channels works well, allowing everyone regular opportunities to call CQ. | |||||
