Low Power Contest, 2003.
The conditions were pretty tough at times, specially
on 80metres, which is pretty normal, with most of the
contacts being on 40mtres.The QRN on 80mtres was one
the reason that most stations moved up to 40 after a
couple of hours. The weather conditions seemed to be
perfect for portable operation.
Not having strict times on band changes and varying
information on contest web pages, is causing some confusion
on operating times, this has been duly noted.
This was the first time that nearly every entry had
submitted a computer log, and unfortunately not everyone
checked the logs before they were sent. This caused
some resubmission of logs, and with the help of Paul
EI5DI (Logging program) we were able to decipher all
the logs. Thanks to all concerned.
Congratulations to Tim, G4DBL who wins section A and
receives the 1930 Committee Cup, G6KQ ( op -Keith G3RPB)
wins section B and receives the Houston-Fergus Trophy.
The 3W Portable section D was won by G4ARI and receives
the Southgate Trophy. Congratulations to Ron G4DDX for
winning the 3W fixed section (Section C). Also congratulations
to G4ARI, G4DDX and G4DBL for having error free logs,
a tremendous achievement for a low power contest.
Many thanks to G3ICO , G3VQO, G0DVJ/P, PA0FAW,DL5FCO
for submitting Check logs, and thanks to those overseas
guys who were operating QRO and sent logs in ( There
is no QRO section) but gave 5 points away.

Soapbox.
G4ARI/P "Conditions were generally poor, with very strange
cndx on 40 in aft.A peak in G. sigs at 1423 for 25mins."
G4DBL "Nice contest, G5RV going surprisingly well."
G6KQ/P "80m is greatly underused, suggest compulsory
30min period after lunch."
SP6LV Tx consists of 8 tubes 30 years old RS old russian
R250M type.
G2CP/P "Generator start up problems, but then a perfect
day ,sunshine all day. 80m indifferent"
GM3JKS/P "80m poor, 40m opened up early. In GM lunch
break always clashes with good propagation to south."
G3YMC "Only a few stations on 80m, there was some good
skip in the afternoon if there had been any one on?"
G4DDL "Conditions better than expected, was pleased
to work some 80m."
MM3BRR 80m dead after first half hour. 40m better in afternoon
session.

high static level and thundery showers. Then glorius weather"
