Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner (or Turkey)

At the club Christmas dinner last night the results for the Worked All Counties competition were announced.

Thanks to everyone who entered, to Den for organising, to Tony for being an Adjudicator and to James for creating the on-line results table.

The aim was to encourage on-air activity and the Awards strategy was no-one wins >1 award.

10w – Period 1 (James, M1DST)
10w – Period 2 (Martin, G0DHL) – “you have to be in it to win it!” – He won P2 with just 1 QSO !
10w – Overall (Chris, G4AJA)

50w (Jonathan, M0ZGB) – NO other entries except Jonathan !

100w was most competitive section. Here we allocated Awards based on winner’s highest score. It resulted in Awards in all sections.
100w – Period 1 (Paul, M0PMV)
100w – Period 2 (Tony, G4LDL)
100w – Period 3 (Andy, G0UWS)
100w – Overall (Phil, M0PBZ)
Unfortunately, James’ 37 – a potential winning score had to be ignored as he had entered in 10W previously. “Your first Progress Form determines your chosen Power category for all periods”

400w – Overall (Steve, M0SPN)
Paul’s score (26 from P2) had to be ignored as he had entered in 100W previously. “Your first Progress Form determines your chosen Power category for all periods”

Many thanks to everyone who entered. Hopefully these results will encourage those who thought themselves uncompetitive to enter next year.

Key advice – as shown is 1) to enter! and 2) to choose your category carefully !

So, folks…. What would you like next year ?

…Italian Provinces, UK Postcodes, US States, Maidenhead Squares, Irish districts, Scottish Pubs …?)
Still use Power categories? OR …should we have Mode categories instead? (SSB, CW, PSK, RTTY,SSTV…)
