Objectives

To maintain our 1st place position from last year's results.
To reach a score over 3.5M points. Yes!
To introduce some newly-licensed amateurs to contesting Yes!

Equipment

Run station: FT-1000MP, DVK, Quadra linear, Dunestar band-pass filter
Mult station: FT-1000MP, DVK, Tokyo Hi-Power linear, Dunestar band-pass filter
Antennas: For 160m: Dipole; For 80m: 2x phased verticals; For 40m: 4-square array; For 20m: 4 element monoband yagi; For 15 & 10m: Stepp-IR 3 element yagi*
Computers: Win-Test for logging, networked, with telnet cluster link.
* - Note that the shared antenna between 15m and 10m meant that it was not possible for the run and mult stations to use these bands simultaneously this year.

Results

After log-checking, our score was reduced by about 9.8% to give a final score of 4,139,710 points. We again came 2nd to G6PZ in the M/S category for England, who had a score of 5,962,920.
