Club Competition Update

The contest season has started off with a bang! The bands were in great shape and MWA’ers spent the weekend diddling! We witnessed some incredible single-op efforts and the return of the dominant K0IR multi-op! Congrats to everyone that got on the air!

Overall, MWA posted a score of 18.6 million points. This was an 8.41% increase over last year.

The Team Competition got off to a big state. Team 4, anchored by several single-op efforts, and the great score from the K0IR multi, grabbed the top team spot. Their 5.5 million points lead all the other teams. Team 5, leading with 12 active operators, took second place with 4.9 million points!

The Team Competition competition after one event is:

  • Team 4 – 5 Points
  • Team 5 – 4 Points
  • Team 3 – 3 Points
  • Team 1 – 2 Points
  • Team 2 – 1 Point

Next up is the California QSO Party this weekend.  There should be great conditions on all bands.  Get on and make some QSO’s, have some fun and support MWA (and your team).

MWA Friend Files

The various friend files for the different contest software have been updated based on current MWA membership. There are two versions for each program, one has MWA flag in the file so when it comes up on the screen you see MWA along with name, etc. Some people like this and others don’t.

The zip file name with MWA.zip at the very end has the MWA flag in the file.

Each zip file also has instructions on how to install with the particular software.
