members (G3TKF, G3XSV, G4FKA, G0HFX, M0WLF) were back in Curacao this year from 22nd to 31st July including the IOTA
Contest on 27/28th July. We used PJ2Y again during
the contest and PJ2/owncall at other times on all bands 80m to
6m. QSL to home call or to G3SWH for PJ2Y. Take
a look at the photos or the claimed
scores. ...and at EI7M

East Cork Group during the IOTA
Contest.

RSGB
Jubilee Contest
|
The
special call GQ6YB was aired for the first and only time
during the unique Jubilee Contest in June 2002. The
Bristol Contest Group went all out to win this contest
operating Field Day style from one of our best local sites in
Bath. And we're pleased to say we
did win the Multi-op section of the contest.

Shirehampton Club in Bristol for the loan of their QTH.
We were surprised how well we got out from this waterside
location with just a tribander at 60ft and dipole antennas.
We repeated the experience in November from the same location.
