Re:Canada Day contest 2010 - 2010/09/28 13:52Again, CGQ members are héros hi. ------------------------------------------
Good day everyone
The results for the 2010 Canada Day contest have been compiled and sent to the The Canadian Amateur (TCA) magazine for publication in the November/December issue.
Given that TCA publishes on a bi-monthly (every two months) schedule, the contest management team has reviewed the policy of not publishing the results on the RAC web site until after the TCA. This review has resulted in a change in this policy. We will now publish on the RAC web site once the results are ready with a follow-up in TCA at the next available publication date.
With that decision, this is the first opportunity for the contest management team to publish results on the web ahead of the magazine publication.
On behalf of the contest management team, thanks again to all those who participated in the 2010 event. Certificates will be going out in the next week or so with plaques sent out shortly there after.
As in the recent past, we will be emailing out printable certificates and continue to mail the plaques to the various category winners.
If there are any questions or issues with the results, please let me know.
73, Bart - VE5CPU RAC Canada Day Contest Manager

Re:Canada Day contest 2010 - 2010/11/18 07:41From Canada-Contest Reflector: ------------------------------------
Three items I hope to bring to everyone’s attention:
ONE: During the RAC Summer Contest, there was only a few official RAC stations active. In speaking with one of the RAC directors, he indicated that folks should request use of their respective provinces RAC callsign about a month before the contest. So – the time to ask is NOW.
The process is easy. You MUST be a member of RAC, and you need to ask the respective provincial director for permission to use the call. Its as simple as that Here’s hoping we will be able to activate ALL the respective provincial RAC calls.
TWO: After the RAC Summer Contest, one common complaint on 3830 is how WE (Canadians) operated (phone) on 40 meters. Looking at the rules, 7075 and 7225 are the suggested frequencies. If you are operating on 40 phone, please spend some time on or near 7225 (ideal) or above 7175 – the U.S. General Class portion of the band. I gather the issue is – folks hang out in the 7050-7100 part of the band and only work other Canadians. This makes it hard for U.S. amateurs wanting to contact us, and pick up those all-important multipliers and 10 point QSO’s.
THREE: This is OUR contest, and folks around the world want to work US. Even if you are a small station, please spend some time calling CQ/running. Lots of folks want to work YOU, and you need to call CQ for them to find you.
Hope everyone gets on and has some fun. Time to wave the flag and let our National pride show!

Re:Canada Day contest 2010 - 2010/11/18 09:41Yes Victor, would be nice to have VA2RAC operating on 5 bands. Of course winter timing is a problem but will see. Anyway, for sure few members could do the job. Let's see who could be on the air for the next winter RAC contest and will rent the call.

Re:Canada Day contest 2010 - 2010/11/18 12:53Qui serait d'opérer sous l'indicatif VA2RAC pour le concours Winter Canada Contest ? Si l'indicatif est toujours disponible, nous déciderons alors quel gendre d'opérations nous favoriserons. Un seul site en M/M, ou à partir de différentes stations ou simplement une station multibandes, multimodes.

Re:Canada Day contest 2010 - 2010/11/18 18:24J'ai demandé à James de faire enquète car VE2xxxxx n'est pas membre de RAC et VE2CQ n'est pas non plus un club affilié... On verra. Oui pour Juillet j'y pense hi.
