Sideband – April 16, 2023
The Rookie Roundup Contest was held Sunday, April 16th. Our group competed as Multi-Op using the club call VE7SAR and included Doug VE7JDJ, Dmitry VE7DVO, Alex VA7PVC, and Larry VE7LXB. John VE7TI and John VA7XB supervised our group while rookies Andrew VA7LGN and Dale VE7LWT came by to cheer us on. Although propagation conditions were not optimal, we made 38 QSO’s over 16 states and 2 provinces. Our final score was 1026 including multipliers. Not too shabby for our first time competing in this contest. We can’t wait for next year!
The BIG smile says it all! Recent SARC Basic Course graduate Alex VA7PVC makes his first HF contact with proud papa Dmitry VA7DVO and Doug VA7JDJ looking on.
LATE NEWS: Team SARC placed 1st in the multi-op VE category and 5th place overall in multi-op across N. America.
