Westlakes CQ Repeater Contest

Australia's Westlakes Amateur Radio Club will be running its popular CQ Repeater Contest during May.

This year's contest will be on for one week commencing midnight Friday 1st May 2009 and finishing at 12 midnight Friday 8th May.

The aim of the contest is to encourage more activity on what are becoming little-used VK repeaters.

The frequencies will be 70cm, 2m, and 6m and mode is FM.

All amateurs, members or not, are invited to join in.

The rules are simple. Make as many contacts as you can on the repeaters over the week commencing May One.

However a station can only be logged as a contact once on any given day on any of the chosen repeaters.

All your log needs to show is the date, repeater frequency, and station contacted. It's as simple as that.

This is a fun contest so make the effort to take part. There will be certificates for the winning stations on each of the nominated bands.

IRLP / EchoLink contact not valid.

Logs to be in by Friday 29th May sent to W.A.R.C. Inc. PO Box 3001 Teralba NSW 2284 C/- Contest Manager

Whatever repeater's VK's can access are eligible.
