Ham Radio SECRETS: Setting Up A Contest Station for Success

Post author By admin
Post date August 15, 2022

Contesting (also known as radiosport) is a competitive activity pursued by amateur radio operators. This is how I setup and run my station in the recent Remembrance Day contest – a 24 hour long contest that requires skill, endurance and patience amongst other things!

The Final PUSH! 18 Hours into Ham Radio Contest | Stream #4

Post author By admin
Post date August 11, 2022

It’s coming up on the crack of dawn, 7am now… I’ve been awake probably close to 24 hours now at this stage – which is the equivalent of a 0.10 percent blood alcohol reading! I still have 6 hours to go though! Join me for the final push to the finish line.

That’s right, I’m streaming a ham radio contest for 24 HOURS! How many contacts will I make? Will I stay awake? Tune in to find out!

*Please note I cannot show my operating frequency as that is self spotting and against the spirit of the contest*

*The logging software used is VKCL* (no longer developed) – https://www.mnds.com.au/vkcl/

My goal is to beat my previous personal bests:
VK7HH Personal Best: 1030 points (2021 – 2nd place)
Cronies +1 Team Personal Best: 2932 points (2021 – 1st place)

About the Remembrance Day Contest: https://www.wia.org.au/members/contests/rdcontest/

This contest commemorates the Amateurs who died during World War II and is designed to encourage friendly participation and help improve the operating skills of participants. It is held on the weekend closest to the 15th August, the date on which hostilities ceased in the southwest Pacific area.

A perpetual trophy is awarded annually to the Australian state or territory with the best performance. The name of the winning State or Territory is inscribed on the trophy, and that State or Territory then holds the trophy for 12 months. The winning State or Territory is also given a certificate, as are leading entrants.

Equipment:
HF: Icom IC-7300 + DX Commander All Band Vertical
VHF/UHF: Icom IC-9700 + Diamond V2000 vertical + 18 element 23cm yagi
Microwave IF Radio: Icom IC-705
2.4 GHz: SG-Lab Transverter + 24dBi Gridpack
3.4 GHz SG-Lab Transverter + 27dBi Gridpack
