This contest was well supported, helped by good band conditions. The stay-at-home requirements currently in place due to Covid-19 probably contributed to the level of support. 51 logs were received, enabling 69% of QSOs to be cross-checked. We were delighted to receive 21 logs from overseas stations, their participation contributes significantly to the viability of the HF counties contests, as evidenced by the fact that an overseas station was at one end of 49% of the valid QSOs.
Excluding 'uniques', almost 100 stations were in the logs, including 60 EI and GI stations. CW accounted for only 5% of QSOs, just 8 Irish counties were heard on CW. | |||||
