Three New Records
Dave VE2ZP (recognizable to you all!) set a new Single Op low power record 110k above the old one.
Bruce ZF2NT changed his tactics from last year, when he was second in the Single Op high power category,
and set a new 10m record two and a half
times the old one. The old record had stood since 1980.
Norm VE3VFR just managed to set a new 40m record by 588 points over the old record.
Congratulations to our new record holders!

Single OP All Bands (High Power)
This year’s leader, Mike VE9AA, was some 219k ahead of second place Bill N0AC (operating at N0NI). Mike’s ability to get a large number of DX
contacts (988) plus 23 more mults than his competition helped him. Third place went to perennial top place finisher Robby VY2SS just 2K above
fourth place Tim VE1RX. Only 38K separated the second through fourth place.
Single OP Low Power
Again this category is the most popular with 106 participants. In setting a new record Dave VE2ZP managed a 172K margin over Sam VE5SF to take
first place. Dave also had the most mults (134) of any entrant and would have placed second among the high-power ops. Third was Chris VA3NR
followed by Bart VE5CPU in fourth place.
Single Op QRP
23 Contesters participated in this class. Ted VE3FUL took top spot this year. Taking second spot was David VE6BIR/7 followed closely by John
VE3JC

This category proved to be the second most popular with 82 entrants. Two records fell this year: Bruce ZF2NT demolished the 10m record while
operating from the Cayman Islands while Norm VE3VFR just squeaked out a new 40m record.
Bruce ZF2NT placed first in this category followed by Gary VE3XN and moving west we have the Calgary Amateur Radio Association DX Club
VE6AO (VE6TC): the next three places were taken by VE3’s: Addy VE3NO, Robert CG3KZ (VE3KZ) and Norm VE3VFR.
Richard VA3Rao led the way on 80m followed by Gary VE6CV and Terry VE7TLL. Only 20 points separated Gary and Terry.
Norm VE3VFR put together a new record on 40m. Peter VE6YC placed ahead of Jean-Paul VE1RN/VE3.
Gary VE3XN led the pack on 20m followed by the Calgary Amateur Radio Association DX Club VE6AO (VE6TC), just behind was Addy VA3NO.
Way behind in 4th place was yours truly Dave VE7CFD.
15m saw a great effort by Yuri (CF3UZ (VA3UZ) who had 4 times as many Q’s as second place David N7DR, close behind was Rawn VE3RMO,
Benoit VE2BWJ took fourth place. 2nd through 4th were only separated by just over 2K.
10m saw the first 3 all beating the old record, Bruce ZF2NT setting the new one followed by Robert CG3KZ (VE3KZ) and Patrick VE7AGJ. 10m
had the highest participation of operators from abroad with 78% of the Q’s in this category being DX.
Pierre VE2PIJ and Sheldon VE2SHW were respectively the sole entrants in 6m and 2m
Multi-Op
Over 95 operators took part in the Multi-Op class including an all YL crew from the Takabana Elementary School Ham Club in Japan. The category
was again led by Don VE6JY and his team of 7 seven operators. Bill and the VE5RAC crew took second place followed by Ken VA3SK’s three
person team from the Hamilton ARC. In fourth place the Loyalist City ARC (Saint John) VE9RAC followed by Pat’s W5WMU 2 person effort.
