Westlakes ARC
CQ Repeater Contest 2010



Westlakes unique FM CQ Repeater Contest where all amateurs
are encouraged to put a little life into the usually quiet repeaters.

The initial CQ Repeater contest was held in 1999 for the first seven days
of the New Year. The 2010 contest will be held over the period from
midnight Friday 30th April 2010 until Midnight Friday 7th May 2010.

The aim of all contests is to promote good will between amateurs and to
encourage on air activity. The big difference with our FM CQ Repeater
contest is that all contacts must be made on repeaters.
The rules are simple.

Open to all VK's, member or not using the following bands
6m, 2m, 70cm, 23cm FM.
IRLP, Echo-link contacts are NOT valid
Station contacted can only be logged once on any one day on any repeater Contest numbers do not have to be exchanged - just keep a record of the
date, station spoken to and on which repeater and at what time the contact
was made.
It doesn't get any simpler than that!

Award certificates for place getters for each frequency
Place getters with the highest overall contacts will also receive a certificate
A participation certificate is also available for any logs received
