2015-2016 FINAL CTRI Champions Competition Leaderboard

The results are in for the CQ WW VHF contest and are shown in the Leaderboard associated with the link below. This will be the final posting of the Leaderboard because at the meeting on the 23rd of July, the members present voted to suspend the CTRI Champions Competition for a year and during that time discuss whether it should be terminated, revised, and reinstated after the year suspension.

Don’t forget that we are using a handicapping system and show both the Raw Score as well as the handicapped score. To learn more about the handicapping, see this posting on the club website…

CTRI Meeting Saturday 23 July

James,

Thanks for posting this. May I suggest we add to the agenda the club contest competition: Do we want to continue it? Modify it? Also, Ken is looking for someone to take the responsibility of keeping the score sheet spread sheet should we elect to continue.

I will not be at tomorrow’s meeting. We are unveiling my wife’s grave stone at the cemetery tomorrow morning, and I have family and guests in from out of town. In addition, the woman who was closest to Linda was just this week diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer. Needless to say, I’ve been a bit distracted for the past couple weeks.

The club trustee change has been submitted to ARRL VEC, but we have not seen any results yet. I will personally check on its status this coming Thursday when I am at HQ for my volunteer work. There have been some recent issues at FCC with the licensing servers (or something like that) so that may be the issue. I’ll let everyone know once I find out.

Mike (RFJ) and John (AN) know what’s going on with the non-profit part of the incorporation.

James, I trust you are feeling much better, and that you’re on the road back to perfect health.

Ed, I haven’t yet made time to look into broadcasting the club meetings on the internet.

Mike, K1DM

2016 CQ WW VHF Results

If there were members out there that made contacts in this contest, please post your results here for inclusion in the CTRI Champions competition. This is the last contest in this season’s competition. I stepped into the shack on 4 or 5 different occasions and only once did I any stations on 6 meters.

I will ask that this competition be reviewed at the meeting next Saturday. Should we keep it going? Does anyone out there want to take over the maintenance of the online leaderboard? Should the contests included be changed?

Field Day Photos

Some of you took photos during Field Day.  Skyscrapers requested we send them some photos of our operation to share at one of their meetings.  Of course, it would be nice to see some at our July meeting as well.  Please send them to me as an attachment to w1xx AT cox DOT net.  K1DM is in the process of putting together our entry.  TNX & 73!  — John, W1XX
