IslandHF SSB Contest Team

From its beginning the IslandHF Radio Association thought that HF contesting would be a fun activity for its members. The first contest entered by an IslandHF team for the NA SSB Sprint Contest.

The contest is unique in a couple of ways: it’s a “sprint” of just four hours. Moreover, operators can not sit on a frequency. After they have made contact, they must QSY 5 KHz.

The team score a very modest 1450 points. But it was a fun start. Here are a couple of screen captures from the 3830 Scores web site with the team members and their scores.
