Dear friends,

It has been few weeks since our ES100 event found its end.
It was a huge success with 162 394 QSO's made!
Our congratulations go out to Sergei (RV9DC) who won the competition.
Begali Sculpture, Juniper Tankards and paper QSL's are being ordered and shipped soon.

You still have a chance to order a high quality paper copy of award(s) or nice wooden plaque (for those who made 100+ points).
Look up your call in http://es100.eu/?tab=progress and place your order!

We are happy to invite you to participate in annual ES OPEN HF Championship that will take place on this Saturday, April 21st.

It's a nice short 4 hour ES-chase from 05:00 to 08:59 UTC on 40m/80m in SSB/CW at the same time.
The contest consists of 4 equal one hour periods where you can work any ES station twice on both bands (once in CW and once in SSB).
Thus maximum 16 times in total during the contest for mixed mode entrants and 8 times for single mode entrants.
Multipliers are ES region prefixes (0 to 9) on both bands and modes.
CW QSOs give 2 points and SSB 1 point. Report is RST + QSO serial number.

N1MM, SD, DxLog, UcxLog support ES Open directly.

International winners get special trophies plus all country winners will be awarded. There is also a special LP trophy.

Some of you don't know but there is also a special "ESTONIA" award available.
So if you are couple of points shy of "ESTONIA" award, this is your chance to get those missing QSO's!
