RESULTS OF THE FIRST EDITION

WORLD WIDE IRON HAM  CONTEST 2012

We are pleased to announce the final results of our WW IRON HAM CONTEST ADXG
first edition 2012.

We have the firm commitment to   annually reduce the time for the
announcement of the final results of our contest. This year accordingly with
our initial schedule we are showing the final results 30 days after the
contest end.

We would like to emphasize that this achievement has been possible thanks to
the use of  a extremely fast and accurate log checking software developed by
our friend  UA4WLI, also developer of the TR4W contest log among several
other SWs.

This is our first WWIH edition and we are glad to see a considerable number
of hams all over the world showing there abilities on three modes operation,
CW, PHONE and RTTY. We express our best thanks for the important support of
all participants.

Being the first edition a quite big number of hams made a low number of
contacts and our check log program validate only QSOs that appears correctly
on three or more logs submitted within 72 hours after the contest end.

Accordingly with our philosophy all received logs are going to be open to
all participants, as final results and UBN log checking results. All those
information are going to be available on our WEB page within 10 days from
this announcement.

Note:  Being the first edition of the WWIH contest, it is natural to
observe,  a considerable reduction of the claim score in consequence of a
big number of participants  with a low number of QSOs. The majority of those
participants decided not to send their logs within the 72 hours limit. So
the log checking program cut off all QSOs not correctly showed  minimum of
three times in the received logs.

The participant with the biggest number of contacts  (1449 QSOs) NP4Z, made
a different interpretation of the rules using the two stations M2AB on
different modes at the same time. Accordingly with the rules both stations
should be on the same mode even if they are on different bands. Because of
that NP4Z´s final score was drastically reduced. 

The Contest Committee considered that the text of the rules could give the
reader a different interpretation and there is no doubt that the participant
was transparent and honest on his log.

The Contest Committee contacted the winner PT5T and the operators agreed
that the prize established on the rules for the M2AB winner should be given
to NP4Z for his fantastic performance .

For the next year we will re-wording the text  in a more clear way.

Comments - Contest Organizers:

We are glad to see that more than 2900 callsigns representing 123  DXCC
entities appeared on the logs received. It is much more than what we
expected  for the first year. 

Thanks you all for supporting  WWIH.

We hope to see you next year.
