Spokane DX Association

The results of the Salmon Run (Washington QSO Party), held on September 19-20, 2015, are available at this SALMON RUN RESULTS LINK. The contest is sponsored by our sister DX club – the Western Washington DX Club (WWDXC) of the Seattle area. Awards are given for the highest score in each of the 39 Washington counties. The SDXA gives a plaque to the high score in this category:

Single Operator
Operating from the EWA Section of the ARRL (20 of the 39 counties)
Low Power
Mixed Mode (2 or more of the 3 modes).

We have had quite a few different SDXA member winners including both Gary K7OX (3 times) and Lamar WA7LT (one time), two of the founders of the SDXA. Also, Wilse WX7P (SK) once. But the most-time winner is W7WMO Gene Bye in Ephrata who won it from Grant County five times.

And Guess what? He has won it again this year! Six times out of 13 contests! His score this year was 52,976 points from 245 QSOs and 73 multipliers.

Congratulations again to Gene Buy W7WMO of Ephrata.

In the club competition, SDXA took 7th with a total of 172,078 points. In the Washington CW mobile category, Randy K7TQ/m and his sidekick Jay WA0WWW took first with 498 QSOs. Non-SDXA AB7MP took first from Spokane County with the highest score. Don’t we have any Spokane County members in the SDXA? Chuck KI7DG had the high score from Okanogan County with 68,992 points.
