Results sheet of the QRP race at VKV 2004 European Hamradio portal

QRP race to VHF in 2004, it again attracted a lot of supporters of low-power operation, who measured their strength on the 144 MHz band. In the atmosphere of sporting tension, technical precision and friendly rivalry, it was decided not only about who could hear the farthest, but also about who would manage to get the most out of little.

In the SINGLE op category, the fight for victory was fought until the last minutes. The top ranks were occupied by operators who were able to make perfect use of their antenna systems and precisely time each connection. The well-deserved winner was OK1ZAD from the JN69VN locator, which with a power of 10 W and a 13-element DL6WU antenna achieved 160 connections and 36,453 points, while the longest connection was made with station YU1BN at a distance of 786 km.

The other places were no less exciting either - the differences between the second and third place counted for hundreds of points. Operators demonstrated not only technical knowledge, but also endurance in variable propagation conditions.

In the MULTI op category, it was once again confirmed that teamwork and well-coordinated technique are the key to success. The winning team OK1OPT confirmed its qualities with a performance of 10 W, 126 QSO and with a total gain of 27,609 points, which narrowly surpassed the competing collectives OK2KLD and OK2KGP.
