IDM PSK Challenge - Results

In an earlier post I mentioned I was taking part in the IDM PSK Challenge between 18 and 24 July 2011. Propogation was very poor on the 11 meter band during the contest and I was very busy towards the end of the week so I could not take part as much as I hopped. Here are the result of the contest : -
First place: 26IDM010 Paul (6 points)
Second place (tie): 14IDM113 Jean-Yves (3 points)
14IDM003 Olivier (3 points)

So it looks like I won! Special thanks to Jean-Yves and Oliver who were my two contacts durring the contest!

I am looking forward to the IDM all digi-modes open contest which will be held on 22nd to 28th of August 2011. I expect as in the previous contest most operators will be 'contesting' around 27.740 USB.
