Results of three more contests from 2008 haven't changed the headline from the World Radiosport Team Championships qualifying in Africa, as Jorge Taboada Pareja EA9LZ continues to lead the field in the race for the one African team leader slot.
Pareja picked up no points from the 2008 WAE SSB, IARU and WPX CW contests, as he remains at 4,298 points.
Moving into second now is Juan Hidalgo EA8CAC, as he took top honors in Africa in the WAE SSB test to add 730 points to his totals.
Hidalgo trails EA9LZ by 926 points overall, down from 1,391 in the last radio-sport.net update.
Operators from the Canary Islands (EA8) continue to make up the second place through sixth place slots, but jumping ahead into the top ten is a new face, as Andrew Roos ZS6AA is by far the highest placed African outside of EA8 and CT3.
At stake is one team leader slot from Africa in the 2010 World Radiosport Team Championships in Russia.
Here are the top five operators from Africa as found by radio-sport.net. You can see a full spreadsheet link at the end of this data.
There are no more qualifying events left for stations in Africa, but results must still come in from three contests, the 2008 CQ WW DX SSB and CW tests and the 2009 Russian DX contest.
The unofficial results produced here by radio-sport.net include the final published results of the 2006, 2007 and 2008 IARU, the 2006, 2007 and 2008 WAE CW and WAE SSB, the 2006 and 2007 CQ WW CW and SSB contests, 2007 and 2008 ARRL DX SSB & CW, 2007 & 2008 Russian DX, along with the 2007 and 2008 CQ WPX SSB and CW tests.
(Radio-sport.net has tried to be as accurate as possible. If you find a mistake, or that your score line is missing a contest result, please send us an email and we will be happy to check and correct the numbers.)
The qualifying rules allow you to submit your top eight scores from certain contests. No more than four may be from multi-operator efforts.
You will note that some scores in the spreadsheets have been colored in. All multi-ops are noted with a yellow background. Scores from a contest operation outside of your home WRTC region are colored in blue.
A score that was both outside your home region and from a multi-op has a purple color.
