UA9CLB, JH4UYB, ZC4LI LEAD THREE ASIA REGIONS FOR WRTC 2010

By Jamie Dupree NS3T, radio-sport.net 

A new review of qualifying results for the 2010 World Radiosport Team Championships in Russia shows that the leaders in three Asian regions all stayed the same, as new results came in from the 2007 WAE SSB, IARU and CQ WPX Contests.

Masaki Masa Okano JH4UYB once again added to his lead in the latest radio-sport.net review, as he chalked up a regional high power win in CQ WPX SSB.

Okano leads by almost 1,900 points in the battle for one team leader slot from Japan over Seiichiro Morikawa JF1SQC, who added points from the 2007 IARU to jump into second place in As #1.

In AS #2 is the overall Asian leader, as Vadim Ovasiannikov UA9CLB has 5,688 points overall. His lead though was trimmed by Igor Sokolov UA9CDC, as they lead the race for two team leader spots in Asiatic Russia.

Meanwhile, in AS #3, which comprises all areas in Asia outside of Japan and Asiatic Russia, Steve Hodgson ZC4LI chalked up points in both the WAE SSB and IARU contests, but saw his lead dwindle as Vladimir Vinichenko UN9LW used a first place finish in WPX SSB to get within 101 points of first place.

Three team leader slots are available in AS #3, and for now, Champ E21EIC continues to hold that spot, narrowly ahead of Faisal Al-Ajmi 9K2RR of Kuwait, who is now in fourth place.

In Asian qualifying, the WRTC rules give one team leader slot to Japan, two to Asiatic Russia and three slots to AS #3.
