27th ALARA Contest
Well this was the best number of logs we have ever had! It was great to have such a large number of OMs taking part (even though there were many more on air who did not send a log!), and of course the interest shown by the F calls was terrific.
26th ALARA Contest
This year was an even better year than 2005. Conditions were excellent, with most of the activity taking place on 40 and 80 metres, and we had the greatest number of participants since 1993!
25th ALARA Contest
This year was a wonderful success - the conditions were much more favourable, and the inclusion of the triple points to celebrate Alara's 30th anniversary proved very popular.
24th ALARA Contest
The 2004 content was a successful event, both from the conditions and the numbers taking part.
