From January 21-23, 2000, more than 100 contesters from Finland, and more than 40 contesters from abroad, got together for a very fine meeting in Helsinki. It was my second time there, after I had been invited to give a presentation on my CN8WW activities the year before, too. Again this meeting was perfectly organised by the "Contest Club Finland" (CCF). The audience could listen to almost fifteen excellent presentations all relating to Amateur Radio Contesting. I myself was giving a Powerpoint presentation on "The planning and organisation behind the M/M activity of CN8WW". Here you can view some extracts from most of the presentations (including my own): http://www.qsl.net/oh1noa/ccf2000/ccf2000.htm.
