October UHF

The last UHF contest of the year received 32 entries (26 in 2019).  It can hardly be described as a popular contest and a number of entrants noted the lack of activity and poor conditions.  Weather was described as dreadful.  Inevitably most QSO's were made during the partly concurrent 1.2GHz and 2.3 GHz Trophy contests.

This event is co-ordinated with a IARU Region 1 contest and the R1 logs were obtained and were used to assist with adjudication.

G3RCW (M0ZMF) comments 'worst activity levels I have ever experienced ... please guys its time for for some changes . Difficult task but when something no longer works it needs fixing ....'  The co-ordination with the R1 event somewhat fixes the timing - but most entrants simply submit their logs from Saturday.  Is there a better format for this contest ?  Suggestions to VHFCC please.

Congratulations go to:

  • Steve G1PPA/P wins the Single Operator Others section
  • Joint runners up in Single Operator Others Open were the three Warrington Contest Group stations M1W, G3R and G3CKR/P
  • John G3XDY who again wins Single Operator Fixed
  • John G4ZTR who was runner up in Single Operator Fixed
  • Frank PE1EWR  was leading overseas station
  • Andy 2E0XMB was leading Intermediate Station
  • Congratulations to the remaining Band Certificate winners
