RSGB Contest Results 2019   
v4.145 by G4CLA

SHF UKAC November 2019

Activity was a little lower than usual according to reports, and conditions unexceptional for this session. An increasing number of stations are sharing equipment with colleagues to boost their club scores, across all the bands.

Annual Summary

68 stations entered on 2.3GHz this year (up 6), with 36 on 10GHz (down 4). On 3.4GHz numbers increased from 23 to 28 and on 5.7GHz decreased from 29 to 25.

For 2020 the timings for all bands will be harmonised to run 1930 - 2230 local time. This means that entrants must take extra care to ensure they do not cause any interference to the primary user during daylight hours. More guidance will be included in the 2020 rules.

The use of square root normalisation has not attracted any comments, but has helped some of the bigger groups amass large club scores using relatively simple equipment with judicious use of equipment sharing.

Stations wishing to take part in the 2.3GHz events are reminded that they must register their station with Ofcom, and also hold the relevant notice of variation if they wish to use 2300-2302MHz.
