RSGB Contest Results 144MHz May Contest 2026

v4.182.1 by G4CLA

Following a significant decline in participation, the Contest Committee conducted a consultation and initially decided to change the event to a single six-hour session in early May to align with other European 144MHz contests.

However, this change proved unpopular with many entrants who found it difficult to take advantage of the European activity. After further consultation, we decided to move the contest back to its original date and return it to a full 24-hour event.

Entry levels are, unfortunately, still disappointing, with many commenting on the lack of a six hour section, which we look to reintroduce next year.

Congratulations to all certificate winners, listed below.

Pete, G4CLA.

This contest is part of the following contest series VHF Championship
