RSGB Contest Results March 144 432MHz 2024

v4.145 by G4CLA

March 144/432 MHz 2024

The first contest of the VHF Championship in 2024. The commonest comments was `Poor Conditions and low activity'. Many sites reports the lack of Eu stations, however, looking at some of the ODX's there were one or two around, on 2m it is G2N QSO with OK1KCR at 1058km and the 70cm is G3M QSO with OE5D at 922km.

Entries were slightly down on 2023. On 2m there were 84 (down from) 97 entrants and on 70cm 71 (72 in 2023). There was a wide range of power with the new licence changes from QRP at 10w to the new full 1000w.

Congratulations to all other table leaders and runners up, who together with stations identified, have been awarded certificates.
