RSGB Contest Results 2nd 1.8MHz Contest 2020

v4.158 by G4CLA

2nd 1.8 MHz contest 2020

The concluding event of this year's HF Championship attracted a bumper entry of 132 plus 9 checklogs, one third more than last year (97) and the highest number in the last 20 years. 300 additional callsigns appeared in the logs, 76 of which were located in France and, in total, 30 DXCCs participated in the event. Perhaps we have something to be grateful for in these strange times of lockdown.

The Victor Desmond Trophy, awarded to the highest scoring UK&CD station (regardless of section), was won for the 15th time by Clive, GM3POI who topped the Assisted UK section, with Graham, G4FNL and Dave, G3TBK (M7W) taking the other two podium places in that category.

The winner of the Unassisted UK section was Don, G3BJ using his contest call G5W and scoring just 33 points fewer than Clive. The runner up was Fred, G4BWP with Allan, GM4ZUK in third place.

In the Non-UK sections, Martin GD4XUM using the club call EI7M, prevailed in the Assisted Section with Algis, LY7M and Leif, 8S0DX in second and third places respectively.

Finally, the first placed Unassisted station was Al, EU4E, runner up was Algis, LY4ZZ and, in third place, Jiri, OK1OA.

Congratulations to Clive, GM3POI and all the certificate winners
