1.3GHz UK ACTIVITY CONTEST - 17/12/19 AND 2019 WHOLE YEAR RESULTS

81 entries were received for the December 2019 1.3GHz UKAC session (14 section AO, 21 section AR and 46 section AL). This was 21 down on November, and was in fact the second lowest entry of the year. A total of 138 valid calls appear in the logs, from 34 big squares and 11 DXCC entities. The best DX was once again between G3XDY and SK7MW in JO65 square at 861km.

Conditions were universally reported as poor or very poor (expressed using various alternative sets of words....), with weak signals and the going hard. Correspondingly, with one exception activity was considered low with several regulars missing. Taken together with reports of deep QSB plus cold and rain, this was clearly not a good session from which to sign off from the 2019 1.3GHz UKAC season.

The next session, the first of the 2020 season, takes place on, takes place on Tuesday 21st January between 2000 and 2230 UTC.

Moving now onto the results for the year as a whole, the total number of entries is holding up well, with 1112 received during 2019, just five down on the total for 2018. The number of entries per month varied between 92 in February and 103 in August, very similar to the distribution in 2018, and the number of stations appearing in entrant's logs followed a similar pattern, varying between 138 in December and 186 in August. The best DX of the year was between Keith G4ODA and SM6VTZ in JO58 square at 970km during the July session, but the laurels for best DX consistency must go John G3XDY for his contacts with SK7MW in JO65 at 861km in eight of the twelve sessions!
