RSGB Contest Results 144MHz Trophy 2023

v4.158 by G4CLA

144 MHz Trophy Contest 2023

With enhanced propagation and good weather over most of the UK, this contest was enjoyed by many entrants. A few station complained of high local noise from solar panels/inverters that made making any contacts a challenge.

There were 15 contacts over 1000km and 29 contacts over 900km. The best contact by a UK&CD entrant was between G0VHF/P and OM6A at 1273km.

The number of logs received this year was 137 (including six checklogs). This is a welcome increase on the total for 2022. There were 82 logs in 2015, 85 in 2016, 109 in 2017, 118 in 2018, 128 in 2019, 178 logs in 2020, 138 in 2021, and 114 in 2022. This year, logs were received from eight countries (EI, F, G, GD, GM, GW, LX, PA).

Congratulations to the Trophy and Certificate winners listed below.
