10GHz Trophy Contest 1997

The winners, by a considerable margin, were the Northern Lights group who made 33 contacts with a best DX of 422km. The runners up, Telford & DARS, also managed 20 multipliers with 31 QSOs and a best DX of 272km.

A number of entrants commented on the fact that as this is part of the 432 and up contest, many of the continental operators do not have 144 MHz talkback available which is not the case for a normal cumulative - hence lost opportunities for both ends. Some requests were made to separate the events. Others thought there were too many events.
