144MHz Backpackers Championship of 2006

A total of fifty stations competed for the 144MHz Backpackers Championship this year.

As in previous years, the competition for the top places has been intense with several new (to the backpackers) call signs appearing in leading positions in the results.

Congratulations to by Derek Gilbert, G0NFA/P, for winning the 144MHz Backpackers Championship for 2006. Steve Brown, M0SGB/P, is the runner-up.

This year, Dave Cutts, 2E0EBV/P, receives the Leading Intermediate Station certificate.

The rules of the Backpackers Contests have been slightly altered. Please read the new rules before you enter the 2007 Backpacker contests.

Finally, thank you to all of the stations that took part in this year's Backpacker contests.

Ian, G0FCT
