Not sure at all where you are looking Chris; but this is the list I found;
and it looks all right here:

You've not been on the red wine too early today have you ??  Time to go on
the wagon................

You are correct about some redundant trophies though - I would like to see
them reallocated to other worthy events...........

I was just looking up the definition of some RSGB Trophies listed on the
official RSGB website and noticed a few errors plus several trophies still
listed for contests that no longer exist. I suspect the list has been
scanned from another document but not checked by a knowledgeable person. I
also wondered if any attempt had been made to re-allocate the unused ones.

I was particularly amused by " Low Flower Field Day," "Winnerloveralt,"
"SSE," "21128MHw Contest" and not forgetting the 30m Contest!!! That one
could raise up few letters to Radcom!! (which no doubt would be published!

If any one feels I should Put Up or Shut, I would be happy to do the
corrections if I was supplied with an accurate up to date list.
