[UK-CONTEST] Recent RSGB contest results - (Sprints)

[stewart rolfe]

Thanks Graham and others involved in putting these on. Activity is still too low but there are definite signs that more folk are having a go - I counted 4 'first timers' from the soapbox comments for the final cw event; that's got to be positive.

Still a little disappointing how few use the 'correct' exchange format which is really needed in a sprint to avoid having to wait for the completion of a contact to work out who is going and who is available to work. Perhaps a bit of 'information carpet bombing' before the start of next year's series will be needed (reflector, contest pages of Radcom etc...). This will really make a difference if activity ever does take off.

Good to see continued support from the EU regulars too - eg PG7V, YL3DX and some of the F-stns. See you next year!

73,
