Hello Bob, Thanks for the BERU update. Good timing. Only yesterday I heard that my 3B8XF licence has been renewed for our trip to Mauritius in March. This’ll be our third trip to 3B8 for BERU. 73 - Nigel G3TXF
2019 Latitude Factor = 1.68

As a result of relatively (!) improved propagation south of the equator compared to the north and some other factors, including section choices made by some entrants, the latitude factor has reverted from an all-time high in 2018 to 1.68 for 2019. Prospective team captains and members should take note!
(I am attaching the spread-sheet used for this calculation, from which the movements since 2007 can be seen. you can request from me)

RSGB CC – Thank you!

Hello RSGB Contest Committee and Bob G3PJT:
Thank you very much for the miniature Rose Bowl. It arrived in the mail over the Christmas period and now has a place of honour in my ham shack, beside other trophies and awards for my previous efforts in the Commonwealth Contest.
Wining BERU in 2018 was a great thrill and one of my proudest accomplishments in my Amateur Radio career.
I have attached a few photos.
73,
Dave Goodwin VE9CB
