If I haven't got my days muddled up, which I seem to do a lot a the moment, today is the last day for this. Good luck to anyone who manages to get on the radio for a bit today, I think we'll need it, as for me at least it's been vey quiet for new entities for some week.

I'm just glad I had my little flurry of activity day Neal and didn't land up with nil-point. (Again! )
Everyone's done brilliantly well and it has been a lot of fun.

Many thanks Neal for your efforts running the Summer Challenge 2023, it was great fun as usual!
I’ll send my congratulations to the winner when the final table is shown. Hope you all winter well, and hopefully catch some of you on the 40 Metre Net on Thursdays.
John

I've had a scan through the contacts and believe everything is in order with no dupes etc. If anyone has spotted mistakes I've missed then do let know, but I don't think there's anything major that would change positions. And with that the League Table has had it's final edit for 2023 by me.
Well done everyone for getting points on the board in what was, at least in my opinion, a little harder year than last year. I think everyone who has taken part has done awesomely. I still didn't manage bl**dy Wales this year though lol.
Congrats to Al for taking the top spot Amazing effort, almost hitting the 100, but am sure is more than content with taking Antarctica instead.

Not wishing the year away, but looking forward to next year. Will put myself a reminder to drum up some interest earlier on than we did this year.
If the proposed licence changes go through, how much do we have to pay Craig and Al not to take part so we can rent out and remote into their stations to use their big beamy things?

A huge thanks to you Neal for keeping it altogether, I'm sure very much appreciated by all who took part.
Very well done to everyone for being involved, it's been a lot of fun.
(I was still very much the underdog again this year but chuffed I finally garnered some points with my lawnmower lead! )

Thank you all, I tried sooooo hard to get to 100 lol. Brilliant effort from all who took part. I did have a 5 eli yagi and being retired certainly helped a lot. Surprised by the countries I missed lol Neal, great challenge and very well run, hats off to you sir, and doing it all again next year, cant wait

Big well done to Al another top effort matey and a big well done to Neal for keeping everything in order , really appreciated
The sporadic E season just didn’t really happen for me this time , missed out on loads of the usual suspects DX on 10 over the early weeks was really good and had high hopes for breaking the 100 dxcc mark , maybe next time As always great fun
