Raynet Cup winner announced

Gwent Raynet has won the RSGB Raynet Cup for 2005/06. The cup is awarded annually to a Raynet group deemed to have provided exceptional service to amateur radio emergency communications.

Gwent Raynet was picked for the cup by a small judging panel made up of representatives from The Radio Amateurs' Emergency Network and the Radio Society of Great Britain.

The judges praised Gwent Raynet for "the substantial work done by them in tunnel communications, proving that 23cm works effectively in a number of tunnels and, in doing so, significantly enhancing the image of Raynet and amateur radio as a whole”.

The runner-up for the award was the North Dyfed Raynet Group.
