| ZS2VR | VR | Rizzo | 10/06/2023 | ZS2AB Constructor's Trophy | Vaughan has done an immense amount of research, and been building magnetic loop projects for a couple of years now. This year he has taken it to the next level. He has made parts with his CNC machine, printed prototype parts on his 3D printer, and is now producing mag loops in various sizes, that can be tuned to multiple bands. He's also working on a smaller portable version for SOTA outings, and the quality of the antennas he has made is exceptional. His mag loop antennas work phenomenally well, and from the lawn at his townhouse making solid DX contacts week after week. This is a true reflection of his engineering capability driven by his passion for amateur radio. | | ZR2BK | KP | Burger | 10/06/2023 | ZS2MIC DF Hunt Trophy | Because he won it! | | ZS2EC | T | Potgieter | 10/06/2023 | Merit Cup | With a very limited station he partakes in virtually all the competitions local or otherwise. He is one of the very few div2 operators that keeps the div2 flag flying high. He has achieved - and keeps on achieving - good scores in the competitions that he partakes in. | | ZS2DL | D | van Loggerenberg | 10/06/2023 | Appreciation Award | For conducting RAE classes and thereby boosting licensees in the PE area. | | ZS2DL | D | van Loggerenberg | 10/06/2023 | ZS2OB DX Trophy | Unanimously awarded for his DXCC achievement on 160 metres.

He has supported the Jamtin by doing great work on maintenance and infrastructure. He has assisted hams working in the Jamtin supporting DX work and competitions. He had also stepped in to keep the Jamtin operating during ZS2JIM’s health issues. Andrew shares his knowledge, experience and skills with other hams and is always willing to assist. | | ZS4JAN | J | Botha | 07/05/2023 | Southern African HF Century Award | For contacts made since 1st January 2004 to Maidenhead grid locators on the African mainland South of the Equator on the nine high frequency amateur bands Total score: 308 points in 16 countries, GOLD status |
