KG9ZSINGLE-OP LOW2nd night prop poor
KH6AQMULTI-OPAnother portable operation by NH6V and KH6AQ on the coast of Hawaii island. The 1/4 wavelength wire sloping towards the top of a 140' tree worked against two elevated radials parallel to, and 50' from, the ocean. Manmade noise was nonexistent and
KJ9CSINGLE-OP HIGHAmp gave out Friday night. Rough sledding after that
KK0UASSISTED LOWWell, that's nice round numbers for a nice round score. Tried to catch WX9RT, but just couldn't keep up, or work the DX in the end. Conditions seemed pretty good -- no storm noise here. Signals were very weak, but totally readable. Not a lot of QSB, but i
KK9VASSISTED HIGHLots of fun. Still need better receive antennas.
KM1PMULTI-OPHad a fun time with budding CW operator Christophe K1SJ who started learning CW only weeks before the contest.
KS7TSINGLE-OP LOWWhat else besides operate a contest can a guy do at 31 below zero, hi hi. No I didn't stay up all night, had to get under the warm covers sometimes. Besides, the horrible propagation due to ongoing negative polarity events on the sun caused openings to be

KX0RSINGLE-OP LOW100% Hunt & Pounce
KX9RTASSISTED LOWGave it my best shot and feel like I have a lot yet to learn and looking for ways to improve my 160 scores. I missed out on AK, ND, and DC. I heard DC early, but never again. AK I couldn't snag on the second night as I waited through the early AM K3 into

N6PESINGLE-OP LOWSo many station couldn't hear me hi hi waiting for my new amp.
N7WSSINGLE-OP HIGHCasual S&P effort with limited operating time. Nice to make one AF QSO from AZ. Quite dismayed by the number of lousy signals with excessive phase noise, clicks, spurs, etc.
N8IISINGLE-OP LOWCondx were down to the NW (nothing beyond MN) and EU during the evening up to 0140Z first night, 2nd night noticeably better. I tried late Satuday around 04Z, not much from EU, but added MB,SK,MT,OR,NV,NE, and CA to mult total. Activity seemed down first
N9EDLSINGLE-OP LOWPut your comments here. Use multiple lines if needed.
N9SESINGLE-OP QRPElecraft K4D running 5,000 milliwatts. Ant: Inverted-L, 30 ft. vertical, 100 ft. horizontal. Decided to give it a try at the last minute on Friday. Got started a little before 23Z and was disappointed right away with the temporary antenna here at the new
N9TFASSISTED LOWThe wire end of my gutter and wire 160 diploe came down in a wind storm a couple weeks ago, so I only had the 6BTV to play with in this contest. Ran the K3S into my old trusty MFJ-949E manual tuner with 100 watts to make some Qs. Felt the late 90's all ov
NC6KASSISTED HIGHOnly was able to operate Saturday night here due to family commitments but conditions were excellent. No real DX - just a few Caribbean stations. I had a whopping ONE 10-point QSO. That's why this contest from the West Coast is a "just for fun" affair. It
ND0CSINGLE-OP QRP5 watts to a cloud-warmer antenna (80 meter inverted vee at 38 ft)
NI0KSINGLE-OP HIGHNot very many stations to work heard here. Sunday o-dark-thirty yielded a lot of dupes tuning the band. Saturday night was pretty good but my post-op back surgery wouldn't let me stay in the chair. I've been thinking about the loss from nearby tr

NO8CASSISTED HIGHThanks to all...this is a fun contest!
