LZ7KSO QRP ALLRig Xeigu G90 ant.3band 3 el.14,21,28 mhz
LZ7VMSO LOW 20MICOM 720a 100W Ant Delta Loop / only
M0BPQSA HIGH ALLEnjoyable contest as always. My 80 and 160m antenna failed on the friday so I decided to have a go without it. Saturday high band conditions seemed better than Sundays but I was rather inconsistent with my operating times
M0CVOSO LOW ALLWow! 10m was really good this year, some overcrowding on 15m but all round a good year
M0EASSA HIGH 10MFLEX 8400 Antennas: ENDFED HW
M0WJESA HIGH 20MGreat to be back after missing SSB for a wedding. Conditions on 20m seemed worse than last year (when I was running only 100W to a vert!) but had good fun and worked lots of DX while fitting in some social engagements during breaks. _Relatively_ casual entry!
M1AQRSA LOW ALLFirst attempt at CW contesting so just a few QSOs to give some points and explore the techniques
M1BSA HIGH ALLfew hours S&P only.Spent more time watching the the battle between EF8R and CQ9A on live scores
M1DDDSA HIGH ALL2-3 hours Sunday night only - good activity 20/40m. 500W to an elevated Hustler 6BTV
M4MSA LOW ALLgreat fun
M4NSA HIGH ALLFLEX6400 to Doublet at 10M
M5LGMSO LOW ALLFirst license 01-2024 It is the first time I have taken part in a CW Contest. My first CW HF contact was 1st August 2025. I found it easier to call CQ and have stations reply to me, than for me to reply to stations calling. A lot of stations were too fast for me so in a lot of cases I hoped I got the callsign correct and guessed the gridsquare from their location
M6WSA LOW 15MFrustrated by propagation but still lots of fun!
M7MSO LOW 20M20m band dipole antenna 10m AGL
M7NMPSA LOW ALLOperator age 18 Disappointing contest. Had too high expectations, was hoping to get to DXCC via this test, but didn't even work one new country and I couldn't really operate much on Sunday which was a shame
M7TEISO LOW ALL10 W, ROOKIE - licenced 05/2025
M7VSA LOW 10MNot a serious entry!
M8JLZSA LOW ALLExcellent contest with good conditions
MD4KSA HIGH 15MNot sure conditions the best this year due to auroral distubances, especially for polar paths. But sure was an enjoyable contest
MI4ISA LOW 15MBand in good shape. Rand out of stations to work. Best ever 15m entry WOW!!
MM3ISA LOW ALLGood Luck Folks, See ya in the next Contest
N0IPSO LOW ALLOnly got to operate for a few hours but had a great time. Thanks, all!
N0NBSO LOW 10MGood conditions on 10m for the weekend. Took the opportunity to make a few contacts with the new to me Not1MM logging program for Linux
N0VIGCHECKLOGFirst license 04-2025
N1AMSO LOW ALL10 meters was ok from EMA both days
N1CLCSO HIGH 15MFirst attempt at this contest, mainly from a SOTA summit
N1MESO LOW 10MAll contacts made using an indoor dipole
N1NNSO HIGH ALLMy 21st CQ WORLD WIDE DX CW CONTEST
N1TJCSA LOW ALLOperator age 22
N2AWESO LOW ALLEnjoyed the contest. Bands were open and I made some fine DX contacts
N2BASA LOW ALLMy most modest antenna since childhood: An Alpha Delta 5 band dipole with center at 14' Works as you'd bet a dipole would except on 80 where it is more like a narrow band dummy load. When I went from sacked monobanders in the country to a tribander at 40' in the suburbs I found the secret to happiness was to run a KW and imagine I'm Low Power. Now I run 100 watts and pretend I'm QRP
N2BZDSA LOW ALLGood 10 m Prop to Central Africa
N2CODSO LOW ALLCW QSO's are way too fast. CW speeds of 30+ wpm is crazy! QRS to reduce re-fills & agn requests
N2DASA LOW ALLHad fun operating in between Holiday gatherings! Setup: TS-590SG to a center fed Zepp attic antenna. 73, Craig N2DA
N2EMSO LOW ALLGreat conditions on 15 and 10 meters!
N2GASA LOW ALLPOTA US-1055 Catalina State Park, AZ Elecraft K3S at 100 watts to Vertical on truck
N2JNZSO QRP 40Mlousy conditions on 40 meters , had a lot fewer contacts then last year ... used a Xiegu G106 and a ZeroFive 40 meter vertical
N2NISA HIGH ALLAmp blew due to failed solder joint that caused flash over and killed the QSK board. Anyone have spare QSK board for this. Tentec Centurion 422B. Good amp. Will fix. Did second half with 200 watts and had plenty of fun. Never quit
N2OOSA HIGH ALLDecided to search and pounce mostly on Friday night and Saturday. Then, ran CQ a lot on Sunday, especially on 10 meters, then 15 and 20. My primary focus was looking for new DXCC and Zones (multipliers). Had a ball this year!
N2TXMULTI-MULTI1/2 Frankford Radio Club (N2TX), 1/2 Yankee Clipper Contest Club (KD2RD)
N3KISO LOW ALLjust a great contest!! After the bad week of very high solar problems Saturday turned out to be a gem. The 10/15 meter bands reached to the other side of GODS green earth. Absolutely terrific. Just finished work on my upgraded 10 meter loop antenna which did a real nice job. Overall a great Friday and Saturday workin the world. Thanks to all the brass pounders for the many Q's. 73's n GOD bless
N3RSSA HIGH ALLAm I getting too old for this as my wife says?
N4CWMULTI-ONE HIGHGreat conditions and nothing at the station failed, including the two old guys that operated in turns! It was fun. Thanks to all the fine ops out there who know Morse Code!! And a BIG 'Thank You' ro rhe DXpeditions...it was like CQWW in days of old! 73
