K6NRSO HIGH 10M10 meters was fantastic, so I made this a single band 10 meter entry. On Sunday there were signals from 28.300 to 29.000 and higher. Probably on Saturday too but I did not check. Thanks for the QSOs. Station: K4, KPA500, 450 watts to 4 element 10 meter yagi at 40 feet, at 7000 ft elevation

K8LFSA LOW ALLI had to work the contest at 100 watts since the amplifier was in for service. Some of the signals I have heard on 10M SSB during the contest are some of the loudest I have ever heard. Some 30 over S9. JAs at 20 DB over S9 into the east coast of the US. I contacted Western Saraha S0S how do you like that call? S zero S I got him on first call I was using 100 watts. Pile ups were bad even late on Sunday. I am not used to having to call and call and call. Luckly for mostly S&P it was target rich for DX stations
K8ROXSA HIGH ALLToo much time wasted waiting on the stations to give their callsigns

K9JF/7SO LOW ALLIndoor Dipoles @ 15' cost me 1000's of Contacts!
K9JKSO QRP 10MForget about '100 Watts and a Wire'...this was '5 Watts and a CB Whip'. Radio was an IC-705 running off of its batteries (which were changed a few times) and the CB Whip was in a magmount base on the roof of my vehicle so I was 'BIDS' - Butt In Driver's Seat for all operating

KC2QVDSO LOW ALLI had a really fun time this year! I used my new home brew EFHW and did better than last year. 10m was wide open and I used it to my advantage. Rather than sitting around trying to break pile ups for multipliers, I focused on rapidly getting contacts and getting my QSO/hr above 20. It's fun doing Search and Pounce, but one of these days I'd love to call CQ. Next year I will try a different antenna setup (hopefully a skyloop) to get better propagation. The Yaesu 767GX is still going strong in it's old age
KC3VPBSA LOW ALLOperator age 22 BORN 2003 - This was an incredibly fun contest. Conditions held up and 10m was going! 15M was also very active and made some incredible contacts. I just had 100W and a wire but worked all around the world during this contest. Thank you to everyone that worked me. I had a ton of fun and I'm sure everyone else did too! Many great operators as well I interacted with
