| WA1FCN | SA LOW 40M | Well I thought I would give this category a try as it has been several years sice I last chose it. Well after 3 hours I said forget it. I don't have the stamina for this. Well call it fate, good luck or whatever. 2 PM local time Saturday Bable TV, home phone and yes Internet all stoped. Service was restored 11:00 Am Monday morning. !! I would of been in a assisted category with NO assistance. I'll bet I do not turn off the lights early in next months CW version of this event ! |

| WA2AEY | SO LOW ALL | Coditions for the contest were EPIC the whole weekend! I was extremely happy to get JT0, HZ1 and 3B9, among several others. Dx was S9+ most of the contest. When it opened to South America ,they were S9+10,20 and 30 over for HOURS! The last hour it opened to Japan and Asiatic Russia.I think I did pretty well for 100 watts and a dipole.No assist for me, I did it the old school way and found everything on my own.Im hooked on DX contesting now! |
| WA2CNV | SO LOW ALL | It was a great contest!! Bands were all wide open, especially 10M!! |
| WA3KCP | SO HIGH ALL | Great fun! Really geeked out on the N3FJP phone macros, such that many QSOs were completed with 2 function keys (mapped to IC7300 TX SSB memories) glad to have the microphone at the ready! Takeaways: do it again! purchase legit headset! time to replace the 50+ yr old vertical antenna yet? |
| WA4CB | SO LOW ALL | First license 01-2023 after the contest I realized that I went by my call sign zone 5 for my cq zone. I'm actually in cq zone 4. I gave out 5 during my contacts and setup my log with zone 5. I hope this doesn't negatively impact my score |
| WA5LFD | SO HIGH ALL | G5RV at 35 feet with 200w. Bands were all pretty good with exception on 40m which was pretty quiet toward EU. 10m was open worldwide, working EU/SA/JA at the same hour |
| WA5PJA | SO HIGH ALL | First license 02-2024 |
| WA5WFE | SA LOW 10M | Great conditions. Lots of good operators and good DX |
| WA6KHK | SA HIGH ALL | Took down my 80 foot tower last week end and getting ready to move to a new QTH only 5 miles away |
| WA6URY | SO HIGH ALL | Operated remote from Tokyo, Japan |
| WA7AA | SA HIGH 10M | Awsome propagation on all higher bands. I don't remember the last time 15 m was open to all continents at the same time like it was on Saturday evening for a while. It was also nice to see all bands packed with stations so much it was difficult to find a calling frequency - a refreshing change from all that FT8 garbage lately. The highlight of the contest must have been when two yokels decided to heckle me on 28.650 while I was calling CQ contest, saying how they 'don't lahk the kon-taste up here'. I barely resisted the urge to ask them if they may be late for a Klan meeting, but only because I had to answer the JA/YB pile-up |
| WA7BNM | SO LOW 15M | Radio-to-log software not working during early QSOs, so default 21200 frequency specified in log |
| WA8KAN | SA HIGH ALL | Blessed with church attendance and family birthday dinner on Sunday. WA8KAN |
| WB0LQC | SO LOW 10M | Tremendous fun for one old man!! Turning the dial to above 29.2 is great!! |
