IK0VWHSO LOW ALLOperating from my holiday shack in BorgoVelino (RI) Using RTX Kenwood TS140s legacy of my dear SK Friend IZ0UPS (Massimo)
IK1HZZSO LOW 20MI only operated in the 20 m band. Very lively contest even if the propagation was not very favorable (SFI 128 but index A=28 and K=3). Generally short propagation and only intermittently for USA, Far East and Pacific. However, I had fun with the 100w of the old but trusty ICOM IC765 and the full size and home made dipole. All in all, a satisfactory score. Congratulations on the contest. I hope to see you next year.'73 de IK1HZZ
IK1TTDSA HIGH ALLExcellent band conditions. Unfortunately my Yagi could not move from the North position, and could works just on 20meters, all the rest done with a Vertical ... so my score is not competitive but lot of fun ! Next year I will have better setup. See you next time !

IO5KSA QRP 40MFirst time 40M QRP. Tough but nice. Thanks to all the Operators that worked my Call, using their best skills, patience and good will to copy my signal. See you soon and 73 de IO5K (IK5TBK)
IO6AMULTI-ONEOur first semi-serious experience in multi-operator mode. The station consisted of two K3 with their respective amplifiers and two sets of antennas: for the ?run? we used a four-band yagi for 10 (4 elements), 15 (3 elements), 20 (3 elements), and 40 (2 elements), and a rotating dipole mounted on a 15-meter tower. For the 'multipliers', we used a V yagi dipole for 10-15-20-40 and an inverted L vertical for 80 and 160. Aware that we were going to fight a battle with a Swiss army knife compared to the big guns present in the global territory, I must say we had quite a bit of fun. For the next WW (World Wide) contest, a second 18-meter tower with a 17-element four-quad yagi should be ready
IO7ASO LOW 15MVery good contest
IO9RMULTI-TWOGreat fun as always. Thank you all
IQ0AAISO LOW 10M1� contest per il call del museo della radio mdxc Ittiri
IR2QSO HIGH ALLFirst I'd like to thank everyone for calling in. This has been another fantastic radio weekend, with a LOT of preparation behind. I am happy everything in the shack and antennas worked flawlessly. Propagation has been up and down. Looking at the days and weeks before the contest I hoped better, but nothing to complain at the end, 10&15m stayed opened a long time after the sunset:) Openings on 10m were very spotty, particular with USA until nearly the sunset, stations arrived in clusters, some minutes with strong and increasing signals falling in few minutes into the noise floor and then increasing again... and so on for hours, signals became strong and stable after the sunset. Not much from USA west coast and what arrived had poor signals with some exceptions as always :) Nice openings on 20m LP with pacific areas and caribbean before my sunrise both days. Nice to see a lot of JA, YB, BY and South America stations calling in. Life on low bands has been very hard. Frustration in SSB crowded contests is the rule rather than a bad surprise. In these conditions I missed CW a lot. CU in the next one. 73s Luca IK2PFL
IR9KMULTI-ONE LOWFor the IR9K crew, first contest in the new location. Setup still in progress... New towers for our antennas and new location for our team. 73
