| K0DDD | MULTI-ONE HIGH | The low band openings were weak but still fun |
| K0GEO | MULTI-ONE HIGH | Based upon solar behavior over the past summer and fall, we expected WW SSB 2016 to be different from the previous several respective contests. However even our most imaginative forecasts did not predict the observed propagation. Our typical daylight 10-15-20m and nighttime 40m runs to EU and JA were comparatively to very limited (caused by more southerly auroral zones?), vs a trans-equatorial pipeline to a seemingly endless stream of great Central and South American operators who were thankfully out in full force. In short 2016 will go down in the books for us as a show that upended years of our allegedly conventional wisdom, which provided many hours of great education and entertainment. See you in 2017, many thanks and 73! |
| K1AUS/7 | SO LOW ALL | Licensed November of 2014. 40 meters very noisy at my QTH and signals where weak on all bands but had a lot of fun. Looking forward to next year. Email certificate ok if I am eligible to receive one |
| K1MC | SO LOW ALL | It was nice to hear 10m open around noon time on Sunday. New England had a pipeline to the Canary Is. that allowed me to work four EA8 stations in a half hour |
| K1MTD | SO LOW ALL | This year featured QSB and propagation challenges, but I still had a lot of fun! |
| K1OL | SO LOW 20M | Kenwood TS590SG Ant: G5RV |
| K1VR | SA HIGH ALL | lot of fun for a teenager like me! |
| K2MV | SO LOW ALL | Date of first license 07-Jul-2015 |
| K2TER | SA HIGH ALL | Having all indoor antennas was more of a disadvantage. Still fun! |
| K3CCR | SO HIGH ALL | K3CCR is the club station at the Collington continuing-care retirement community at FM 18OW in MD, just east of DC. For the CQ WW SSB only I (N3UM) was available. I went with the Classic overlay as I did in 2015 and put in 20.2 hr. Activity was good but 10 and 15 m. propagation was much worse than last year with SFI down to 76 vs 106. Last year I got long runs of EUs on 20 thru 10 m but this year I never heard an EU on 10 and got only 54 EUs in one 54-min. run on 15, and 91 EUs in a 74-min. run on 20. The result and 10 this year, not nearly offset by 189 more points and 7 more mults on 20. Only excitement on 15 m. was CE0, Easter Island, and on 10 m. ZD8, Ascension Island. Low-band numbers were down slightly this year, maybe because the k index was up. Weak signals on 40 and 80, could not run. I never heard any Mid East stations on any band except for one TA QSO on 20 m |
| K3EST/6 | SA HIGH 40M | AT THE BEGINNING OF THE TEST I MADE 2 MISTAKES WITH VFO THEY ARE NOTED AS X-QSO |
| K3JRZ | SA LOW ALL | 2015 |
| K3NDM | SA LOW ALL | Wire Antennas do work. Too bd I had equipment failures |
| K3ORC | SA LOW ALL | Like digging through rocks to make a contact |
| K3SOM | SA HIGH ALL | Propagation not ideal but new antenna worked well |
| K3TW/4 | SA QRP 80M | It's always a challenge for QRP, but always fun! |
| K3URT | SO LOW ALL | NOT VERY GOOD CONDITIONS |
| K3WJV | SA HIGH ALL | Thank the Lord that phone is over for a while. C'mon CW! |
| K3YEO/4 | SO LOW 20M | Worldwide curtesy was outstanding. 73 to all |
| K3ZJ/8 | SO HIGH 20M | The 20 meter reflector fell off the C31XR tribander the day before the contest. But the remaining director & driven element seemed to be useable as a 2-element beam with the short 13.6 foot (4.14 meter) spacing. Given the predicted poor propagation, I decided on 20 meter SOSB notwithstanding the impaired antenna. Most QSOs were S&P because I never was able to run despite multiple tries. All weekend I had trouble even working EU. But there were a couple of notable hours during which I felt that the antenna worked miracles. Early Sunday morning, during an hour or two of Pacific propagation, I worked multiple VK/ZL as well as rarer VP6AH, A31MM, T32AZ, VK6NZ for zone 29, and FR4NT long path for zone 39. Then, near the end of the contest, UP2L in zone 17 broke through VERY late at 2230 and an hour later B7K in zone 24 answered my first call through a deep pileup. The final score is less than half the score I made two decades ago when I last operated 20 meters single band in this contest. But it always is a pleasure to get on the air and greet friends and acquaintances old and new, no matter the score |
