M0ZJQSO QRP 40MI had a second radio and I have submitted all contacts made BUT am only entering my QRP contacts. I ONLY used a 3W homebuilt single band rig for 40m contacts. Would like a certificate if possible saying it performed quite well!

M6SSVSO QRP ALLMy first attempt at a transmitting contest. My target was new countries and maybe the Americas. 5W is a big ask to cross the pond on ssb, so I was chuffed to get a Zone 4. Come the spring CQ-WPX, with a better aerial and maybe /P, the world will be my oyster, well the world will be limpet at least. Rig is a KX3 with an end fed 23m long wire at 7m height. QSLs will be very much appreciated -) Tnx to the many stns who worked hard to read my call. Tnx to Wythall ARC for helping me get my foundation license this Spring. Tnx to everyone who made me a very happy bunny this weekend,

N3CMIChecklogI wasn't going to bother with the contest, but thought why not, and spent some time Sunday working it just for fun. Well, those few hours changed my shack. I took the KWM-380 off the operating table and put it over on the "vintage" side of the shack. I put TS-590SG on the table instead, and I'm still busy making other changes to the "modern" side of the shack. I might actually do this for score next time. I've never been much of a contester, but that may have changed!
N3RSSA HIGH ALLNot as much fun as I had hoped for
