| K6OK | SA HIGH ALL | I thumbed my nose at the A-index over 20 and had fun anyway. Contesting under poor conditions beats no contesting |
| K6QCB | SO LOW 20M | A fun contest |
| K6YK | SO HIGH ALL | POOR CONDITIONS THEN HAD TO WORK SATURDAY NIGHT. SLEPT HALF THE DAY SUNDAY, WOKE UP AND THE POWER WAS OFF UNTIL 15 MINUTES AFTER THE CONTEST WAS OVER! |
| K7ABV | SO HIGH ALL | bands poor so bailed out, had trip on sunday so couldn't stay the weekend |
| K7ACZ | SO LOW 20M | RIG ANT I TRIED STARTING ON 40 MTRS FRIDAY NIGHT BUT COND WERE TOO POOR. SO I DECIDED TO DO 20 MTR SINGLE BAND. I INCLUDED MY 40 MTR QSO's SO PEOPLE I WORKED WILL NOT RECEIVE A NIL FOR THEIR CONTACT. COND OVERALL SEEMED POOR. EURO STATIONS WERE NOT VERY STRONG AND MANY COULD NOT PICK UP MY CALL. COND WERE WORSE FOR ASIA/PACIFIC. NORMALLY LOUD JA AND KH2 STATIONS WERE JUST READABLE. THE ONE ONLY DU AND BY I HEARD WAS RIGHT AT THE NOISE |
| K7BVT | SA HIGH ALL | I worked VP6R!!!! |
| K7EG | SA HIGH 20M | Conditions were poor. A index=29. QRM & Splatter. Pulled the plug. Jim K7EG |

| K7STO | SO HIGH 160M | 1st time working a 160m contest |
| K7VIT | SA HIGH ALL | With the K-Index at 4 or higher for 33 hours out of 72 hours prior to the end of the contest, band conditions seemed pretty tough to me. My poorest performance in this test in years. Thanks to all who answered my calls. 73, Jerry |
| K7XC | SA HIGH 80M | Now that I am retired, I am often up very late & sleep in till noon. As such I decided to enter as Single Band 80M High Power Assisted to try and work some new ones on the band. Used a FLEX3000 driving a AL80B to 800W output feeding an Inverted Vee at 38ft. Heard far more stations than I could work so Maybe need to find a full 1500W out amplifier in the future. See you all next month in my Favorite... CQ WWDX CW! KB! |
| K7ZS | MULTI-TWO | Ugh! PNW not the place to be this weekend |
| K8LF | SA HIGH ALL | Only worked a few hours. I need to retire so I can work more contests |
| K8MR | SO HIGH ALL | When AGE SFI, Interest isn't quite all there |
| K8OZ | SO HIGH 160M | I've been hamming since 1958 and never heard condx like these. Looking forward to the next cycle...! 73, K8OZ Checklog only |
| K8YE | SA HIGH ALL | Enjoyed the time I spent in the contest! Thanks! |
| K9GX | MULTI-ONE | I invited Dustin, KM4UNY, to operate as a 'Rookie' for his first contesting/DXing experience. During his approximately two hours 'BIC' he learned the meaning of QRM. Invited John, W9WR, who has been experiencing health challenges to sit in and he joined me for an hour or so Sunday afternoon. Amp blew a tube (I think) Saturday, operated from Saturday night on at 100 watts. Propagatoin was excellent for the bottom of the solar cycle. Operated a combined total of just under 12 hours. Not really a 'Multi-Op' in the true sense but Elmered a 'rookie' and enjoyed the company of a dear friend. 73, K9GX |
| K9GY | SA LOW ALL | Very rough propagation for a vertical and 100 w from central USA! |

| KA2ENE | SO LOW ALL | Icom IC-7300 Wire antennas 100 Watts |
| KA6BIM | SA HIGH ALL | Conditions were brutal here in the Pacific Northwest. Lots of noise short openings. 10 & 15 meter propagation from South America didn't extend this far North. Worked too many hours with only single digits in the log. Nice to hear several African stations on! Tnx for qso's Dave ka6bim |
