| W6DVS | SO LOW ALL | Great conditions, great competitors, great fun! Thanks to all fellow operators |
| W6JBR | SO HIGH ALL | Fantastic Conditions! 10 and 15 wide open all day. This cycle is looking really good! Stations were loud, clean and clear, no QSB, great openings.

| W6MSN | SO LOW ALL | First license 04-2020 First licensed April 14, 2020 |
| W6SC | SA HIGH ALL | Sure was fun having 10 meters back in action! |
| W6US | SO LOW ALL | Good propagation!!! 10Meters looked like a busy 20M on the panagraph... A lot of operators violated the ID every 3 calls rule... This needs some heavy duty enforcement. Still a bunch of 10 KHz wide signals |
| W7BKS | SO LOW ALL | First license 02-2020 February 25, 2020 |
| W7CXX | SA HIGH ALL | Excellent conditions with 10 meters opening to all regions of the world. Tower system is still undergoing repairs. So I installed temporary antennas for this event. KIO 6 band HEX beam on 20 ft. mast fixed toward EU and placed next to a 1,200 ft. cliff edge. Butternut HFV-2 vertical had 40 and 80 covered. Station: K-3 Twins and KPA-500. It was a nail biting finish, as propagation shifted during the last few hours allowing me to work ZD7(36) RU1(16) VR2(24), V85(28), TF3(40) and DU3(27) for country and zone multipliers. Looking forward to CQWW CW weekend. 73 Jack, WA7LNW (W7CXX, Collins Aerospace Radio Group station located in southwestern Utah) |

| W9DCT | SA HIGH ALL | First license 04-2022 |
| W9KEY | SA HIGH ALL | Still a pretty new ham - Can't wait for 10 meters in another year or two! |
| W9KMZ | SO LOW ALL | First license 03-2022 |
| W9PHL | SO LOW ALL | First license 02-2022 |
| W9RE | SO HIGH ALL | Great contest despite poor conditions on 160 and 80 |
| W9YK | SA HIGH ALL | Great to be heard around the world using wires! |
| WA1FCN | SA LOW 15M | This was my refresher course on why I stick to CW |
| WA2CNV | SO LOW ALL | Best Band Conditions in years!! Great fun!! |
| WA2JQZ | SO LOW ALL | This year I worked more countries on the 10 meter band than any other band. With my limited power and antenna conditions, 10 meters was easier than to try to compete with pileups on 20 meters. It's nice to have the sunspot cycle giving you the wind in your sails again |
| WA2LMC | SA LOW 10M | Ten meters was amazing this year |
| WA2WZT | SO LOW 20M | Used my Xeigu G90 and G5RV dipole |
| WA5ZKO | SO LOW ALL | great openings on 10m. good to see the bands coming back so us little guys running 100watts and dipoles can grab some rare dx |
| WA6KHK | SA HIGH ALL | Rough going with only a vertical at new QTH. That will change soon! |
| WA6URY | SO HIGH ALL | Operated remote from Tokyo, Japan |
| WA7G | SA HIGH ALL | Let me know if this works, if not I will try and send it again |
| WA7NB | SO LOW ALL | 28 MHz was the best I've seen in many years |
| WA7YXY | SA LOW ALL | My thanks to all the contest organizers and the participants! I had a great weekend |
| WA8Y | SA HIGH ALL | I started mid-morning on Saturday. I did S&P and never ran out of stations for long. I probably stayed on a band or two, longer that I should have. The propagation on ten and fifteen was a real treat! It looked like things were never going to opening to the Pacific rim on those bands but they both did! Its probably been ten years since I worked into the Pacific on ten meters! 20m and lower was less impressive. I probably could have worked a few more stations on 80m but I shut down and went to bed about 1:30am. I got 4 hours of sleep and them worked 80 and 40m until it faded out. I went back to bed for an hour and a half. When I got back in the chair, the ten and fifteen were very good! I took a couple 20-30 minutes breaks that counted against my ON Time |
| WB0POH | SO LOW 10M | Sadly only on air for 45 minutes - still had a GREAT time |
| WB0TEV | SA HIGH ALL | Did nothing but work mults. Propagation was best its been in years. Worked 121 DXCC, almost made DXCC on 15m alone (97). Nice to have 10m back |
| WB3GBL | SO QRP 10M | QRP station on East Coast of Virginia, Xiegu G90 at 5 watts |
| WB3JAC | SO LOW ALL | First license 05-2020 licensed in May 2020 |
| WB6JJJ | SA HIGH ALL | Thanks for a fun contest... I just wish the sun was better for the low bands. That A of 27 was a sink hole. 10 and 15 Meters were great both days with stations all the way up to 28.7 MHz. 73, Bill |
| WB7EUJ | SO LOW ALL | Unfortunately, my radio faild to work on 20m at the beginning of the contest but the ham spirit in me of never giving up I struggled through and made more contacts than anyone else in the club |
| WC4E | SO LOW ALL | Hurricane IAN blew down all low band antennas |
| WC7S | SO QRP ALL | Conditions were great!! Good time had, looking forward to the next one too. See you then!! Dale - WC7S |
| WD4KTF | SO LOW ALL | Had to reinstall the Com4 port a the beginning of the contest because I had an older file for that port and the radio kept saying Com 4 needed to be reset |
| WD6T | SA HIGH ALL | Busy this weekend with premiere of my musical composition for dance (https://nancykarp.org/event/nancy-karp-dancers-40th-anniversary-season/). But managed a few hours in late morning/early afternoon, then later evening on Sat. 10 and 15 best. 40 noisy and 80 terrible. Mostly Caribb., SA, and Asia. Just a few EUs. Condx improved later in the day on Sat. Sunday morning seemed much worse than Sat. morning. As usual, due to terrain, I was able to bust pileups to the W and SW, but anything to the E or NE was only workable if I was the only guy on freq. and only if condx favored me. 100% S&P |
| WE2DX | SA HIGH ALL | I don't play to win, just play to play. I hope my contacts here help confirm those of others who really put in an effort |
| WE4BE | SO LOW ALL | First license 09-2020 Rookie |
| WE6EZ | SO HIGH 10M | Conditions on 10M were like in good old times! |
| WE6Z | SA HIGH ALL | Pretty good conditions, although a very high noise level |
