Call | Category | Comments | Z35M | SO QRP ALL | Enjoyed S&P at QRP level using 5 W and G5RV | Z38N | MM | We dedicated our Z38N 2012 CQWW CW operation to HA1RS "Paff" (Laszlo Sipos) who died in the age of 45 just a week before the contest. He supposed to be a member of the team like in 2006 when he was the real "ENGINE" of the expedition. We lost a good friend. RIP "Paff" | Z6/S56A | SA LP ALL | First 26 QSO made from Z61AA in Gnjilane, the rest from Gracanica | ZC4LI | SO HP 15M | THANKS TO ALL CONCERNED IN RUNNING THE CONTEST | ZD8W | SO HP ALL | Good fun. See you next year | ZL2J | MSH | CONDITIONS GOOD FIRST DAY, BUT DETERIORATED ON THE SECOND QSO COUNT DOWN ON LAST YEAR BUT STILL GOOD FUN. ONLY TWO OF US OPERATING IN TURN, WE USE ONLY ONE TRANSMITTER | ZM4T | MM | The ZM4T team set out to achieve a record score for ZL. We knew it was possible. To win a team must have a perfect combination of quality operators, equipment and antennas. It happened for us this year. Everything went right for a change. We didn't blow up any amplifiers or radios. Our computer networking worked perfectly and Murphy visited somewhere else this year. Even though we were apprehensive about the new rules we set the record. Oh what a feeling! Can you please assign 20% of the points for one of our team members ZL3IO to German club BCC (ZL3IO) | ZS2NF | SO LP ALL | Much better this year, conditions and my shack as well. Rig was an ICOM 736 with 100 watts and antennas as below. 80m an inverted V at 20m AGL 40m a 20m Lazy H with a tuner. Upper dipole at 18m, lower at 8m 20m a full size Lazy H as above 15m a 20m Lazy H as above 10m a 5 el OWA yagi at 21m AGL fixed on Europe (bird's nest in rotator chain drive!) Also used 20m Lazy H occasionally Learnt a lot! Next year should be better with more time available. This year had visitors and a Christmas carol event to attend! | ZS6A | SA HP 10M | Good conditions on 10m | ZW5B | SO HP 15M | Thanks to Oms, PY5EG to let me use his excellent station.
