| NI0K | SA HIGH ALL | Many consider this biggest contest of the year, and it is in the books now. At NI0K Murphy came and stayed. The rotor on tower 1is MIA so the 20/40 Yagi is stuck. 20-10 on tower 3 still works though and propagation on this contest was hitting on 16 cylinders on 20 & 15 with 8 cylyinders on 10 although 10 was hopping on Saturday. Just like most years I wasn't able to get a run going. Oh, and did I mention the shack PC went into the toilet on Friday afternoon? The second PC was OK though, only needing N1MM and some configuration to work. Speaking of toilets, do the contest rules have anything to accomodate runs? Not the on-air kind, the kind where your eyes get big and 'uh-oh' is involuntary. Good thing the loo is across the hall from the shack |
| NI1Q | SA LOW ALL | This was my first serious contest with the Flex8400. It is possible it may be the last. After a few hours, I switched back to my 7610 and doubled my throughput. I was only able to 18 hours - the contest is on the same day as the Mexico City Grand Prix, and my age is catching up with me. But even though my time was low I had a very good time. Being able to have N1MM+ play the voice macros directly in the 7610 was very efficient and had some very high-rate search and pounce sessions |
| NL7V | SO HIGH ALL | Good conditions. Had fun |
| NN4TT | SA HIGH ALL | Started the contest as an afterthought. Of course, Murphy ruled. No 40M antenna to start with then lost the TH7 due to a bad connector or balun at the antenna. 75M wasn't too bad but ran out of gas when EU sun came up. Back to 6 meters! 73 |
| NO9E | SO HIGH 20M | Tried remote operation while in KH6.Not too much luck as their evening was US night and EU morning |
| NP3V | SO QRP 10M | TNX . 73! |

| OE1OPW | SA QRP 15M | very good condx and good operators QRP operation with Beam Antenna |

| OE8KKS/P | SO LOW 10M | my 1st Activity on my new Call in my new 2nd home QTH! |
| OE8TTR | SA HIGH 10M | Hi all! ...10m propagation were very good in my opinion and so I was able to make many nice contacts out of our valley (all via S&P, 1kW, 3 elem. Yagi @ 14m AGL). My personal goal was/is (applies to all my contest activities!) to work 100+ DXCCs (if multiband operation with max. 150 Qs) if possible. This time I reached the goal after abt 200 Qs with single band operation - other Qs were just for fun and enough time with the family... The only downside is that with only 100W, I probably wouldn't have reached half of the DXCCs as this PWR would hardly have been heard in the PWR battle... 73 de Hel, OE8TTR |
| OG1F | SA HIGH 15M | Quite nice cndx. TU! |
| OG5O | SA HIGH ALL | Just giving points. No CQ |
| OG6N | SA HIGH ALL | A challenging operation as a lot of antennas were broken and the main tower not turning. I did not have time to fix the rotator of my multiplier tower either. Had some issues with my logging PC with virtual ports so I could not get my second radio connected. I mostly did chase DX and multipliers and threw in a few pile ups. Not the best propagation to USA and Asia so made too much QSOs into EU. I hope I will get some issues fixed before the CW leg |
| OG8M | SO HIGH 15M | Nice condx! Lady Aurora was absent, I didn't miss her at all :-) Thanks everyone for the qso! |

| OH4MVH | SO QRP 10M | Lots of stations QRV and tried to test how QRP power works in time of sun spot maximum. But worst thing was that no time to activate me enough. Many stations heard but difficult to work with QRP power |
