K8LFSA HIGH ALLWas out of town the whole weekend just got back on Sunday afternoon and put in 3 hours of S&P. The QRM was tough. I set the ICOM IC-7610 filters to 1.7 Khz and a sft of -225 which helped quite a bit. Would be interested in what others set for filters. Wanted to work my last zone 34 but no luck. Heard some JAs but could not work them. 40 was good on Sunday evening but QRM was really bad. CW and RTTY are much for fun for me as contest modes

KB0VSA HIGH ALLWHAT FUN!!! It's been a LONG TIME since I saw these kinds of wide-open conditions (3 & 4 solar cycles ago), and now I remember what makes contesting so much fun. 35 zones (the last two in the final 20 minutes!), and I'm still looking for zones 18,19,22,23, and 34 in my sleep! Can't wait to see what the solar PEAK looks like if this is just the beginning

KC2OSRSA HIGH ALLband conditions were poor. lots of QRM. A number of stations on the same frequency on the same frequency. A number of station s could or would not not get my call correctly. I did not log a couple QSO's as I could not get there callsigns. The stations who I heard being successful spoke slowly and distinctly. Due to some abuse==ive language ,this is probably my last CQ contest!

KE0ORMULTI-ONE LOWTen and Fifteen Meters were open and provided great opportunities for this 100 watt station to log 101 countries. The operators were Bill, AE0EE and Dan, KE0OR.
