K3CWFSO LOW ALLGreat Test, lotsa fun!
K3FSSO LOW 10M10 METERS WAS IN NICE SHAPE. GOOD TO SEE THE ACTIVITY ON 10
K3NKSA HIGH 10M10m was a blast!
K3TCSO HIGH ALLRepaired 160m 97-ft retractable vertical just before contest, but 160m was a no show!
K3TW/4SO QRP 160MBand conditions on 160m were not favorable for QRP.
K3XC/4SO HIGH ALLThe contest was completely dictated by the propagation on 10 meters but it was great to hear the other bands open too. The low bands were a struggle and I had a very hard time working the "easy" ones on 80 meters. One-hundred and sixty meters was even harder, but I cannot complain too much considering that twenty meters opened to Europe around 5AM local and 15 meters closed to East/Southeast Asia at 10PM. Ten meters provided by far the best bang and the only regret that I have is that I did not run enough. The rates were great when I did run and I hit over 160 QSO's/hour for over an hour. What a blast! Overall it is absolutely awesome to finally have the bands back
K4CIASO QRP 10M5 WATTS OUTPUT. USED MANUAL LOGGING ON DAY 2, 30TH. FREQUENCIES REPEAT, BUT TIMES CORRECT

K5LADSO HIGH ALLWow!!! Welcome back 10 Meters...... you served us well
K5MVSA HIGH ALLAll the bands in great shape. Lots of fun this year!
K5RXSO HIGH 160MNo continental Europe heard the first night. Second night Europe did come through although with marginal signals for the most part. But, never heard a Scandinavian and heard from the UK only GM2T very briefly. Many Caribbean and Central American expeditions not heard - guess they were too busy on the higher bands. So, I operated a lot fewer hours than in the past
K5ZD/1SO HIGH ALLFun to have all bands open! Had 3 hours over 200 QSOs!
K6JATSO HIGH 10MWhat fun! Great conditions on 10M
K6MLFSO LOW ALLTHANK YOU all! Putting on such a huge annual contest is hard work--complicated, non-trivial, and (I'll bet) not always fun. But it gives so many of us a great deal of pleasure and satisfaction, and it is a tangible way to demonstrate how interconnected this little planet of ours is, eh? So please accept this novice little-pistol operator's great appreciation for all of your efforts
K6RM/4SO LOW ALLMy first operation from new home in NC. 35 watts to homebrew Buddipole in 2nd-story bedroom just to check out this QTH. Fun after being QRT since Field day!
