| W0PR | SO HP ALL | One of my favorite contests, I just wish it was a little later in the year. September contests are problematic because the weather is still so nice and there are lots of other stuff going on before fall. The bands were pretty great, and lots and lots of European and Asian stations on |
| W0SD | SA HP ALL | Had a great time in my first Full time attempt |
| W0YJT | SO LP ALL | started out poor but got much better |

| W4CQE | SO HP ALL | Bands were really good for a change, enjoyed the contest |
| W4RN | SA LP ALL | Thanks for a great contest wid gud condx. At my advanced age I cannot supply BIC hours to make much of a difference in our PVRC club score, but I gave it a go anyway |
| W4VIC | SA HP ALL | Thanks for the Qs. 73, Vic W4VIC |
| W5AP | SO HP ALL | 10 was great on Saturday 24 hours op time is max for me |
| W6JBR | SO LP ALL | Since my shack is under renovation, I used my backup daily driver - my classic Kenwood TS-940SAT - purchased used in 1995 from the original owner. It was stored for nearly a decade before I got the chance to finish a refurb, and update the rig, about 3 years ago. it is now part of my backup shack. I was really thrilled by the massive openings to EU on 10 & 15 meters both mornings - and lots of JAs too. Signals were clean and clear with no QSB, and my barefoot signals to the 31 foot wire vertical were heard, with little need for repeats. I worked S&P exclusively, and DX exclusively. Thanks to all for the great QSOs. 73 de W6JBR Station: Kenwood TS-940SAT SignaLink USB Audio Interface 31 foot ground-mounted wire vertical fed by 9:1 unun.

| W7VC | SO LP ALL | I got on with the goal of making 20-30 QSOs... made 283 Qs over 14h... so, success? |
| W8RU | SO LP ALL | Got to dust of MMTTY and have some RTTY fun. Activity levels seemed very good, and propagation was excellent! Thanks for the QSOs and 73, Ron (W8RU) |
| W9IKE | SO LP ALL | First license 08-2023 |
| W9YK | SA HP ALL | Glad to be heard with wires and butt in the chair helps! |
| WA0ROI | SA HP ALL | One note that I incorrectly gave out Zone 5 for the first part of the time |
| WA2VAM | Checklog | I sent the wrong CQ Zone information - used 5 (my old QTH) instead of 4 for Tennessee. Please consider this as a check log. Kevin WA2VAM |
| WA3KCP | SA HP ALL | QSO#1 VK9DX 40M Sat morning hooked me! Focused on mults needed, not just sliding up the band. Sun morning score exceeded 2024 final with 13% fewer QSOs! Strategy + more BIC hours = final score 52% above 2024! RTTY is a great fun (but I still trust my CW ears over machine-decoded results) |
| WB4CW | SA HP ALL | Zone and State exchange was a bit weird using N12MM+ |
| WB4UBK | SA HP ALL | Computer problems. 3 contacts with N1MM, the remainder with N3FJP logging (using FLDigi) |
| WB5SKM | SA HP ALL | First license 04-22-2023. Licensed 4/22/2023 |
| WB6JJJ | SA HP ALL | Thanks for another fun RTTY contest. I just wish that I had more time to play radio. Too much time away with guests, family and farm chores. It was nice to hear Europe even late into the evening. Hopefully, more time next year. 73, Bill |
| WE6Z | SA LP ALL | Only had a small amount of time |
| WJ1U | SA LP ALL | Made my first RTTY contact earlier this week trying to get set up, so I had no real idea what I was doing. My only real goal was to try out a new mode. It was a bit of a struggle, but it grew on me a bit over the course of the weekend. I definitely improved as I went. Sorry for all the mis-clicked hotkeys, etc. Maybe next time I will put some more hours in! FTDX10, 125' Doublet @50ft |
| WN8Y | SA HP ALL | FUN FUN FUN !!! |
| WQ6X | SA QRP ALL | This was another WQ6X QRP operation running remote from ANZA this time. The band condx. were a AMAZingly AWEsome - my only regret was no access to the radio for the 1st 5-hours and then the off time on Saturday due to a CQP presentation for the Amateur Radio Club of Alameda (ARCA). Having access to Stacked Yagi's on 40 - 10 meters and an 80-meter 4-square vertical array made WQ6X's QRP signal sound like 200+ watts. My biggest beef were stations who called CQ EXACTLY on my oddly chosen run frequency (Ex: 28131.31 or 21162.62), so I know it was no accident. Wassup with RTTY operation EXACTLY on 14.100 QRM'ing the NCDXF beacon - that is pretty LAME (and LiDDiSH) if you ask me. SOAPBOX: A few internet dropouts made me disappear alluva sudden. So if I disappeared it wasn't personal - it was IP-based. Look for a write-up on this GiG at: http://WQ6X.Blogspot.com |

| XE2B | SA LP 15M | Great Conditions! Enjoyed the test after a long absence |
| XE2BLR | SO LP ALL | First license 12-2025. This is my very first contest since getting my first ham license. It was a very enjoyable experience and very interesting to see how sounds can be interpreted as text. It was also nice to see or hear very much activity in many bands, which tells me that Ham Radio and RTTY is pretty much current nowadays |
