M0UNISO LP 40MGreat Contest, everything worked well Thanks to all competing and organising
M0VBYSA HP ALLGreat fun - shame I couldn't do more
M2JSA HP ALLK3, KPA500 @200w, 22m long Doublet @ 10m, TB31 Dipole @12m Hard work on 40m but good on 20/15. Seems the rush for minimum information exchanged has reached RTTY - several omitting RST and even not acknowledging they have your info OK, just straight to CQ - not helpful when they don't even include your call in the exchange! Then others refuse 'worked B4' - their loss I guess if I don't think we worked! Good fun weekend
M6WSA LP 15MConditions are starting to improve!
M7VSO QRP 10MHard work. Don't think I'll do this section again! K3 + MicroHamII + P3
MM9ISA HP ALLGood conditions and nice to see 10m
MW1MDHSO LP ALLFirst ever entry in CQWWRTTY...need to have another look at the setup, as I did struggle...If it's not up to spec, feel free to use it as a checklog!
MW9WSA LP 15MAlways love this contest however this year due to family commitments I was unable to make an all band entry. However had just as much fun running 15m single band in the hours I did have available to me. RTTY Rocks! 73 folks and thanks for the Q's Ian MW9W/GW0KRL
N2KISA HP ALLThis was my revisit to the contesting realm after an eight year sabbatical. Thanks goes to N2RC for prodding me enough to participate once again, and to all the contesters for providing the Q's. It was fun! This year we worked with the old 5000MP, but the antenna was a newly installed Navassa 5. It worked well
N2MASO LP ALLWasn't able to get on till Sunday morning. Looking forward to doing this again

N4MMRSO LP ALLTransmitter: old reliable Kenwood TS-820S Hybrid with no CAT control RigBlaster Advantage with Win 7 PC running N1MM Drake MN-4 Tuner One wire dipole for 40/15. Another wire dipole for 20m. I did harvest exactly one 10m QSO off the 20m wire. All weekend long I had a pipeline from Florida to the Adriatic, Italy, Slovenia, etc. Then at the very end of the contest the Pacific opened to me I got NZ, Samoa, Hawaii, Chile, Ecuador. 100 watts and a wire. Gosh I love this hobby! Hurrah for solar cycle 25!
N5RELSA HP ALLHad a blast. Worked several JA's on 40m. 15m was really hoppin'
N6HISO QRP ALLFive Watts to a 20 foot end fed wire. Very part-time effort, just seeing what I could work on the higher bands. Nice to see some 10 meters activity. No computer, used IC-705 Macros & decode. Thanks to all for your patience and the QSOs. GO ARIZONA OUTLAWS! -73- John N6HI
N6QEK/KL7SO HP ALLLots of fun! Some stations need to listen more instead of sending CQ all of the time
N7VSSO LP ALLThis is the first time I have been in a RTTY contest using N1MM+. It was a good experience. Competing obligations limited my air time. It was nice to see activity on 10 and 15 meters. Thank you for the contacts. Thank you for hosting an interesting contest. I hope to be back next time. 73, Steve N7VS
N8AJMSO LP ALLYouth 2007
N9TFSO LP ALLA fun filled 24 hours! Finally contesting again with a resonant vertical on 6 bands (6BTV). Goal was to better my best score set back in 2018, when I lived in IL with a beam and a bunch of wire antennas to choose from. Mission accomplished. All the bands seemed to have their highs and lows. Struggled to get any runs going, but was able to make good contacts by S&Ping up and down the bands to just about every station I heard, I worked. More antennas to be planted in the next couple of months. For a single multi band ground mounted vertical, with only 8 ground radials, I very happy with the way it performed. Thanks for sponsoring this WW RTTY contest. 73 Gene N9TF Clarksville TN
