| N7BV | SA HP 20M | Thanks for all the contacts. 73, Chuck |
| N7MSI | SO LP ALL | This was my first RTTY contest ever. Been a ham for over 30 years but never used RTTY for contesting. I'm so glad I gave it a try, it was low pressure and very rewarding. I look forward to my next chance to do a RTTY contest, very enjoyable |
| N7RCS | SO QRP ALL | My best personal effort to-date, but weak propagation condx in general on 40, 20 & 15. Lots of QSB. 10m not active for my SFL location |
| N8BJQ | SO HP 20M | Primary amp let out a bunch of smoke earlier in the week. Will be an expensive fix I expect. With some not so fancy cabling, I was able to connect the Acom 1000 that I use on 6M. Decided that 20M was where I would stay. It was fun chasing W0YK. I passed him a couple of times but think he got me by 1K at the end. Pretty good signals from EU. Not many AS stations worked here (maybe a dozen or so). I lasted longer than I thought I would |
| N8VWY | SO LP ALL | IC-7100, END WIRE, HOMEBREW TERMINAL AND NEW HOMEBREW MODEM |
| N9OK | SA HP ALL | Pretty poor band conditions, but ended up with the most QSOs ever in a contest. Had a lot of fun due to that |
| N9TF | SA LP ALL | Well, I was hoping for some better conditions for some of my available operating time slots. Friday night wasn't steller, but not bad either. I was feeling pretty good about things when I pulled the plug Saturday morning around 1:15am. I wanted to be fresh for all the EU DX on 20 that, well, never really materialized. I would not have been so bummed out if I was able to be active the following morning for the EU that did show up after the solar storm had somewhat settled down. I was gone from 1500UTC to 1900UTC attending my older sons BB game. I did have a chance to work some DX on 20m for about 45 minutes Sunday morning, and conditions had improved 10 fold from 24 hours prior. I know I left lots of 3 pointers on the table. I had planned to be un-assisted. With 2 1/2 hours left in the contest I broke down and asked contest buddy KE0L via text, where he had just worked a 5Z4! Thanks to KE0L for the friendly competition that kept me in the chair for 1 more Q and 1 more mult! I really enjoy these CQWW contests, and look forward to them each year. Hoping next years CQWW RTTY sees better conditions on the higher bands. For now, lets hope for great conditions for SSB in October and CW in November. I need zone 23 to finish off 40 zones for CQ Marathon, and more DXCC! November CW CQWW will be my best chance as a low power, low hanging antenna station to add to my totals. Come on SFI! 73, thanks for these contests. Always fun! Gene,N9TF K3S running 85 watts output with MMTTY. Antennas, 10-20m 2 element triband at 37' 40 and 80, short triband dipole 40/80/160 at 35', also used a 160m shortened half sloper at 35' for 80m with tuner as supplement to the dipole. Murphy issues with dipole! |
| NA2NY | SO LP ALL | Part time effort |
| NA4DA | M2 | My wife and I tried a Multi-two effort from our home in North Central Florida. Lots of fun, the Flex6600 and Yaesu FT-DX101dx worked well with JK antennas |
| NC4MI | SO LP ALL | Another good contest by the CQ sponsor's. Conditions were rough. Had an S9+ noise level in the WNC area. I still had fun. Thanks to everyone I contacted. 73 es everyone stay safe and healthy. 73 es GOD Bless, Bill |
| NF4A | SA HP ALL | Bands Sucked |
| NG1I | SO HP ALL | Seems that most operators only live in either IL, OH, or Italy |
| NL8F | SO HP 80M | Great Fun Wish I had more time to devote to it |

| NW2P | SA HP ALL | Remote to Summit NY |
| NY0J | SO LP ALL | Did pretty well for 100watts and a 18' piece of downspout for an antenna |
| NY6DX | SA LP ALL | Great shake down contest |
| OE1CIW | SO LP ALL | This contest had maybe the worst band propagation ever with an unsettled geomagnetic field (K 4 -5) so i was marvelling that nevertheless i could make some contacts and when i compare to the former years i??m quite happy with my raw score. I noticed that many of the signals were not so loud altogether than i am used to be from the recent past. Some regions were totally or almost unhearable here like Canada or some Scandinavian stations. Loudest station here on 80 m from USA was W1UE - what a killer signal! Of course i tried it ... but due my bad antenna i didn??t get him in my log. Mainly on 40 and 20 m i noticed the poor propagation. Yes i did hear even ZF1A on 40 m and PZ5RA or LU6ETB on 20 m loud but they didn??t hear me at all ... not even a QRZ? Normally it works without any big troubles ... so this time it was a lot more difficult to get some DX in the log! This contest has changed my mind ... more sunspots would be nice of course but it helps tremendously if no flare attack is visible at all and especially not earth directed. Thanks to everyone who get me in their log and for your patience if my signal was poor. 73 de Michael OE1CIW |
| OE2E | M2 | Worked first time as M/2 station. It was a nice competition between DM4X and us as you could see in the live contest scoreboard. Contest worked on the great OE2S Station.

| ON6NL | SA LP ALL | Start was great on 80 but the rest of the weekend a disaster. Great to run a competition with ON5GQ and ON4CT for the Belgian SO(A)AB LP record. Gave me motivation not to stop. LP is very much like QRP, much S/P and CQing does not bring much. The last 100 QSOs took me 4 hours |
