M9BSA LP ALLOperator age 19. 9th Nov 2003 Birthday
MM9ISA HP ALLGreat condx on the high bands. Really enjoyable and certainly made a difference on last years score
MW9WSA LP ALLWow... I look forward to this contest every year and I think I'm getting better at it! I planned to do the whole 48hrs, but some un-planned for events in the previous week meant I wasn't fully rested prior to the start. So about 25hrs in I had to take a sleep break losing about 3hrs. Unfortunately on the Sunday we had a storm blow through here and at 20:00utc I had to call it a day when I lost my 80m and 40m aerials plus we had a power outage... So in the end I only managed to operate for 41hrs but what a blast. Conditions went from amazing to poor and back to amazing throughout the weekend. Will I have won a plaque... NO Did I have fun... YOU BETCHA. RTTY ROCKS! 73 Ian MW9W / GW0KRL

N6ANESPortable operation from Cerro Negro Benchmark. KX3. 5 watts, 44' doublet fed with CAT5e single twisted pair on 6 meter mast. Hand sent and logged on my phone
N6DWSO HP ALLSeemed like you could point your beam anywhere on Sunday. Nice JA and Pacific run Saturday night. Good opening to middle east on Saturday morning. Great fun. Love RTTY contests
N6HISO QRP ALLQRP 5W Max to a 20-Foot End-Fed Wire. 51 of my QSOs, including all W/VE QSOs, were completed using just ONE HALF WATT. Tnx for your patience and the QSOs. Go Arizona Outlaws! -73- John N6HI
N6KHOSO LP ALLFirst time RTTY contest, little rough getting started, low score, but lots of fun!
N6RVSA HP ALLThe first 24 hours I had the microphone input selected wrong. I selected the microphone and MMTTY was decoding from the radio speaker to the computer microphone. It was doing such a good job. I finally notice it and the world was at peace! So much for getting old!
N6SPPSO LP ALLFantastic paths on 10 from the Bay Area!
N6XISO HP ALLWeird contest - From here in the US, W/VE stations are harder to work than DX because you have to actually copy the state and zone, but they count for fewer points than the easier DX contacts. Of course, Call History fills in a lot of it but the finger training here is deficient
N7CKJSO LP ALLGoing was rough until I figure out how to match up incoming and outgoing tones in the N1MM program. All good after that
N7UJJSO LP ALLBeen a while since I worked a 48 hour contest. Great fun
N7VGOSO HP ALLFun contest, Thanks for all the contacts
N7VSSO LP ALLThank you for hosting an interesting event. We had a nice turnout. Sorry I could not be more active. Thank you for the contacts. Hope to be back next year. 73, Steve Brandt N7VS
N8URESA QRP 15MI set out with the goal of beating the US QRP 15m assisted record, which I reached mid Sunday. 15m was excellent Saturday and even better Sunday until the geomagnetic storm hit. I had two stations disappear with no TU response after the exchange. One is my buddy and we don't know how it happened! Software glitch? Two stations this year had extra wide signals and only one was splattering everywhere. There was more rude behavior than I've seen before, including some deliberate QRM and people continuing to send their call while others were trying to make an exchange. At least a few points were missed due to that
N9ARXSO LP ALLMy first RTTY contest entry ever, after over 45 years of Ham Radio, I guess it's about time! Didn't get my interface figured out until the next day, but still managed to get a number of contacts under my belt. Looking forward to the next RTTY event! 73's N9ARX
