WB9LRKSO LP ALLWish I had more timeto work the contest
WB9TFHSO LP 10MOperated as SOLP 10 meters while its still hot. Used my Yaesu FT-710, 100 watts & yagi. Part time S&P, but had a lot of fun with this radio with N1MM. 10m was open late in the evening to Asia and west, what nice treat. Good DX ops with exchanges. Thanks for Q's, gud DX

WE1MMSLNice to hear the bands so busy again
WF4VSO LP ALLKids sports weekend so very casual. Still fun
WH6EYSO LP ALLConditions were good this year, made more European contacts than usual. I had just gotten my 35 year old Cushcraft A4S back up in the air the evening before contest. Had taken it down for it's annual cleaning plus added a new run of coax. Contacted many old friends and made a bunch of new ones. Will definitely be ready for next year. A big Mahalo to everyone I contacted, greatly appreciate every contact and greatly appreciated everyone's patience when band conditions made exchanges a little tough. Looking forward to next year. 73 and Aloha from the island of Kauai, Hawaii, de John, WH6EY

WO7TSO QRP ALLQRP SSB is my biggest challenge, and the weekend was full of other obligations, but I played a tiny bit, and the bands seemed pretty good. Thank you to those who pulled me out of the noise
WQ2NSO HP ALLHome brew 30 ft vertical lakeside performed great again. Have to call CQ more vs S&P. The 1 time I called CQ racked up 52 contacts in 23 mins on 20 meters
WQ3NSO HP ALLPlease note I had issues with my computer and logging program. When I went to correct I put the frequency where the call should be
WQ6XSO QRP ALLThis is another WQ6X QRP Weird Prefix Contest from Ramona. Before and after running a pair of WPX demonstrations as WA6OYC & K6QLF, the main weekend goal was to run another QRP WPX Ssb remotely from Ramona. Radio firmware problems this week nearly sidelined everything, when on Friday, Superman (aka N6KI) drove in and swapped-in a replacement radio. This weekend of course has been coming off some HORRIBLE geomagnetic noise, making the bands nosily-uncomfortable and ruining 40-meter propagation. And of course, behind the scenes was the pulsing internet disconnects. If I seemed to flip out on you or momentarily disappear, blame my ISP, I was just a helpless victim standing-by. :=). Overall, 10-meters was the band, with 15m a struggle. 40m was a disappointment and wassup with nearly nobody hearable on 75? I worked all I HEARD. My recommendation is that stations need to speak their callsign SLOWLY TWICE during their CQ call, and put a PAUSE in between elements of the CQ Call, SOAPBOX: lest during Space-WX storms it be classified as an unintelligible JUMBLE. Look for a write-up on this GiG at: http://WQ6X.Blogspot.com

WV1KSO HP 10MOnly had time to get on Sunday afternoon for a few hours. Had a big pile up on 10M so my WV1 prefix was sought after. When that pile up diminished I did a bit of S&P before going QRT.
