K3NTSO LP ALLTU CQ! The rules detail just keeps getting better. Nice Job! 2020 CQ CW WW WPX was a fun contest. Enjoyable in spite of transceiver failures requiring multiple attention. Interesting propagation on 10 thru 80 meters. Enjoy reading each issue of CQ magazine, especially the operating and technical pages
K3TWSA HP 160M'Band conditions on 160m were excellent without the usual QRN at this time of the year. Many thanks for the QSOs.'

K5HEMSA LP ALLFirst CW WPX, good conditions but had some storms Sunday evening - great time!
K5RXSO HP ALLDid not feel well at start and only operated 16.5 hours - far short of my intended time. However, I enjoyed excellent conditions at times. 10 meters opened to the bigger stations in Europe. 40 meters was not very noisy, which is rare from Texas this time of year. Unfortunately during a JA run Sunday, the antenna SWR went sky high while the score was soaring with 6 point QSOs and multipliers
K5XUSO LP ALLGreat to find activity on 10 meters
K6CSLSO LP ALLBest event so far this year!
K6NRSO HP ALLGreat contest, terrific conditions given the current stage of the solar cycle! 20 meters was open late (I went to bed before it did), 40 meters was good stateside and to Europe (on Saturday). Didn't hear much on 160. 15 meters was open well stateside and as a real treat to Eu on Sunday morning (signals were weak but I could be heard). First Eu on 15 in quite a while. Nice to have 10 meters open a little too. Lots of QRN here, but with strong signals that is less important. There was no end of stations to work, the limit was how long I could stay in the chair! Thanks for the QSOs everyone. Dana ... Station: K3/KPA1500 Antennas: ' on 20, ' on 15, ' on 10, 40 meter 4 square, 80m vertical and 160m inverted L over 67 radials

K7MMSO HP ALLDipole only. Prepping new antenna structure this weekend
K7NJSA HP 40MHeavy atmospheric noise at times and QSB making copy difficult
K7VITSA HP ALLIn the Pacific Northwest (PNW), we don't get lightning like those in the SE and midwest. So it's always interesting in the PNW when we have to close down and disconnect (2x) because of lightning. I guess we'll get ionized layers one way or the other. Thanks to all who answered my calls. 73, Jerry

K8GLSO HP 20MVery good contest! There was a lot of activity and condx were good
K8LFSO LP ALLGlad to see close in propagation on 10 meters on Saturday
K8RCTSO HP ALLGood to hear 10 and 15 meters open for a change
K8SJPSO LP ALLAlways enjoy the WPX contest. Conditions were better on Sunday. look forward to doing it again next in 2021
K8TESA HP ALLDespite shutting down for nearby lightning twice, I had a lot of fun in this contest! Even with ?mediocre? propagation, I was pleased with the amount of DX copied. With a pair of low dipoles and local noise, working DX is always a challenge. That?s why this contest is so much fun because everybody gets to work everybody else. I encountered what seemed to be a lot of CW decoders that weren?t working well. I occasionally had to send a prefix three times to get some ops to stop transmitting. Use the DX Code of Conduct #1 rule?Listen, listen, listen. That works in contests too. Thanks to the sponsors and all involved for running another great event! 73, Bill, K8TE K3/KPA1500/Low Dipoles
K8YESA LP 20MI had fun and enjoyed all of the activity on the Bands! Thanks for the opportunity to participate!
