M0RNRSA HP ALLFirst CW contest. Hard work, my Morse needs more work. Enjoyed it though
M0TEFSA LP ALLA casual op entry with 100w from ft-1000mp MrkV and Butternut HF-9v antenna 10m-80m. It was great to see what 100 watts and a basic vertical antenna can do over a weekend, some great conditions and great ops in this contest, a real pleasure to work those stations that made it to the log
M2DSA HP ALLThanks for a great contest - 73 Phil M2D (G4NVR)
M2GSA HP 20MSome of the best conditions of the year
M2JSA HP ALLK3,KPA500 @ 200W O/P 22M LONG DOUBLET FOR 80/40 @8M & TB31 FOR 20/15/10
M2LSO HP 10MAt 00:00z, 10m was still wide open, very rare in G-Land, especially during the sunspot minimum. Path to NA and South America was very poor and only a handful of Q's made to the West. Signals from EU were huge all weekend and some good run rates were to be had. In 2019 I entered the same category chasing G4GIR's long standing 1981 record of 155,856 points but fell short due to busted calls. This year I was amazed when I finished the contest with 863,148 points. Thank you to all those who called, see you next year! de M2L (M0BJL)
M3MSO LP 10MSome very poor CW. Fast and numbers even faster. Even machine CW can be poor
M3RSA LP ALLMuch improved cndx Great parttime operation, tks
M6OSA HP 10MOutstanding 10m conditions! Who knew you could make nearly 1500 QSOs in 28hrs on 10 without sunspots! Rig: K3 with ACOM amplifier to 400W Ant: 4-el Ultrabeam at 10m/32ft
M6WSA QRP 15MOperated al fresco making the most of the lovely summer weather. Encountered a completely new type of QRM when a wood pigeon started cooing exactly the same pitch as my CW side-tone. Meant for tricky copying of callers who were zero beat!
M7RSCSA LP ALLLicensed since 19th Dec 2019
M8CSO QRP 10MSimple 1/4-wave ground-plane at 5 feet in the tiny front garden!
MC2ISO LP 10MOnly tried 10m to see if band was open 1000+qsos later i supposed it must have been!
MM0TSO HP ALLI Was just going to play and give a few points but as conditions were quite good on the higher bands and activity was more than I expected, I decided to give it a more serious go
MM2NSA HP 10MArrived about 6 hours too late it seems
MM3NSO HP ALLGREAT TO SEE ALL THE BANDS OPEN AGAIN USED THE POPULAR SD SOFTWARE WHICH RAN PERFECTLY
MM3TSO HP 10MThanks to all who worked me
MM4DSA LP 15MStill persevering with CW! Thanks to all for QSOs and their patience with my CW. Shame 15m didn't open up to NA for me....worked only two and a handfull of SA, no JA, VK, ZL. Still, enjoyed the contest and hopefully conditions will only improve over the next years. 73 to all

N1RMSO HP ALLSpent Saturday installing connectors on hard line at my new station. I got done soon enough to hook one up to an OCF dipole and was greeted by a full band scope when I got back to the radio. Put in a few hours Saturday night and a few more Sunday afternoon. Love the low noise levels at the new shack. Mostly S&P, but had a good run for about an hour on Saturday night. Thanks for the Qs
N2EMSO LP ALLWhy so few stations on 80 meters?
N2HMMSO LP ALLThe weather was too nice to stay indoors
N2YOSA HP 40MUsually I operate on 40m from Steve NR4M who plays Multi-Multi in this contest every year. This year participation in multioperator category was not possible so I decided to fire my little station for some fun. I used FT-950, 500W and inverted V antenna. Participation sounded pretty good and the band was in reasonable shape. Thanks for all Qs! 73 de Chip N2YO
