| N0YO | SO LP ALL | Propagation was much better then 2020 . I operated High power last year and scored around 120K points. This year on Low power Raw score was around 34K more. I only wish I would have had more time to be on air. Still my favorite contest! |

| N4RWH | SO LP ALL | Fun contest. Thanks to those who worked to make this a successful event |
| N4VGE | SO LP ALL | I suggest a mobile overlay |
| N5RZ | SO HP 20M | Got on for 30 minutes Sunday afternoon with a KW and |
| N6DW | SO HP ALL | I should stick to domestic phone contests, less frustrating |
| N6HI | SO QRP ALL | QRP, part time effort, ONE HALF WATT to a 20 ft. wire. I missed the best times, and conditions were not great. Thanks to all for the QSOs. CU for WPX CW end GO ARIZONA OUTLAWS! 73, John N6HI |
| N6RV | SO HP ALL | Just playing for a few hours. It was fun! |
| N6SMH | SO LP ALL | Thank you! |
| N6TPT | SO LP ALL | Noise level at my QTH is rather high, S5-S6, so I'm sure there were plenty of stations I didn't hear. The power went out about 2330 and didn't return until after 0100, so the last 1/2 hour of the contest didn't happen |
| N6ZE | SO LP ALL | Thanks to 'CQ' for sponsoring |
| N7MZW | SO LP ALL | High winds and ice loading was causing an intermittent short in the matching section of my 90 foot long ZS6BKW antenna. I think that I was trying to match just one side of the antenna, and the number of repeats asked for during the contest exchange, seems to confirm this |
| N7OSR | SO LP ALL | 1/20/2021 |
| N7QR | SO LP 20M | IC706, gnd mtd Butternut HF6V |
| N7WY | SO HP ALL | Time on 15 hrs, FTdx-101mp, alpha 87a, M2 Yagis |
| N8CWX | SO LP ALL | 8/11/2020 |
| N8DE | SO HP ALL | Poor conditions, as was expected. Antenna tuner quit working about 0600 Sunday morning. Unable to use the antenna, so quit the contest. Now to repair and/or replace the antenna tuner. NEXT YEAR! |
| N8HKU | SO LP ALL | A couple of hours, wire antenna, some contacts |
| N8II | SO LP 15M | Condx were better than ARRL DX SSB on 15M, but not by much. Only the Mediterranean area of EU was workable and not for long. I may have missed western NA Saturday as the band was in good shape in 22Z hour after a long break. Sunday I barely worked KH6 and added maybe 2 SOCAL Q's only to west. SA was booming in Sunday in the 22Z hour, I had a run of 10 or so SA then |
| N8IVN | SO HP ALL | 80m continues to be the money band from this QTH. And, while I had to drop my power substantially on 40m so that I didn't take out our FIOS, it still afforded me the opportunity to make plenty of contacts. Hopefully, by the next contest Verizon will have taken care of this issue for us. It was good to hear so many of the club members on the bands! While this was a limited operation due to Passover preparations and family visits it was still great fun. Many thanks to those who spotted me. 73 Dennis N8IVN |
| N8TCP | SO LP 20M | Windstorm antenna damage on Friday. Still able to make a couple though |
| N9CD | SO LP ALL | First licensed 11-19-2019 |
| N9TF | SO LP ALL | Bands were rough for this little pistol. Strong signals from EU on 20m both days, just CQd in my face! Attempts to call CQ was painful, and I have the bruises to show! Tough at times to break through EU calling EU in pileups. Saturday was terrible prop NA to EU even though EU was strong here. Storms close by Saturday night pretty much put a lid on 80 and 160. Nice surprise though Saturday morning to hear and work ZM4T on 40m after SR Even better Sunday morning, about the same time after sunrise here, to hear and work not one, but two VKs on 40m. I was shocked to tune across both calling CQ and no takers! Nice to see a bit more activity on 15m and 10m. Mostly SA and Caribbean, but there was even a brief opening on 15m Sunday to NW AF islands and far Western EU. Now it's time to calm the nerves with a nice clean pour of my favorite bourbon! Thanks for sponsoring a fun contest. 73 Gene, N9TF Rig, K3S 100 watts to a 2 element triband and low hanging wires and dipoles for 14/80/160 |

| NA7UT | SO QRP ALL | So much better than last year. The bands seemed to be open, as evidenced by my numerous 15 meter contacts. I really enjoyed the few hours I spent operating this contest |
| NC1A | SO LP ALL | Enjoyed the contest....used OCF wire inverted dipole on 15 20 and 40M at 42 ft |

| NK4O | SO LP ALL | Didn't start running until the last two hours of the contest. Next year I'll start earlier. First time ever on this contest in my 43 years of hamming. Back to CW land.
