ON5SVSO LP ALLI am very happy to have participated to this contest because usually i have no time to do it but this month it was possible and i have spent a very good time at the radio. Tnx to everybody for the nice spirit during this contest. Pat ON5SV
ON5WLSO LP 80MThere was much activity on the bands. I worked with low power and that is not enough to call cq in SSB, so I searched the band for qso. But I enjoyed the contest. Till next year. 73 Leon ON5WL
ON6NLSA HP ALLGlad with the result! Did not go full speed to stay in good shape and all my antennas are cut for CW. Just removed 1 meter of the 80 antenna at one side bringing me an acceptable SWR around 3700. This worked great. My best runs were on 80 in the evenings hours. For the rest it was frustrating as a dipole on 40 and a 4 el tribander on 20 with 700W are just not enough to create a run on these overcrowded bands. Back to CW or digi-modes! IC7610 ACOM1k at 700W KT34a and dipoles on 20m up N1MMlogger+ , LZ7A DXcluster

PA0AAMSHNice contest with good activity all over the bands. Significantly reduced number of operators at the station due to covid-19 actions and precautions taken, or else the effort would have been a multi-two setup. We experienced some minor issues at the station, so we keep on improving and see if we can upgrade the station for getting better efforts in future contests. Nevertheless we enjoyed the participation and we definitly will be there in the future !!!

PG7MSA HP 20MEven that the hexbeam could not be turned around, I'm satisfied. It is just into 1 direction JA/VK due to mechanical problem
PI4SHBMSHOur hobby is one of the safest these (Corona) days! Normally the callsign PI4SHB is activated by a large group, but this time it was just the two of us. It was clear that lots of people stayed at home contesting, so the bands were full of stations! Sometimes one could hear children's voices in the background. Rare DX was to be worked. Thanks to all active stations! See you next year hopefully without Corona!
