KK4EMChecklogThe contest was very fun. I had a blast!
KK7BFYSO QRP ALLFirst license 10-2021 Rookie — first licensed 6 October 2021. QRP, urban portable, and an alliterative callsign—could I make it harder on myself? Took a little time this weekend to fine-tune my wilderness rig and a contest weekend is a perfect opportunity to really test its mettle. Though I wasn't shooting for a record score, I had a blast chasing contesters and making some truly amazing DX contacts, while showing a few curious young passersby how much fun ham radio can be. Another goal for next year! Xiegu X5105, home-brew single-band EFHWs on a fishing pole mast, from a park overlooking downtown Seattle
KK7HCZSO LP ALLFirst license 06-2022 Initial license granted on 06/28/2022
KL2ZZSO HP ALLHaven't done an SSB contest in a while. Had to relearn how to specify and verify an exchange reliably so I am sure I have more errors than I should. Solar storm was fun. Odd proagation holes for DX I normally work easily. Bailed early due to static fatigue. Bands were noisy! 112 missing due logging error. 178 is a dupe

KM4PIHSO LP ALLMy first WPX. Fun contest!
KM9RSO LP ALLMost memorable for this contest was the ability to work European Russia one call no fills required with only 100w and a wire from the west coast USA. All credit belongs to the Russian super stations. 73 Mike km9r
KN3BSO HP ALLFirst contest since baby arrived, several QSOs were /baby. All S&P
KN6OKYSO QRP 20MFirst license 042021 2021-04-13 Initial License grant date. (Last time I can enter as a rookie category). Overall, this was fun despite bad weather and just a couple hours to work it. I took a portable set with me to operate QRP and a vertical antenna. The park site was good and easy to get to. However, I was not well equipped for the weather and several rain showers hampered operations, till the last one came down pretty hard which I had to cease operations and pack up. I would do this again next year. 73 to all that did a QSO with me

KQ2MSO HP ALLGreat cndx and mediocre cndx alternated with some spectacular band openings to Asia/JA on 10 Friday and Saturday evening. Loads of fun with plenty of exotic mults and excellent rates. Operated NON-Assisted and basically with one radio and still came close to 5k qsos! Can't wait for 2025 WPXSSB! Tnx & 73 Bob, KQ2M

KS7TSO LP ALLThere was nothing normal about what was happening on the bands at my qth and as AL7LO said to me while wrkg him off the side on 10 with a loud signal while we were marveling about the huge signals from EU late at night on 20 he said thats why we do what we do after I said I love surprises. They were so loud I had to turn the attenuator on and the preamp off and they still overloaded my 590sg!

KZ4MKJSO LP 10MFirst license 05/2021 love you guys for putting these contests together .. thank you
KZ5DXSO HP 15MHappy Easter!
LA3CLASO LP ALLHad a powerout for 8hours
LA4CM2Main goal was to check out new antennas for 28 and 21 MHz. That was a success. We look forward to further contests with this setup
LA8OMSO HP ALLAlways, Easter time = Full week mountain cabin snow time. However, this year lousy weather had us chicken out and return home for this week-end. Thus, WPX SSB suddenly became a good opportunity to give the newly installed DX Commander vertical antenna a good try. And it did a super job on 10-40m, while a dipole handled 80m. Though unusual for me to spend 25 hours in a non-CW contest, the good conds on Saturday made this worthwhile and at times quite fun :-)
