N7OOSMSL1st CQ WPX contest for us. Very happy with the results
N7SESO LP ALLSSB contests are always tougher than CW for us 80 watts and an end-fed wire guys. Nonetheless, as always, WPX is fun. Thanks for the contest
N7VMSO LP ALLI wasn't sure if I was up for a long SSB contest, but this was WAY more fun than I expected. I haven't put a serious effort into WPX in over 25 years, and I see I've been missing out on a lot of fun! Conditions seemed fantastic (except for a few hours after the solar flare and intermittent rain static, local lightning, and QSB on Sunday). Murphy took out the high 15m antenna right before the start (that hurt), but the lower antennas are better to Asia anyway so it really only hurt to Europe/Africa. Many thanks for the many QSOs!!
N7VSSO LP ALLThank you for hosting another interesting event.Conflicts limited my operating time. SSB is a struggle for me with low power and a wire antenna. 80 meter antenna blew down in mid January. Haven't been able to get it back up yet. Thank you for the contacts.Hope to be back next year. 73, Steve N7VS

N8IVNSO HP ALLHaving limited time this weekend I had a good time playing in this one. It is always nice to see other members of the club on the air. My thanks to Ed/N1EK for keeping me motivated as we 'pushed' each other via the scoreboard. See you in the next one(s). 73 Dennis N8IVN
N8MDSO LP ALLGreat contest again this year!
N8TPSO LP ALLI had a busy weekend and almost didn't get to check into the contest, but I did manage to find a few hours on late Sunday afternoon. I don't have a home station but I do have a portable station in a box that I set up on my breezeway. For an antenna, I used a mobile mag-mount with screw in elements for several bands mounted on the metal roof of my garage. The bands were so open that this meager setup still allowed me to make 46 contacts in 19 countries (including a few new ones!) and with 39 prefix mults

N9ARXSO LP ALLEnded up only working 10, 15 and 20 Meters. Need a better antennas for 40 and 80 meters if just running 100 watts
N9GBSO HP ALLCondx good here except for 80 on Friday night and Saturday afternoon propagation drop. Friday night static crashes were bad. Had a few times when the amp dropped out and did not notice it
NA6TTSO HP ALLAs others have mentioned... great conditions the first day-- Second day, not so much. Fun to participate with the club callsign! 73 Glenn K6NA
NC8RSO LP ALLOperator age 18
ND0LSO LP ALLHad a lot of fun - especially enjoyed the overnight hours. A couple of all time new countries to boot!
NI0KSO HP ALLMan I had fun! Two firsts: over 1000 Qs and over 1M points. Murphy stayed away. This is one of my favorite contests- with so many mults the points rack up really fast and that really makes me feel good. With the solar storm the lower bands weren't very good. 15 was my money band and I was able to get a couple good runs
NI9FSO HP ALLOperator age 21 Born December 2002
