| VY0ERC | SA HP 20M | It was complicated ... The plane taking us out arrives today, and we had to pull most of the antennas out yesterday. The extra energy needed around dealing with various aspects of COVID-19 meant I didn't really have it for the contest. Oh well |
| VY2GF | SO LP ALL | For confirmation only. Scoring not required |
| W0AAE | SO HP ALL | 15 year old ham radio operator. DATE LICENSED (8/17/2018) |
| W0JWR | SO LP ALL | Great Fun! |
| W0MN | SA HP ALL | Looked like social distancing was going well. Thank goodness for Ham Radio. :-) |
| W1AST | SO HP ALL | Wish I had more time to operate! |
| W1HS | SA HP ALL | This is one of my favorite contests, really wanted to operate multi single with my son (KC1GDW), and band conditions were quite favorable for that. However, circumstances would not allow and was only able to put in minimal effort as a single operator |
| W2AAB | SO LP 40M | S&P Only. 100 watts and a wire make for a grind on SSB. Erratic propagation required many repeats. Rig problems made things even tougher. Got to get the rig fixed before the CW weekend! |
| W2DWS | SO LP ALL | Radio - Elecraft KX3 with KXPA100, Antenna - Chameleon HF Whip with Extension |
| W2JV | SO HP ALL | QRZ is not a call sign! |
| W2VU | SO LP ALL | Mostly a domestic contest for me this year, with occasional good DX openings. Still had fun connecting with friends here in the US. Excellent social DXing! |
| W3FOX | SA HP ALL | This was my first experience operating the WPX contest and was not knowled geable about the best strategies. We had a thunderstorm with lightening in our are a on Friday night and it delayed me getting started at 0000Z because I disconnec ted the antennas, rotator cable, and the power cord for the amp. When I got on, I concentrated on 40 and 80 meters which was open to Europe. My 160 meter has issues and did not operate on 160. I chased multipliers at th e start and into Saturday, but did a few runs on Sat. and Sun.The last two o r three hours of the contest were the most productive for Q's. Didn't work an y new DXCC slots. Rig K4KIO Hex beam for 20, 15, and 10. Using RUMLogNG software for logging and contest. Being cooped up at home was a benefit to operating, but I did manage to get a full night's sleep on both Friday and Saturday night |
| W3MAM | SA LP 20M | First licensed 8 July 2019 |
| W3PAX | SO HP ALL | First time in the contest! I HAD A BLAST thanks for the DX! |
| W3TTT | SO LP 40M | My usual complaint: stations that 'run' but don't identify well. If a recording is made, then there is one or two letters of the call which are not clear. The OP keys the recording again and again, I hear it over and over and don't understand the third letter |
| W4BPP | SO LP ALL | this was my first contest!! i had a blast and plan to participate much more actively next time!!! thanks for your hard work. 73 de w4bpp |
| W4DAS | SA LP ALL | Always liked this contest because almost everyone is a multiplier. So I decided to have fun and make 100 contacts with 100 mults. 100 watts and a ground mounted vertical makes it hard to compete with most signals. Thanks for digging me out of the mud in many cases |
| W4DHT | SO HP ALL | Best WPX contest for me even 15-meters was open some on Sunday afternoon |
| W4EE | SO LP ALL | Ouch |
| W4GHV | SO LP ALL | IC-7610 & EFHW |
| W4JHU | SO LP 20M | Thanks for organizing, sponsoring, and conducting this contest |
| W4JVN | SA HP ALL | The N1MM software kept locking up on 20 meters would not track radio |
| W4LT | SA LP ALL | Testing new FlexRadio remote system. All contacts operated remotely |
| W4WWQ | SO HP ALL | 11.1 Hrs All S&P. If it had been a snow storm weekend I might have spent more BIC time, but was sunny and about 80. Enough QRN from nearby storms and QRM from all the quarantined hams world wide |
| W4WYR | SO LP ALL | Rookie 01/23/2018 |
| W6JBR | SO HP ALL | I enjoyed playing in this contest this weekend. Since rearranging my shack, upgrading my LAN, and working out RFI problems, I have had no issues with RFI, computer glitches, or other gremlins. I'm happy that everything is working FB here. Thanks for the Qs! 73 de JR Station: K3/100 ACOM 1000 RT-3000 Tuner 31 foot ground mounted wire vertical Koss SB/45 Communications Headset Dell Core2 1.8GHz WinXP N1MM+ |
| W6NCB | SA HP ALL | First CQ WPX lots of fun! |
| W6QU | SO QRP ALL | Tough times for QRP! Only 2 Qs in Europe from my San Diego QTH |
| W6RT | SO LP 20M | 8/21/2017 |
| W6SFG | SO LP ALL | Since I'm a newbie I'm still learning how to setup the logging program as MEDIUM thinking that was the 100 watt catagory. (Thinking low was qrp) Anyway after the contest I caught my mistake and changed it to LOW hoping that would fix it |
| W6US | SO LP ALL | Good participation. Still a lot of stations that are not giving their callsign in a timely manner, probably needs a rule change like the Sweepstakes that requires the call as part of the exchange |
| W7EDM | SO LP ALL | battery powered station |
| W7OKC | SO HP ALL | ROOKIE -MY FIRST CONTEST - RECORDED ON PAPER LOG AND COMPILED USING LM |

| W9YK | SA HP ALL | lucky to be heard |
| WA1FCN | SA LP 40M | It doesn't happen often, but I lost all motivation by 6:00 PM local time I turned off and called it over. I am sure most of you have had this same experience at one time or another |
