M0AAA Very disapointing result. I had the Helikite up with a 60 metre vertical on (3/4 wave). I think most of my signal was missing the UK. I will try a half wave next time M0AJT Enjoyed using SD logger but that was about all. Roll on CW. M0BPQ What a racket! Got bored being last in the queue all the time so gave up... Elecraft K2, Inverted L at 20 feet M0CES Too many folk on. M0CNP Nice to see conditions improving, almost to 2030 M0CUL/P Entered from on holiday. Busy as ever! M0FRH Thanks to all who worked me, SD great as always M0KOP Had antenna probs hi swr all of a sudden, om rehung antenna and soldered bad joint. thanks all that worked me M0LUV 2nd Contest Attempt M0NKS good evening with QRP and a little patience not much jamming this evening lots on M0NZA Very busy and very enjoyable contest.

M0RBG Crowded band but great fun M0SCG Great Contest M0SPC Hectic as usual, good fun M0WTG Enjoyed this one. SD working great. M0WYB Swapped the end fed for a 80m dipole and what a surprise - my best ever score! M0XDF A lot of QRM and a lot of contestants M0XJP Always enjoy these short contests, strong QRM though M1KAH Horrible , totally wrong times for me ! M1PTR Excellent conditions and pleased with the result M3RCV Glad condx were back to normal! M3UJL really struggled tonight ... SWR all over the place M3WYX nice contest good run at the beginning but drastic crackling on band from local industrial park meant we had to resort to s and p.. MM0GPZ Getting harder to be heard down south again. Some huge G signals this month. PA0MIR Nice to hear such good activity. Will try to be there more often in the future. Only the thursday is not possible generally PA7PYR Nice contest. Tnx for all participants in this contest |
SOAPBOX: 2E0KXDDue to family commitments I could only get on for the last half hour 2E0RFS Heavy QRM made this contest hard work G0AFQ Second attempt at cabrillo format G0AJJ Nice to hear so much activity. G0DVJ Rushed entry from alternative location tonight. Lots of activity as usual. No way could I get a frequency to run tonight G0FYX Reasonable condx. SD used in contest. G0HSA An enjoyable contest. For a change the propagation was there for inter G, SD was performing well as usual G0ICJ good condx lots of strong stations G0IIQ Very Noisy - Hard Work G0JLF What a Zoo! G0KDS/P new expierience /p 1200ft ASL with a straight dipole at 20ft, in the club champs G0LGJ False start in car RF getting in system. Good conditions at last G0MLY My first entry in an RSGB HF contest! Very enjoyable - mores so when I found a clear frequency on which to call CQ! Search & pounce worked well too though, so an enjoyable experience for a first time! G0MTN Busy. G0OKF Conditions much better that last ssb Contest. SD as usual performed faultlessly. G0ORH There was a lot of skullduggery going on. Recordings were being played back, false callsigns, serial numbers were sent by others over the top of info being passed. The RSGB wants to have a look at this, it's getting beyond a joke! G0RAF Very enjoyable evening. First time with SD log. it worked a treat. G0RXA First time participation, hard work but fruitful G0SIQ Band was noisy G0UHM Very good G0UIQ was good contest . no time for a tea. thanks all for the points G0VGS Great conditions finally, some interesting audio though G0VJG Tks g4buo 4 kick up bum and getting us on air G0WJX Ten Tec Orion 1. Extended 1/2 G5RV G0WWD Plenty of activity and good conditions G1JCC Very good contest but only worked search and pounce. Band seemed good. G1OAC conditions were very bad G3GLL SD was ok G3HRH Very busy and noisy. QRM from non-contest SSTV and EU G3IZD Much better condx for inter-G working so some enormous signals and much QRM. Again good to contact so many stns obviously new to contesting no doubt encouraged by their clubs G3JRM lots of stations on top of each other making copy difficult none the less enjoyed G3KAF Raising ant height has made a hugh difference. Enjoyable as always. G3LDI Wonderful now that Thomas, PA1M has written some RSGB modules for us UK people! Propagation was a whole lot better tonight as well, with lots of stations on. G3LHJ Less holes to find this time - lots of QRM - Big turn-out - 73 Derrick. G3LIK Not a good one had cold/cough. Lots of wide spread interference from QRO stations. At least I was able to take part Great to use SD for logging G3NDJ band condx good SD good to use G3NPF Good conditions for a change G3OFA Kenwood with 100 Watts Long wire G3PHO Excellent conditions! The first time I have managed to run a frequency throughout the contest.I thought I was doing really well until I was told at the end that some had exceeded 200 (again!). However that's a PB for me so far so I'm well chuffed. I'll miss the May contests but will be thinking of you all at 1900z from the distant shores of VK/ZL! G3RCM One Dup - removed. Great conditions and the inverted V erected for the contest worked very well. Heavy QRN S9+ towards the bottom end of the band persisted at this QTH. Lots of strong signals around though - enjoyed the odd pile up too! G3RRL Good contest lots of qrm who cares! G3RSD Used "sd" worked perfectly G3SVD Another enjoyable HFCC contest. This year there seem to be more Stations from GM land active and a good number of PAs giving points away. The PAs were the only Non- UK stations I worked this time. Some M3s and 2E0s also seemed to be doing well. G3VPW Continue to improve the score rate, had a better run for the latter part of the contest. Proved that S&P is not quite so productive in the 80m CC ! G3WYW 1st 45 Mins a waste of time as S9 QRM.but after that band cleared up and started to be heard! G3YEC Extremely noisy tonight. Again some big signals. When oh when is the RSGB going to do something about the stations that just call QRZ? after a QSO and do not give their callsign after each QSO (contrary to the Rules as given by the RSGB). COME ON RSGB G3ZBU excellent conditions this time. G3ZGC Just a bandful of QRM! G3ZHE single op. 100watts. 90ft doublet 30ft up. A much better night with stations all the way to the end. Sorry I cant get info to go with writelog 73 Thanks G3ZVW Good conditions and lots of activity. G4ARN/P good fun but local qrm a problem G4BUO Tried QRP for a change. S+P was hard for the first half hour and I kept getting beaten by 100w stations but then conditions changed and I got lucky, finding a CQ frequency which I managed to hold to the end. G4CKH Very busy on the band. G4DDX Found the band very crowded and noisy. Unable to find a space to CQ. used SD as usual G4ELY Hard going with only one usable hand. The other in a sling G4FKA Bit of a disaster all round. Good frequency initially but 3 minutes before the start some kind souls started a local QSO 250Hz HF and an S9+30 commercial crud generator started LF. Couldn't find another frequency so in desparation resorted to S&P. Very busy band with everyone QRMing each other! G4FQI Busy wansnt it? and getting the hang of SD logging G4GZB Certainly enjoyed using SD again G4IPZ One day I must get a working antenna installed ! If only I could have worked all that I heard! G4IUF Good start, but got QRMd off by YUs !! Enjoyed using SD G4IWS Hard work but SD makes it easier G4OGB What a racket. SD super again. G4OOC very noisy band conditions But SD was Superb as usual SD really is the tops in Logging progs G4RCG Great session but very very noisy I had to move off my run freq when two stations sat on top of me and would not move so I had to go S&P G4TPO Good conditions G4VUD Lots of very strong signals. The usual fun of trying to get heard by 59+++++ sigs. SD was great as always G7JJZ My first contest - pleaseed with results considering modest setup G7SHG band very noisy. Thanks to all stations G7SKR Busy and noisy. A better experience and score than the last contest. Need to sort out a better antenna though. G7VRK Best conditions yet this year. SD worked well as always G8FCQ Had some audio instabality but fixed it thanks thanks to g3sjj for report G8FMJ/P MUCH better conditions real good fun. G8MIA Conditions were good throughout the contest G8YMW Very noisy GM0OQV Lot of big station lot of qrm GW3KDB FT1000mp 100watts. Doublet at 45feet |
