"It's the first time I've operated pretty much full bore in a phone contest.
Typically, I operate almost 100% CW. It was the most I have ever scored
in a major contest as a QRP entrant, I think, except perhaps in the 1985
contest, where I placed in the Top Ten SOAB world-wide." - NZ5A
"I had not planed on operating this contest, but I started out checking out
antennas late Saturday night and the bands were in such good shape, I worked
a few hours Saturday and then put in most of the day on Sunday. It was
nice to see 10 meters open." - AB5K
"Who would have thought 10 meters would have been this good at this point
on the down side of the current sunspot cycle?" - NA4M
What a great contesting weekend. Conditions were so good that Susan K5DU
and I both operated more than we expected to. We had the usual core
team of Scott KI5DR and Rich N5ZC over, and Dana K6NR flew in from
California to give us a hand. On Sunday morning, Dale KG5U was a welcome
sight, arriving to help us finish out the contest. For the most part,
this operating team has been together many times now, and we have a very
smooth operating relationship with each other. The running to Europe and
Japan certainly exceeded our expectation. The general conditions for a
contesting weekend were just superb. The station worked with no
major failures and the software (WriteLog) worked well, showing some nice
improvements from last year." - K5NA
