WPX SSB Soapbox built 4-30-2008 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: 2E0CVN Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 21,565 At M8C for most of the contest but nice to give the 2E0 mult away once I got home! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: 4L0A Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 10,720,848 To be in SOAB was decided in few hours prior to the contest. I was absolutely realistic about the station/qth and my chances in this category but at the end desire to check some recently introduced antenna settings overcome the other SO options I was considering. SO2R was not used, this is something new to me and I had no time to set it properly though all the gears are there. I am happy to the decision I made since now have much better understanding to which direction further improvements are possible. Again despite the propagation glitches which most of us have experienced I really enjoyed working this contest. The whole contest was done running generator. Yet again strong winds prior and during contest caused frequent power shut downs and I just had no other reliable option other than relying on big generator which worked just fine. Wind nevertheless caused another problem, after the break I have found that both Yagi on 80m and 40 were beaming off. 80m Yagi was off about 90 degrees, probably that is an explanation why had terrible start with 80m and moved on 40 after an hour of operation. The rest I guess is self explanatory from the table. My sincere thanks to all who called 73 Gia ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: 4O3A Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 10,351,127 Local thunderstorm closed Low bands totally for about one hour Sunday morning. Sorry for pushing back a big station to repeat numbers, but noise was +40dB….Thats what I missed for new EU record. Left last few hours for 40M beaming JAs, but forgot that in JA was Monday morning and Japanese are Japanese… In Montenegro we have to come on work when we have some spare time…Hi…. Thanks to all for calling. CU in WPX CW Ranko ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: 5D5A Class: M/S HP Total Score = 35,102,025 .....MORE NEWS LATER ON....... WE NEED TO SLEEP NOW !!!!! THANK'S TO ALL THE PARTECIPANTS 73' DE MATT IK2SGC, STEVEN IK2QEI AND SAID CN8WW ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: 6Y1V Class: M/2 HP Total Score = 30,315,222 Scott, W4PA, here. David KY1V told me on Monday after the contest "you like to write, put up the 3830 post with our score when you get back." Let me say -- what a fun weekend in Jamaica at the 6Y1V station. KY1V and K1LZ have gone to considerable effort to put up a major league contest station on the northwest side of the island near Montego Bay. All the toys you need are there -- rigs, big amps, monobander stacks on 10/15/20 plus 2 of the largest SteppIR antennas on two 140' towers. We continually got reports over the weekend that were "you're the loudest station on the band" or "I don't hear much anyone else right now, but you guys are 20 over 9 in [insert USA state]". The crew was myself, KY1V, K6AM, and WE9V. WE9V was putting in his second appearance in the Caribbean this month after running ARRL DX SSB at PJ2T SOABHP(A). WE9V had made up some op schedules prior to the contest and we ended up splitting the 96 available rig hours (M/2 = 48 hours x 2 radios = 96 op hours) roughly 15 for KY1V and 27-28 each for me, Chad, and John. Band conditions were predictably kind of bad. 15 meters opened weakly to Europe for a couple of hours each day and even the USA openings in the afternoon were pretty marginal. 10 never opened to the USA or EU -- all 21 QSO's were South America. In general, the peaks of Europe activity regardless of band were at local EU sundown/up -- we spent a whole lot of time listening to ESP-level weak signals in QRM on 40 meters trying for those valuable 6 pointers. One of the two op positions had a second radio in line with a commutator that allowed a second op to either click on spots or help listen to the run freq as needed -- me and K6AM spent the last two hours of the contest trying to pull out weak EU's at the same time while still daylight outside local. In the run up to operating last week, WE9V had sent out an email that suggested we try for the North American M/2 record. I was initially skeptical (you got me, Chad, you never had any doubt we were going to crush it) -- I figured we had the crew OK but the band conditions have been so horrific this month that I wondered if it would be reachable -- but I agreed we'd go for it. KY1V was at the mic when N2YO was worked on 40 in only the 28th hour of the contest when our claimed score passed the old mark. The claimed score is a tad over 30M; after log checking it ought to end up in the 28M range. The previous record was just under 16M set by V47KP in 2003. Cheers and a Red Stripe to David KY1V for having us down there this weekend to see and experience what he and Krassy have created. Hope to do it again!

Even worse than last year. W/VE were not that strong in general. Very few AF. Lots of EU but very few heard from western EU. Everybody heard was strong on 10m, but nobody heard outside of Oceania and Asia. Memory snippets and quotable quotes: K7RI: "Is my frequency clear? I'm not getting many responses!" (Yes, the frequency was very clear.) VE7SV: "Conditions are terrible!" (But you were still 59+10dB.) KH6???: You need to pause the digital voice keyer while CQing longer than 1 second if you expect anybody to answer. The pileup of JAs on 40m hardly got their first letter of their callsigns out before the CQ started again. If you couldn't hear those stations, something was wrong with your receiving system. We heard you 59+20dB. W?????: The split button is so you don't transmit on 7.045. JA????: The split button is so you don't transmit on 7.213. Everybody: Your sigs DON'T get louder if you talk faster. Once clearly is better than three times fast and fuzzy. Is a contact legitimate when the running station doesn't give his callsign for 5 contacts? Rules say the exchange is callsign/RS/serial for every contact. You deserve every dupe you get and every multiplier you missed. Check out operation at KP2TM....he gave his call EVERY single contact and his serial when last heard was 4000+. That's a winner. 7J1AQH: Good thing it's a hobby. Nobody could pay you to do this. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: 8P1A Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 21,290,716 Absolutely brutal first 8 hours. High bands were good on Saturday afternoon. 40 was outstanding on Saturday night and I wished I took off more time the night before. The lowbands made the difference. Slightly higher score than my claimed score in 2006, which was a North American record. Unfortunately, in the interim, log checking has surely improved more than my accuracy. Not sure about achieving a "three-peat," but still a fun event.

I hope the propagation will improve next year. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: 9M2CCO Class: SO(A)AB(TS) HP Total Score = 530,159 Rig: ICOM IC-756 PRO III, 400 Watts into 5 band Spiderbeam (3-Elements on 20M/15M, 4-Elements on 10M and 2-Elements on 17/12M) approximately 40 feet high. Interesting and the greatest contest that I have participated so far. Other commitments did not permit a longer operating period, but nevertheless I was satisfied with the result. Very surprisingly, 15M opened up to 0300 Local and I managed to work many new DXCCs from South America. 10M was also opened, with JAs, and a few other stations coming in 59. 20M managed to create a huge EU pile up, and was opened later than usual too. 40M was bad though - something that I really must improve on. I should not have moved the antenna before the contest. Although this gave me 6 points but the slow run rate and local noise which made hearing even JA stations difficult did not justify it. Unfortunately, unknowing to me, the Spiderbeam was off by nearly 20 degrees! This made it difficult to listen to QRP stations - my apologies for having to turn down many QRP stations as I simply could not hear them. I even had problems listening to QRP JA stations, something that a turn of the beam to JA will usually do the trick. Thank you for such a great and interesting contest. Good DX and Happy Contesting :-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: 9M8Z Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 8,445,174 Rig: FT-1000MP, Commander amplifier, 17-ele Optibeam at 75ft (3-ele on 40m, 4-ele on 20 and 15m, 6-ele on 10m). Great contest and one of my best single operator efforts for several years. Conditions overall were not that good but there were nevertheless some great runs to Europe on 20m on both days and even on 15m on the Sunday. Amazing too to work Brazil (antipodes of Borneo) long-path on 15m at 2.30am local time! Even 10m cooperated after a fashion with S9 signals from JA / HL / BY and VK (which was half expected) but also good signals from South Africa, Middle East and even a few Southern / Eastern Europeans (which was certainly not expected!) I found very little activity from US stations on 40m. I worked every single one that I heard calling CQ above 7150, usually first call, but when I called CQ myself and listened in the US phone band not a SINGLE station came back to me. Where were you all? Despite this there were many Americans who transmitted below 7100kHz to tell me to listen up when I was running Asians below 7100kHz. Hey guys, this is a contest, not a DXpedition! Why should I break a run of 6-point JAs that I was working at 2 or 3 a minute to spend perhaps several minutes trying to find a clear frequency among the S9 plus 40dB broadcast carriers to pick up a single US signal? You should have been there when I was listening for you! As usual I slept too much and only worked 30 of the possible 36 hours. Did I do enough to win Oceania? Only time will tell! 73, Steve, 9M8Z (op 9M6DXX, ex-G4JVG) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: AA5B Class: SOAB(TS) HP Total Score = 1,249,494 Didn't have much time to operate this weekend, and only got on the air for 2 of the last 25 hrs so it sounds like I missed the better half of the contest. Did get to use the Elecraft K3 for the first time, and liked it a lot. Thanks to Peter, K5HAB, for letting me use his station. 73, Bruce K3 + Acom Force 12 tribander (C3?) at 70 ft 80/40 inverted vees at 60 ft ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: AD0K Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 2,460 Poor band conditions during time I was operating. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: AD5VJ Class: SO(A)SB40 LP Total Score = 88,086 Had a great time, really enjoyed the pile ups on 40 meters. Everything went smoothly this time which made it even more enjoyable. Had to disqualify myself due to operator error using my N1MM software. It has an option of spotting all S&P's which I selected. Problem was however when I started my run I forgot to check the 'run' box so it spotted ever contact I made. Therefore due to self spotting I disqualified myself and will only be submitting my log as a check sheet. thanks to all for the contacts and good luck to everyone. Next year I hope to be more careful and submit a log to entry.

Test ended before I was ready for it to end. I was on a 70+/hr run when the clock ran out. Doug Adams was right about the magic number...two of us landed on QSO #42 at the same time! Did work any EU.

Anyway, nice competition and FB Operators. Conditions were not as I expected, it was kinda frustrating hearing CT1JLZ running Central and North Europe on saturday afternoon on 15m, and I couldnt even hear them... Something that makes me even more frustated was knowing that 15m was highly open to USA (N2NL59+10, WN1GIV 59+20) on sunday afternoon and I couldnt get a decent run, where were all USA station? QSOs: 40% NA 50% Europe 2 hours of my Off period had to be the last 2 hours of the contest, because I had Classes at University on Monday morning at 0800! I was having FB runs from USA on 20m when I had to QRT, next time I will try to be untill the end, the end always brings you new surprises... 73's cu in WPX CW... as CS2T CT1ILT Filipe Lopes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: CT7X Class: M/S LP Total Score = 1,664,260 Mr Murphy made a couple of visits... Not so much time to prepare our humble effort. Not even a Linear Amplifier, we had, to compete on our category. We assembled the station a few minutes b4 start. The TS2000 failed to receive a couple of CQ's after, at least CT1ERK brought his TS50 as backup radio. We assembled a G5RV during the first hour of contest to allow a running station and a multi station on the lower bands. N1MM failed in the beginning, which cost us a few Qs (and a couple of logged Qs). We were just 3 ops so we couldn't manage a full 48h effort but we tried to rest/sleep the less as possible. The lack of filters made operation of the multiplier station a bit difficult. Our goals were, at least 1k Qs or 1M Pts. We achieve them, so, at the end, we were kind'a happy. Setup: Antennas: TH3JRS, Diammond Dipole, G5RV (small ver). Radios: Icom 706 MKIIG, TS50. Pwr: 100W (@ both radios) PC: 2 Asus laptops + wired network Log: N1MM The TS50 didnt have CAT control, so basically we lost cat control from the main radio right in the beginning :( Well, after all, we did this for fun, we had it and we want more :) Must thank: .the AEP25 Scouts Group for their support (CT1FWS and the group) .CT1EYN Costa, for being always available ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: CT9L Class: SOAB(TS) HP Total Score = 16,735,000 Soap First of thanks to CQ hall of fame Walter (DJ6QT) who let me use his station on Madeira (CT3). After operating with some of the big stations like DR1A and PJ2T it was rally my number one wish to try out some single op effort. Walters QTH has a TH5 beam installed and a arsenal of fibreglass poles and millions of wires on stock. The class to participate was a fast decision, as this is a textbook example for Single Operator All Band (Three-Band Single-Element – formerly known as threeband-wire) My first goals were to capture the 4000 QSO’s I almost made in 2004 as PJ4P and have fun. In this time zone the contest started of course on the lowbands. Did I mention how much I hate the lowbands? Double point’s per QSO is worth it, but I was so fet up after a few hours that I decided to put in a first early break. I’d rather run 180/h on 15/20m than 90/h on the lowbands fighting splatters and QRM for the same amount of points. The next morning was much better. 20m is like 40 in the sunspot minimum, but finally I found some really nice rates on 15m. I stayed on 15m as long as possible and decided to return to 20m when the daylight goes off in Europe. Perfect decision! Just hit 20m and immediately running close to 200/h into stateside. After day one the 4000 Q’s mark felt like a piece of cake, but day two brought me back to the ground. Lots of begging for QSO’s and it was really hard to get higher than 140 Q’s/h. Towards the end of day two I hit a great opening into states side and the fantastic discipline of the US op’s, again saved my day. A little bit of my beloved low bands at the end and the finish line was crossed with well above 4200 Q’s and 16.7 million points. After the dust settled …. There was just one thought: WHAT A FUN WAS THIS!!!!! Equipment used: Yaesu FT-1000 Mark-V (lost and found by the airline) Acom 2000 Linear (thanks’ Walter) TH5 Beam (also know as the weapon of maximum impact) Vertical Wires on 40/80 (always fun to built and a surprise how they work) Heil Quietphone Pro 4 (anty rag chew capsular) Thanks to all who worked and supported me.

First of all Santos CT1DVV was sick the days before the contest and has returned urgently to Portugal, now his is in good shape, we missed you ! A lot of antenna works has been done installing 11 antennas for all band, but the contest weekend was the windest days of the last 3 months and we lost after 4 hours of Contest our low band temporary wire antennas, so the contest was out. Bit disapponted we decided to get only some fun, so a single ops 15m effort was done, just to squeeze the band from this new QTH with the new antennas. Both logs ( D4C 4 hours ) and D44AC 15m multiop will be sended as control log. Hope next time to have more stronger antennas and a sunshine weekend. In the next days more pictures and video will be uploaded at www.d4c.cc Thank's to everyone called us 73 de Fabio I4UFH ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: DA0BCC Class: M/2 HP Total Score = 9,670,232 BAND QSO DUP PFX POINTS AVG ----------------------------------- 160 285 2 47 541 1.90 80 999 13 331 2013 2.02 40 951 13 254 2415 2.54 20 1191 5 356 2535 2.13 15 446 6 154 882 1.98 10 23 0 2 67 2.91 ----------------------------------- TOTAL 3895 39 1144 8453 2.17 =================================== TOTAL SCORE : 9 670 232 Dupes are not included in QSO counts neither avg calculations ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: DA0CA Class: SO(A)AB LP Total Score = 869,528 40 ft vertical + low dipole 80m 73 de Frank DL1R.E.M. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: DF1LON Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 200,928 Just a part time activity on saturday from 12UTC for 10h.

Station: IC-751A+L4B 5/5@31m+19m fixed USA, another 5L@43m to the east. All antennas hard wired parallel. 73 Peter ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: DL2AA Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 1,357,731 I wanted to enjoy the station setup but was not motivated enough to do the entire 36 hours. Instead I decided to get as much sleep as possible and picked those hours that suited me best for operating. That way I could still share the meals with the family and play radio. Everybody was happy! Condx were not great at all. I spent S&P most of the time. To find a good spot to run was almost impossible. Especially on 20m. On 40m it worked but the expected US run would just never happen. I think there are not more than six or seven JA's in the log. I disregarded 80 too much and therefore missed too many easy mults. Highlights: - KH7B and NH6P with decent signals on 20 at 1830z on Sunday. - F5xxx starting to call CQ on my 40m frequency asking for stations who are not in the contest. He was gone after five minutes. Goog god... - G3PYI reminding me on 40 that I am transmitting on USB instead of LSB. I was thankful for the hint but noticed that the time was ripe for a nap (tnx OM). - The power supply that is providing most of the station equipment with power ended in smoke. At least I found a solution to feed the Six Pack and the Stack match with power and could then finish the last hours of the contest.

We could improve our lowband results, but have about 500 QSOs less on 20m, missing mostly USA with rare prefixes (there was a very productive 20m opening last year on Sunday evening). While last year there was at least SOME 15m opening to USA, it didn't happen this year. Just a few on skew path. 40m USA was a complete loss in my eyes: not one single W/VE in the first night, only a weak opening in the second night. Late Sunday it started around 2230z, but never really opened. Big guns were 5/5 on the meter. New to our group was Gerard, PA1TX, who came over on Saturday for a few hours. Everyone else had been operating from here before. We were very happy to receive Teemu (SM0W) again coming in from Stockholm, and Kazu (JK3GAD) from London over "Niederrhein Airport" (NRN), which is only about 10 km away from the station. Amazing that you can fly in at prices cheaper than what I spend in my car driving to the station on the Autobahn... :-) On Friday before the contest we enjoyed a picture show of the recent VP6DX expedition (DL3DXX and DL6FBL were in the team). And here were also most of the members of the upcoming VK9DWX expedition to Willis Island (VK9W). Final decisions about the schedule will be made in one month.

Main plan was M/2 but since we did´t get the team togther i decide on thursday evening (when i get to my QTH in E7 land) to go SOAB! on my way to Bosnia i allmost lost 2 radios (comming from repair) and one AMP on the border. I cross many many times E7 border with my radio equipment without any problems but this time was very very bad, they keep me there for more as 2 hours there and with lot of luck (€) was able to to continue my trip! There was a lot of work on the station before....station was never before setup for SO2R and i needed to repair 160m inv V (was three times on 50m high tower), to put up beverages-only 3 of them (we need to remove 6 beverages after ARRL CW) and to do some improvments in antenna switching and filtering as well. Finaly everything was ready few hours before contest.I had even time for 1,5 hours of sleep before :) ! Contest was great fun.Very good rates and great acitivity. I made few mistakes, to much S&P, to less time spend on 40m (to less 6 points QSO´s there),.... Satrday evning durning the good opening to NA on 20m we had big rain and very high statik what made my run pretty slow. But the bigest problem was after spending allmost whole first night on 80m, staying without electrical power for more as 4 hours 2nd night.Instade operating for 6 points on 80m and 40m during second night i was operating durig sonday morning mosltly EU on 15 and 20...finaly missing some QSO´s points (in compare to others nostly on 40m).

I was thinking that 15m. will be a good option for me this time: and I'm satisfied with the result. With this fair conditions, I hope to find more people on the band, but, anyway, It was funny. Nice to log some USA stations till the contest end. Thanks everybody for calling. 73 de Jose ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: EA5KV Class: SOSB20 HP Total Score = 2,379,902 THANKS FOR ALL CALL MY. see you in the next contest. EA5KV Victor. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: EA8OM Class: SO(A)AB LP Total Score = 774,235 Due to strong winds during contest 40m dipole was distroyed. The internet (cluster) was not available most of the time. Everything else was ok! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: EE2W Class: M/S HP Total Score = 9,373,136 Thanks to all..!!! See you on WPX CW..! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: EH8A Class: M/S HP Total Score = 3,328,796 This is our claimed score during our very fun participation in this contest. Our participation it's mainly in 15 and 20 meters and some QSOs in 10 and 40 meters, but very poor.- TNX to my very good friend Peter EC8ADW, I can to be on the air again for to contact many contest friends this week end. thanks you to all for the QSOs, we are very happy and fun during the contest. 73 friends ! from EA8AUW & EC8ADW as EH8A this time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: ES90C Class: M/2 HP Total Score = 14,284,524 A lot of problems in the beginning this time. Band decoders burned down due to a short circuit and some other unexpected failures so first 10 hours was heavy soldering and not very efficient operating. Anyhow, interesting contest despite non-existant propagation. Almost no NA on any other bands then 20m. We can only imagine the amount of ES9CS, ES9ZS and similar calls in other logs, it was not easy:) Still, such a call helps as the QSO count shows!:) No stations ever heard on 10m and 15m was open mostly only to Asia. Funny moment was being spotted on 80m as ES9OC at the end of the contest. That brought immidiate big gun pile up who refused to listen to the actual callsign and demanded QSO. Obviously they did not notice having O insted of 0 on their callsign field. So I had no other choice as to work following dupes: DL0BRI, S52AW, OL7R, HA1YI, YO5PEZ, EE2W, SV1EBV, TC3EC, SX3Z, DL0WW and some others. Congratulations to 9A7A who are in different world from us:) We are happy to exceed UU7J score and sorry to hear about their problems. Any other M/2 scores coming up? Let's try again in WPX CW and hope for better propagation then! Find our continents, rate sheet and prefixes below. 73 Tonno ES5TV ES90C By band - All modes QSOs (with dupes) - By time !

Hard work, with the anticipated good run to North America (and the endless multipliers) on the LF bands not materialising until late on Sunday evening. The single QSO on 10m was an Italian who was 20 over nine and the only signal on the entire band. We did not attempt 160m, because of the noise and the aerial was too low. The tower was not wound up because of the gale force winds. The nine contacts on the band took out the wireless router, which refused to re-boot for 30 minutes. Will need to re-engineer the 160m aerial for future operations. (Note for next SSB contest - need to invest in another Microham keyer so that both stations have CQ machines !)

Flew to 5B4 on the Sunday on business but forgot antenna centre and power lead for ham radio! Yeah I know, what a waste but hey, the weather was warm and the Keo beer was cold - perfect combination. Conditions: - USA/Canada; unusually poor for me across the bands. - S America; made a good few S American Qs. - Far East; Plenty heard but unable to break the pile-ups. - Oceania; Nothing heard except for a squeak from VK6. - Africa; ok but huge pile-ups. - Heathrow Airport Terminal 5; never never never never never again.

Should have a 160m antenna for the CW leg, but 160m is not really much use in this contest anyway if other bands are good. Congrats to Andy M6T and ohers for great scores - scores rise exponentially in this contest and GM7V never quite got onto the steeply-rising part of the curve. Disappointing to hear some stations (e.g. ZD7X, DP9Z) asking to be spotted on the DX Cluster - when I checked back 10 minutes later, ZD7X had made 50 more QSOs.

Only a few SA on 10m so I did only a second radio QSO that band. 20M was OK but To find a clear freq to CQ, was incredibly tough sometimes. Nice US runs mainly on saturday evening. I think I lost some good "sixpointers" on 40M, the second night when I got up a bit late from my rest. Thanks the QSOs! 73!

I hoped to reach at least 2000 qso and 4 Million points. Terrible 20m where everybody was there. Our club station need urgent maintenance, 40m antenna does not work like some time ago; IC765 radio is becoming older and older and selectivity is quite less than adequate for today 20m crowded band.

Thanks to all the stations that I have heard in this contest, and to my IC8 friends. I'm sorry but I know that there were some stations who heard me well, but I cannot listen to all because of the strong QRN due to strong Auroral event and the typical QRM of the contest. Also enjoyed to listen some friends and some italian stations (that are also mults for me). Never tried the Top Band and enjoyed a lot with a poor antenna.

However, it went up to K=4, and conditions were worse than last year. It was 70Stn/H though was the maximum. The condition of especially 21Mhz got depressed. The search with Wintest and MK2R was correct selections. Last year's own score was exceeded. It is already an operation of endurance for a while. I was called in CO and TI by 7Mhz when it was good. The op time was 31h. I had to try a little more at night.

I started out the first half or so as SOLP but found I had to get the amp fired up to do anything in this.

Seemed to come and go all weekend. Glad to see a string of JA's Sunday evening. Had to lose some time Saturday for funeral of SK (W5DDP rip). As seems to be the pattern for contest weekends in TX/LA, more lightning storms came through bringing low band noise and forced early shutdown Sat night. Overall. it was a fun contest. Thank you to all who stopped by. See you in Dayton! 73! Mark, K5ER ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: K5TR Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 4,207,439 Another fun WPX. This contest was very much like last years contest for me from a propagation standpoint but if anything 15 meters was even worse. Without 15 meters I just do not work much DX from this location. 40 and 20 meters just do not produce much runable DX for me - maybe if I had some bigger antennas on 20 or if I was closer to Europe or something. I was sure that 15 meters was going to bust wide open to Europe on Sunday - and it did get very close but it just did not quite make it. There was an hour or two where the EA and CT stations were quite strong but there were not many on and the opening did not extend into the rest of Europe. For the first time I really tried to operate this contest by watching the points per QSO rate and not just the QSO rate. As a result I improved my points per QSO average over last year. I operated the first 11.5 hours before taking an off-time.4 I did have some fun on 40 meters working quite a few VK/ZL stations. Overall the low bands were very good - 80 meters sounded great on Saturday night but the static made it difficult going but the signals were very good. And now for all the numbers .........................

Could only here west of the Miss.river. Got in abt 2.5 hrs before having to quit because of the local thunder storms. Saturday was better but could only work a hand full of Eu. Sunday much better. Had a few runs into Eu, loads of south, centeral americans. I think I got most of carib. Condx were so good EU was causing qrm on freqs close by. I kept getting pushed up in the band. Saturday I couldn't find any EU and Sunday I couldn't get rid of them. CU Lloyd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: K6CSL Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 12,480 Try as I might, the conditions were poor for LP and wire antennas. It was nice to hear lots of stations, including DX, appearing in the General portion of 40. Unfortunately the same was not true of 80. I did hear N6AJR above 3850, but apparently he didn't hear my anemic signal. The only station I even heard on 160 was NR6O who apparently spent a lot of time there. The only signals I heard on 10 were NR6O, and 2 Argentina stations. Boy there were sure a lot of Hula stations on, which was nice to here. Last year I think I only found 2. Well, maybe the conditions will be a little better for CW in May. 73's to all, and thanks to all those who worked me. Bert, K6CSL. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: K6GEP Class: SO(A)AB LP Total Score = 57,960 I think I probably missed the best hour on 15m this weekend by missing the first hour of the contest. Bands seemed generally poor this weekend. I think the best DX was Friday night. Didn't work any Europe or Africa (other than D44), and only 3 JA's. I worked 2 band fillers - YJ8 on 15 and 8R1K on 40. Calls to not confuse: VE6SV and VE7SV. My biggest disappointment of the contest was when I woke up early this morning to work DX on 40, and none of the DX in the Pacific and Asia was listening up!

QRM was intense throughout and the HC4 element did what Bob Heil said it would, despite operating QRP. Thanks to all for their patience. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: KC3R Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 7,065,933 Tried a little bit different strategy this year but it's hard to tell if it worked. Practically the same number of contacts, slightly bigger mult and 0.5M more than the last year. It might be due to other things though. Got really tired on Sunday evening and left 20 too early, although there was still something left just above the bottom. Didn't use the second radio much. Most of the time needed both of my ears to sort out the pieces of calls and numbers getting through the QRM. Thanks to everyone who called, your patience is deeply appreciated ! Congratulations to K4ZW for the fantastic effort ! Watch out for K1ZM though, he had 14.150 both days :) My sincere thanks to WA3FET for letting me use his station again. 73, Alex LZ4AX -------------- Q S O R a t e S u m m a r y -------------- Hour 160 80 40 20 15 10 Total Pct ------------------------------------------------------------- 0000 0 0 69 23 0 0 92 3.4 0100 0 10 53 12 0 0 75 2.8 0200 0 73 0 0 0 0 73 2.7 0300 0 78 0 0 0 0 78 2.9 0400 0 49 9 0 0 0 58 2.1 0500 0 6 0 0 0 0 6 0.2 0600 0 7 14 0 0 0 21 0.8 0700 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.0 0800 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.0 0900 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.0 1000 0 0 2 0 0 0 2 0.1 1100 0 0 3 59 0 0 62 2.3 1200 0 0 0 88 0 0 88 3.2 1300 0 0 0 96 0 0 96 3.5 1400 0 0 0 83 0 0 83 3.1 1500 0 0 0 66 4 0 70 2.6 1600 0 0 0 95 0 0 95 3.5 1700 0 0 0 82 1 0 83 3.1 1800 0 0 0 36 24 0 60 2.2 1900 0 0 0 69 0 0 69 2.5 2000 0 0 0 92 0 0 92 3.4 2100 0 0 0 87 0 0 87 3.2 2200 0 0 0 97 4 0 101 3.7 2300 0 0 43 41 0 0 84 3.1 0000 0 0 96 0 0 0 96 3.5 0100 0 98 0 0 0 0 98 3.6 0200 0 78 0 0 0 0 78 2.9 0300 0 41 7 0 0 0 48 1.8 0400 0 42 1 0 0 0 43 1.6 0500 0 40 10 0 0 0 50 1.8 0600 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.0 0700 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.0 0800 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.0 0900 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.0 1000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.0 1100 0 0 0 33 0 0 33 1.2 1200 0 0 0 80 0 0 80 2.9 1300 0 0 0 77 0 0 77 2.8 1400 0 0 0 58 0 0 58 2.1 1500 0 0 0 53 0 0 53 1.9 1600 0 0 0 0 5 0 5 0.2 1700 0 0 0 39 19 0 58 2.1 1800 0 0 0 66 1 0 67 2.5 1900 0 0 0 72 1 0 73 2.7 2000 0 0 0 76 6 0 82 3.0 2100 0 0 5 65 0 0 70 2.6 2200 0 0 59 21 0 0 80 2.9 2300 0 0 65 18 0 0 83 3.1 ------------------------------------------------------ Total 0 522 437 1684 65 0 2708 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: KD0S Class: M/S HP Total Score = 398,762 This was a training session for a couple new operators. Thanks to everyone for their patience as they were learning. Since I had lots of time with the other operators here I tried packet spots in Writelog for the first time. I can see how useful it would be in contesting as it worked very well. I even had to go work K4FX at the end so I could see our station spotted. Must have been some computer problems happening there. We have all been there. Bands seemed in very good condition this time but we had no activity on 10 meters with 15 being open for just a short time both days. It was good to hear everyone on as the activity was great! 73 KD0S ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: KD2KW Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 2,600 First attempt to get involved with this contest due to poor antenna situation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: KD4D Class: M/2 HP Total Score = 11,417,592 As usual, thanks to John Evans, N3HBX, for letting us invade the "farm" for the weekend. He had everything working before the start of the contest...amazing. As of Saturday morning, we hadn't broken anything either. Well, THAT was a long weekend! We had one tower start rotating on its own but managed to stop it before it caused much damage. This was late during the day Saturday and was the 20 meter tower so it didn't hurt us too much. John repaired it Sunday morning! The highlights for me were working my first YJ8 (Thanks, YJ8TZ) on 40 after our sunrise, a 105 hour on 40 SSB, and getting the last ten rate over 220 on 40 for a few minutes on Saturday evening! 40 was very good for a few hours around sunset on Saturday. We stuck to our strategy of TRYING to run Europe on the low bands to maximize our six point QSO's, probably sacrificing a few too many USA one-pointers. 15 never really opened so we spent most of the day Saturday and Sunday running US and Canadian stations. I'm pleased to have scored about what we did last year since I think conditions were a bit worse. Congratulations to NQ4I for an AMAZING QSO total on 20 meters. See you in the CW contest.

Although the K and the A index were high conditions out in KH6 were really great. This was the first contest with all the KT36XAs rotating and I just finished getting the last rotor up and working a day before the contest. I really didn't know what the propogation would be like since the antennas had been fixed more or less to the mainland since I put them up. The contest started with a bang and by 0200Z I had around 500 QSOs. Around sunset the first night the fun began with strong Asians and some Europeans and Mideast coming through. Saturday began with huge piles of W's and VEs with a smattering of VK/ZL and an occasional Oceanic goodie. By the sunset I had attained my goal of breaking the Oceanic record of 6.5M. Then the fun began again. As others have noted, conditions on Saturday night were great. Many Asians and lots of Europeans were logged on their respective sunrises as well as the usual bundles of JAs and I worked them until 11:30 PM local time Sunday morning began with runs of W/K, and then a BIG opening into Europe which lasted for about two hours. There was only one hour that really stunk...around 1900 or 2000 the second day. Signals really got really weak and there was a huge hiss across the whole band, resulting in about a 35 hour. Having the W/K stations count for three points is a big change for me after suffering through one pointers for years. I like it! One interesting note....an XU7 must have been spotted above me since I heard this huge racket up around 14229 while I was on 14226. How do I know it was an XU7? Several stations called me blindly thinking I was the XU7. Ah, the joys of the spotting clusters! A big mahalo for all the spots and the QSOs. See you in the FQP! Bill K4XS/KH7XS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: KI4GUO Class: M/S HP Total Score = 450,410 We operated "multi-op single-family." KI4GUO is my daughter and KI4ZWQ is my XYL. All of us contributed to the effort and had lots of fun. This was the first time that KI4GUO and KI4ZWQ had over 200 Qs each in a contest. The biggest problem with their growing interest in contesting is that I now have to "share my toys" with them! ;-) Jordan also insists that we use her callsign so we are limited to the General segments of the band. We won't win any awards for our score but I couldn't be more excited about my daughter's and XYL's involvement and effort this weekend.

I figured if I was going to rearrange the station I might as well operate all 3. The 40 meter beam at my home station is still out of commission and since Steve has bigger hardware and I spend so much time there helping to put the place together, it seemed like the way to go. This weekend was a real roller coaster ride. Friday night was an absolute disaster. I couldn't get any runs going on any band, not even to the US. Also, I thought I had an Orion go bad but when I replaced it with another and the same thing happened, I quickly discovered it was operator error. Going into Saturday morning, after 6 hours of operating, I had a paltry 300 QSO's and a major hole to dig out of. Some of the guys stopped out at the farm Saturday morning and with the poor conditions on 20, I was literally a QSO or two from walking away from the radio and hanging with them. After grinding through ARRL SSB and Russian DX, I didn't think I had it in me to do this again. I don't know why, but I hung with it. The terrific opening on 20 to JA and later some nice runs to Europe on 40 & 80 got me focused again. By Sunday morning I had too much time invested so I figured I was in for the haul. So in the end this turned out much better than I expected. But, I've had my fill of contesting for a few months.

Maybe by the time the CW WPX gets here we will have a sunspot or two and we can operate something other than 20 meters. With conditions like they are this turns into a domestic contest for me.

We were hoping to get some use out of 20m at the start but it just didn't work out. Hopefully we're at the bottom and on the way back up now. Repairs were completed on the Cushcraft 40 before the contest. The lugs that make up the feedpoint had both broken off. This was something I found last November when I went down for SS SSB. I didn't feel comfortable fixing it by myself in November, so the repair was left to this trip. This year we experimented with a receive antenna for 40m. The antenna consists of two 40m hamsticks phased to provide a null towards EU. This helped with the EU broadcast QRM. Unfortunately we had no receive antenna for 80m. There was a lot of noise on 80m all weekend, so we didn't spend much time there. We heard some southern signals on 10m but not enough to make it worth spending 10 minutes on the band. Despite the poor conditions and points rule penalty of the QTH, it's still a good time. Thanks for all the QSO's (QSL via AI4U). 73's Tim, K9TM Dave, K8CC ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: KR1ST Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 25,380 Rig: IC-756ProIII Pwr: 100 Watts Ant: 20-15-10: three remotely switched 20m doublets in triangle configuration 40: 40m doublet and 80m inverted V 80: 80m inverted V + small 80m coax loop RX antenna with preamp 160: inverted L + small 160m coax loop RX antenna with preamp I didn't get a chance to really play in this contest as I would have liked to.

Dan showed me why he wins this contest year after year on 20 meters. Chatting with Tim, KY5R last week I told him I was going to try to see how close I could get to W7WA. Well, I made it to about Mississippi from northwest Florida in geographic terms as far as how bad I did in comparison to Dan. I'm sure others beat me as well. Conditions here in the armpit of Alabama (25 miles north of Pensacola, Florida) were strange to say the least. The band teased me with a few brief openings to EU and JA, but mostly was just a pit of QRM. Nice to work Randy, K5ZD from his QTH and then again /OE within 24 hours as he was on a business trip. The contest would have been miserable, but I rented an 80 foot lift for the weekend and put a 204BA on the top section of tower in the lift which played much better than my tri-bander at 40 feet. I couldn't hear most of the Europeans calling on the tri-bander at all. The tri-bander did function as a west and south antenna quite well. 73, Jay N4OX ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: KS1Y Class: SO(A)AB LP Total Score = 234,632 ICOM 756 PRO 2 6L15M MONO 5L20M MONO 80M VERT AND DIPOLE + BEVERAGES 160m VERT + BEVERAGES ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: KS9K Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 1,147,573 As KQ2M likes to say, WPX is a contest all about strategy. Of course, the clever general must examine the capability of his troops, equipment, and location, as well well as those of his enemy to come up with a winning strategy. This is true whether one is battling on the world stage with other super powers (read 1500 watts) or in a more localized arena in a regional squabble (read 100 watts versus other USA stations). With this contest coming exactly 28 days after the ARRL DX SSB contest, I expected conditions to be similar to those prevailing that dismal weekend. However, since the DX stations could work anyone, not just US/VE stations, I knew that I couldn't count on my low power station working 28 different DX countries on 160 as I did 4 weeks ago, but I hoped to pick up a little slack by picking up some VE 4 pointers there. (Normally, the 160 and 80 meter antennas are removed following the ARRL phone contest but with the really poor conditions I left them up a month longer.) I hoped that 10 would pick up a little, but never heard a signal here although WD5K ended up with 52 ten meter QSOs. I heard one EU Sunday afternoon on 15 beaming SE but no contact resulted. From the center of the country it is hard to beam in a direction which picks up both DX and domestic QSOs. Since this contest originated as a DX contest with no points for domestic QSOs, I decided to try to favor the DX stations whenever possible, since 30 DX contacts would equal 90 USA contacts. Of course, the USA has lots of prefixes nowdays, so when I'd worked all of the DX available to my S&P efforst, I would try to find some USA guys to work. I ended with about 198 different USA prefixes in the log. I seem to have been moderately successful with this DX first strategy. Early returns show AC0W (1234Qs x 452 prefix) and WD5K (1125Qs and 498 prefixes) made more QSOs but ended with lower scores than my 1007Qs x 497 prefixes made.

Congrats to K5TR and NN5J (N5DX) for outstanding efforts and results. W5WMU was in there as well. I haven't seen Pat's score but it's cerain he did well. I'm a bit humbled, as I worked hard but it just doesn't look good on the scoreboard. The WX report for here was iffy, with storms forecasted for Saturday overnight. In fact WM5R got knocked off the air and out of the contest at W5KFT from a storm fifty miles to my NW, but all we got was QRN Saturday overnight. I had hoped to come within 5% of K5TR, who I figured would win the "W5-W0 WRTC region" but came out well below the cutoff point for being able to salvage any qualifying score for WRTC. This weekend, along with the RDXC two weeks ago when I lost an amplifier and was limited to SO1R for the most part, both are discouraging. Lots of hard work. But they were contests, and I learned some things. For some reason, my K1EA DVP card would not accept the usual voice recordings, cutting them of at one or two seconds. I finally got two QSL Messages" to sort-of work. The usual one said "Thanks" and I got the F6 key (Quick QSL) to accept "Thanks Kilo Tango Five Tango" spoken really fast. I got a CQ message to work. So I limped through the contest with three barely decent recordings plus the call sign. I had to speak fast and didn't feel the recorded call sign had the fullest clarity. To do well and have fun from this far west and south (Austin, Texas area) at the solar cycle minimum, we need for 15 meters to open to EU and JA. If it does, and does not to our north, we can do very well. In this contest, it did not. We got no JAs on 15 and only a smattering of extreme southern EU. The EU stations came in at 90 degrees and not the direct path for me. One JA station, JH7XKO, called me on 15 but he was pee weak and I could never get the number and scrubbed the QSO. he was "peaking," if that word can be used, at 270 degrees. We can get only the loud EU stations on 20, and it's very hard to run EU on 20 meters. We can not run EU on 40 meters. We can run JAs pretty well on 40 meters CW and SSB but the JAs seemed to boycott this contest. 40 meters was excellent to Asia and the Pacific but all those stations seemed content to stay down below 7100 and work one another. Only a few called CQ and listened up, or called me split frequency. Fortunately there were some VKs on 15 and 40, and that was a nice group of QSOs at times. Most were right at the noise level for me. K5TR called today and we compared notes briefly. He did a great job and managed points this time, rather than QSO quantity. Of course he had a whole lot of QSOs as well. But he is right. If I ever do a WPX again, and right now I don't want to hear anything about any contest for a long time, I'll plan strategy around points. One can have a better hour in the middle of the night working 15 or 20 six pointers than running Ws on 40 meters or 20 meters in the afternoon or evening at one point per contact. But I had the flu the week before the contest, and got pretty tired and really needed to take an off time to sleep. Oh well. Excuses, excuses. Forgetaboutit! TR does SO2R well on SSB as well as CW. I have the CW SO2R down pretty pat, but have a lot to learn about SSB SO2R, On Sunday, I felt I was doing somewhat better, but still am an SO2R novice on phone. Thanks very much to Larry, K5OT, for use of his nice KJ5J call sign.

A special thanks to Bob LU2FA for including me on the team, this is was my first WPX in a M/S. I have fun, really!... 160 meters was closed. On 80 and 40 have much QRM and QRN, due to the storm in the zone, all the weekend. Against which all we thought 20 and 10 meters were closed, opposite thing to which happened in the previous days. 15 was the more stable one, opened at any moment and with very strong signals. Luckily we have obtained a good number of multipliers, beyond of have some problems: A power supply and two TS-850S have died. We wasted long time because the line tension was very high. Sunday in the morning was on 270 Volts, against 220 of the normal thing. Anyway, we have amused, doing what as much we like. See you in the next contest!.

Setup in weather that was wet, cold and windy (gusts to 90 km/h) - certainly too windy to riase either of the 2 towers which had multiple antennas on. Thankfully about 5pm Friday the wind dropped and I was able to get both those towers up and guyed off and before complete darkness came got the 15m one up to 80% height. I operated 0000-0622, 1140-0318, 0505-0619, 0720-0742, 1046-1106, 1206-2359. The short periods of on-time on the second day were an attempt to try and capture some additional mults from areas that might have got ignored otherwise, but were generally a raging disaster where basic scoring rates were nowhere near high enough so I canned them pretty quickly. Was a bad choice to have swapped some LF night-time operating time for them. While tired, I also screwed up my off-time calculations slightly and with the 1 hour minimum off-time rule ended up 5 minutes short of 36 hours operating time. The advantage of a 36 hour format over the 48 hour format of CQWW isn't that you get more sleep though - it just gives you more time to fix tings that break. During the off time on Saturday I dropped the TH5/402 tower to try and fix an intermittent problem with the 402. Found an open circuit on the loading coil on the other side of the reflector (second one of the weekend), but quite badly corroded. Thought that I had fixed it OK, but unfortunately the problem returned to haunt me. This isn't a good contest to try and be competitive on 40m with a rotary dipole! On Sunday I had an amplifier in pieces during one of the off-times! Overall I thought that conditions were about as good as could be expected at this point in the cycle - certainly better than in the Russian DX Contest, although I didn't hear a signal on 10 all weekend (didn't look much though!), 15 was very poor with no US opening (other than NQ4I on scatter), very little to Asia (though Steve 9M8Z was very loud Sunday) and, just as reported by DR1A, no USA opening at all night 1 on 40m, and a marginal one on night #2. I therefore spent a lot of time on 80m and 20m! I had some awful periods on 20m where I just got run off my frequencies, including a 42 hour at 1700 on Sunday, but there were also some pretty decent hours to be had there. This was my second serious outing with Win-Test - better - but I still don't like all of it as well as TR and I found a number of irritating bugs which I'll raise on the Win-Test reflector - however having full control of headphone switching for SO2R from the keyboard and the automation of this into scenarios is very useful, and ultimately, DOS is dead.... Thanks to everyone for the QSOs. Thanks to Bob, G4BAH for the use of the station again, and to Julie for letting me out to play and looking after our daughter all weekend twice in a month!

Lots of S&P and handing out mults, with a few runs for fun. It was my impression that this contest had more "friendly" operation than some other recent contests. Many thanks to WU3A (BIG signal!) for stopping CQing briefly to let me work KH7B under him on the same frequency - great stuff!

Actually it works well on all bands but is optimal on 20 right now. Besides, I still have no antennas for the low bands. Rectifying that SOON. 513 QSOs, is OK for now, hoping to improve. I worked mostly DX as well on 20, mostly EU. Also tried livescores application and enjoyed a real time "race to the finish." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: N2WN Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 6,678 Just figuring out the new K3 and SSB operating (again). Like the rig so far and thought the contest was quite leisurely in pace. The QRM situation is different than on CW, more of a challenge for a little guy it appears. 15 was the most enjoyable band, nice DX, well spaced. Have much to learn! 73, Julius n2wn ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: N4KG Class: SO(A)AB HP Total Score = 211,177 Phone - UGH! High Band Condx - YUCK ! What's with so many South American stations CQing in my face on the high bands? Most worked later with better signals. Weird. Low Band Conditions - "Interesting" Worked several Middle Eastern Stations on 75 and 40M, including C4I, H22H, P33W, and 9K2HN. Listened (on the speaker) to 9K2HN call several unanswered CQ's after my QSO on 75M! Worked C4N on 40M with one call, barefoot, at end of the contest (2350Z). Most QSO's with DX using Low Power when it worked, AMP when needed. NO CQ's, very few USA Q's. AO8A worked on 5 Bands (missed 10M) Following 13 stations worked on 4 Bands: 5D5A 8P1A 8R1K CQ95F FG/OM3LA FY5FY P40A P49Y PJ2T TO5A (FM) TO6T (FG) V48M YW4M Another 22 stations worked on 3 Bands (mostly from SA / NA).

HRO Atlanta) for letting me use his call in this one. First day was a mess...but Saturday night and all day Sunday made up for it. Score is way down from last year due to working lots of one point Q's while the bands were not good. More Q's this year by 65 but mults down by 41 and score down by over 200,000 points.. Surprises included T77NM, A35RK and YJ8TZ among others that called in. Two DXp stations TO5RZ and 5T5DC called which was great.. Fun keeping up with my buddy Charlie, NF4A, who's up and running again from his new home. See you in the WPX CW - using WT4PF in the cw test this year. It worked for me last year in the SSB test.

I need a dual receive radio! I figured that others might hate it as well, which might lower the competition and would increase my chances. It was fun running Europeans Sunday AM. Had many calling that I could not hear well. Need that Beam! Well, it WAS fun, until the neighbors were banging on the door, explaining in Spanish, that I was getting into their new "Home Theatre in a Box!" I went to look at it. It was a "Made in China" "White Van" product that wasn't FCC Type accepted. Try as I could, I could not get it accross, that the problem was in their unit, since my system is much closer to the antenna, and had no problems! I shut down the amp and went to S&P. I felt that I could have gone well over a million points without the intteruption and could have made a full time effort. Interesting moment: At 18 minutes into the contest I work, NJ4M (K1TO), our fearless leader and he gives me a serial# of 070! I was at 013 and NQ4I gave me 047 next! Whew! Guess I should not have been wasting time S&Ping Europeans! They were too busy working each other. All said and done, it was fun! I will have the RFI problem licked before the next one!

A windstorm had rendered my SteppIR antenna temporarily inoperable, so I took my rig over to his QTH and used his antennas, which worked well. Thanks to him for the use of his station. I had a good time in this contest despite working mostly 1-point contacts and having work responsibilities which kept me from operating the full 36 hours. Surely the sunspot numbers shall rise again! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: N6AA Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 1,049,850 In what appears to be a successful attempt to dispel rumors of my sanity, spent quite a bit of time in the WPX phone contest this weekend. Had power line noise toward Europe, the continent where every contact seems to be a new multiplier. Fortunately, there was almost no propagation to there this weekend. Had 3 Eu QSOs Saturday morning on 20. On Sunday fought for 16 more. It took about 50 repeats (not an exaggeration) of my serial number to get it across to a Hungarian station, but he actually persisted until he had it correct. When I reached my objective of 1 million claimed points on Sunday morning, couldn't take it any more, turned off the radios, and went away. Returned for the last 20 minutes. It's still enjoyable to say hello to old friends and meet new ones. Thanks for the contacts.

That was spread over a 4 hour window. I was rearranging my shack per XYL directive and so I could not focus a lot of time. I did catch a few easy ones though. The three very short 15 minute stints were a good break while I was "resting" from all the manual labor. Charging Forward Rick "The Rhino" N6RNO @ Tehama for California QSO Party, October 4-5 2008. Where will you be? www.cqp.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: N6WG Class: SOAB QRP Total Score = 44,088 This outing was a real challenge. I had hoped from some help from the few sunspots that have shown up, but it was not to be. The whole weekend was a struggle for QSOs that in the past I have made easily. Just brings home how much we depend on good propagation conditions for any kind of useful score. In spite of poor conditions, at least for me, I added one new country to my bag, CN2R in Morocco. On the other hand, the expected opening to JA never occurred, so I wound up with only two JA calls in my log. Friday night was my most productive period, as I managed at least 10 QSOs every hour for the first 7 hours. Then I went QRT for some sleep. Got up early Saturday morning and proved to myself that the early hours are not productive, so slept in Sunday morning. After working up my score, I was happy to find I doubled my score from last year almost exactly, 44088 vs 22442 points. I only managed 30 hours in the chair, because I had to take some unplanned breaks along the way. Besides the poor propagation conditions, my other complaint was the number of stations with seriously over-processed audio. Some were so badly distorted that I didn't waste time trying to understand them but just moved on to seek other QSOs. I'm just glad this one is over. Now we can get back to cw contesting :-) My thanks to all those patient souls who stuck with me through many repeats until we completed our QSOs successfully. 73, Bob N6WG The Little Station with Attitude ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: N6XT Class: SO(A)AB HP Total Score = 1,090,430 It was my 1st time using HP in this contest.

Made more points for the club than I thought I would. Completed both goals: 1)Make one QSO on each band; 2)Get more than 100K points (kept revising this one upward all Sunday afternoon). See you in the WPX CW, when I'll be using my new K3 I hope. 73 Gary, N7IR ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: NA0CW Class: SOAB QRP Total Score = 139,590 QRP - All Band _____________________________________________ Rig: Elecraft K-2 with output set to 5 Watts Antennas: 3 el SteppIR up 32 feet for 10-15-20 HF-2V vertical for 40-80 _____________________________________________ Conditions were not good. I was never able to work a European station and only worked one African station: D44AC. I decided to use a club call in this contest so I could give out a few "new prefixes". The call was NA0CW and it was issued only a few weeks ago. As a result it was not in the data base, ...but it should be in the future! Many ops thanked me for a new one even very late in the contest, and that was great! Murphy struck early in the contest. After operating about half an hour, I looked at the country columns and point columns and realized it was full of garbage. I decided to stop and troubleshoot it on the spot instead of hoping I could work it out afterwards. I was amazed to find that somehow the new download updates had been corrupted. When I downloaded again everything worked perfectly, including the Qs already logged. I lost only one hour doing this ....WHEW!!!! Conditions were poor as everyone knows. From my QTH here on the West Coast, I never got into Europe, and had only one Q with Africa. Japan no longer has the contest activity it used to have, so it is impossible to compete when you lose all the European multipliers. I only had 11 JA stations in my log. In my best 2 or 3 hours I had 14 or 15 Qs. But I had one hour with zero Qs, and many with four or five. 43% of my Q total was with USA stations, and I had trouble working a lot of those. It was a struggle! My best Q was with YJ8TZ with only 20 minutes left in the contest. I also worked A35RK, V7, KH2, and KH0. Notice that they were all in the Pacific! I worked a total of 42 countries in this contest. In the ARRL a few weeks ago I worked 40. At the top of the cycle I can work about 85 to 90 or so. Despite all the difficulties, I love DX contesting at the QRP levels. Even at the bottom of the cycle it is a thrill, whether from my very modest home station or from Keko's big station at TI5N. I'm 68 years old and hope I can keep at it through this next cycle! After a real struggle to complete a contest QSO, the other op will sometimes thank me for MY patience. If he could hear me well enough, I would like to thank him profusely for HIS patience in completing the QSO which probably means more to me than to him! 73, and thanks for listening for my weak sigs! ...Bill W8QZA - NA0CW ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: NC4KW Class: SO(A)AB HP Total Score = 139,528 I didn't have time to really get serious so just stopped by the radio now and then to give out a few S/P Qs.

There were several that I could not copy through my S5 noise so my apologies to all who tried. Great participation by VK and ZL stations, best I have heard in many years. Worked several VK "Foundation" class stations. Worked two JA's on scatter and V73PX was in for about an hour on direct path.

Thunderstorms were present for at least 30% of my operating time, including both openings to JA and VK on 40 meters. To top it off I came down with some kind of bug that has now passed its way from my son, to me, to my wife, and has now infected my daughter. The sickness only lasted a day, but unfortunately it began Saturday night and I didn't fully recover until the contest was completed. I would have quite, if it weren't for the possibility of accumulating some WRTC points. All of this resulted in 4.5 hours of missed operating time. In addition, at least 6 of my hours of operating were during extreme thunderstorms. Without beverages, it would have been impossible to copy any calls. But as my basketball coach used to say, "Excuses are like arm pits, they all stink." All of this aside, the contest was ok. Great opening to Europe on 20 Saturday afternoon and a decent opening on Sunday. Part of the problem on Sunday was an inability to find a good frequency. One time, a couple of stations in England called in and said there was heavy QRM on my frequency from WE3C. I must have been skipping over him because I couldn't even hear him. Needless to say, I moved immediately. The pileup on Saturday was so big that I asked several stations to confirm they were calling NN5J out of concern that someone was underneath me. Thankfully, they all confirmed the QSO with me. Two single op contests in the last two weeks are usually my quota for a year. I'm ready to give the radio a rest and build some antennas! I'll be on for the CW part, and am looking forward to working a lot of EU and JA on 40 meters. 73 Kevin, N5DX ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: NQ2F Class: M/S HP Total Score = 4,214,559 A great time had by all.

On Saturday afternoon, there were rainstorms in the area and QRN was bad on the low bands that night. 20M and up closed tight at night except for some VK/ZL on 20M. 15M saw only a few Eu QSOs on Sat and not too many more on Sun, mostly on the East skew path. We heard and called many Europeans on 15 who did not hear us. On 15, we worked southern and western Europe only. Only JA on 15 was JA3YBK on Sat afternoon on the skew path to VK. Most DX on 10M was SA, CA, and Caribbean. Hard to work other US stations on 15 and 10 with little or no Es propagation. Thanks for all the QSOs, particularly for those resulting from QSYs from band to band. 73, John, K4BAI For the NQ4I Team. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: NR3X Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 85,434 Made a mad dash at the end for fun. 40 SSB was a ball the last hour for me with a mixed bag run of VE/US and scattered Europeans. 73, Nate/N4YDU ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: NR5M Class: SOSB15 HP Total Score = 410,872 Fun to be back after a 15 year absence. Station is a work in process and I had limited choices (10m or 15m -- not much of a choice considering the spots). Thanks to John, W2GD, Don, K4ZA, and Ken, KZ5KG for getting me back on the air. Hope to be QRV for multi-multi by fall. George, NR5M ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: NR6O Class: M/M HP Total Score = 7,679,480 Despite lack of propagation on the high bands, our team exceeded last year's score by nearly 30%. QSOs on all bands were better than 2007, and new station QSO records for this contest (about our 20th year) were set on 160, 80 and 40m. We had some minor networking problems, but packet on VE7CC was solid. The wind Saturday night produced some arcing on the 160m elevated radials and an 80m loop. The 160 arc was like an emergency flare, easy to find at night! On 160m some precip static on Friday night, and thunderstorm QRN on Saturday made copy difficult. All of our regular team were here for this one, plus a newcomer to contesting, K6IAM. Licensed about one year (extra class), Iain had never operated a contest before. After an hour of listening to N6RO on a second headset on 40m, he took over the rig and produced hours of 122 and 126! He did much of the 40m operating all weekend, including daytime trolling. Our 40m # is 300 Qs higher than any previous total. We have declared K6IAM a 'natural' contester! Congrats to NQ4I and crew, and the other M-M teams. Here's the approximate continental breakdown. We on the west coast are starting to forget what Europeans sound like! 160 80 40 20 15 10 ALL percent North America SSB 266 706 1193 859 237 53 3314 74.0 South America SSB 1 10 34 64 102 37 248 5.5 Europe SSB 0 0 1 117 0 0 118 2.6 Asia SSB 1 79 107 194 91 0 472 10.5 Africa SSB 0 5 2 9 1 0 17 0.4 Oceania SSB 2 32 70 70 99 37 310 6.9 Five stations: Three FT1000mp, Orion, K3.

Made it really noisy for us before we had to shut down....no better once the threat had passed. So with two hours of down time and a total of 4 hours of seriously high noise levels on the low bands there is no telling how many qsos and additional mults might have made it into the log.

CNDX poor on saturday K-index 4 Au 23, Sunday afternoon evening had "Aurora-blanket" on stateside signals which cleared out around 21UTC on Sunday before that return path was attenuated S5 sigs gave me 59+ (thought receiver had trouble. Last moment on Friday got new filterBox for SO2R it helped a bit, but with contest like this SO2R is not in its best. Anyway practising SO2R a bit, but still need another filter box and stubs and a lot of training with SO2R. Win-Test was doing a trick to me on Sunday morning (or was it communications?) Changed bands from rig from 80 to 20m and after 150 qsos or so found that logging program is still in 80m. 15 minutes work to change all those 80m qsos to 20m. Otherwise all hardware doing quite OK. TNX for QSO's Please QSL's for direct only. 73 de Tapani OH5BM ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: OG6A Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 5,441,956 While propagation was (again...!) quite limited, this was another fun and educative contest. Local competition added to the excitement of it all; this time I ended up drawing the shorter straw, but happily I exceeded my pre-contest targets. Hoping for better conditions in the CW leg. Lowlights: 1) My aching brain reminded me about why I prefer CW over SSB. 2) Coming back into the shack after a short nap for the final contest hour at 2am this morning and wondering what on earth I'm supposed to do with all the equipment in front of me in order to get stations into that log on the computer screen. Highlights: All hardware worked fine. Many new Chinese stations. A few very nice runs. "Fun Light"(s): My favorite contest beverage! Big thanks to Jari OH6QU for loaning me the special callsign, and to Jukka OH6LI and Merja for their hospitality and for letting me use the OH4A station. And finally, thanks to everybody for the QSOs! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: OH1RX Class: SOAB(TS) HP Total Score = 1,495,889 I worked 6hrs less than 2007 to achieve about the same score.

Thanks for Qs to all agn. de Jouko OH1RX ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: OH2K Class: SOSB20 HP Total Score = 1,006,830 Decided to spend the weekend in the noise... radio conditions were poor - as expected. 4-el monoband yagi 25mh, 1000W, FT-1000D in use in our radio club. 20m singleband, single operator. Mr. Aurora, the frequent attenuator of northern ham shacks was strongly present during the whole contest time. A pity, because sunspot numbers were high for a change. I got a few hours of pileup fun, most of the time I was rolling the vfo looking for stations that are not dupes. The afternoon hours were very noisy with +20db basic noise and stations every 100 Hz... I felt like a qrp attic antenna station then. After sunset as the skip got longer operating 20 meters was more pleasant for the ears as europe was basically inaudible. In summary, mostly Europe - some Asia - very little Oceania - no Africa - big guns from North America, small pistols from South America. Niko OH2LZC (operated as OH2K) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: OK1WCF Class: SOAB(TS) LP Total Score = 1,599,862 Hi all, another great experience to work with 3el. tribander for higher bands. Inverted Vee for 40 and 80m. On 80m working great, but 40m is the worst band for me, inverted vee not working so good as on 80m, but i plane to built a vertical ant for the next season. Thanks to all for contact with me and hope to see you again in the next contest. Best 73! Good luck de Martin OK1WCF ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: OK5R Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 10,446,260 Once more in WPX an all bands. The propagation on Saturday was horrible, I could snap a few dozens of Ws on 40m the first night....(opposed to DR1A), how ever I was able to work only 5 Ws on 80m. Especially bad was 20m - as far as to W9 I have reached at first in 2000GMT !!!. I could not dream to work California in Saturday. It is unbelievable to hear what a difference a few hundred kms make. The "Middle" of Europe was once more for sure not the place to be in. The competition for top spot in Eu is going to be neck to neck this year - we will see what will happen after the "dust" settles down. I wonder what OM3BH made from OM8A super station. I was "pausing" a bit more in Saturday than in Sunday hoping the propagation could not get worse. In one moment M6T was already 500 QSOs ahead, but on the end I was happy to be "only" 250 behind. Somehow I have omitted from my observations 4O3A - they were usually some Multi during the last years. I had also heavy wind with rain causing huge static for some period of time. As is getting to be the rule the lack of JAs is getting worse, I made only 68 QSOs – optimistic is the rise of activity in China – I made 38 QSOs. No USA on 15m at all. I have completely omitted 10m. Thanks for a QSO to all of you and hope to hear you again.

Its decision based on our current local conditions and hardware possibilities. The core team was me, Vendy OK1WMV and Ian OK1NP. We prepared some special antenna projects for 40 and 15m band during Friday. Our next coleagues arrived as soon as they could. The contest was without fatal errors, but Mr. Murphy visited us again. We lost time on 20m thanks to bad relay switch in our PPA. It was able to do only TX but no RX. The next problem was in different date in one computer (problem with RTC and old backup BIOS batery in PC mainboard). Win-test logger generated data integrity corruption immediately after Ethernet network connection to this computer in our LAN. We had to extract cabrillo from corrupted data file and hand-edit right contest date. After this procedure we had to import new cabrillo back to each WT work station. This problem started for last 3 hours when we finished in contest effort on 80 and 40m band. The propagation conditions were in compilance with current solar cycle. We desided to ignore 10m band because of sharing workplaces and also weak activity monitored before contest. On 15m we have a few contats to NA arround 17:00z both days. Propably it was trough equatorial path. Our antena was to SW direction. No signal directly to NA. Also some back scatter to EU was monitored in the same direction. The main activity on 15 was from SA and AF. No reall openning to NA on 40m specially first contest day. It was terrible. Equipment: Workplace 1(80/15): FT1000MP PPAs 2x3-500Z and for second period on 15m band also driver 4xGU50(LS50) with PPA RE400( glass tube similar to 4-400)to second direction.

For 160m we shared radio and PPA from workplace 2. Antenna was 1/4wl sloper. No RX antenna on this band and this contest. Anyway we had lot of fun and good beer from Pilsen. Our friends OK1IC, OK1RW and OK1GTH visited us for the second contest period.

As the towers guywires are kevlar types we could easily stretch out the legs close to the guys.A small insulated teflon strip now serves as the jumper platform to switch between CW or SSB passband. Middle 100 kHz was omited so either 3500 to 3600 or 3700 to 3800 are available . For 160 m the only possible solution for the time being is an inverted 1/4 wave vertical stretched from the top of the 10 m high tower to a street light down the 10 stories building .Tower serves as the counterpoise .This solution is not so efficient but enough to be on topband during the contest. Other and better solutions are on the drawing table and need to be implemented. As the station is situated in the middle of Antwerp city and very close to a noisy banking environment it is obviouos that the noise floor is very high and puts a lot of strain on the operators to pull the weaker sigs out of the noise . Probably we have to live with this as even loop type RX antennas are not going to be efficient . But testing can be done and one never knows what comes out of this..... ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* The station uses only one FT 2000 into an ACOM 2000 and has no second (Mult) transceiver as we have no other antennas to use it with. The main antenna OPTIBEAM sits @ approx. 45 m ASL (See www.on4jz.be) Software used was the N1MM Contest Logger and also for the 1 st time we had the interaction with the Getscores website . ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* Team of 4 Operators were ON4JZ Joe owner of OP4K , ON4JW/OR4U Jean , ON5TN Karel and ON5UM/OP5T Jim . ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* After the magnetic sun storm earlier this week we had rather poor propagation to start of with but gradually improving by sunday afternoon . 40 m was a total disaster with only very few VE/W qso's in the log and also a seldom deep in actual points on that band. 160 m was very hard to get running and was soon abandoned first night . Did not improve second night or by the end . 80 m was good and proved that even with a rather modest but high up antenna we managed some good runs and some decent DX qso's. 20 m was our best band and gave us a lot of satisfaction in running pile ups . 15 m was surprisingly good on sunday afternoon but with only a few North American qso's over a south western skewed path . 10 m nearly dead but good friend Oms was there and that makes a good day . Tnx PY5EG !! All in all we had a great time in this little team and thankfull for the fact that we had a lot of intresting ideas and talks during restperiods . Nice to see Jean back in business . Thanks to all that made it through OP4K's noise floor..... Sorry for those we missed but there is allways a next time. Thanks to Joe for his hospitality again . Kind regards and 73 Jim - ON5UM/OP5T ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: OQ4B Class: SO(A)AB HP Total Score = 500,472 I was in the contest just for fun but most of all to test my repaired amp power supply. My electronic skill is still ok, as the amp didn't fail at all. Condx were good. 15 m did very well to South America. 20 m was very crowded, a lot of splattering from (too) strong EU and Russian stations so it was difficult to get to the USA (only stateside was workable). I still have my doubts about legal power of certain stations! Perhaps I should invest in a roofing filter for good old MkV? WX in Belgium was bad, so I was glad to be in the shack and had great fun. I only did S&P, because the software setup didn't allow me to use the voicekeyer.

I started on 20m where I made 94 QSOs in 40 minutes before the band started to close. I then switched to 40m and the rates were slow, about 75 QSOs per hour, for the following 2 1/2 hours. Later that night it picked up a little until the early morning when I took my first off time. I really was not tired so I watched TV and had a small snack. On Saturday morning conditions were good into Europe on 15m and 20m and in the afternoon I had a fantastic opening into the US on these bands along with another great opening into Europe on 20m. My best rate was on Saturday afternoon on 15m where I made 238 QSOs in 60 minutes. During the second night, low band conditions seemed better and I wish I had used up more of my off time on the previous night. I took about eight hours off on the second night and I made a spaghetti dinner and had some local Balashi beer. I slept pretty well. When I awoke the sun was out and 20m was again in very good shape and shortly later 15m opened. I alternated between the two bands until the last 20 minutes when I switched to 40m. I spent some time hunting for multipliers on the second radio, especially on Sunday, and I had my highest multiplier total ever. My QSO total was down from previous years, but that was expected at the bottom of the sun spot cycle. I did make many more double point low band contacts than usual which really boosted my points. When the contest ended I was surprised to see that I had broken the record that ZD88V held since 1993. I would like to thank everyone for the QSOs. Please QSL via WD9DZV. 73, John KK9A john@p40a.com Antenna picture on http://www.qrz.com/p40a ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: P49Y Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 14,337,340 Kind of a tough contest this time, with fewer EU than last year (mults down by 10%), and substantial power line noise for good parts of the contest. But score is up 2% over last year due to many more 80 and 40 QSOs. We did a lot of tower/antenna replacement at the P40L-P49Y station in February (thanks W6LD, W0YK, N6BT, P43A) and have all new Force 12 antennas on new towers. Unfortunately, we didn't quite get it all done, so there was some work left for me, most notably tuning the Sigma 180s 80m dipole, which is side mounted on the tower. It worked really well, and for the first time, I actually felt reasonably loud on 80. As usual, contesting on Aruba is also about socializing, this trip with P40V, P41YL, P43A, P43C, P43JB, P43L.

None of us wanted to work really hard, and we weren't able to recruit any cutthroat ops so we relaxed, napped when necessary, and took whatever the bands gave us. It turned out to be a good thing we didn't much care about the outcome because we were nailed with terrible powerline noise during much of the contest. It was solid S9 on all bands except 80 and 160, and it cost us the almost total loss of 40. Apologies to the many of you who called patiently but did not make it through the mask of noise. This was actually the first time we were HOPING for a power failure so we could move to the generator and have quiet bands! N4RV and I sniffed out the source: two transformer platforms, one behind the station and another at Sunset Waters Beach Resort about half a KM away. We tried the usual remedies but couldn't stamp out the noise. We'll get with the power company and get this fixed next time we're here for project work. The utilities in this part of the world are under no legal compulsion to fix these things, so we'll have to use some political finesse and possibly provide a subsidy. The noise came up probably because we are experiencing the driest period on Curacao since 2001. Rain showers cure line noise, but we haven't had a drop for weeks. Thanks to N4RV, veteran of 39 years of contesting from this area of Curacao for stepping up and doing more run operating than he planned. K2PLF did the lion's share of the running, I (W0CG) backed up Marty, and PJ2BVU filled in masterfully in the wee hours. W9JUV, a top honor roll DXer, accounted for nearly all of our S&P mults. Huge thanks to all the crew also for bag-dragging all kinds of assets down here, ranging from new door pulls for the kitchen cabinets to custom splice units made by W8WTS for 7/8 Heliax. Freight is super expensive to Curacao so airline bag drags are the key to keeping up with our logistical needs. WI9WI will be here SOABHP for WPX CW.

The QTH is really fantastic and the noise level is actually 0. Propagation on 10 meters at this latitude and at the low bottom of the cycle is not as good as in Argentina or Uruguay but the station gives us the necessary compensation. Hi? Sergio PP5JR organized five SOSB operations from the same site on Boa Vista Mountain. Sergio took 15 meters as ZX5J and made, as usual a fantastic score. Oliver W6NV gave us again the honor to operate 20 meters with the call sign PT5A fb score also. Marcos PP5AMP played on 80 meters with the cal sign ZV5K, and our new talent Evandro (15 years) PU5OGE took the worst horse operating the 160 meters. Hi? I operated the 10 meters and it was a pleasure to be with those old friends. In 2007 we won a MM from ZY100S (ZW5B station) and next challenge is to organize a MM from ZX5J.

Thanks to all callers and excuse to those not being heard in QRM or QRN happening in the first afternoon. 73s de Marko, S50K ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: S51A Class: M/S HP Total Score = 2,424,591 What a contest! After a long time Andrej S56ZAB, Ziga S56LZI and I managed to put on air again S53APR or S51A in a HF contest in a M/S setup. It was our first time HP from this location and we wanted to see if there were any problems with the setup, so we opted for 1 radio to see if there was anything wrong before going on a 2 radio setup. We tought we made all preparation possible and all, but... Our setup was th6dxx on 12m an an Eco dipole for 40m rotary on 14m and dipoles for 7, 3.5 and 1.8 on 12m. + 1 Bvg goin E-W Using a Ts-950Sdx + Acom 2000A. Proir the contest we checked all the things and decided to not go over 800W on the rotary dipole, which is declared for only 1kW. Better safe than sorry, HI..but ECO is ECO .... :) So Jane S57L joined me 1h before the contest we had all set up and ready to start. Started on 80m, but after 20 minutes the first failure...the dipole went arching somewhere and we couldnt figure it out where. So we discared the band after some tryes and went on 7. The bands were unusualy quiet...(we still didnt knew what was going on). I tought that the conditions were just bad and that was the cause, only later on sunday night we found out that the beverage was causing the station to go deaf in RX. After we removed the beverage it went all to normal ( only last 6h were worked like that :/ ) But, we learned something new, so that's what it's all about. All the signals were weak and hard to read. I'm apologising to all that we couldnt hear or were under the AGAIN AGAIN NUMBER AGAIN sindrome that we had... The beverage caused something like 30-60 Db Attenuation on the signals, so if we did get on someone's cq frq we apologise. I spent 6 or more hours on the tower in the middle of the contest fixing all that went wrong or didnt want to work properly. Ziga and Andrej fixed the dipole for 40m. The dipole for 80 was finnaly fixed on sunday morning and we operated for 2 days on 80m with a bad arching dipole and 150-300 W + the station problem. Now that i look on it i'm surprised how we managed the 1400 qso that we had prior of solving the problem with the radio. I will just congratulate the hams that stuck with patience to out deafness. After the 80m failure there was a failure on the 40m dipole. Same problem. The middle part was an ECO dipole center, declared for 3kW, but.....it didnt hold even 1,5kW. So never again using ECO stuff at all. The only dipole working fairly good was the 160m one. After a saturday run on 40m to collect the EU mults, the ECO rotary dipole for 40m was fryed even with only 600-800W in (30 min of cq and the rate was quite nice for a a dipole that high). Yey, i was stunned, but after a call from Jane S57L we keep holding on with the remaining setup. A thunderstorm made it to Ljubljana and i had to stop operating for 2h cuz of the qrn and the danger of lightnings. Dragan S55Z and Ales S59MA came to give a hand and offer some operating time while i was on the tower trying to fix stuff. On sunday afternoon after running 80m with realy bad signals Damjan S52W told us that we were totaly deaf, and we finnaly managed to fix the problem. Yey, the bands opened and it was like another world, but we lost most of the time. Oh well, it will be for next time...(i can say that we lost something like 800 qso on all bands cuz of that) The station and the Acom 2000A worked ok even with all the problems mentioned above. The Acom is realy realy a pleasure to work with and you only need 3s to be on another band with it. Realy awesome. Not a glitch and thanks the guys from acom to the auto protection of the PA. otherwise it would've been realy smoky in the shack. Thanks again to all and it was a pleasure to work many OM and WWYC's. A special thanks to the S53APR people and others that made it possible. There were 1 bad point in the contest when an old bitter ham made a realy stupid comment on our cq frq. But that is to be expected from his intellectual greatness. :) Next time hopefullx with a 4 el Quad and things that will work on other bands (hoepfully :P ) S51A will come back with a better and working setup. We are allways learning. Bostjan S55O p.s. In a few days i'll try to put up some photos of the contest on my homepage. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: S51CK Class: SO(A)SB80 HP Total Score = 1,610,644 First WPX on 80m. 73 de s51ck -Ivo ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: S51F Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 1,340,700 CU in CW part ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: S52OT Class: SOSB160 LP Total Score = 191,232 FT1000MP @ 100W, Inv V @ 18m (60') Heavy March snow caused water to enter into traps of my tribander, so decided to operate top band only, as part time effort due to family commitments.

I found yesterday that PA1WLB even spotted me on cluster after our 10m qso. I did mostly S&P and I was very surprised that I managed to get through pile-ups with two or three calls max. I put the fieldday style slooper for 40m on Sunday morning and had some fun there too. The other antenna was FishingRod tribander designed by S55M (see http://www.s55m.com/teh/images/GP.jpg). Major "research&developement" task in this contest was eliminating spurious whistles from computers and wired LAN. I resolved successfully the problem of blocking N1MM logger due to RF entry over USB CAT adapter. Ole ic746 without filters did a decent work in a few runs on 40m.

From East, only two DX, YB1AR & YF1AR. Z21ANB/B was on for both days for quite few hours, but no activity from there. I worked just 5 ZS's. C91R has huge signal. I was chaseing 5T5DC for the whole DX-ped time and finally work them then in CQ WPX. Only two E-Sporadic opening second day, G's and EA4, and E-Sporadic to Ukraine/UA6 first day. We're talking about 20-minutes and two hours in both cases. All other EU's has been worked Tropo or Back Scatter style mode. Some guys must running quite well over limited power. I was surprise I can't get even a singe QRZ? back from some Back-scatters while I was running 850W and 4 el. DJ0A and AO5W - think about that! On the other hand - great opening to South America both days. PP5EG has the best signal. Congratulations mr. Oms for fine score. Look's like invest in H-frame of 4 antennas certainly pays off. I manage to wor only two SA stations on CQ. All others are on S/P. Geeeeeee, SA's like to calling CQ. They're in love with CQ!

Had a very good time, and thought I would -- WPX appeals to me more than most phone contests as there's tons of action, everyone gets to work everyone, and there are plenty of mults around for a little pistol station like mine. Expected conditions to be a bit better than they were, given the sharp rise in solar flux over the past week. Just 1 contact on 15M. None on 10M. Went in with hopes for 500 Qs. Managed that by Saturday some time, and just kept going. Figured I'd try to get 500,000 points if the bands were any good. I certainly did not expect to get near a million, but when it got closer I drove hard for it, hi. Friday night was really quite lousy on 40M and 80M from here. Watched the livescores.org site to see my buddy VE4EAR surge ahead on the strength of a powerful 40M outing. Ed (three provinces away) found mults and Qs I didn't know existed. I kept going but figured I was going to have one of those weekends where bad conditions truly determine how I do despite best efforts. Things sure picked up on Saturday night. On 40M Friday night I was pretty timid with the amplifier, as one kid reported TVI while playing his video games. I don't want neighbour problems, so kept power below 300 watts until I could confirm that only that one TV closest to the antenna, using a cheap RF-splitter at the video game, exhibited TVI. The other cable-powered TVs in the house were unaffected, so Saturday night was QRO again and it made a difference in Qs. 20M was good to South America on Friday and Saturday. Sunday seemed like much slimmer pickins, but still quite a few new stations in the late morning and afternoon. Decided to run a tuner between the amp and trapped tribander (Mosley Classic-33) and that allowed me to work much better up in the high end of 20M, though still doesn't quite make me comfy. The new N1MM Logger macro commands for the FT-2000 DVK were in action for the first time. Worked very nicely. About 70 per cent of my Qs are from CQing, and about 20 per cent of CQs were DVK. Good for late at night, when all the family heard were my hollered exchanges, hi. Pretty dead low bands gave me about 9 hours of off-time each night, so sleep wasn't an issue. Kept well-hydrated with lemonade and lots of plain ol' water, as I wasn't sure what 30 hours at the mic would do to my throat. Can feel it, but nothing much at all. Felt like I made smart choices for band time (heh... "OK, Bud, stay on 20M because nothing else is open. Ever."), and pointed in all the right places at the right times. Wish JA had been open longer both days, but happy to work the handful that I found. Europe opened rather briefly both mornings, with Sunday a.m. the stronger opening. Still, the peak to EU was a bit flat and signals choppy. Had a hard time with all but the big guns. QSOs Pts WPX Score (claimed) 2008 943 2668 408 1,088,544 SOAB HP ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE3AD Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 21,312 Thought improved conditions might have produced better results on 15 and 10. Good to hear SE Asia on 20M ; but couldn't crack the EU pile with low power. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE3DZ Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 8,122,718 Thanks to Paul VE3SY and Marg VE3RE for letting me use VE3SY station again. It could have been well for the very last time, since VE3SY property is up for sale now: http://www.ve3sy.com/sale Also a big Thank You to Paul, VE3TA who loaned me his Emtron DX-2 amplifier which was used with the 2nd radio and made life a bit easier, especially on 15 meters. Low point is that rotor on the 2 el. 40 m beam got stuck, but the good news was that it got stuck pointed to EU, so at least I could try to work 6-pointers from Europe with no problems. However, when I was jealously listening to VE3EJ and VE3UTT on Saturday morning managing huge pile-ups of VK/ZL and some JA's on 40, my frustration was immense... Conditions were so poor on Saturday morning on high bands, that I could not (for the very first time in many years!) establish a run frequency on 20 meters well until probably 18:00 UTC... Did a lot of CQ'ing on 40 with S&P'ing on 20... Again, what a huge difference a stack of Yagis could make as compared to a single Yagi! In conditions like these, even 1 dB of extra gain could help you to uncover extra layer of stations that are mostly unaudible on a single antenna. Slowly, but surely, hour after hour, VE3EJ and VB3E were making their margin more and more noticable. Had few good runs to JA though, something that I almost forgot doing from this location. Anyway, thank you all for the QSOs and points and congratulations to John VE3EJ on his usual great score on phone! See you all in WPX CW in 2 months. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE3MGY Class: SOAB(TS) LP Total Score = 114,120 Absortion levels were very high due to a M class flare that caused the GMF to go to storm levels in the days preceeding the contest. Unfortunately the band didn't have time to settle down to precontest levels that were enjoyed by all earlier in the week. QRN was managable up to about 0500z when levels rose a few more S units but overall it was the absortion that played havoc on 160. Still lots of fun as always. See you in the CW. 73 Brian VE3MGY ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE3RM Class: M/2 HP Total Score = 8,437,865 Equipment Description: Yaesu FT-2000 & FT-1000MP, Kenwood TS-940, H-B Amplifier 1KW, ALpha 87A, 2 SIXPACK BOXes, 2 Filter ICE 419 PC: 2 Pentium 1 233 MHz-128 MB RAM with CT V10 (DOS) and 2 DVK K1EA. Antennas: Bencher Skyhawk @ 24 meter (fixed to EU), TH5 @ 18 meter, 402CD @ 22 meter, Inverted V in 160, 80 y 40 metros, T vertical for 160. Comments: This operation was operated as M2 but we won't plan to enter in a real competition, our target was to show to the new contesters how is running two band at the same time in a big contest; we haven't got a big score, but we achieve our target of getting new people in contest. The propagation wasn't very good and lot of noises in the bands, the first day with very few EU in the log, but second day we have a great openning with EU, VK & ZL in 40, EU & JA in 20. Very few EU in 15 meter, all worked via back-scatter. For the first time at VE3RM we had 2 YL operators (LW8EXF + VA3YOJ) at both microphones at same time, our rates were increases in both bands indeed, with very friendly and organized pile-ups :-). As the YLs were in the radios, the OM take care of the food, by the way, we had pizza delivery, left-overs, Tim Hortons' coffe and McDonalds breakfast during the weekend. We have Doug (13 y.o boy waiting for his call) operating for the first in a big contest, he got hooked and planning to return for more fun in next contest. Very few problems this time: The rotor in our main antenna was stuck to EU. We couldn't get working the CAT control on the FT-2000 with our CT software, therefore, we couldn't use this radio during the contest. (if someone could give us some help with this issue, we will be very appreciated). Lots of LUs and PYs worked on the bands, the two biggest contest groups in SA (Araucaria and LUCG) are doing a great job getting people in the contest field. THANKS again to Don VE3RM for his host, his teaching and his help. See all of you in the Ontario QSO Party later this Month. 73, Claudio VE3AP-VE2DWA-LU7DW ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE3SS Class: SOSB20 HP Total Score = 21,242 Part-time S & P effort. Lots of stations to work plus good signals made for a good time! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE3UTT Class: SO(A)AB HP Total Score = 2,980,440 Very noisy here but good conditions otherwise. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE4EAR Class: SOAB(TS) HP Total Score = 724,941 Wow that was tough! Friday night 40 was pretty decent for NA qso's but noise was pretty high and other than a few SA stations, no DX was worked. 80m was next to impossible with very high QRN and Aurora noise. Saturday saw 20m slow to open with EU open for only 20 minutes around 1500 UTC. The signals that were heard all had the polar flutter on them. Later in the afternoon, EU opened again but very difficult to be heard. At about 2100 UTC it was if someone turned the ionosphere off and 20m just died. No SA, no JA, only a handful of strong west coast stations. I could not find anyone new to work on 40m and even CQ'ing yield a rate of 10 per hour. Went to 80m and condityions were a bit better than Friday night. Sunday stared horribly. We were experiencing a winter storm with 90km/h wind gusts and freezing rain and snow. The vertical antenna stopped working properley and I suspected the wind had damaged the elevated radials. The doublet was blowing around like crazy and the VSWR was all over the place. I wasn't going to be foolish enough to get up on the roof in that kind of weather. I plugged along the best I could with the dipole. Sunday morning EU opened up again with plenty of signals. I could hear them without a any difficulty but they could not hear me. Even running 700W into the doublet, seemed of little use. Again all the signals to EU had that polar flutter. Managed a few runs on 20m and finally 15m opened up. Not great but at least some SA and carribean stations were worked. No ZL or African stations were heard. Obviously a lot of US stations were working the same stations I was but I could not heard a single one of them. The closest signals were a couple XE and a CO station. Late in the afternoon, 2100 UTC, my first JA stations called me for a change. Sunday. Soon I was working more JA's than I have done in previous contests with far better signals. At the same time, the CT1-CT3 were pounding in here and I was breaking their pileups on the first call. Not a normal occurrence for me:) Bottom line it was 48 hours of ups and downs. Starting with bad conditions, bad weather, an aurora that feeds off my RF and lousy antennas. It ended on a bit better note with a new personal high Q total. Thanks to CQ and everyone for their patience and endless requests for repeats. Also a special thank you to VA7ST for the motivation of keeping my butt in the chair and for the sound thrashing! 73 Ed ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE6CNU Class: SOSB20 LP Total Score = 11,084 I got back from a week in 6Y5 Land at 0300 local time this morning. Didn't feel much like turning on the radio, and then the XYL needed to go grocery shopping. Bottom line was 1 hour at the end. Band condx seemed good and worked quite a bunch of Argentina and other South American stations. Thanks for the Q's and see you all in the next one.

I thought the bands were pretty fair, but no EU at all. I found out that I can't run a real KW HI, so looks like back to the easy to get amp gain (500w). Cheers, Dan.. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE6FI Class: M/2 HP Total Score = 2,124,243 Well WPX 2008 was OK for this part of the cycle. Some Europe on 20 and 40 on the second day. Not much coming from over the pole and a bit from the Pacific. It gets a little lonely running M2 when one is alone although most of the time you only need one person. Evan ve6fi and myself were there. On Sunday afternoon Dave VE6KD and his Grandson Adrienne came over and ran the 20 meter station. Adrienne is going to be getting his license. Visitors included Herman Ve6ADD, Lloyd ve6xl with his tales of India, and Dennis Ve6ubz who managed to work us from his home in west Edmonton on 20 meters The station works great from the new location. Now we have to get busy to finish the bathroom and the kitchen before Field day comes along. Thanks Evan for hosting the event. Denis ve6aq ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE6SV Class: M/S HP Total Score = 2,991,654 It was a very difficult weekend from the propagation point. High absorption produces very little openings for us. We had to work for every point and multiplier. But that's what is all about.

We had fun but are waiting for some good conditions. Maybe next year? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE7XF Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 104,528 A part time operation. Aced out on the low bands again by a noisy lighting system next door (12v switching p/s for halogen kitchen lighting). Condx unsurprising, nice to hear VK/ZL again, but fewer JA. Hoping for better condx for CW. rp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE8DW Class: SOSB20(R) LP Total Score = 4,017 Had a great time. 47 contacts is a new personal best, many thanks to everyone that worked me. 73 Wally, VE8DW ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VK8AA Class: SOSB10 HP Total Score = 70,800 Absolutely fabulous 10m conditions - took me back to 2002, but had very limited time behind the rig due to social committments. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VO1DJT Class: SOAB(R) LP Total Score = 185,468 My second contest, still learning the ropes.

Was a lot easier on the old bones ... 10 or 15 times up and down the tower in minus 6 or 7 does that to an old guy....... drains a load of energy you only THINK you still have hi ! Fine contest with loads of activity ... winter still lingers here with loads of snow and wind and ice etc etc ... great to work so many familiar calls .....thanks for all the qsos and Hope to C'Y'all Next one GLWCDR 73 Gus VO1MP ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VO1TX Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 177,072 Really enjoyed the Contest!! Really distinguished the value of The Mosley TA 33 JR compared to the Alpha Delta DX CC this time!!! Looking forward to next years WPX Contest!! Cheers VO1TX ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VU2NKS Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 299,726 First use of Elecraft K3/100.Still learning to use it optimally in SSB. Antenna is a 3el Steppir with 30/40 addon. NO QRO yet. Managed only one contact into Conus. 40m was horrible,could not get into Euro,most of them were copiable here. I can imagine the conditions local to Europe in low bands. Much QRM at home,dodging xyl/11yr old harmonic all the time. I had a good time. Nandu ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VU2PTT Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 853,200 Rig - Icom 746PRO to SB-200 Amp running around 400 watts Ant - F-12 C3S @ 60' on 20,15,10m & Vertical wire with 1 radial for 40m Logger - N1MM Logger. This contest was recorded :) My first attempt in the HP category on SSB. Thanks to Brad K7ZSD for the SB-200 amp which helped many of you hear me. Family responsibilites allowed operating only 24 hours of the contest - 8 hours of peak QSO time on 20m was given up for hospital duties for my father-in-law. 15 metres was the money band. Ran JA's for the first time in several years on 15m. Strategy was to collect JA prefixes the first day and EU 3/6 pointers and prefixes the second. First day was OK for my part time effort although I missed all of the prime time on 20m. But on the second day after running some EU on 15m till 1200z, went back to hospital and returned for 20m only around 1600z. At 1640z, the 20m band which was full of loud signals from NA/EU suddenly died to near zero. I had just started a run on this band and was dismayed at this, of course I should have been there when the band was hot! Checked 15m which was dead as well, except for a lone and loud ZY7C whom I worked. Went down to 40m and started trying to work the very loud EU stations on S&P mode. One attempt to run only got 9M8Z to call me. Around 2045z went up to 20m which was dead all the time to scan the band without much hope. Imagine my surprise when I heard a very loud VO1MP calling CQ on the low end of the band. Quickly worked him and then tuned higher up to hear HI3T who was so loud he sounded like he was transmitting from the next room, I could even hear the low level hum on his power supply. Worked him and then tuned up the band to work a few more loud stations in quick succession which inlcuded NN1N, HD2A, HI3C, P40A, VQ59W, VB3E, 6Y1V, K1ZM, TO1C, VP2E, WP2Z, FG/OM3LA, V25V, TO5RZ. After working TO5RZ for a new country at 2130z, the band again went dead as if someone had turned off a switch!! Was not sure if I was hallucinating because all of these signals sound unreal - LOUD. This was a bit too much in my tired condition, so happily shut down the radio and went to bed at 3 AM local time. In the morning I found all these entries in the log - I must have worked them!!! Looks like the sunspots are coming back slowly. See you all in WPX CW when I hope to have another blast. Thanks for all the Qs and the fun!!! :-)) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W0BH Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 1,193,605 Great stateside and SA propagation, but could never get anything really going into Europe (never heard Japan), so lots of missing mults. Fun anyway even though I knew I wouldn't have time to operate the entire contest. Look for me next weekend running 34 counties in the Missouri QSO Party and again in the Nebraska QSO Party the same weekend as the Florida QSO Party. Details on my QRZ.COM listing. Thanks for all the Qs! 73, Bob, w0bh ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W0RAA Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 28,971 I was strictly S&P. No intent to stay in it long, but I picked up a few new ones, so decided to stay a little longer. Had a lot of fun for 7 hours on and off. Most of my time was spent turning the VFO knob. I'll definitely be in the next one. Thanks to everybody who gave me a contact. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W1CU Class: M/2 HP Total Score = 7,070,256 Our thanks to Brad, K6IDX for letting us use his fine station. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W1KQ Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 52,682 Last minute participation. Had to work again on Saturday and had a lot to do around the house but got up Sunday morning and decided to do some operating. This was all after having to reinstall XP from scratch on the shack machine...DV Dongle driver crashed my system file and no recovery disk...DOH!!! AL-811H with 572B tubes gave me 900 watts PEP...I noticed in the BARTG RTTY I was getting close to that for max although I only ran 400 watts for that test. Installed tubes after Christmas and have been getting only 600 PEP...yeah maybe only a needle's width difference in sig now but hey!! Exciter FT-1000D. Antenna Cobra dipole made out of 14 AWG Romex up 75'. Only worked 20m and 15m for this contest. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W1OHM Class: SOSB15 LP Total Score = 1,298 Worked about half the stations that I could hear on 15, and that's the good news. The bad news is all the other bands were worse at my limited station. Couldn't reach any DX, so I stuck with 15. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W1UE Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 4,721,336 Low bands were tough the first night. Storm front coming thru made the bands noisy. When I went to 40M at 0500Z, the only sigs on the band were from So Amer- the European sigs were all weak, including the SWBC stations. 20M was decent on Sat, but I could never get anything going on Sunday. 20M was the only game in town, pretty much, during the day, but nothing I did seemed to generate high rates. I haven't done this contest in 8 or 9 years- now I remember why. And I've never done it without a good "prefix" callsign. Thanks for the Qs! Dennis W1UE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W2IRT Class: SO(A)SB40 HP Total Score = 512,556 Only spent a few hours this weekend playing and nothing serious at all until the last hour on 40 when I did manage to get a good run going to stateside. At least propagation was better than ARRL-SSB! I'll probably get on for a few hours in May for the CW version, too. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W3LL Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 1,316,349 Didn't think I'd be able to beat last years score. However on Sunday afternoon I found a clear spot on 20M where the Europeans could hear my 90W. This lasted for all of 30 minutes then it reverted to no replies. I could hear Europeans quite well but propagation was such that low power barely made it across the pond. Had to retreat to 40M periodically during the day to let the head clear. Suprisingly 40M was open during the day. Thanks for all the Q's. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W3TZ Class: SO(A)AB HP Total Score = 385,789 I damn well hope this is the bottom of the sun spot cycle (it sure HERTZ!) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W4EE Class: M/S LP Total Score = 520,039 TS-440S C3S es G5RV Tnx for the Q's ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W4KW Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 534,852 Lost utility power several times (amid all the lightning)& the 160 Antenna Friday evening when the first storms came through. Short 10 mtr. opening Sunday afternoon. 20 Meters very active, as usual. Hopefully next year will bring better conditions and more operating time. Tnx to ALL for all the fun and Q's. 73 Bert ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W4LT Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 271,813 Sat in the chair as much as possible between house work, selling a car and attempting to buy another one for my son... And the weather here in Florida was just SOOOO nice this weekend!! I thought we had sunspots? Conditions were so so, with massive QSB on 10 and 15 at times. Experienced what I think was a blackout on 15 Saturday, a big rushing noise, and all the signals disappeared for about four minutes. Some fun runs on 40, used my old TS430s instead of the 850S/AT for these. The extra 35 watts may have helped! Was encouraged with my performance on 40, I'm getting quite good at quickly setting splits with N1MM with the 850! Did anybody else work S566D or was he a special call just for me? He called me on 40 and I asked him three times just to make sure! I just copy what they send! One insane moment in this test! Was running on 40 when a good ol boy sounding gent called to tell me "Contester, you are out of band!". I was on 7.147.9. I said "but I'm an Extra!" And he said "The US phone band ends at 150, contester!" and was never heard from again... I wish he would have ID'd so I could send him a copy of the post December 16 bandplan! I was laughing so hard it messed up my cadence for a couple of minutes. Poindexter! Turn off the Wayback Machine, will ya? All in all, good fun for 8 hours. Lu-W4LT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W4NTI Class: SOAB(TS) HP Total Score = 152,975 I think pulling teeth would have been more fun..Conditions fair to poor. Ten was totally dead, except for TE, but not worth hanging around waiting for it. Plus my Alabama Power contributed NOISE pretty much killed the band. 15 perked up on Sunday, but I couldn't cut lose to take maximum advantage. So 20 and 40 were the workhorse bands as usual. Come on Cycle 24...P L E A S E ..hi. Dan/W4NTI ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W4TMN Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 551,870 A new personal record for me!! It was great to work my elmer (he is almost 82 years old, a couple of new countries and my old friends. As always, it was great to hear an encouraging word from N4PN and to hear him rack up the Q's!!! I can only hope that Cycle 24 will be be even more exciting than 23!! Who would have known that conditions would have been so terrible this weekend??? Thanks to everyone who dug into the mud to pull out my puny signal. 73, Hershel ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W5FO Class: SOSB20 HP Total Score = 49,098 Rain static, basketball and NASCAR were major distractions.

She is the 13 yr old daughter of K4CZ and KI4ZWQ. She was doing real well picking the calls out and handling things, even chiding some WB9, at one point, to "use phonetics". ;-) The future of contesting looks bright!

Although, this year presented us with several challenges. We knew from ARRL SSB not to expect too much in the way of propagation, and we weren't surprised, there wasn't much. 80M the first night was very disappointing, as absorption levels kept us from working good rates and the many multipliers that were available. The second night static levels were high and signals weak. 40M was impacted by the low MUF and almost completely died both nights. We appreciated all the VK/ZL callers both mornings. 20M opened later than ARRL and we experienced the same difficulties of working the many callers with the crowded band and periodic line noise. The late afternoon EU band closings and Asia openings were good and a lot of fun. 15M never opened to EU and it mostly acted like 10M. Only a few EU stations were heard and worked. 10M was all short openings south, no EU or Africa heard or worked. The other challenge was that most of our team had schedule conflicts this weekend, so no one, except WE3C, was on-site for the whole 48 hours. We had concerns about keeping the seats occupied, but fortunately with the number of operators participating, we were able to keep the run seats filled for most of the weekend.

Fun while it lasted, of course. A special mention of the following contacts as new, unique and interesting: VU2NKS, XV1X, W7WA, 5X4X, XQ1KY, V73PX, JD1BIA, and EX2T. I'll manage a few more hours this May in the CW half. 73, Mike K3UOC @ WH2D ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: WI4R Class: SOSB80 HP Total Score = 961,086 Want first to thank Lee. Also thanks to all who gave me points. This is the best I have ever done in this contest. Friday night started out slow but picked up later. I worked quite a few euros. The static picked up though and made for many repeats. Saturday night I had a great run into Europe, about 85 were logged, including 9K2,H2,C4,and having 5T5DC call me! I was hoping for around 500,000 points, for at least maybe third or fourth place. I did well past this. I thought maybe I would catch ND8DX, with the idea of working more 6- pointers, but he just had to may Q's for me to catch up. Cogratulations to ND8DX. Mark-W4SVO ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: WM4RM Class: SO(A)AB HP Total Score = 175,244 I used 160, 80, 40 and 20 but don't have the band breakdowns. Of course on 80 meters I was maliciously interfered with for about a 15 minute period. They were a couple kHz down from me and everytime I would call CQ one of them would move up and say the freq was in use. I kept asking where they were because I couldn't hear them below me but he had already left. Then the jamming started for about 15 minutes. Then he said if I moved up 500 Hz he would not interfere with me anymore. That was nice of him. Of course he would never give his call sign. I dread 80 meters every year because of these idiots but I won't let them spoil my fun. CU in the contest and 73, Jack W4NF ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: WM5R Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 1 I got off to my best start ever in this contest. I was well over 600 QSOs at 0400 UTC when I began hearing thunder and seeing lightning in the distance. I started paying attention to the weather radar and decided that I needed to shut down the station around 0420 UTC. In the process of rapidly disconnecting everything, I think I stepped on the power strip for the PC and shut it off rather abruptly. I kept watching the weather radar on my smartphone. The lightning got to be pretty intense by 0500 UTC, as the storm cell went directly overhead. I lost power briefly on two occasions. We took a near or maybe even direct hit sometime after 0500 UTC. It was one of those strike where the lightning and thunder were (to my senses) simultaneous and I involuntarily became airborne for a moment. There was a lot of static discharge at the bulkhead, and I was staying well clear of that side of the building. I was without power at 0600 UTC when I decided to try to sleep a little - because what else could I do? When I woke up a few hours later, the power was back on. I booted up the PC and discovered that my log was gone. The file was there on disk, zero bytes, with a timestamp from before the contest. Maybe I need to figure out what SMARTDRIVE is supposed to be doing on that PC, as it looks like for more than four hours it never wrote the log to disk. In 12 years of using TR Log, I've never lost a log before, even with sudden power loss. When I started checking things out, I thought the situation was pretty bad, as I wasn't immediately able to put power out on one of the radios, but it turns out only a few things actually died. An IC in one of the Top Ten band decoders exploded, COM2 in the PC is dead, there are some LED issues in the other band decoder and a band pass filter, and a blown fuse (no spares on hand) in the SixPak control box. I spent a long time checking out antennas, rotors, amps, radios, switch boxes, the DX Doubler, etc. and those all seem to be OK. Next year. Video I took during the first power outage using my cell phone: http://www.wm5r.org/contest/2008_wpx_phone/ [Note: the WA7BNM form is forcing me to claim a score greater than zero]. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: WN6K Class: SOAB(TS) LP Total Score = 409,247 Finished Two Novels and started 100 pages of another...great sucess.

Lots of fun in spite of snow static ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: WU3A Class: M/S HP Total Score = 6,891,075 Several months of hunting power line interference along with PSNH specialist produced no results yet -- so, as before, S5 to S9 noise was coming from EU direction all day Sunday, making stacks useless... The only option was using low steppir beaming NW for receive. Sorry guys for being deaf. getscores.org was fun to watch -- I hope some day Writelog poster will be fixed, and breakdown would post correctly. Thanks to all for inspiration, and especially WA7XX and NQ4I. (2K QSO on 40 -- I can't believe it was possible for normal humans from the US soil). Just outstanding! I wish WR3Z also be there ;) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: WW9R Class: SOAB HP Total Score = 257,400 Gap Voyager, Yaesu FT1000 MP Mark V, Ameritron AL811H Wish I could have spent more seat time but was battling the stomach flu all week-end... See you in the next one, Pat WW9R ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: WX3B Class: M/M HP Total Score = 5,083,488 Operators: WX3B, N3ST, NY3A, N3YIM, N3VOP, KB3IFH This was another fun effort at WX3B. I enjoyed seeing my good friends playing radio during weekend. This effort could best be described as a limited multi-op, with the focus on maximizing fun over score. Joe, N3YIM is learning that not all packet spots are GOOD ones! Joe did an excellent job pouncing on 20 meters and a very reliable source states that Joe got an Official Observer notice for a prior contest at WX3B. This has a twist: it was a POSITIVE COMMENT on how he conducted himself during the event. Way to go Joe! Steve, NY3A came over on Friday night and made some contact on 160 & 20 while re-possessing his Icom 756 PRO III (nice radio!). Brian, N3ST made the majority of QSOs on 80 meters both nights, and left WX3B just before European sunrise, leaving the real fun for … WX3B! Mike, N3VOP immediately created quite a pileup when he took over the main 20 meter radio late Sunday afternoon. He is certainly developing the necessary skills to dig weak signals out of the noise (and boy was there noise on 20 this weekend). On several occasions, he corrected the WX3B copied exchange. Randy, K3IFH (guest) came over to see what WX3B was all about. He says he like handing out points, but he’s not one of those “hard core” contesters. Some other highlights: the HUGE JA and Asian opening Saturday night, and the endless 20 meter opening to Europe that lasted past 6:30pm Sunday evening. One final highlight for me was having band conditions shift, and a very gentlemanly Krassy, K1LZ relinquishing his run frequency to me after we both discovered we were in each other’s way. Some of you might understand why this is a highlight. Thanks to all my PVRC friends that stopped by, spotted me and made this a fun event. See you in the summer contests! 73, Jim WX3B ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: WX5S Class: M/S HP Total Score = 1,933,798 All systems were ready and checked out the week before this event. We had a boat load of fun !! A lot of interesting calls out there and as always some interesting moments with busted calls and almost missed mults. Thanks to everyone who made an exchange with us and provided the exhilarating moments after getting spotted on the 'cluster'.

It was painful. Maybe next year. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: XE1KK Class: SOSB15 HP Total Score = 111,408 A busy social weekend keep me away from the contest. Uncle Bill XE1ZW’s 70th birthday party was a good reason not to participate. He has taught me most of what I know about this great hobby. Very interesting conditions… although I can’t say they were good. Except for California and a few W7s all the QSOs with the US were scatter either beaming to Brazil or the South Pacific. The very few QSOs with Europe were scatters in central Africa. More PYs than LUs, when usually is the other way around. Several YBs but no copy of DU. KH6 were not to strong. JAs were stronger beaming Hawaii than Japan. It seems we had a propagation barrier to the northern places. Several times I call during the morning but had ZERO answers… very unusual! Last Thursday just worked 400 US stations on 10 meters while testing the station. Anyway in the last hour of the contest I double my QSO number and A35RK, VK9ANU and H44MS called me. The best part is to meet friends and give the XE1 prefix to those who needs it. 73 de Ramon, XE1KK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: XU7ACY Class: SOAB LP Total Score = 1,186,902 Great time operating from this side of the globe.A whole different ball game.Almost impossible to get Euro's attention on 40 and 80 meters,signals 20 over 9 have no idea you are calling them.Great openings on 15 and a nice short burst on 10 too.Very poor conditions to NA,although WE3C was booming in on 20 near the end.

One thing is for sure, I will never forget this contest, not for the Q's so much, but for the conditions -. . . . . it's normal here but when you think about it it's sort crazy.

Propagation were quite poor, actually not very poor, but with high qrm, static crashes and some strange interference that I haven't encountered before... I've completed the first day with great difficulties ending it with 1001 contacts and 551 prefixes. Pretty bad long path to Europe and the small number of USA qsos (only about 200) would summarize the first day. The second day was almost the same, although with slightly better propagations. I had a nice European run over the long path that especially helped with some new multipliers. At 2am local time the "Chinese Dragon" showed up forcing me to move to the lower portion of the band and to operate split for a while. I fail to see why there is a such a big problem for some people for a few major contests per year if someone operates in cw or ssb portion of the band. In any case first 50KHz is recommended for cw, but it ain't exclusive for cw use. Same goes for the ssb, but to each his own I guess. The strongest signal on the band was by far OK5R and then quite behind were 2 other Europeans: YT8A and 4O3A. K1TTT, KC1XX, W3LPL W3LR were nowhere to be heard - probably taking a rest after the ARRL. This round I've used 1.8KHz ssb filter, as opposed to the ARRL when I had 2.4KHz and that certainly proved to be very useful. The rest of the equipment performed as usual - nothing to complain about. Thanks to all that called and hope to see you again in cw part, but now with one of the call signs ZL3WW/ZM3WW. The ZL regulations specifies that special call sign can be issued only for the duration of one year and after that another person can apply for it, so I won't be using ZL3A/ZM3A call signs. The goal was to improve the last year score and I was able to do so. I've added some statistics further bellow... 512 usa and canada 343 ja 640 eu 73 Dule ex ZL3A ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: ZM1K Class: SOSB80 HP Total Score = 12,408 K3 + 500w amp, 'Tee' vertical - miserable conditions, S&P only.
