Should add SO(A) category for casual ops, instead of making us go to M/S. Also I was CW only but I guess that's not an option for M/S. 73 Darrell AB2E ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: BY1RX Class: SO Mixed HP Total Score = 17,136 It's not much of a score, but I was 10,000km from the centre of the action. I made over 50 QSOs with Canadians, five times more than last year. I suspect this is a new Chinese record. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: DL7BY Class: SO CW LP Total Score = 6,540 Bad conditions, comparing to the good condx from the last weekends. I had only very limited time and missed the high bands in our afternoon. Thje 9A-contest made a little bit confusion. Many stations were calling "CQ TEST" without any information, on which contest the are tooked part.

Nice to say MX/HNY to all. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: K6CSL Class: SO CW LP Total Score = 2,844 Score is 468 more than last year. Last year the main band was 20, this year it was 15. My main score improvement however appears to be in QSO Point values with more RAC HQ stations than last year. A fun event.

K8MM ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: K8MU Class: SO Mixed LP Total Score = 29,540 For me, running a 6-foot long mobile antenna on all bands, my goal is always a moving target. Coming down to the wire, my final goal was to break 30,000 points. I needed only two more VE's to do it, and I called and called stations that were getting stronger and stronger for about the last 30 minutes of the contest, but my little antenna doesn't do well on 80, and I couldn't even raise a dididahdahdidit! I had originally thought I might enter 40-meter single band, but with the way 10 has been open recently, I couldn't resist trying up there. It turned out (for me,anyway) to be not very productive, but by that time, there was no going back. I did have fun though, and maybe next year I'll try to wet my noodle! K8MU ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: K9YC Class: SO Mixed HP Total Score = 516,800 I put on the full court press for this one, and enjoyed it a lot. Running this contest on both CW and SSB lends itself quite well to SO2R. It's also a very relaxed contest, and thus an excellent opportunity to learn contesting, learn a new radio or new logging software, and build SO2R skills. I've been running the YCCC SO2R box for more than a year now and really like it. The only thing I haven't figured out is how to get stereo from the K3s through it for diversity. Everything worked fine with one exception -- I discovered that the DX Engineering preamp for my Beverages has died, so I patched around it for the Stew Perry. As it turns out, the K3 has plenty of gain to accept the output of a reasonably long Beverage (mine are 550 ft and 500 ft long). I'm really pissed that there's no schematic of the preamp in the DXE manual. I suspect a pair of blown transistors. On the good side, they're 2N-numbered. 73, Jim K9YC ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: KN3A Class: SO Mixed LP Total Score = 22,400 Nice contest.

Was not impressed with 10 or 15 but 40 and 20 were very kind to me. Great to exchange greetings with many radio buds who I usually don't get a chance to stop and talk with... Got to love it when you get a juicy NB mult with less than 5 minutes to go - thanks to VE9DX! Even worked the Territories a couple of times. Happy with the score? - You bet! Never met a contest yet that I didn't like! Merry XMAS and HNY to everyone from VA3DF.

Keeps things interesting, I guess. This was another joint effort with my better half, Koji VA7KO, who handled the CW portion. Interesting that our mult totals are roughly the same but our Q contributions are sizably different. It might be because I wouldn't get out of the operator's chair. LOL. Or it might be because there were other contests going on this weekend, too, that would have attracted CW operators. So many familiar callsigns in the log. So many friends dropped by to say hello. So many stations worked on several bands and some on both CW and Phone. All very much appreciated. All adding to the warm-and-friendly atmosphere of RAC Winter. Thanks to all who called and to all who heard us. All the very best to everyone at this special time of year and good health and happiness in 2012.

Even had my traditional "total loser" 90-min. nap during prime time -- just couldn't stay in the chair at 10 a.m. Saturday after getting up well before dawn to work 40M before 20M opened. Stupid, yes. But oh so restful :) Should have stayed in the "Stansfields" position (butt-in-chair), had a cup of coffee and worked through the fatigue. Didn't get nearly enough out of 15M or 10M today. Lots of good mults left on the table there. Fun to have Europe call in on 80M, which doesn't happen often at this QTH. And they were crystal clear and loud on 40M, too. Never heard YT or NU anywhere at all. Finished the final hour calling on 40M, hoping to crack 900 Qs and get one final mult (wishing for NT). And wouldn't you know it... QSO 899 was a VE8.... then two more Qs before the bell went. I am quite happy with that. Personal best saw most mults, most Qs, most points. A trifecta.

Friday night was not great, but I ended with about 4k points. It wasn't until Saturday when the RAC stations came out to play that things got interesting. I had a couple of nice runs on 15 metres, and got my rates up into what I consider were pretty good values--for me! Nice to be able to work VY2s LI & SS, but only got one NB and only a couple of NL--and NO NU! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE1OP Class: M/S HP Total Score = 159,988 SO + Telnet = M/S in this one.

Scott VE1OP ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE1RAC Class: SO CW LP Total Score = 148,092 This is the second or third time I have used the VE1RAC call sign and it is always lots of fun. Conditions, while I didn't think they were ideal, were nonetheless good enough that I could productively run most of the time. That fact plus the call sign and an improved station allowed me to beat my previous personal best in this contest of 117K from 2004. All told I worked 38 countries, the most surprising being a back-to-back UA0 followed by a JA. During quiet periods I did a reasonable amount of S&P and had the pleasure of dropping the RAC call on unsuspecting recipients. Being the occasional beneficiary of such gifts from other bonus stations or multipliers myself, I think the best part of having title to the RAC call sign is to be in the position of returning the favours. I had some nice rates gusting into the 200s and a whole hour at 90 Q/hr which is good for this station. It was fun from start to finish and my only apologies are to the smaller stations that I might have missed: I started out with serious noise here that didn't abate until late evening or otherwise I would have put lots of efforts into digging out a call sign. 30% of my QSOs were with VE stations which seems about normal for this contest from here. Kudos to VE6RAC. I got six bands from them. And from VE1OP and N0AC. And for the record (and much to my great surprise and pleasure), I was worked remotely by W1NN from JA via his station in OH on 160M, 80M, and 40M during this contest. Nice job, Hal! You keep your airplane tickets and I'll keep my log, and we will contact Guiness :) Thanks to everyone who worked VE1RAC! Gary, VE1RGB Equipment: K3 + P3; N1MM Antennas: (1) 90-foot tower coax-fed directly on 160M, 80M, and 40M and matched from the shack by the K3. The radial field is 3,000 feet.

The Beverages worked well to keep the early happy. Funny thing in N1MM...I had about 16 points in US contacts before any VE3 showed up and my score summary stayed at zero because I had no multipliers. I wish more CCO members would turn on the automatic score reporting for Live Score monitoring (in Station Config/Other tab). Just a couple of us were on. Made it QRP to VE6 but couldn't be heard in VE7 land. Glad I did this Friday night as I went to 100W LP for the Stew Perry on Saturday. Much better conditions on Saturday. Thanks for all the Qs.

Worked 168 U.S. calls, 10 DX, and 186 VE's. Decided to stay with the published band plan and hours of operation if it worked and it did - ie: CW on the bottom of the hour SSB on the top. So tried to run SSB from 00 - 30 and CW from 30 - 59 and that was only modified if I was in the middle of a productive run. It seemed to work well as I never had a quiet 30 min ( or even 10 min for that matter ) on either mode. Didn't seem like much activity when I was S&Ping. QRN was very noticable by it's absence for the night with S0 on CW on S2 - S4 on SSB. You just gotta love a quiet location. Easy to work all provinces and the West Coast stayed loud all night. Hit 100/hr on the rate meter a few times and averaged 55-60 an hour for the first 5 hours and then things slowed down a bit. On SSB worked all but NT and NU. Did work a YT but he didn't know the code so QSYing was not an option. On CW worked all but NT and YT. Did work a NU but he QSB'd into the noise before I could move him to SSB and was never heard from again. By Sunrise Saturday I opted to skip the last 2 hours of 80M Saturday night and hit the SPTBDC full on instead. Thanks for all the QSO's and Merry Christmas. 73, Brian VE3MGY ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE3RCN Class: SO Mixed LP Total Score = 128,920 Operated when I could. Lots of time there were no answers to my CQs, so I went S&P. Lots of NT and YU on the air. I even heard VE8 calling CQ a few times with no takers.

This is cool! Now, I understand what all the fuss is about! But wow, worst 10m conditions in months. Not the smartest move as I stubbornly stuck to 10m thinking that WWV and all he solar data pages were wrong! I wouldn't say that I had pileups, but it was fun - and quantum light years easier when typed from the keyboard. I sure hope that the feeling that somehow I'm cheating by using computer generated CW doesn't last too long ! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE4VT Class: SO SSB HP Total Score = 479,160 This is the first contest this fall that I didn't work a VE5 on 10m. This season has had some amazing short skip but not this time. Low bands were very noisy Friday night. My apologies to thos calling on 80m that I could not hear. S8-9 static add to that the QRM and conditions were tough. 10m didn't produce the way I hoped it would but with the SF at 122ish, it was pretty much as expected. Always a thrill when the YT and NT fellas call in. There was plenty of activity from that group this time. Really appreciate all the casual operators who get on and make this event fun. It is always a pleasure to meet old friends and exchange seasons greetings. VE4RAC was going to be staffed by a group of newly licensed amateurs. I am sure they will be bitten by the contest bug and VE4 will be even better represented in the future. This was also the first outing with the new contest callsign VE4VT. Much easier to say than VE4EAR and didn't have nearly the number of requests for repeats or swapping of letters (AER instead of EAR). So I think the test drive was a success but it is amazing how ingrained the patterns have become. Seasons greeting to all! 73 Ed ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE5CPU Class: SO Mixed HP Total Score = 533,160 Nice conditions throughout the contest. A bit slow to start, but sure picked up when 10 and 15 opened. Was not expecting 10 to be the highest QSO count for a single band.

Biggest change from last year was a 3rd CW op (Tnx Will TI2WGO) so we added a 3rd full time CW station. Obviously 10m was expected to be a factor this year and it sure was - opened well before daybreak and was a bottomless source of callers most of the day. Did not have enough ops to man all the stations all the time so instead of having SSB and CW stations operating simultaneously on all the open bands we had to flip the main station for that band back and forth, so we may have missed a few because of that. Spent virtually no time on 6 or 2 either, either than a short time when Barry VA6DX got his young boys (8 and 10 yrs old I think) to send out some CQ's on 2m FM. They were keen on doing this and they got a few answers and hopefully they can be back next year to expand on that. Murphy stayed away but still had several problems (all self inflicted by me) that caused lots of issues with N1MM and the network. The error windows had to be cleared before one could log or send CW so these were a MAJOR pain and we had to solve the issue that was causing this. It turned out that one of the 10 computers in the network had a much older N1MM version on it which caused the errors - wasn't looking for that as I made SURE that I had put the latest (and, most importantly the same version) on every computer or so I thought I had until I was checking the basics at about 3 am! Of course that was the busy 40m ssb station so couldn't do any checking until they ran out of signals for a bit. Also one UPS was overloaded and crashed several hours into the contest and that took down the network and several computers and added to our already problematic issues with N1MM. No QSO's were lost but some certainly weren't made as we were short handed so I couldn't operate and network troubleshoot at the same time. Fortunately the RF hardware behaved fine, all ICOM flavoured radios and a variety of amplifiers - well throttled back as I only have a 7.5 KVA electrical service with which to run 8 HF stations on. Propagation seemed very good on all bands, no weather QRN here or QRM other what we created locally from having 8 HF stations running at the same time. I had predicted/expected/hoped for 5000 Q's before we started and somewhere above 3 million points. The record from here of 4311 q's and ~2.7 meg was set way back in '97 and we just haven't had the conditions to get close since until yesterday, even with a LOT more antennas to choose from now. Great to say to hi to all the familiar calls and to help wave the RAC flag for a very enjoyable winter contesting event! 73 Don VE6JY with ops- Mitch VE6OH Rob VE6TR Maurice VE6MAA/VA6MA Barry VA6DX and sons Davyn and Brysen Neil VE6TCK and bringer of the chili CW from Bill VE6BF Joel VE6WQ and Will TI2WGO ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE6SQ Class: SO Mixed LP Total Score = 56,006 Bands sounded really hot Saturday.. Would have been nice to be able to work some more hours , but had fun anyway... Villy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE6TL Class: SO Mixed HP Total Score = 461,120 That was sure a grind but, by far, my best RAC effort and outcome. Was hoping for 500,000 points but fell a bit short. The toughest part was the rapid QSB for almost the entire contest. I could hear well for about 2-4 seconds and then nothing for the next 2-4 seconds. Most of the time the station would come back and we could complete the exchange, but I probably lost 10% of my contacts this way. 80m CW was the worst. But on the positive side, starting out with S7 to S9 noise across the band due to local power lines, I was able to make a ton of contacts by using my new MFJ 1026 noise canceler. On 80m, I used my shunt-fed 40' tower (with TH6 tribander capacitance hat) as my main antenna and used my expensive SteppIR BigIR vertical as my noise antenna. The two are separated by about 20' in the back yard and because of like polarization (both being verticals), work very effectively to cancel local noise. My station monitor showed at least a 20dB lowering of the noise floor across the band. Until I tried this, I had almost no QSOs on 80m for over two winters (since the noise started up). Unfortunately, it doesn't help the QSB problem - maybe it even makes it worse. But at least I can hear now! 160m was still very poor as I am using the shunt-fed tower without any additional noise cancellation. So I only heard BC, AB and MB (where was SK?). 40m SSB was a bust the first evening but improved the second (last hour). 40m CW wasn't bad but not much room to manoeuver. 20 and 15 played as expected but 10m was not quite as good as I was hoping, at least on CW. When it was open it was great, but this didn't last long here. One of the highlights was getting a call from Namibia while running on 15m. Also worked quite a bit of European and SA DX but only one JA (first night). All in all, was a really fun contest - especially being able to choose from several open bands and modes during Saturday afternoon. 73 Jerry VE6TL ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE6ZZZ Class: SOSB/80 HP Total Score = 47,460 It was a valiant attempt at the 80M SB record set by VE3BY for this contest in 97...but not to be,this time! Murphy did have his way with me...(funny how he shows up at the most inconvenient time)...no matter, I managed to prevail in spite of his efforts! Just want to say many thanks to everyone who worked me. All the best...Seasons Greetings and all that...73...Gerard, VE6ZZZ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE7CC Class: SO Mixed HP Total Score = 1,160,580 A fun contest. Conditions better than last year but not as good as I expected. Low bands were good, but activity seemed down. High bands were ok, but not as good as expected. Huge echos on 15 meter Europeans. Worst I have ever heard. It was almost impossible to work anyone until the echos finally died down. I didn't operate 20 the first night. The second day I skipped 20 meter phone until the last couple of hours. I was going to go to 20 phone when 15 and 10 slowed down, but they never did. Finally I knew I had to go there and make some contacts. So I left the pileup on 10 and went to 20 to make some contacts and get some multipliers! Very surprised to have 13 mults call me on 20 phone in the 2 hours I spent there. 721 Canadian QSOs, 997 USA Area QSOs VO1 20 VO2 3 VE8 15! VY0 3 VY1 3 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE7IO Class: SO CW HP Total Score = 114,554 One hour and fifteen minutes into the contest and I lost power due to a downed power line. At 0530Z I was back on the air using generator power and continued with emergency power until 0630Z. If I had known the power was going to be out for so long I would have started the generator much earlier something to remember for next time. Soon after the power was back I had completly forgotten about the problem totally as I was having so much fun. Thanks to all the stations who were on the air and made it into my log it is most appreciated. 73 Fred VE7IO ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE7UF Class: SO CW HP Total Score = 198,400 This was my first Canada Winter contest. I intended to make a make a serious effort, but had some other commitments delay the start by 2 hours. I left the station set up as M/M and changed bands by changing stations. I started on 20M with one 3 th6 stack at JA and the other one toward the SE. The activity was poor and very few JAs called so went to 40M where the activity was good and made 132 Qs before going to 80M. I spent the rest of Friday night alternating between low bands. I had to QRT at 10PM local for a late dinner and help my wife with xmas cards. Didn't get back on until 10AM Saturday and found 10M active but hard copy on lots on weak low power stations. So I finished the contest on 15M and 20M. I had a few EU on 40M and 20M and extremely few JAs and SAs on all bands. 95% of my Qs were from NA. A lot different from the CQWW contests. I was very concerned that N1MM was not scoring properly and found I had misinterperted the rules after I went QRT Friday night. Thats one reason I quite early Friday. I adveraged 91 Qs per hour for the whole contest and had some 200/hr rates, not bad considering the serial number was included in the exchange. I enjoyed this Canada Winter contest and it will not be my last one. Biggest mistake was starting late Saturday. Biggest supprise was an EA QRP station called me on 15M. 73, Duane VE7UF ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE7VR Class: SO Mixed HP Total Score = 14,720 This is my first participation in the Canada Winter Contest. I made all the contacts via a remote internet link to my office station which is 4KM away from my high-rise condo. Other than sporadic issues with the keyer function it worked quite well. A good tune-up for the BC QSO Party in February. I was a member of a team called ORCAanada! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE7WO Class: SO Mixed HP Total Score = 216,500 Had a great time in this one switching back and forth between phone and cw. Nice to hear the VE8's on the air for this one too. Had a short run into EU on Saturday morning but condx were difficult and calls hard to pick out. Was nice to hear from a VE3 who remembered Chuck Johnson who was the former owner of my call. I didn't know Chuck but I understand he was a top notch DXer and CW man. Great call to have!! Merry Christmas (again) 8-) and HNY!! Thanks for all the calls and working to get those Q's made under some fading and sometimes varable condx. Had a great time!! See you in BC QSO Party coming up in the New Year... 73 Brian VE7WO ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE7XF Class: SO CW HP Total Score = 243,040 Man, I'm pooped! I haven't put this much time in a contest in a few years. I made a conscious effort to work harder and take fewer breaks, and it paid off. Here's the commercial: "Stanfields - for more butt-in-the-chair comfort!" The cat stayed off the keyboard, but the power went off about 2200Z, just long enough that I had to reset EVERYTHING. Lost a few minutes there, in the middle of a run. Activity at the start seemed quite sparse, except for the bloody RTTY signals hemming us in. Seems that we're being squeezed into the bottom 25 khz of the lower bands. And the 9A contest was a surprise - I spent a lot of time on 10m to get away from the Eu sigs. Whoda thunk I'd ever say that? Otherwise, a reasonable amount of elbow room. Plasma TV and some other regularly intermittent racket makes 80m extremely difficult in the evening, and I can't get any of my two noise cancellers to make any difference. Maybe I need to work on my noise antenna - that's the next project (after I finish my 160m 'bandsmasher' vertical). Got up at 3:00 AM (1100z) to try for some east coast mults on 160-40, but they must have moved to 20+ by then. I did hear a couple of weak Gs on 20m, but that's all. Robby, VY2SS opened 20m for me at 1348z, over 2 hours before my sunrise. Sweeps with VA7BEC, VE7CC, VE7UF, VE6RAC and K9YC. I'm off to bed. I'll think of more snappy repartee tomorrow when it's too late. N1MM, K3, Acom 1000, various bits of wire, aluminum and fiberglass. Ralph, VE7XF ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE8RAC Class: SO Mixed HP Total Score = 581,854 +11 RAC What a deal, two contests with no aurora in the same year! I had lots of fun and was able to wave the RAC flag pretty evenly across all the bands. Sure glad I'm not the one who has to answer all those VE8RAC QSL requests! 73 and Happy Holidays, John VE8EV ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VE9AA Class: SOSB/20 HP Total Score = 19,400 Unable to do this one justice as too many family commitments ! Merry Christmas, one and all ! Mike VE9AA Single Band 20m 500w IC746 N1MM Antenna=5/16ths wave ground plane for 3.5MHz-> Seems to work on 20m OK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VO1KVT Class: SO SSB HP Total Score = 52,258 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Ken, VO1KVT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VY2LI Class: SO Mixed HP Total Score = 237,850 Well that was fun.What started out as a very casual effort(wasn't even sure if I would get into the test at all) ramped up to around 10 hours in the chair.Not always prime time,but much better than I expected.Missed the always exciting last hour or so of the test when everyone is scrambling for badly needed mults.For the CW ops, please forgive me for not always being able to QSY to phone.I was only doing S&P on CW (pretty much religiously on the half hour if activity dictated),which is not my comfort zone.I did comply to all requests on phone. Hats off to VE6RAC for a tremendous effort with the bonus call.Worked them on every band and mode except 80CW.Very impressive! Also,to NR5M, for their participation in the test and many entries in my log.It was great to see so many of our Stateside neighbours call in with 001.Hope we got into your log.Merry Christmas from the shack of VY2LI.73,Bill ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: VY2SS Class: SOSB/20 HP Total Score = 110,538 My goal was an old record from 2000 set by my good friend Frank VE7AV. As usual I got up early and started the contest in Europe and worked many 2 pointers before the rest of Canada woke up. My main problem was the large holes in my log due to rest periods that seem to get longer each year. Frank and I were both 11 years younger when that record was set. I was trying to talk myself into giving up as he had 24 mults and I had seen no VY1 or NU stations so the most I could get would be 22. I didn't think I could overcome the mult deficiency with QSOs. Then I nabbed a VY1 late in the day. That jumped my score and spirits a bunch. I tried to move him to CW but that wasn't happening. I was starting to lose the band and most ops had migrated to the longer waves. Then I heard another VY1. Yahoo! But he had no key. Nuts! I must remember to send him one. I carried on getting mostly mercy calls from casual ops with extremely low serial numbers and the occasional VE7 and finaly passed the record with 35 minutes to go. I worked a few more for insurance then had fun dropping the PEI mult on CQers on CW. Tired but happy I will now retire from radio contesting. At least until the RTTY Roundup in early January. Best wishes for the holidays to all and thanks for another year of fun with ham radio. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W0BH Class: SO Mixed HP Total Score = 79,024 Great band conditions into VE-land this weekend .. sorry I could only be part-time this year. Happy Holidays to all! 73, Bob, w0bh ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W0PAN Class: SO SSB LP Total Score = 2,880 Condx not real good this week-end compared to last week-end. Real quiet. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W0RO Class: SO SSB LP Total Score = 1,760 Nice contest with a decent Canadian presents. Did not spent much time in the contest due to other commitments. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W1NN Class: SO CW LP Total Score = 12,546 Operated from Tokyo using a TS-480 + Remoterig controlled over the Internet. I was only able to operate for the first three hours (from 9 AM to noon local time Saturday). After lunch activity had slowed down and we had a dinner to go to on Saturday night so I was not able to see what conditions were like on the high bands. In contrast to the RAC Canada Day contest in July, 20 was not very productive at the beginning of the contest. It was nice to work VE1RAC (piloted by my friend Gary VE1RGB) and VE6RAC on three bands. I'm sure I would have worked them on 6 bands If I had been able to get on in the daytime. Didn't this contest used to be closer to the end of December? I think I liked that better because there are few major contests in late December and too many in the first half of the month. I suppose the sponsors wanted to avoid running into the holidays. You can't make everyone happy, can you? I hope to put in more time next year. Season's Greetings to all. 73, Hal W1NN ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W2AJW Class: SO SSB LP Total Score = 9,120 Just a couple hours playing around in this one. Very pleasant and fun contest. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: W4BQF Class: SOSB/40 HP Total Score = 4,914 Started out fine, but unexpected company ended my participation quickly. 40m was going really good at the start - did not get to listen on Saturday.

I think the OK RTTY contest syphoned off a lot of ops. Hope they don't schedule both the same weekend next year. Bands seemed to be n excellent shape. Hope 160 holds up for the SP.

Tough going with a squeeky voice... gave up later on Saturday afternoon... My best wishes to all for the Holidays !

N1MM Logger Just wandered in and out of the shack off and on to have fun and pass out some points to our neighbors up north. Man were the VE8s were out in force for this one. I ended up working five of them, all on SSB (VE8GER on 20m & 15m, VE8RAC on 20m,15m & 10m, VE8YK who was QRP on 15m, VE8NSD on 15, and VE8DAV on 20m. In fact I worked 3 of them on 15m within a period of 7 minutes. Sure would like to see some of these guys on for Sweepstakes! As to whether I managed to catch any of the VY0 activity, my answer would have to be Nunavut! Managed to get at least 1 QSO with all the other Provinces & Territories though. Did mostly S&P, but did have a few short runs during which I was called by the likes of HS0ZIN in the opening minutes of the contest and by BY1RX in the 2nd hour, both on 20 SSB. 78% of QSOs were with Canadian stations. Had 18 20 point QSOs with VE/VO/VY#RAC calls. VE6RAC was everywhere. Worked that call 8 times. 4x on CW and 4X on SSB. Its nice to be far enough south here in North Texas for good propagation to Canada on the high bands. O Canada! Victor - WB0TEV ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call: WB8JUI Class: SO CW LP Total Score = 49,300 Sorry I didn't have more time to spend in this year's contest.
