    Overall QSO count for this contest was lower for me than some past efforts, but 15M opening up to Europe on Sunday let me work many countries that I hadn't worked in a long long time on that band. 80M seemed less jam-packed too, letting me break throug... Read More

    I operated QRP in the contest. I was expecting poor conditions but ended up with 40 more QSO's than last year. 80 meters was great Friday night. 20 was fantastic Sunday and even 15 opened up to Europe on Sunday. It just goes to show that even at the so... Read More

    I think I put in a respectable effort this year. I took the plunge and operated QRP and single band 40 meters. I had no countries to snag and nothing to prove so I could afford to take the challenge less seriously this year and have a load of fun. The... Read More
