Individual Sessions - 5th Jan CW
G4WGE Wow - an early CC session with half decent conditions. What next....Sunspots? G4ZFE Great condx for January. K3/100 and trapped dipole at 28 feet G7PVZ Next time - a better antenna!! Very noisy location here, high noise floor. Will try again from another location next time. Thanks to everyone!! TX - Icom 703 (10 Watts) G7VRK Here we go Again GM0ELP Using a K3 and a doublet this year. QSB and QRM sums up this evenings CC. Nice to hear everyone again in the new year. The band was busy every 200Hz or so. If a G was calling a G they got in before me with no exceptions, so patience was key this month. Happy new year to all and thanks for wrinkling me out from the QRM. GM3JKS Could not do full session GM3POI Poor Condx this time GM3ZRT Felt at times no one heard me! GM4OSS Very high noise levels. This was my worst Q rate since I started CC. GM4UYZ Could only manage 40 minutes so thought I would give it a try. Hopefully will get on longer on the next session as enjoyed what I did. Aim is to try and get my CW speed up and be able to take a run as at the moment I am not confident doing so. New Years Resolution.. GW0ETF Surprisingly lively for mid winter but still only managed my now usual mid-80/90s qso count.... GW3KDB FT1000mp 100 Watts. Doublet at 45Ft. M0AAA Great fun. Better start than last year. M0AEU Great to get back to the Club Championship, after missing it completely last year... Good start for me! M0CES Did not expect so amny on at this time of year. M0CNP Had some teeting problems last night resulting in lower than usual score. Things can only get better. Thanks everyone for the points. M0DDT Not the usual early-year propagation. I wonder why? M0KOP missed the 80M CC over the break nice to be back to them M0MDF condx were good and using SD was great. M0RBG Very enjoyable start to cc 2009 M0VBY Great Condx - Great Fun - cu next time M0XIE My first CW contest so feeling my way slowly :) M3WCK Nice to have a contest after a long break M5ALG 1st one of the year and hopefully not the last MM0BQI Great to be back and some good conditions. 100w to a low trapped dipole, works great! PA0FAW Signals were not strong but stations were good workable activity seemed to be quite ok, 3520-3530 were too many signals,in the end of the band,it was good to operate, although with my pover antenna I don't call cq, wkd stations for the wabarea for the new award.tnx points. PA0MIR Well the first contest of the year, hope to participate many more times and make lots of contacts. Always trying to improve but getting to 100 Q's in 90 minutes is hard. Well, we'll have to see where we will get with dipole and 100 Watts. SM7ZDI I have moved to Sweden, but I'm still a member of the Bristol CG and the RSGB. My UK call is G0WKW. YL3DX Ic-756proiii 100w; ant dipole. |
SOAPBOX: 2E0CVN Started a little late but ended up finding a good run freq and keeping up a good rate for the rest of the contest 2E0FFQ Plenty of activity throughout. SD lightened the load 2E0IMW My First Ever Cw Contest G0CLP/P First contest for over 15 years! Great fun can't wait for the next leg even though it was so cold! Some very strong signals only 2 cases where stations called cq on top of me! Condx good but heavy qrm G0DAY A very good night, going on last years Feb contest, I thought that this Jan. was going to be the same, how wrong you can be, all S&P a good evenening. G0DVJ checklog only for short stint G0EUN Very noisy, crowded and too fast operation. G0EYR On a bit late Band rather noisy here in the town G0FYX Lots of activity. Condx good. Enjoyable. G0IBN SD was good. Sorry everyone for repeats heavy QRM G0LHZ Great Fun - band went quiet at 20:50 but still made lots more contacts G0MRH Tail-end entry this time but 'every little helps'. G0OKF Tough going for me. G0PSE Band conx poor - but sd was perfect G0VDZ I do love my new aerial. 360 feet of wire in the air. Lovely G0WWD Very good conditions G3GLL SD worked fine with Winkeyer. Nice to have these club contests back again. Conditions seemed good here. The usual first hours rush, then bit of a struggle.- a good contest ! G3IZD Conditions did not favour the extreme NW of England. Hearing stns in S giving big numbers to stations in EU which i could not hear. The early start in January patently a success in UK generally. G3KLH Much more fun with so many stations participating G3KNU Conditions better than expected G3LDI Conditions a lot better than expected. No split E44M problems either! Still cannot compete with other areas of the UK however, very frustrating! G3LET Just managed 30 minutes at the end, after late return from a NY break. Conditions gave the impression of a much higher level of solar activity than last spring, with no noticeable skip. Just missed out on a final QSO with 2E0FFQ due to running out of time. G3LHJ Thanks for the extra month again. condx were great lots of activity G3LZQ Had to download SD as for some reason N1MM would not work at the last minute..not allowing QSO Logging. G3MIR Condx hard going G3OLB Excellent conditions - the contest was one long run! G3PSM First time I used the HF9V in a CC and guess it didn't match up to the 80M dipole for obvious reasons. I hope to have both up for CW AFS to compare the difference. G3SHF Nice lively contest to start the year. G3SJJ Excellent 1st hour with 101 Qs, then Vista played up, had to reboot so lost my Run Freq. Good fun anyway and the K3 performed very well G3TBK Better conditions than I dared to hope for. A lot of deliberate QRMing, including an idiot sending CQ with my call. Hope not too many worked him. FT1000MP, dipole at 75 ft. G3UJE Conditions much better than expected for Jan. Very enjoyable. G3VCA Better propagation than I thought it would be. Using a 2 wave delta loop & ICOM 756 pro111 G3VCQ Trying out new FT857d tonight in preparation for next BERU. Found the filtering could be a lot better and had great difficulty in sorting out signals especially weak ones! Eventually got to grips with it and it performed reasonably well never close to my FT1000mkV Field I might add though! Good conditions with heavy QSB inter UK in the last half hour. Lots and lots of weak stations I think mostly G stations but nice to hear so much activity! Happy New year all. G3VDB First attempt - interesting experience G3VIP Rig ic7000 10w - 40mtr end fed lw - homebrew logger hny to all. Nice surprise condx good, plenty of stations G3VMY New ant.First trial on 80m. G3VQO An average of one a minute - much better than expected conditions seemed generally good but with some QSB G3VYI Very good condx to G later on. Lots of activity. New Key helped a lot. Auto keying should be discouraged in these short tests! G3WRR Local noise level of S9 + 10dB, so it was all S&P! But worked nearly everything I could hear. Band much more lively than expected for early January! G3WVG FT1000mp (100w version) + dipole at 70ft Unusually good inter-UK propagation for January. G3XVR Conditions were good, but the new SO2R controller had a few teething problems. Apologies to G3KAF when my TX ended up on his frequency for a couple of minutes while my RX was on my very quiet run frequency. G3YHV Band conditions seemed good for january cc G3YMC Not one of my best, although there was plenty of activity my QRP signals had a problem getting through, and I also had a fairly noisy band. It did seem easier to work longer distance stations so perhaps the winter conditions are prevalent. G3ZBU I thought it may be an interesting experiment to try a vertical but had to call people many times before getting through except for stations on the Continent. G3ZGC Purpose jamming for 20 minutes otherwise a good contest Rig IC7700 100w to approx 130ft wire wrapped in 55ft garden. G3ZHE Much better than I thought with the critical freq below 3Mhz 10w into 90ft doublet at 30ft 73 G4AIU A good start to the year. G4BUO Wow! I would have settled for 121 Qs in a January CW contest, but I fear I'm nowhere near the leader board. Great conditions and great level of activity G4BXT Hard going! Only got the 80m antenna up this afternoon while slipping and sliding on snow! G4DDX How totaly different from last year. Nearly my best score on the first night. Can't be bad. I enjoyed the contest and using SD. Unfortunately I cannot improve my antenna. G4EBK Conditions very much better than expected. G4ELZ enjoyable G4FAL Great conditions for the first contest of the series. In previous years we have struggled to get our RF further than Rotherham from Sheffield. This may not be the year that the Mighty Blades are promoted but hopefully Sheffield ARC will surge up the table! G4FKA Fair score for January for this part of the country. Happy New Year to all participants. Off we go again! G4FNL The propagation gods seemed to shine down on me for this first event of the CC calander. My thanks to everyone for the QSO's. See you in the next one G4FON Much better conditions that I expected! A good contest G4GZB Enjoyed the 90 minutes! Got a few,but missed many! SD was a real help to this old codger! G4LMW Good opener for the year. Conditions a lot better than expected. FT-897 10w off centre fed 80m dipole at 25 feet. G4OGB Fair condx for Jan. G4OSB A nice armchair session. I drifted along at my own pace G4RCG This was supposed to be the worst session but it was great. Started half way up the band and never stopped getting calls until 9.10 when I went S&P to find the ones that had not moved. No QRM and nice big signals made it a most enjoyable contest. No M3's though G4RLS Very noisey at this qth (line time base)also minor conflict with a local TV set making the need to move into the QRP section Thankyou to all those with good ears who heard me G4TSH No time to do anything but operate from the domestic QTH here, complete with S8 noise floor. However conditions seemed to be good and found I was able to run stns despite the low power and small vertical better suited to working DX. Keying problems with Win-test and Microham that caused a few embarasing moments and could not make the "Insert" message work for 95 out of 97 QSO's! Also found that the antenna was only resonant at the bottom end of the band, so the SWR was a tad high by the time I was tuning above 3530! Might have made the ton had it not been for these small problems. FT1000, Butternut HF2V |
