G7SKR  
Conditions much better this time.  Nice that PSK was busier although this was countered by some poor, overdriven signals.

G7SOZ  
Interesting propagation at the start with lots of QSO on sigs.

G7VRK  
Best yet this year.

GM0ELP  
Had a go at PSK tonight using K3 and CW paddle.  Great fun!  Sri to anyone wondering why my TX was slow.  Thanks to all who worked me.

GM3SEK  
RTTY only, so this was a contest within a contest within a contest.

GW4BLE  
ARRGGHH!!!!!

GW4BVE 
Good one!  Thanks for the super fast results service - it really makes contests more enjoyable.

M0AAA  
Really hard work with the FT817 and 5 watts.

M0AEU  
Should have called CQ earlier.  Good evening after a slow start.

M0BPQ  
Got bored after a few minutes so gave up and watched TV instead.

M0CNP  
Skip seemed all over the place until the latter stages of the contest.  Thanks everyone for my points - most enjoyable, as ever.

M0DIW  
Good evening to all

M0JCM  
First competition!

M0NKS  
Lots more stations on PSK tonight.  Time flew by and the contest was over ... what a shame!

M0OXO  
Enjoyable contest - good contacts in Europe too!

M0VBY  
First time mixed RY and PS - interesting!

M0WTG  
Late start and some variable propagation problems.  Overall good, though.

M1ADX  
Much better conditions than last month but fading on PSK31 was a problem.

M6CMG  
Quite enjoyable, in a sadistic way.

MM0GHM/P  
Just managed last 15 mins due to work.

MM0GPZ  
Plenty of big signals to work but unable to run
from here, unfortunately.

MW0CVT  
A good contest for me but a very steep learning curve on data modes.  Thanks to all who were patient with me.

ON9CSV  
Hi!  Stumbled onto this near the end of the contest ... leaves plenty of room for improvement, I suppose.

SOAPBOX:

2E0RFS   
Getting better.  Some QRM giving garbage on decode.

2E0TQR   
My antenna should be over the other side of the hill - not me !!!

DL2SAX   
My first RTTY contest.  There is a large space for improvements.

G0AJJ   
Better conditions than last month.  My best score to date.

G0DAY   
Started off slow but signals picked up.  Nice to see some new calls.

G0DVJ   
Just testing new shack set-up in 10 minutes ... not a serious entry ... just wanted to make a couple of Qs and hopefully more next time.

G0DWV   
Making PSK and RTTY work in the same contest does not test your station or operating skills ... only your IT skills.  MY PC and PSK do not mix well ... RTTY is faultless!

G0GFQ   
Enjoyable evening.

G0IBN   
Honestly, I will get better !!

G0KYA   
Not bad - much better condx than last.

G0RAF   
Crowded band.

G0SIQ   
It was a quiet night.

G0TZZ   
More enjoyable than previous contests, but the operator has still not got it all right, HI!

G1RVP   
Good fun.  Thanks to all.

G2YL   
Conditions a lot better.

G3HRH   
Either everyone was busy doing PSK31 or propagation didn't favour the South Coast.  At least the rig worked correctly this time.

G3IZD   
I am still getting to grips with this mode, but a little further up the learning curve.

G3KAF   
Had a 20 minute delayed start due to software and finger problems!  Great inter-G conditions though.

G3LDI   
PSK for contesting is like watching paint dry!

G3LHJ   
Not so good this session - really hard work.  Lots of weaker sigs.

G3MXH   
Much more activity on PSK31 this time.  Conditions were good but my operating skills leave much to be improved upon!  Must come to terms with a compatible logging programme for this mode.  Great fun - looking forward to the next one!

G3ORY   
Decent propagation at last.  PSK is not the same as RTTY.  The ultra snappy short call often fails because the receiver can not lock up in time on PSK.  Please extend your calling macros, guys!

G3PDH   
Conditions much improved but PSK is tedious and technically not suited to contest operation.

G3TLH   
Conditions better than the last one.  I do enjoy sending RTTY on my paddle key.  Makes data QSOs just as spontaneous as operating CW.

G3TXF   
It's a busy 90 minutes, particularly with there being, in effect, two contests running side by side.  Did better on PSK than ever before but it's still a struggle on that mode.  Am making progress into the digital world, but only very gradually.

G3UJE   
This contest is the definition of frustration!

G3VCA   
This contest was enjoyable with good clear conditions.  Lets hope these conditions continue into the following contests.

G3VDB   
Best condx so far.  RTTY is such hard work compared to PSK - impossible to find an RTTY freq below 3600 - poor copy probably due to multiple replies.

G3VIP   
Condx very much better.  Going well on RTTY but slowed down on PSK.  Does anyone really like this format for Data CC??

G3XSV   
Good conditions at last!  PSK activity was high.

G3ZBU   
Reasonably busy.  Logged with SD as usual, but tried MMVARI for the first time.  It worked well but has lots of features I have not tried yet, like logging and macros.

G3ZGC   
RTTY great but I am now won over with PSK!

G4ABX   
Band conditions were pretty good for a change!

G4EBK   
Better result this time from east coast of England.  Complete waste of last 20 minutes using PSK for 3 Qs.  Feel I could have had at least 10 more if I'd stayed on RTTY.

G4FAL   
Conditions seemed to pick up.

G4FKA   
Very disappointing score, given the conditions.

G4FQI   
One day I will get this PSK working!

G4FSU   
Thanks to all.  Better than the last data session!  Band went long after about 2100.

G4LMW   
Disaster ... hated it!  Murphy was in charge.  Started on PSK where one station splattered the entire 3kc slot.  Sound card lost audio 5 times.  Had to re-boot PC each time.  Changed logging program halfway through.  Not fun at all.  Taking up fishing now!

G4LWB   
Good conditions.  Much QRM.

G4OGB   
Not many takes above 3600.

G4RCG   
Great fun - best I have ever done on a DATA test.

G4TPO   
First time on RTTY contest - will be back!

G4WGE   
Got it into my head that tonight was SSB.  PANIC!!!  Rapid reconfiguration.  The noises coming out of the rig didn't exactly sound healthy.  Master reset.  Re-enable all the necessary options.  And we're off, and only 10 minutes late!

G4WUG   
Condx getting better at last.  Good contest - look forward to the next one.

G6FOP   
Terrible splatter from some PSK stations ... people need to read up on PSK operation.
