G4LMW
Didn't try the sprints last year so tonight was my first. Got completely confused. Have set N1MM up all wrong so keyed all of it by hand (sorry to those at the other end!) But great fun and I'm looking forward to the next one.

G4OGB
Good condx good fun

G4RCG
Slow start and a bit fiddly to start with but really enjoyed it. Wish people would stick to the proper exchange quite a few well known calls were only giving one call in the exchange!!!!

G4WGE
The initial plan was to make 1 QSO to keep 'FNL happy. Got a bit carried away and made 27. Rather addictive.

GM3YEH
First attempt at a sprint - good fun.

GW0ETF
Noisy conditions but enjoyable. Clearly popular with the PA guys!

M0NQN
Quieter than usual - it made a pleasant change!

MW0RZC
good

PA0MIR
Just home from holidays finished reinstalling the 80 m dipole this afternoon so was able to make some contacts sloppy of course in the beginning with old handkey but later got back to  the keyboard which improved I hope my exchanges.

PA3AM
Nice to join Sprint again this year. Conditions and activity were not to good but 31 qso's in the log. 100 watts in G5RV.

SOAPBOX:

G0IBN
Very enjoyable gets the grey matter moving

G0MTN
60 mins QRV - guess I should have done the whole session.

G0TZZ
Sent in unchanged but next time I will read the rules better. Can only blame myself.

G3GLL
SD works ok for this event- it's the bloke on the keyboard who is not so good !! Could do with a bit more activity for this one

G3HRH
Not so much activity. A number of well known calls missing
Why does everyone cramp into the first 30 kHz?

G3JRM
I seem to feel a little more comfortable with the format this year though not reflected in my totals still had a great time and I'll be back next month for another crack at it. some noisey condx here but to be expected this time of the year.

G3LHJ
Good fun qrn made it a bit hairy for qrp wrkg from
down here in Sunny Devon  CU in the next one
73 de Der G3LHJ

G3OLB
10.0 watts from K3 and dipole at 60 feet.

G3RSD
More of a stroll than a sprint

G3SNU
Trio 830 & 170 ft doublet

G3TBK
Nice to not have to grab a freq before the start!
Ft1000mp 100w dipole at 55 feet

G3TLH
This time remembered to plug in aerial but not the PSU
so got a low battery warning in middle of contest. Not
a lot of activity.

G3TXF
Sprints are not as hectic as the 80m CCs but are nevertheless fun!

G3VDB
AN interesting new experience!. Vacant frequencies at the end of other QSO's. One way exchanges given and received!

G3VQO
I'm getting better at the Sprint format, but I still do not enjoy it. Hence, at 9pm, "New Tricks" seemed a more attractive option than continuing.

G3WVG
100W to a dipole.  Good fun but only for the first 30 mins.

G3ZRJ
Very enjoyable as always a little more activity from some of the "leading lights" would have been nice.  Many of the big sigs in cc contests missing. Shame stns wouldn't spread out more across allocation.   Sd worked superbly thanks ei5di

G4BUO
Was hoping there would be more activity this year - no sign yet though there were some new callsigns, who were most welcome

G4EBK
Quiet again where were you all? Not a popular format it seems.

G4FAL
Had forgotten entirely how it worked with the names and so spent the first 10 minutes trying to sort out why Wintest had all the Zone stuff in it. Thought I had a relic from another contest. Lets hope for a few more folks in the SSB leg.
