    G4FNL
    Good inter-G conditions throughout the contest. My QSO rate for the first hour was 104 which is about right - but there seems to be very little differnce between the top scores in terms of QSO numbers. It would appear to all be down to log accuracy

    G4IUF
    Better than last time, more EU participation also
    Enjoyed using SD

    G4OGB
    Condx picking up, making the session more enjoyable.
    SD worked fine

    G4OOC
    SD was as usual superb Really Enjoyed it this evening

    G4RCD
    Late home, missed first few minutes, but got a run frequency and stuck to it throughout. SD and Winkey worked fine.  SD told me that I deserve extra points for a QSO with EI5DI...
    is that correct!!?? (Adjudicators notes - NO !)

    G4RCG
    Started off really well but slowed down after 1st 30 mins,

    G6MC
    Good conditions from the North of England

    G7VRK
    mixw worked well as all ways

    G8MIA
    Conditions were good for the whole contest

    GW0ETF
    My first 80m CC of this year. Seemed a nice lot of
    new callsigns on show compared to last year....

    GW3KDB
    FT1000mp Doublet at 45ft.  100 Watts For the first 30mins was subjected to deliberate QRM with foul language regarding contesters.

    M0AJT
    Conditions seemed better this time, enjoyed it.
    Used Super Duper again. Thanks Paul.

    M0BPQ
    Elecraft K2 and bit of wire 10W o/p.  15 min phone call in the middle didn't help!

    M0CES
    Most stns very loud..Nice contest

    M0CNP
    Conditions good until about 2000, and deteriorated
    rapidly thereafter. Still, most enjoyable.

    M0CUL
    Only 8.  5 more than last time!

    M0MDF
    condx were'nt too bad tonite.

    M0NZA
    Very busy and very enjoyable. Good Morse practice too!
    Thanks for the contacts

    M3WCK
    My Best contest so far. Conditions held up well and
    again thanks to operators who slowed down. I do not
    remember asking for a repeat

    M5ALG
    Conditions not bad this time. SD good as usual

    MM0GPZ
    Very noisy band tonight.

    MM0RKT
    Quite nice condx, for once.

    PA0FAW
    Very noisy band, signals not strong but worked them
    easier than last month. Still a nice contest.

    PA3AM
    Again exciting, good conditions and a new personal record!
    QRP Section.

    SOAPBOX:

    2E0TBV
    Only my second contest. Really hooked now. Very good

    G0ADH
    Excellent conditions

    G0DAY
    This is more like it, good sigs  over the evening
    most enjoyable

    G0DVJ
    Great fun as usual. Lots of activity. Enjoyed using new radio
    Will learn how to use it soon :)

    G0FYX
    Condx good. SD used post contest.

    G0IBN
    Very enjoyable, more contests should be of this length
    keeps the xyl happier

    G0LHZ
    Started late - but great fun

    G0LZL
    Good event but QRS section 20 kcs with only 2 or 3 ops
    calling CQ and 3.520 to 3.550 packed with stations. Suggest you make QRS section 10 kcs smaller and open up the band a bit more for the other 97% but still a very good contest

    G0MTN
    Whinge #1: If I call "G4?", if you're a G3 please QRX. Maybe it's sometimes acceptable in an international contest or pileup, but in a domestic contest, don't you think there might be a real G4 calling?
    Whinge #2: If you call me a second time for a dupe QSO, don't clear off after realising your mistake leaving me to send your exchange (twice) before realising you'd gone. "SRI B4" or going through with the QSO would have been fairer.
    Whinge #3: If you're trying to stake out a frequency before the start, at least make the effort to use it.
    Sitting there, acknowledging "QRL?" with "R" and going back to listening is perhaps not in the spirit.
    Whinge #4: Wait for a TU before disappearing. On two QSOs I immediately queried a number or callsign but didn't get any response. It's your loss (as well as mine) as I deleted the QSOs as they were not complete.
    .
    G0OKF
    Conditions appear to be improving. SD works FB as usual

    G0UHM
    Very good

    G0WKW
    This is my last contest from UK before I am off to live in Sweden - always a nice event and many thanks to you all.
    Hope to start working you all soon from SM-land! 73s de Vic

    G3GWB
    Aaaargh!  Computer crashed again - paper logging
    saved the day.

    G3HRH
    Much QRM.  Band started to get noisy around 20.15

    G3IZD
    At last conditions better for UK working from NW of G
    Good to see so many of those for whom CW is not a second
    language having a good try at CW contesting instead
    of whinging, full marks to Clubs for encouragement

    G3JNB
    Good conditons.

    G3KAF
    Very good conditions this evening

    G3KNU
    What a difference an hour makes, sorry when it ended.
    Good propagation to all parts of UK and Europe.
    Tried the latest version of SD worked FB.

    G3LDI
    Better conditions tonight, more taking part too. Still some sending a number, e.g. 52, instead of 052. This does tend to
    throw you at first! Good to hear several M3 stations sending nice CW.

    G3LPC
    My first CC contest under excellent condx

    G3OLB
    Good condx throughout contest (for a change!)

    G3PDH
    Much better condx and lots of participants. Our contest training activities are paying off this year!

    G3PHO
    Good inter G conditions now we're on BST. Calling CQ at the start never seems to work for me! So went S and P after 3 minutes of no replies. Had QRM from a couple of ops who seem to use audio tone generated computer CW!

    G3RHH
    Plenty of activity and strong signals from G stations

    G3RSD
    Used"sd" worked perfectly

    G3SHF
    Good conditions were a pleasant change. Very enjoyable.

    G3SVD
    My best cw effort to date. I did better than I expected and really
    enjoyed myself.

    G3TBK/P
    IC706 MKllG 10 watts. Antenna 70 ft end fed wire thrown over two trees, about 30 ft up. /P from Rosedale Abbey Caravan Club Site, North York Moors. Site in dale with high hills all round. Condx seemed quite good, steady scoring despite QRP and very poor antenna.

    G3TKF
    Wow ! - conditions for a change were really good !
    and why is it that some people just don't listen before they call CQ on a frequency? ?

    G3TLH
    Quite good conditions throughout. My best score for
    some time.

    G3VIP
    RIG IC7000 10W - 50M LW - Homebrew logger
    Good condx, best score on CC

    G3VPW
    Improving on last month, slow starter still Hi !

    G3VYI
    Some very big sigs good activity. Lots of GM's  and new calls
    Good  to work lots  with 20W Fixed HRO  just in time again !

    G3WRR
    Serious problems - just didn't seem to be getting out
    this time. Investigations clearly required! Something
    odd in the antenna department....

    G3WVG
    FT1000MP (100W version) + dipole at 70ft
    Condx for UK (here in Surrey) were excellent tonight.

    G3XVR
    I thought conditions were going to die again at 19:45, but the band picked itself up again towards the end.

    G3YEC
    Another good 80M contest. Conditions good and nice to
    hear some of the newer calls on. SD as good as ever -
    Thanks Paul

    G3YMC
    Good contest, conditions good for inter G for a change.
    Activity seemed a bit down, but plenty to keep me occupied.
    73 Dave G3YMC

    G3ZBU
    reasonable condx even at the end.

    G3ZGC
    Deliberate data jamming right at the start.
    Conditions good and plenty of Eu stations worked.
    QSO 124 went well over 2030z so has been discounted.

    G3ZHE
    A better night. I dont seem able to make writelog to send my category so .Single op, 100watts, 55 claimed.
    Hand sent cw from ic7700 ant 90ft doublet 30ft up
    and 30ft asl
    73 and thanks for running the contest

    G3ZVW
    Good conditions and plenty of activity.

    G4ABX
    Conditions not great for a vertical! Good contest

    G4ARN/P
    Good fun but local qrm a problem

    G4BUO
    Tons of activity - 10 callsigns still on my gotaway list at the end

    G4BZP
    hand morse, using clipboard for log and operating pos
    was the drivers seat of my car.  A touch less posh
    than some shacks

    G4CKH
    Due to a shack relocation and taking down my long wire
    antenna, it completly slipped my mind about the cc cw thus i only caught the last half hour. Still -- enjoyed none the less.

    G4DDX
    Much better conditions,I was able to spend longer running this time and enjoyed it. Bands certainly better now.
    I used SD as usual

    G4EBK
    Cdnx good through to the end. SD 10.15 still working perfectly.

    G4FAL
    Up the Blades - promotion next season?

    G4FKA
    Completely rewired antenna and feeder so normal service resumed! Good signals and good conditions throughout.
