    M0AAA
    Very disapointing result. I had the Helikite up with a
    60 metre vertical on (3/4 wave). I think most of my signal was
    missing the UK. I will try a half wave next time

    M0AJT
    Enjoyed using SD logger but that was about all. Roll on CW.

    M0BPQ
    What a racket! Got bored being last in the queue all the time so gave up... Elecraft K2, Inverted L at 20 feet

    M0CES
    Too many folk on.

    M0CNP
    Nice to see conditions improving, almost to 2030

    M0CUL/P
    Entered from on holiday.  Busy as ever!

    M0FRH
    Thanks to all who worked me, SD great as always

    M0KOP

    M0SCG
    Great Contest

    M0SPC
    Hectic as usual, good fun

    M0WTG
    Enjoyed this one. SD working great.

    M0WYB
    Swapped the end fed for a 80m dipole and what a surprise - my best ever score!

    M0XDF
    A lot of QRM and a lot of contestants

    M0XJP
    Always enjoy these short contests, strong QRM though

    M1KAH
    Horrible , totally wrong times for me !

    M1PTR
    Excellent conditions and pleased with the result

    M3RCV
    Glad condx were back to normal!

    M3UJL
    really struggled tonight ... SWR all over the place

    M3WYX
    nice contest good run at the beginning but drastic
    crackling on band from local industrial park meant we
    had to resort to s and p..

    MM0GPZ
    Getting harder to be heard down south again. Some huge G signals this month.

    PA0MIR
    Nice to hear such good activity. Will try to be there more often in the future. Only the thursday is not possible generally

    PA7PYR

    SOAPBOX:

    2E0KXD
    Due to family commitments I could only get on for the last half hour

    2E0RFS
    Heavy QRM made this contest hard work

    G0AFQ
    Second attempt at cabrillo format

    G0AJJ
    Nice to hear so much activity.

    G0DVJ
    Rushed entry from alternative location tonight. Lots of activity as usual. No way could I get a frequency to run tonight

    G0FYX
    Reasonable condx. SD used in contest.

    G0HSA
    An enjoyable contest. For a change the propagation was there for inter G, SD was performing well as usual

    G0ICJ
    good condx lots of strong stations

    G0IIQ
    Very Noisy - Hard Work

    G0JLF
    What a Zoo!

    G0KDS/P
    new expierience /p 1200ft ASL with a straight dipole at 20ft, in the club champs

    G0LGJ
    False start in car RF getting in system. Good conditions at last

    G0MLY
    My first entry in an RSGB HF contest! Very enjoyable - mores so when I found a clear frequency on which to call CQ! Search & pounce worked well too though, so an enjoyable experience for a first time!

    G0MTN
    Busy.

    G0OKF
    Conditions much better that last ssb Contest.
    SD as usual performed faultlessly.

    G0ORH
    There was a lot of skullduggery going on. Recordings were being played back, false callsigns, serial numbers were sent by others over the top of info being passed. The RSGB wants to have a look at this, it's getting beyond a joke!


    G0RAF
    Very enjoyable evening. First time with SD log.
    it worked a treat.


    G0RXA
    First time participation, hard work but fruitful

    G0SIQ
    Band was noisy

    G0UHM
    Very good

    G0UIQ
    was good contest . no time for a tea.
    thanks all for the points

    G0VGS
    Great conditions finally, some interesting audio though

    G0VJG
    Tks g4buo 4 kick up bum and getting us on air

    G0WJX
    Ten Tec Orion 1.  Extended 1/2 G5RV


    G0WWD
    Plenty of activity and good conditions

    G1JCC
    Very good contest but only worked search and pounce. Band seemed good.

    G1OAC
    conditions were very bad

    G3GLL
    SD was ok

    G3HRH
    Very busy and noisy. QRM from non-contest SSTV and EU

    G3IZD
    Much better condx for inter-G working so some enormous signals and much QRM. Again good to contact so many stns obviously new to contesting no doubt encouraged by their clubs

    G3JRM
    lots of stations on top of each other making copy
    difficult none the less enjoyed

    G3KAF
    Raising ant height has made a hugh difference. Enjoyable as always.

    G3LDI
    Wonderful now that Thomas, PA1M has written some RSGB modules for us UK people!  Propagation was a whole lot better tonight as well, with lots of stations on.

    G3LHJ
    Less holes to find this time - lots of QRM - Big
    turn-out - 73 Derrick.

    G3LIK
    Not a good one had cold/cough. Lots of wide spread interference from QRO stations. At least I was able to take part
    Great to use SD for logging

    G3NDJ
    band condx good SD good to use


    G3NPF
    Good conditions for a change

    G3OFA
    Kenwood with 100 Watts    Long wire

    G3PHO
    Excellent conditions! The first time I have managed to run a frequency throughout the contest.I thought I was doing really well until I was told at the end that some had exceeded 200 (again!). However that's a PB for me so far so I'm well chuffed.
    I'll miss the May contests but will be thinking of you all at
    1900z from the distant shores of VK/ZL!

    G3RCM
    One Dup - removed. Great conditions and the inverted V erected for the contest worked very well. Heavy QRN S9+ towards the bottom end of the band persisted at this QTH.
    Lots of strong signals around though - enjoyed the odd pile up too!

    G3RRL
    Good contest lots of qrm who cares!

    G3RSD
    Used "sd" worked perfectly

    G3SVD
    Another enjoyable HFCC contest. This year there seem to be more Stations from GM land active  and a good number of PAs giving points away. The PAs were the only Non- UK stations I worked this time. Some M3s and 2E0s also seemed to be doing well.

    G3VPW
    Continue to improve the score rate, had a better
    run for the latter part of the contest. Proved that S&P
    is not quite so productive in the 80m CC !

    G3WYW
    1st 45 Mins a waste of time as S9 QRM.but after that
    band cleared up and started to be heard!

    G3YEC
    Extremely noisy tonight. Again some big signals. When oh when is the RSGB going to do something about the stations that just call QRZ? after a QSO and do not give their callsign after each QSO (contrary to the Rules as given by the RSGB). COME ON RSGB

    G3ZBU
    excellent conditions this time.

    G3ZGC
    Just a bandful of QRM!

    G3ZHE
    single op. 100watts. 90ft doublet 30ft up. A much better night
    with stations all the way to the end. Sorry I cant get info to go
    with writelog 73 Thanks

    G3ZVW
    Good conditions and lots of activity.

    G4ARN/P
    good fun but local qrm a problem

    G4BUO
    Tried QRP for a change. S+P was hard for the first half hour and I kept getting beaten by 100w stations but then conditions changed and I got lucky, finding a CQ frequency which I managed to hold to the end.

    G4CKH
    Very busy on the band.

    G4DDX
    Found the band very crowded and noisy. Unable to find
    a space to CQ. used SD as usual

    G4ELY
    Hard going with only one usable hand. The other in a sling

    G4FKA
    Bit of a disaster all round. Good frequency initially but 3 minutes before the start some kind souls started a local QSO 250Hz HF and an S9+30 commercial crud generator started LF. Couldn't find another frequency so in desparation resorted to S&P. Very busy band with everyone QRMing each other!

    G4FQI
    Busy wansnt it? and getting the hang of SD logging

    G4GZB
    Certainly enjoyed using SD again

    G4IPZ
    One day I must get a working antenna installed !
    If only I could have worked all that I heard!

    G4IUF
    Good start, but got QRMd off by YUs !! Enjoyed using SD

    G4IWS
    Hard work but SD makes it easier


    G4OGB
    What a racket. SD super again.

    G4OOC
    very noisy band conditions But SD was Superb as usual
    SD really is the tops in Logging progs

    G4RCG
    Great session but very very noisy I had to move
    off my run freq when two stations sat on top of me
    and would not move so I had to go S&P

    G4TPO
    Good conditions
