    SOAPBOX:

    2E0CVN
    1st entry in this years events due to working nite shifts! Nice to see a lot of activity. C u in CW :)

    2E0NCG
    Good Condx but much QRM from continental stations!

    G0ADH
    Crowded, but fun.

    G0AJJ
    Lots of activity. Better score than last month.

    G0GDU
    Noisy band and some very big signals (59+40?) Stuck to S+P

    G0IBN
    long live cw

    G0ICJ
    Nice and easy to operate

    G0KDS
    A lot of QRM from the bigger stations.

    G0KYS
    Didn't find a frequency until 2005Z so manly S&P

    G0LGJ/M
    Very crowded

    G0MTN
    Had to give up run frequency to record "Come Dine with Me" for YL. Went S+P after that.

    G0OKF
    Enjoyed SD -- as usual. Much qrm for me.

    G0RAF
    Rather crowded on the band, very noisy

    G0RXA
    This was my second 80 Metre event and what activity.
    Hard work, but an enjoyable hour and a half.

    G0UIQ
    good  contest

    G0WJX
    Used SD to log for first time and found it excellent.

    G0WWD
    Band conditions very good.

    G1EUA
    My first attempt at a Contest, would not call it enjoyable, but must support TARS, will do better next time.

    G3GLL
    SD worked fine.
    Band very noisy - I could only hear the strong ones !

    G3HRH
    Very hard going with heavy QRM

    G3IZD
    Band very very busy so often difficult copy

    G3LDI
    What a mess! Lots of stations struggling through the QRM, including me. Could not find a run frequency until 9 p.m.

    G3LHJ
    The QRM wall to thick this time, very hard going down here in the deep south. SD worked like a dream also with the voice box.

    G3LIK
    Lot of interference and splatter. Good to hear some familiar calls. Great to log with SD

    G3MXH
    Started a little late . Found the band very busy
    but great fun. Conditions quite good into near Europe.

    G3NPF
    Good conditions again but QRM levels were incredible, with
    no "clear" frequencies anywhere. At least the operating was
    reasonably good. I can handle very strong signals but not
    when they are over compressed, distorted and 15kHz wide.

    G3OLB
    Noisy band but quite good going tonight! Had the usual fight with the computer in the middle of the contest.

    G3PYC
    SD is a must for me

    G3RCM
    Excellent band condx tonight lots of high scores and it was nice to be amongst them for a change!  Thanks all 73

    G3RRL
    Good enjoyable contest once again.

    G3RSD
    Used "sd" worked perfectly

    G3SJJ
    Since it had a been a hot day I decided to do a /P type effort from our summerhouse in the garden hence the echo effect. K3 performed well under crowded band conditions. Most callers were relatively weak yet high scoring stations strong suggesting they had better antennas. An interesting array of operating techniques, I even got a "Negatory"!!
    K3 and dipole at 57ft. N1MM.

    G3SVD
    This time I chose a bad frequency - very bad! It belonged to some German speaking operators. From the out set  I was jammed by tones which I was able to work through. Then they started a qso on the frequency, I was still  able to work through them with difficulty but then on came the linear, S9+60 on on the meter, with the attenuator in! I had to give up and go S&P!

    G3SWC
    Plenty of inter-G but GM's much weaker than usual.

    G3TBK
    IC7000, 10 WATTS, DIPOLE AT 35 FEET
    Hard work with QRP, some huge signals around.

    G3TXF
    Conditions stayed stable for inter-UK throughout the contest.
    Was fortunate enough to find a frequency at the beginning
    and maintain it for the whole 90 minutes. Had 120Qs in the log after the first hour and 180 gross (179 net) at the end.

    G3VCA
    A good contest with reasonable conditions-the usual
    1KHz spacing: a large Brandy required post contest.

    G3VIP
    RIG IC7000 10W - 50M LW - Homebrew logger
    A wall of noise, this surely can't be classed as fun!!

    G3VPW
    Still getting faster at the run !

    G3WVG
    ft1000mp (100w) version + dipole at 70ft

    G3YEC
    Good conditions. But when oh when are the RSGB going to monitor these SSB contests. Too many home stations sit on a frequency and work a "string" of callers before even giving once their own callsign. This is against the RSGB Rules but nothings done.

    G3YHV
    very noisy band and poor signals

    G3YOA
    Very busy

    G3ZBU
    loads of qrm but great fun all the same!

    G3ZGC
    G3YOA a dupe. Constatly jammed by data.
    Rig IC7700 to 132 ft wire wrapped round 55 ft garden. 100w.

    G4ABX
    Variable conditions, but lots of activity. Good contest. Best ever score!

    G4ARN/P
    Terrible static but managed ok

    G4BUO
    Not so good this month!

    G4CZB
    Late start but first time with the K2 on SSB - very impressive strong signal performance, every bit as good as on CW.

    G4DDX
    Very busy once again and quite a challenge which makes
    it most enjoyable I used SD as usual and would be lost
    without it

    G4EBK
    A struggle from start to finish.

    G4EOF
    Superb night on the radio.

    G4ERW
    Used new 260ft doublet antenna. Fast and furious -
    except for last 20 minutes!

    G4FNL
    Condx seemed good to me. Thanks to all for the QSOs

    G4FQI
    1.6kc spacing is not enough!!!

    G4GZB
    Lots of QRM, but the time flew by. SD again gave a good account of its self

    G4IPZ
    Absolute bedlam - but fun (Other than certain EU stations deliberately tuning up and sending sstv) but the new long wire worked a treat. Roll on next month!

    G4IUF
    Noisier band this time. Enjoyed using SD

    G4OOC
    Once again SD worked Flawlesly
    SD really is brilliant HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

    G4RCD
    Unable to find a run frequency.  Very crowded band.
    S&P for most of contrest until very near to end of
    contest.  Must get into the shack earlier!

    G4RCG
    Great session, but very noisy only got the regular
    jammers once, slowed right down just after 21.00 so
    went off S & P and picked up the few I had missed

    G4WBV
    Very noisy band conditions

    G5KC
    Better results with simple dipole 3' above ground !
    Enjoyed using SD - its getting easier to use !

    G7RFB
    Lots of Qrm

    G7SKR
    Very crowded tonight. Score still improving!

    G7VRK
    Lot of deliberate qrm from german stations
    but conditions good  sd worked well as allways

    G8FMJ/P
    Good conditions again great fun. Thanks to all who worked me. Apologies to those I didnt hear

    G8NRP
    Very noisey band until darkness

    G8YMW/P
    Very noisey

    M0AAA
    This month I tried the G5RV and doubled last months
    QSO's. I don't think the 60M vertical on the Helikite
    is not any use for short skip into the UK.

    M0CNP
    At long last the band was open to the end of the contest
    Unfortunately lost a quarter of an hour from a phone
    call I had to take! Otherwise, as usual, most enjoyable
    and thanks everyone for the points.
