    Started late, but lots of activity on the band (very noisy though).  Very good format ... more contests should be this way!

    M0PTR  
    80m QRN worse every contest - S9+ before sigs!

    G4CKH/P  
    Enjoying a caravan holiday 40 miles up the coast.  Switched rig on for a pre-arranged sked to find the band jumping with contest stations.  No chance of making my sked so joined in the fun and made contact with my pals after the band went quiet.  All good fun!

    G4OOC  
    Enjoyed the contest even tho the band was noisy.

    G3VQO  
    Only the last half-hour as the "Tour of Britain" cycle race coverage on TV was more attractive than a contest on SSB!  Thought I'd got the wrong date as I started tuning from the top - all the activity seemed to be below 3650.

    G3WVG  
    Only managed the last 15 minutes.

    SOAPBOX:

    GW4BLE   
    Antenna repaired since last time - certainly makes a difference

    G4FSU   
    My first sprint.  Enjoyed the format, still needs more people on though - very slow at times.  And no-one told the QRN gods that summer was cancelled this year!

    G4RCG   
    Very noisy and slow start, lots of EU stations not very happy with the contest.  I heard quite a few nasty comments from them to stations trying to work the test.  Apart from that, enjoyed it but activity was definitely down on last time.

    G0MTN   
    More activity this time.  Horrendous QRN, coupled with several band policemen made it an upsetting experience.

    G8FCQ   
    Good fun as ever!

    G4FNL   
    Not quite a sprint - more a leisurely stroll!  Let's hope we can get more people joining in the future Sprint contests.  My thanks as ever to everyone for the QSOs.

    G4FAL  
    Lots of static and too few participants - but fun, nonetheless.

    G3HRH   
    Bit noisy but very enjoyable.  Haven't yet got the hang of whose frequency it is, but I'm not the only one!

    G4ZFE   
    Despite the heavy QRN, inter-UK signals were good.  Some regulars were missed.

    MM0GPZ   
    Started 25 minutes late due to other commitments.  Think I have the longest name in the test.  Everyone I worked except Graham G4FNL had a shorter name.  I'll maybe morph into GOR for the next one :-)

    GW0ETF   
    Impressively high noise levels on the band.

    G3RRL   
    First Sprint contest - and very enjoyable.

    G0VGS   
    Sometimes difficult conditions but good signals all round.  Great fun again!

    PA40MIR   
    For once home on Thursday evening decided to hand out my special call in this event.  In spite of the problems I think everybody got it right, HI!

    G7SKR   
    Vy QRN at the start and slow going.  Seemed to be even fewer people than the last one.  Still fun, though.

    G0FYX   
    Getting used to the format now.

    G3ZHE   
    A good night for low-lying North Cheshire.  Lots of fun.

    G0KYS   
    Seemed quieter than last month, but still fun.

    G6UBM   
    Noisy, but fun.

    G0ICJ   
    High static levels.  The Sprint contest is fun.  I have now downloaded the latest SD, which works very well.

    G4GZB   
    This was a first time for me!  I enjoyed the challenge and certainly made good use of the SD programme.
