    SOAPBOX:

    G3WVG   
    Great to see increased support from French and Welsh stations! With this level of activity it would make a good 60-minute contest.

    G0MTN   
    This is more like it!  Never ran out of people to work, good fun trying to keep up with other entrants. Great Non-UK support too.  On occasion I heard 3 people call the same station.  Other ragchew QSOs were going on amongst the Sprint activity - a more or less peaceful co-existence.  Great to hear so many new (to me) callsigns getting stuck in.

    G3TXF   
    Nice to hear increased participation from France.  Just another few hundred participants and we'll then have a humdinger of a contest!

    G4FNL   
    Vive la France! - I think I made an extra 9 or so QSOs thanks to our French neighbours.  Thankfully activity levels did seem a little higher than on previous events.  I noticed that conditions changed dramatically throughout with signals coming and going.  Thanks to all for the QSOs - See you all next year!

    G4RCG   
    Good evening with quite a bit of activity, it was great to work all the French stations, plus lots of calls that I had not worked before.  This is a great change from the normal type of contest and SD worked flawlessly.

    G8FCQ   
    Interesting propagation.

    G8FMJ/P   
    My first Sprint contest.  Great fun - easy with SD

    PA0MIR   
    Pleased to have better participation from F this time.  Just missed out on the 50QSO mark again - last quarter was very slow unfortunately.

    GM3ZBE   
    I was a PHONE SPRINT VIRGIN, so apologies for confusion!

    GW0ETF   
    Good mix of 'new' callsigns - maybe next year's Sprints will be better patronised.

    G0VDZ   
    As usual, great fun, but the squirrels have had a go at the antenna so the SWR kept changing!

    MW1LCR   
    Not a serious entry, just about 40 minutes of operating.

    G3SNU   
    Someone must have tipped off the Fox stations - wkd seven of them!

    G0FYX   
    More activity tonight, especially Continentals.

    G3HRH   
    Pretty noisy, but lots of activity.  Tried QRP for a change and was surprised how well it went.

    G3ZHE   
    Better than I thought with the Critical Frequency below 3MHz.  Plenty of Euro stations heard - lots of fun!

    G7SKR   
    Nice to see a few foreign stations getting involved and giving away a few points.

    M3RCV   
    Had to take time out to make a cake for Children in Need!

    G3RRL   
    Very busy band with a lot of sigs from Europe.  Very enjoyable.

    MW0CVT   
    My first Sprint contest.

    G3LIK   
    Lot of stations seemed to be running more than the 100W allowed.  Lots of QRM on the band.  Having a cough didn't help at all!

    2E1BNA   
    First contest I've entered.  Hard at times with only 50W and a small portable dipole on a fishing pole, but a good contest for dabbling the toes.

    G0VOK   
    More activity than last month and I found it hard to make myself heard. I must improve the 80m antenna.  Great fun!

    F4AGR   
    First Sprint contest for me.  It was very interesting concept ... I will be back!

    G1DYN   
    Noisy start with few stations heard, but improved as time went on.

    G4GZB   
    Very late start but enjoyed the fray.
