    M0CES
    awful nite.Nuff said.

    M0CNP
    Conditions were abyssmal but thanks to those I was able to work.

    M0CUL
    Another noisy evening!

    M0DCD
    Heard very little band very poor

    M0DJW
    good fun, although conditions not the best.

    M0FRH
    Good fun but hard work

    M0GAV
    Hard work again this time.Roll on the spring and summer!

    M0JEC
    FT ONE 100W exG5RV Doublet @ appx 30ft inverted V

    M0LUV
    Great fun

    M0MCX
    Some amazingly strong stations. How do they do it? I want their antenna!

    M0SCG
    Really had to stuggle with this contest all stations very weak and suffered with qsb on some signals all that being said it honed my skills in resolving weak stations  The contest was hard work but enjoyable

    M0SFG
    Lots of QRN but still enjoyed it

    M0VBY
    Better condx this time - cu agn soon.

    M0WLF
    Sorry for any confusion, but I have had repetative jamming from a local station in Bristol and working split semed my only way of continuing in the contest. Thanks to all the callers who managed to work me.

    M0WTG
    Absolute joke! Even BBC quality stations in the clear
    failed to come back. One way propagation makes it like
    shouting into a cupboard. Lets hope it gets better.

    M0XDF
    Lots of QRM, some DL joining contest

    M0XDX
    Poor conditions again,lots of QRM still enjoyed it though!

    M0XJP
    very difficult condx but always enjoyable

    M1ADX
    Some of my frequencies will be wrong as I was switching from one VFO to the other and the data did not come across to the rig.

    M1EBV
    Hard to be heard with QRP

    M1PTR
    Band very noisy with only a few Gs audible here at the start. Thank you to those of you that kept  trying; your patience is appreciated. Thankfully condx improved later on.

    M3RCV
    Noisy band weak signals so seemed more difficult to make 10w heard tonight.  Simon 2E0CVN and I shared the 90 mins.

    M3TBK
    Very busy/noisy had the attenuator on the whole time!

    M3WYX
    A cobination of two sick children and other unforseeable
    circumstances resulted in a half hearted attempt this
    month very little heard from GM and europe surprisingly

    M3YOM
    Poor conditions again made it very tough going.

    M5ALG
    Band conditions here were terrible

    M6JOE
    First logged contest

    M6KAH
    Conditions made this a very difficult contest.
    Looking forward to the next contest.

    MM0BQI
    Worked all I could hear.......4 QSOs !! Good fun as always.

    MM0GPZ
    Worst conditions ever from here. I can usually work 50 minimum and sometimes nearly double that. I never even heard another station for the first 7 or 8 minutes. I rechecked the calendar 3 times to be sure. I was going from one end of the band to the other and hearing no contest activity except foreign stations working G's then some V weak G's started to come up in the noise. I decided to leave it and come back for last 30 minutes thinking conditions would improve. Still
    rubbish at the end. And this is meant to be the time for GM's to score big HI. There always the CW leg to come.
    K3,100w,Inv L, EWE.

    MW0RZC
    Good limited operation due to ice and snow on antenna

    SOAPBOX:

    2E0RFS
    Very difficult conditions almost felt like I was in a radio black hole.

    2E0SEW
    Fun

    DG4DW
    My 2. CC Contest in this year. I like this short test!
    When i have time we hear us again in the next month.

    DL2SAX
    Second part in this nice contest. Hope to work you all in the CW part.

    G0AAA
    Poor tonight ..not helped by my half my antenna being in the snow!

    G0CLP/P
    Terrible condx during the first hour coupled with snow a foot deep freezing and more snow huge north/south divide shown by scores achieved. How about a multiplier system for next
    year?

    G0DWV
    For anyone in Norfolk, the conditions were dire....

    G0EYR
    Enjoyable if only the band was a bit quieter! Good old SD!

    G0FYX
    Good condx plenty of activity. SD logging program works well.

    G0GDU
    Looking at the big numbers received from some propagation favoured the south west. Conditions very slow here here until after 21.00. Skip too long for inter G working from this QTH
    most contacts with SW England South Coast and with DL 

    G0GFQ
    Abysmal conditions we might aswell give up till April

    G0HSA
    What poor conditions this evening. The contest tonight was very hard work. Hopefully there will be better conditions next time. SD performed well as usual. Better luck next time.

    G0IBN
    c'est impossible

    G0ICJ
    difficult conditions

    G0IIQ
    Terrible conditions

    G0KYA
    Terrible conditions. Gave up after an hour!

    G0LHZ
    QRM QRM QRM and some QRM!

    G0MLY
    Even harder work than January's contest. Surprised to hear so many high serial numbers. Roll on the summer!

    G0OKF
    Waste of my time. SD always works

    G0ORH
    QRP in ssb mode is such a struggle. I just hope the extra points gained was worth the effort.

    G0TZZ
    Pure Hell but stuck with it.

    G0VDZ
    Conditions were not to good at the start, but did improve a little

    G0VJG
    dead from here

    G0VZQ
    Awful night. Hardly able to work anything on my ant

    G0WJX
    Awful conditions in the NW clearly better elsewhere.

    G1FON
    Madhouse with fairly long skip

    G3GLL
    Horrible !

    G3HRH
    Quite busy with above average conditions for early Feb
    Apologies to all those from whom I needed repeats due to QRM or QSB

    G3IZD
    Very poor conditions indeed here in the NW of G. For some 20 minutes only 6 G stns heard one giving a serial of 60. Some very good serials later when I had reached 15. Same conditions for other in the NW will no doubt improve but oh to live in centre

    G3KLH
    Propagation was good on the south coast with high numbers of G's and GM's calling although most of them were very weak

    G3LDI
    Awful propagation again and very frustrating to hear others running a pile-up

    G3LET
    Bit of a slow start but finished with 12 in the last 5 minutes so there must have been quite a bit of activity

    G3LHJ
    Had a great time - condx favoured the SW at last but most signals on the weak side made it hard going

    G3LIK
    Conditions were rather bad to start with but improved as the contest went on. Some interefence from some splatter from some near stations.

    G3MXH
    Very difficult inter uk conditions again especially the start of the event. Some amazing scores from some stations so the propagation was better for some in other parts of the uk. Hard work but good fun !!

    G3NDJ
    very noisy condx

    G3OLB
    Tried S&Ping for 1st half hour but in these short contests it is much better to try and find a run frequency and stick with it!

    G3PDH
    Wierd conditions again a few strong signals and many weak ones but exchanging high numbers but not from this area in Norfolk. No GM's heard at all.

    G3PHO
    Atrocious conditions! Couldn't get a run at all so had to resort to S&P for almost all QSOs. Some scores heard were truly amazing in view of the poor inter G propagation. Roll on March!

    G3PSM
    Band very 'mushy'. Thought I had a RX problem but apparently not. Again SD did an excellent job.

    G3RHH
    Shorter skip this time but lots of QRM.

    G3RSD
    Used "sd" worked perfectly

    G3SNU
    TRIO 830 170ft doublet and SD

    G3SVD
    The contest seemed to start quite slowly but conditions inter G improved after the first 30 mins and the qso rate  also improved. I am using Win-test here and did notice that there were a very large percentage of calls  that do not appear in the Partial Check file. Does this mean there were a large number of new participants?

    G3SWC
    Had a good run for once on a reasonable frequency.

    G3TXF
    Conditions were bad at the start but picked up during the 90 minutes.

    G3VCA
    It was very difficult to pull stations out of the noise.
    I hope next month will be better

    G3VDB
    Hard going again

    G3VIP
    Rig ic7000 10w 40m lw - homebrew logger. What a farce

    G3VPW
    Good fun this evening. Didn't think there'd be so much activity listening around before the contest all long skip stations nevertheless was pleased with the numbers of exchanges finally accomplished.

    G3VQO
    Hard going and I don't do hard SSB contests! I'd had enough after half-an-hour and went to look for some paracetamol

    G3VUS
    Never heard condx so poor for first 30 mins only a handful of G stations audible and afterwards many fruitless calls whilst EU stations were v loud.

    G3ZBU
    very hard work with noisy qrm

    G3ZGC
    Very noisy but it came up at the end. Rig IC7700 100w to 132 ft wire up 40 ft wrapped into 55 ft garden.

    G3ZHE
    A terrible night in North Cheshire with snow and static.

    G3ZRJ
    Amazed at some of the scores, i've good ears and a good rig but couldn't hear anything like that number.  I couldn't hold a cq frequency so i guess that made all the difference

    G4BUO
    Struggled with S+P for the first 25 minutes then conditions changed and I managed to hold a frequency until the end

    G4BXT
    Hard going. Poor conditions. No really strong signals this time. How 80m does vary!

    G4BZP
    band very noisy and few G's

    G4CLA
    Very hard work strange conditions some stations very loud others down in the noise.

    G4DDX
    I found conditions very bad. The snow on the trees seemed to be affecting my sigs also noise from pylons was bad. Can't wait for better propogation and of course the CW leg and no snow. Where would we be without SD.

    G4EBK
    What can I say apart from terrible.

    G4ERW
    Difficult going although propagation seemed to favour
    this corner of Kent.

    G4FAL
    Conditions improved in the last couple of minutes!

    G4FKA
    A game of three halves; very dodgy start good run in the middle slow decline to the end. Better than January though!

    G4FNL
    Late on for this contest. Hence only a few minutes active. Usual struggle to make inter-G QSO's. I used SD for logging

    G4FSU
    Much better condx than last month. Thanks to all.

    G4KNO
    Was it my change of antenna or was the propagation really weird?

    G4LMW
    A struggle in poor conditions. Some very strong stations just could not hear me at all

    G4OSB
    Got prepared for the contest but where is the mic? Hunted for the manufacturer's box in my roof space - and there it was - never been plugged in since new. Perhaps SSB will become a thing of the future !

    G4RCG
    This was the hardest CC SSB I have ever done +10db noise and signals so weak it was the norths turn to get no propagation roll on the CW session you dont get sore throats with CW!

    G4TSH
    Terrible!

    G4VUD
    Odd conditions long skip most of the time

    G4WUG
    What a struggle ! Conditions got better in last half but it would appear the rest of the country could not hear Nofolk?!

    G6FOP
    QRP quite pleased as horrendous qrm inluding deliberate attemps at jamming

    G7SKR
    Very poor conditions here in Cheshire again. Could hear some UK stations at S9 and S9+ but just couldn't make myself heard in return. Quite odd.

    G7VRK
    Hard work

    G8FMJ/P
    Difficult conditions grateful thanks to all I worked
    SD faultless as usual.

    G8NRP
    Problems with icing on the antenna

    GD3YUM
    Very difficult for some time to work other G's band was very noisy and sigs weak or unresponsive

    GM0WED
    Well, it just shows one, this should have been a good month for GM/MMs; but like Jan, the ionosphere was shining on G-land.  Maybe the Scottish government has put up border controls on 80m!

    GM3POI
    Hi SWR problem caused QRTall fixed now

    GW4BVE
    High QRM levels

    GW7BZR
    G5RV worked well. K3 worked well. Pity about the operator and the rf which i found about after the contest.But i enjoyed it!!

    HE8CIC
    Very familiar contest / Bad conds the last 30 minutes. Logging software Super Duper 13.26. HE8CIC special callsign for 2009 main call HB9CIC
