    Nice session to start the sprints kept going just about
    all the 90 mins would have been nice if a few new
    op's would give it a try it is really good fun. Only
    a few Eu's on as well.

    G4TQF
    Apologies to all.
    Managed to send sr 0 to one station. How does n1mm do that!

    G4TSH
    More of a crawl than a sprint!

    GM0WED
    Great fun again

    M3WCK
    Exchange of names much prefered to RST exchange which is pretty meaningless in contest

    PA2PCH
    not so many participants.

    PA5WT
    I joined about the last half hour of this contest. All I can say is that
    a sprint is not really my cup of tea.

    PG7V
    Activity not too bad during the first hour. After that it became quiet and it was hard to find new stations.

    Good lot of activity. Europeans joining in.

    G0GDU
    Generally good conditions but with quite a lot of QRN and some rapid QSB
    Like waiting for a bus when calling CQ - either nobody answered or was called by several stations at the same time

    G3LIK
    A restricted numbere involved with the sprint
    Some good conditions with some eueropean coming thru
    Gives everyone an oportunity to work everyone

    G3OLB
    Wish we could get a few more of the sprint-haters converted!

    G3TLH
    Not so much activity for this contest. Maybe people
    prefer 599 nnn TU but this is more civilised

    G3TXF
    For this to be a real 'sprint' some radical new thinking about the rules is needed. The present format does not result in a contest worthy of the name 'sprint'. How about keeping it 90 minutes, but allow dup QSOs within three 30 minute sessions. Yes, after 30 minutes you can work the same station again for points and again in the third 30 minute period. Unless we come up with something creative and operationally challenging (which spinning the dial between QSOs isn't!) these sprints will stay forever dull.

    G3VPW
    Plenty of activity but very little QRM must develop a better technique with
    function keys and program mode using Wintest for the first time in a
    Sprint . Apologies for all the QSD !

    G3ZGC
    Rig IC7700 set to 10w to 132 ft wire up 40 ft in a 55 ft long garden.
    This was tremendous fun!

    G3ZRJ
    Sorry cud not do more xyl not well at present

    G4EBK
    Nice and steady could have done with a few more on.

    G4EKT
    Nice contest.

    G4OBK
    Great fun but slow towards the end

    G4OSB
    When the contest is over all the stations go underground
    and the air becomes unusually quiet.
