Low Activity.

Very good condx this weekend. Some good DX and distances worked. Thanks to all for points

Wet windy

Mild, cloudy, light winds

Hard going UK activity low only did 6 hrs pls can we have a so 6 hr section?

Good tropo into Western Europe. Low UK activity?

Excellent conditions towards Holland & Germany

Spare time operation again, good activity, EA tropo did not make it here.

Just giving away a few points, very little heard.

Great fun - some good DX available and plenty of activity.

Pleasant contest with good weather. Very strong signals in the SE from both Europe and GM.

Condx variable with some enhanced Tropo and (a little) SpE at our location.

Fairly good

Heavy rain whilst setting up, getting brighter and drier by contest start time. Mild but very windy

Giving pts away over slots in weekend schedule, not much activity Saturday but good to work EA late Saturday from this low qth on low power

A last minute arrangement to keep folks occupied while waiting their turn to operate in SSB FD ! Also a useful first contest for our new licencees.

Few UK squares worked but a nice opening to the continent. Heard EI as soon as the contest finished!

Reasonable activity and conditions, so nice to work some DX.

Just token entry missed start and watched TV for 5hours but some good DX.

Good conditions especially on Sunday. A very good-natured contest and thanks to all for the points. Only one bad signal noted (from a group that should have known better!)

Only operated Sunday morning. Good conditions to the East with occasional DX to the North

Good conditions

First entry in this contest = fingers crossed!

Good conditions shame my amp blown up and had to run barefoot. not even 100w!

Flat conditions with qsb.

Excellent propagation to Europe, managed finally to reach high power DL stations with fleapower! Also excellent tropo to EA, 59 reports received, with 59+ my end! EA1VHF also audible. Good fun and good weather!

Condition up towards EA otherwise about average.

Better conditions Sunday morning made up for the disappointment of yesterday.

Very pleased to work DL with the QRP.

Picked the wrong 6 hours the band was opening as I ended session hi hi. Enjoyed this first time from home in a 6 hour contest

Rotator failed costing me 40 minutes. It's not easy to work with a rotator one can only turn using a pair of screwdrivers stuffed in the control box as it was sparking and arcing when I turned the aerial.

Just popped up for a short period.

Could only manage a small bit, family commitments.

A few hours operating

Some nice DX, but the usual poor signals again.

Good tropo - first try - very enjoyable.

Actually chose the best 6 hours for once!

Some good DX but UK stations seemed thin on the ground.

Glad to have missed the very stormy weather on the Thursday before the contest, didn't want another year like last year! As it was the weather was very kind and even warm during set up on Saturday. Conditions just about normal if that on Saturday with a slight improvement on Sunday. Seemed like most of the longer distance QSOs were going over our heads into the West of the country making our ODX look quite poor! Overall a very enjoyable weekend. Operators G4CLA, G4IRX, G0HFX and thanks go to Dan LY3MM for travelling to operate with us this year.

Excellent weather conditions were a boon! One antenna faulty at start but repaired. Nothing else broke! Activity seemed lower than usual at start (perhaps football TV?) some good QSOs/QRBs worked including EA/OK/LY. First contest without John G6YIN who was in hospital.

Worst tropo conditions ever experienced in contest. WX = Heavy cloud & rain. Could not get anything in 7 hrs on the Saturday! Sunday morning a few more qrv. 23 hrs before I get a qso outwith GM. BUT I WOZ THERE

Strange condx - nice opening to EA/HB9/DL. UK activity poor but condx OK. WX wet but much better than 2008!

Good conditions, with lots of DX worked. Weather on the wet and windy side, but great fun. Thanks to all who worked us.

Nice to see some good tropo. Just on for a short while giving points away.

Main entry in Hilltopper Backpacker contest. Good EU DX on 10watts.

12 ele in back garden attached to wheelie bin and 12 ft above the grass.

25 Watts from an old Icom IC-290D transceiver purchased the day before the contest for -L-10. JayBeam 2M FM antenna tilted horizontally outside top floor bedroom window @ 10 meters. Ancient Trio fist mic and no tuner.

Very disappointing condx in Norfolk compared to rest of country. Retired for a good supper during opening to SE!

Site not the best for vhf but this was a half effort .... could do better

Made a nice change to have enhanced tropo throughout the contest. Felt we were not in the best location to take advantage of the tropo but a nice average points per QSO. Several Europeans commented that we were their best DX - always good to hear.

Good conditions.
