| F8OOI | SO LOW ALL | Poor propagation made it hard running 100w. See you next year! |
| FM5DN | SO HIGH 80M | Amazing I have hanged up the inverted V on the tower over the afternoon. had fun for 3 hours Murphy ?»?????»?????»????odd with computer |
| G0AZH | SO HIGH 20M | tested repaired amp |
| G0OFD | SO LOW ALL | WEEKEND CONDITIONS GOOD VERY HARD TO FIND A SPOT AS MANY STATIONS OVERLAP ON FREQ SD LOG A GREAT ASSIST TO THE CONTEST |
| G1MPW | MULTI-SINGLE LOW | First time entry - great fun |
| G2X | SO LOW 160M | poor condx jet lag from holiday didnt help ,cheers guys |
| G3CO | MULTI-SINGLE LOW | SHUT DOWN FOR 9 HOURS DUE TO HIGH WINDS AND LIGHTNING |
| G3Q | SA HIGH ALL | Only intended to operate for a short time, but stayed longer. Generally good operating/signals. Fewer Aligators than in the past |
| G3WW | SA QRP 15M | Not much time to play this year |
| G3YBO | SA HIGH ALL | Nice to see 15m open |
| G3ZGC | SO HIGH ALL | On 160m 32w above 1850 200 below 1850. Great fun. I only worked each new country once for a change! |
| G4ADJ | SO LOW ALL | Band conditions worse than for many years.I hope the next sunspot cycle starts soon! SD by EI5DI used for logging with rig control this year |
| G4ATH | MULTI-SINGLE LOW | NOT GREAT |
| G4CWH | SO QRP ALL | As ever, stations to the East have seemingly very high noise floors while stations to the West can often hear my QRP signal when they themselves are weak with me. Is it only noise floor, or are there other effects? |
| G4DDL | SO LOW ALL | a struggle with 100W and wires but good fun |
| G4DDX | SO LOW ALL | Unable to do much due to shoulder injury from car accident but I found it very busy. I used SD as usual |
| G4FKA | SO HIGH 15M | Poor conditions particularly on Sunday |
| G4IUF | SO HIGH ALL | Poor conditions, loads of QSB |
| G4L | SO HIGH 80M | 80m 1/4 wave + Wellbrook loop.Need better rx. Sry if not hear you! |
| G4NBS | SO LOW ALL | K3, DOUBLET 22M LONG, 8M AGL QSOs AFTER 1620 FOR CHECKLOG PURPOSES ONLY 1st time with a sensible aerial for 40m so added some more QSO beyond the Classic 24hour section |
| G4OZG | SA LOW ALL | IC706Mk2G 100 watts 80/40 trap dipole at 25 feet homebrew 20M vertical |
| G6EES | SO LOW ALL | If only all those operators were on the band more often!! |
| G7PVZ | SO QRP ALL | Had a go as a QRP portable. All run from an SLA battery. SD logger worked fine, thanks Paul. Condx were tough with lots of QRM and loud - deaf stns Thanks to everyone worked... See you in the next one |
| G7Y | SO LOW 15M | Saturday had some great openings to N/A, had great fun with just 100w |
| G8DX | SA HIGH ALL | Just a fun entry |
| G8FMC | SO LOW ALL | Just a very brief dabble from a temporary location |
| G8KEK | SA LOW ALL | Excellent contest, very enjoyable - a few East European stations spoiling things with very bad modulation and splatter! |
| G8XTJ | SA LOW ALL | Disappointing conditions and high local noise level |
| G8ZRE | SO LOW ALL | Good contest serch n pounce Good number of QSOs short on DX and mults. 4U1A computer programme did not give point |
| G9Y | SO LOW 40M | Enjoyable contest, first single-op single-band entry! |

| GM0V | MULTI-SINGLE HIGH | Had a good contest all went well |
| GM2T | MULTI-TWO | Another great contest |
| GS7V | MULTI-TWO | Wild weather in Shetland, but great fun. 73 |
| GW0ANA | SO LOW ALL | Had to go QRT early in contest. Wanted on family matters. But had fun during my short operating and gave GW to a few guys as a multi. 73 Glyn GW0ANA |
| GW0FRE | SO LOW 10M | Challenging! |
| GW0NVN | SO LOW 160M | Station FT897 100 W below 1850 KHz 32 W above Antenna Quaterwave Inverted 'U' Top Loaded and capacity hat. Fail to Plan ?»?????»?????»???? Plan to Fail Very true. Work which I wanted to do on the antenna and feeder to improve its 160m performance and enable it to operate on 80m had not happened. I could not find the radio!! Spare time on Saturday was used to clear the vegetation around the antenna and feedpoint. Finally late that night I measured the vswr at the Radio end of the feeder. It was low but the bandwidth was wider than last year. Not the correct way to test. A dummy load will give similar results. Measure at the antenna feedpoint. I could hear plenty of stations and managed to work VY2ZM as my first contact. Later on Sunday I connected some rolls of wire to the antenna ground point. Then zig-zagged the wire across my garden and down the side of the house. This decreased the bandwidth and reduced the vswr at resonance. With an immediate improvement of stations coming back to my calls. I managed to work some new Countries on 160m. Notably CN0CO in Morocco and EF8R in the Canary Islands. The very strong signal of M6T. Who switched to a low dipole to hear my signal. I was disappointed to miss SO100ZHP. As I helped set up G0ZHP in London. It is a shame that in the UK we are only allowed 32W above 1850 KHz. I decided to finish early as my last two contacts DP6A and SP2PIK could not understand my pronunciation of ?»?????»?????»????V?»?????»?????»???? ?»?????»?????»????Victor?»?????»?????»????. ?»?????»?????»????Victoria?»?????»?????»????or?»?????»?????»????Venezuela?»?????»?????»???? as part of my Call GW0NVN and used ?»?????»?????»????X?»?????»?????»???? and ?»?????»?????»????E?»?????»?????»???? instead.
