| M4A | MULTI-TWO | The annual Cambridge University Wireless Society entry in CQWW DX SSB is our biggest event of the year. We use it as an opportunity to show contesting to our latest recruits, many of whom are current students, whilst also inviting some recent graduates and supporters back to help us achieve a respectable score. This year was a very odd contest for us. Saturday saw fantastic conditions, and at one point we were 600k points up on our score from the same time last year. On Sunday, however, we found the bands much more flat, which meant that we lost a lot of ground, eventually finishing 1.6M points lower than last year's claimed score. Antennas were much the same as in previous years, but we used K3s instead of the FT-1000MPs we have used in the past. This was a great success, and the diversity feature was especially appreciated on the lower bands. Despite not managing to beat the English M2 record that we set last year, all seventeen operators had a great time during the weekend. Thanks for the QSOs |
| M4D | SA HIGH 10M | Nice openings on both days. Sure I can do much better when I get the antenna higher. Looking forward now to CQ WW WPX! Thanks to all for the QSOs. 73 de John, G4ATA |

| N2FF | SA LOW 10M | I want to submit a single band ten meter low power assisted log but pleasee credit my all band contacts to YCCC. Hurricane Sandy got me at 5:30 Monday afternoon. We lost power for 52 hours. I also lost my quad and a numbner of trees into neighbors yards. Fortuantely we had no damage to the house and it's new roof only a month old. A strong gust from the east bent the mast where it came out of the tower. I had been using that mast with same antenna for 30 years. It was bent over at a 45 degree angle. It looked like I was doing reverse moon bounce on 20 meters with the quad pointed at the ground. My biggest loss was my Internet connection. CableVision was out for morethan a week and came back at 3PM on Election Day. I hope you guys accept this log. Great conditions on 10 and 15 so I elected to do a mainly 10 meter single band and see if In could make it to 1K QSOs and a million points. I'll spare you the suspense. I did not make it but I sure had fun trying. Saturday morning during the EU opening (prime time) I lost almost and hour trying to figure out why I had weird windows opening up all over the place and moving around the screen. I thought perhaps it was RF getting into the mouse or the keyboard and reset the computer a few times. Finally I decided to replace the old Focus keyboard which had had too much coffee over the years with a new Logitech wireless version sitting in the corner having never been used. That was the cure. But I lost an important hour. I spent the rest of the contest moving up and down the band map on ten meters picking off mults and new stations attempting the turn all the spots red. It's not all the easy running 100 watts but it sure is fun. I never used the MFJ voice keyer and I very tried to run. Once in a while I moved back to 15 or 20 to pick off multipliers. Sunday afternoon I really started to get tired and threw in the towel early as there was almost no new stations to work and there were no more multipliers. But more importantly the wind had picked up and there was rain spitting as the hurricane approached. It was about time to crank the tower down. Thanks to all the guys and gals around the world who hear my signal and worked me. The thrill of getting a response from a distant multiplier on the first or second call never gets old with low power. In fact I am always happen when they simply come back no matter how many calls I have made. May East Coast towers and antennas be spared in the coming storm! We still have the CW portion ahead |
| N2SLO | SO LOW 10M | Due to hurricane Sandy, my contest time was reduced from last year. Conditions were very good on Saturday, with many stations from Europe. The Canadians came in late afternoon, then a few South American stations. These conditions were the same both days. The propagation was much better last year |
| N2WK | SA HIGH ALL | Part Time all S&P |
| N3QC | MULTI-TWO | Our club's first effort at contesting, we called this "RadioSport 101" and it gave all the opportunity to see what contesting is like. We may have made several new contesters from the interest they showed!! |
| N3UM | SO HIGH ALL | I've done the CQ WW SSB every year starting in 2001, except for 2007. This year I claimed my best score since the high-sunspot years of 2001-2004 innclusive: about 658 K, just above my best previous claim of 654 K in 2010, and much better than the range of 482 K to 598 K I got in the other recent years of 2005-2011. I was also pleased to get the recent-best score this year in 20.2 hrs. operating, compared with typical times of 25 to 27 hrs. in the years since 2004. These good results were mostly achieved on 10 and 15 meters, where I was able to run at high rates for a while on Sun. (though not Sat.) I also found lots more countries on 10 and 15 m. this year than I did in recent years, more than offsetting just average Qs and mults this year on 80 thru 20 meters. Activity level was high on all bands |
| N3XUD | SO HIGH ALL | Great Contest!!!! Lots of new countries worked!!! |
| N4DB | SO LOW ALL | Great contest from new setup but big time problems with RFI my computer |

| N4PSE | SO HIGH ALL | Another fun part time effort. New amp really worked sweet. Conditions were better on Sunday from my limited observations |
| N4RWH | SO LOW ALL | Great Contest! Thanks to all those who made this contest possible! 100 watts |
| N5CR/7 | SO HIGH 20M | Great being back in the CQWW after 20 years of being off the air! But being in zone 3 when all the logging software defaults me to zone 4 is a pain, I think most of the DX got it right |
| N5DTT | SO LOW ALL | Wow! What conditions! What fun |
| N5XJ | SA HIGH 10M | Just got ON to help the more serious participants increase their scores |
