| K2UA | SO HP ALL | Great contest! Used to operate WPX seriously back in the 1980s but I've only gotten on RTTY seriously in the last couple of months. Great activity in this event! |
| K3CCR | M2 | K3CCR is the club station at the Collington continuing-care retirement community at FM 18OW in MD, just east of DC. N3UM and W3GB operated Multi-2 HP in Feb. 2021 CQ WPX RTTY. Our goal was to beat our first WPX RTTY result, in 2020 2.97K Q points and 1.49M claimed score. More RTTY experience and new F-key messages since 2/20 gave us hope, but the ice storm took it away. No ant. damage, no power loss. But, shack and cottages are separate 1 mi. away, but hard and risky to drive or walk on ice. Before the ice we did well ran for 85% of 295 Qs, 1012 Q pts, and 208 pfxs 00-05Z with N3UM on 80 M and W3GB on 40 M. W3GB got 52% of Qs but 65% of Q pts, with more 6-pt DX on 40 M. Back 1215-15Z, W3GB got 151 Q pts and 40 mults on 20 M in 51 Qs 48 were 3-pt EUs. Freezing rain began ~1430Z. His tough old F-150 with 4-wheel drive got W3GB safely home, and back 1950-2250Z for 75 more 20-M Q pts and 31 mults in NA, SA, EU, and AS. A lull in the rain at 20Z, then it came back. At 23Z W3GB had to use defroster to melt solid windshield ice chipper useless, road slick. Truck took us both to shack at 20Z Sun, after 23 hrs of thawing. We did well in the last 4 hrs, with N3UM on 40 M and W3GB on 20 M 583 Q pts and 100 mults in 163 Qs. Got 396 of the Q pts from 66 6-pt Qs on 40 M, out to HZ and A6. On 20 M, got EU, SA, OC, and AS mults out to LU, KH6, and JA. Rel. to 2/20 WPX RTTY claim, we got 61% as many Q pts and 75% as many mults in 51% as many BIC hours |
| K3IE | SO HP ALL | The perfect weekend to diddle. Winter Storm Warning over Middle TN left no guilt - even on Valentine's Day (hi) |
| K3NC | SO LP ALL | Great fun! |

| K4SHW | Checklog | 6/6/2018 |
| K4YCR | SO LP ALL | K-#, Butternut Vertical, 80 Watts |
| K5VIP | SO HP ALL | It doesn't seem like folks are spotting stations as much as was done in years past |
| K5WW | SO LP 20M | Freezing weather broke my antenna |
| K6FA | SO LP ALL | Only spent a little time in contest was sure surprised at how well I did. Maybe next time I won't have to take the wife shopping on Sunday |
| K6VHF | SO LP 40M | Thanks for the great contest! |
| K7LFY | SO HP ALL | Had the flu this year. Could only operate a little. Did the best I could. Decent 20 meter opening |
| K7VIT | SO HP ALL | Band conditions were just okay. We had a snow & ice storm during the contest. First time I can ever remember having SWR go sky-high on 3 bands because of iced up antennas. Thank goodness for 20m and 80m. Thanks to all who answered my calls |
| K8LF | SO HP ALL | Sunday conditions better. Tried to work all the 6 point EUR contacts on 40M and then every multi I could find. With the low sun spots, contacts on 15 and 10 should be worth more not less! |
| K8RCT | SO HP ALL | Wow, what fun when it is only +7 degrees outside. I had a really great run on 40 meters with my rate scale showing periods of 85 Q's an hour (but not for the whole hour!). Fifteen meters was open for a change. My station has only wire antennas so it's a bit of a challenge to compete, but.......I did double last years score! |
| K8YE | SO HP 20M | I really enjoyed the CW WW WPX RTTY Test this year, and I logged the most contacts I ever have done in a single contest. Lots of RTTY activity on the bands, and I picked up some new DXCC entities! Thanks for organizing this event! 73 & Good DX! Dennis (K8YE) |
| K9QJS | SO HP ALL | Very, very casual participation. And still had fun. Search and pounce only |
| K9ZO | SO LP ALL | I accidentally left zone 08 in the exchange so did not send serial numbers 1-7! I never did much with RTTY. My DXCC was with a K3 and paddles. My computers were always so slow that they sat and decoded and the guy calling me would call again before I got his report. So I just puttered around. Last spring I was not very successful in decoding FT8 DX, so I got a newer, faster computer. Thanks to K9CT for helping me find a good deal and good specs. W9ILY helped with loading and configuring software. WT2P came in with TeamViewer to figure out why the Flex DAX would not pass tones to be decoded by MMTTY. It was warm enough in the shack and zero degrees outside, but I didn't need an amp. I did house projects the first day, then started on Saturday evening and operated some on Sunday. It took a while to get in the groove, but became comfortable so I could read the paper while contesting. I called CQ on 20, but rarely got a reply, so stayed on the low bands. This is the most contacts I have made on RTTY. SO2R would really be fun. I need another tower! No RX antennas needed when you run low power. It took a lot of naps to get through this contest |
| KA3GIK | SO HP ALL | Great time. Thanks to all that called in. See all in the next one |
| KB2MMI | SO LP ALL | Need to improve my RTTY station! |
| KC0V | SO HP 40M | Great contest! My first time being the object of a RTTY pileup! Great fun! |
| KD4IZ | SO LP ALL | My first RTTY Test attempt - was a blast! |
| KD6HOF | SO LP ALL | N3FJP's CQ WPX Contest Log 4.8 has bugs causing wrong claim score and same SN to be sent twice in row (w/ FL digi)- may be a couple contact with same SN |
| KD9MS | SO HP ALL | My best score ever! |
| KD9NYE | SO LP ALL | First licensed 10/02/2019 |
| KE2D | SO HP ALL | This was my first contest as SO2R. I am resubmitting as single transmitter since only one signal could be transmitted at any time. I hope I am doing this correctly. Thanks, Bob, KE2D |
