| MM9I | ASSISTED HIGH | Fun contest trying out a Flex radio .....thanks for all the Qs |
| N0DL | SINGLE-OP LOW | Inverted L with highest point at 36'. |
| N0JK | SINGLE-OP LOW | I was watching 6 Meters for the predicted CME impact Saturday. It turned out to be a "no show." But the quiet geomagnetic conditions were favorable for the CQ 160 CW contest. I had planned an antenna upgrade, but the winter storm a few weeks ago nixed tha |
| N0LMQ | SINGLE-OP QRP | Umbrella "bow tie" top loaded 15 foot vertical. Snow drifts prevented complete setup so the antenna was not 100% -- not even its normal limited capabilities |
| N1CGP | SINGLE-OP LOW | 550 foot horizontal loop @ 40 feet. |
| N1NN | SINGLE-OP LOW | 9TH CQ 160M CW CONTEST 90 FOOT END FED WIRE |
| N1OKL | ASSISTED LOW | Antenna used is a 260 ft. center-fed doublet with 450 ohm ladder line feed at approximate 50 ft. AGL. |
| N1QY | SINGLE-OP LOW | 160/80/40 trap dipole, 40ft at highest point |
| N1RR | MULTI-OP | The EAST pattern of the 2L GP failed on Saturday, likely dropping us out of the US Top-10. |
| N2EM | SINGLE-OP LOW | 160M dipole, center fed with window line. About 30 feet (10M) up. W1ICP transmatch at the transceiver. |
| N2GC | ASSISTED HIGH | K2KQ Double L @50' |
| N2UU | ASSISTED LOW | G5RV at 35 feet, fed as a random wire |
| N3BUD | SINGLE-OP LOW | Had fun just running a little CW to keep my contest speed up. Operate4d around 5.5 hours. |
| N3IW | SINGLE-OP QRP | End-fed 67' wire up 10 feet above ground. |
| N3JT | ASSISTED HIGH | Fun spotlight opening to EU 01-02z Saturday. |
| N3RS | ASSISTED LOW | Very limited time available this year. |
| N3TE | SINGLE-OP LOW | Inverted L - 25' 2" aluminum mast with 12 42' radials and 110' wire sloping to 20' at far end |
| N4AKV | SINGLE-OP LOW | 15 ft tall loaded vertical with capacitance hat |
| N4IW | ASSISTED LOW | Well, this one was kind of a slog. I continually had problems finding new stations to work, probably because of my lousy 160 antenna situation. Anyway, I got good code practice copying the same callsigns over and over. I heard and worked many PVRC members |
| N4TL | ASSISTED HIGH | Inverted L with a folded counterpoise. |
| N4TZ | SINGLE-OP HIGH | a 9pm bedtime limits dx on 160! |
| N4WW | ASSISTED HIGH | nice to hear europe saturday night. no rx antenna all qsos on vertical. |
| N5JJ | SINGLE-OP HIGH | Bands were very up and down. Was surprised to work Europe and JA. Prefer high band contests. |
| N5TJ | ASSISTED HIGH | Thanks to K5TR for use of his station via remote |
| N5XE | SINGLE-OP LOW | Inverted-L at 35 feet |
| N6DW | ASSISTED LOW | I worked barefoot into an 80m dipole......There were no contest highlights. |
| N6HI | SINGLE-OP QRP | QRP "Full 5 Watts" to a 20-Foot End-Fed. Can't resist a CW contest, even if my wire is perhaps just a bit short for 160m! Tnx for your patience and the QSOs. Go Arizona Outlaws! -73- John N6HI |
| N6XI | SINGLE-OP HIGH | Exquisite torture listening to East Coast stations running Europe! |
| N8II | SINGLE-OP LOW | 160 is full of surprises! Conditions were very poor at 23Z Saturday, nearby stations down 10-20 db from usual. At 0115Z I was called by DA2X and by 0127Z, I was running EU mixed with some NA. I added about 20 EU mults, plus a very loud P33W and 2 from Afr |
| N8LR | SINGLE-OP LOW | 135 ft dipole configured as inverted vee, vertex at 43 feet, fed with open wire ladder line. |
| N9JR | SINGLE-OP LOW | 1/4 wave Inverted L at 40 feet |
| N9TF | ASSISTED LOW | That was fun! Wish I had more time to operate as conditions were great from this litte pistols perspective. One of our sons and his Fiance came down from IL to work with a wedding planner for their upcoming noptuals this coming October here in TN. I was a |
| N9WEW | ASSISTED LOW | 160M Half Sloper installed in December about 20-30 ft in a pine tree running across the backyard of a city lot. No receive antenna. |
| ND8D | SINGLE-OP LOW | 1/2 wave inverted vee 40' above ground at peak, 10' above ground at edges. |
| NE5A | ASSISTED LOW | End fed wire 203 feet long 35 feet high. |
| NF0N | SINGLE-OP LOW | Comprimise dual-band 80-160 dipole at 30 foot. |
| NF8M | SINGLE-OP LOW | Transmit: Inverted L up about 40 feet then horizontal, total length 135 feet. Receive: half wavelength Beverage about 8 feet off the ground. |
| NI0K | SINGLE-OP HIGH | Really enjoyed the CW, my practice sessions are paying off. My Beverage was of no help, however. Neither the Beverage nor my K9AY loop hear very well, and my GAP Voyager vertical hears better. Harrumph! |
| NJ3K | ASSISTED LOW | Inverted "L" at 40 feet. |
| NN5T | SINGLE-OP LOW | Butternut HF-2V, 32' vertical |
| NO2D | SINGLE-OP LOW | Started QRP but switched to Low Power - 20 watts - when my QRP signal was not making it out of Parker, CO. Antenna is a 160 foot end fed wire at 30 feet. Pete, NO2D |
| NO9E | ASSISTED HIGH | Lower US participation with very few stations on Saturday evening. Fantastic conditions to EU around 2-3Z. Record score and countries for me Great fun with SDC Skimmer, which is more accurate sensitive and reliable than CW Skimmer. |
| NS8O | SINGLE-OP LOW | Shunt fed tower 55' feet with three band quad on top 20,15, 10 |
| OE1CIW | SINGLE-OP LOW | Indoor wire in the attic with an added coil to use 160 m ... so no real DX possible but had fun anyway :) |
| OE7XKJ | ASSISTED LOW | SunSDR2DX Antennas: vertical |
| OE8DDX | ASSISTED LOW | Self made sloper 18mh |
| OE8TED | SINGLE-OP HIGH | TS590SG + PA, TX Ant: InV-L 20m, RX-Ant: phased verticals Surprisingly good condx to NA and JA. It was fun. Thanks for the QSOs. |
| OG6N | ASSISTED LOW | The antenna used was an inverted vee with apex at 49ft (15m) and the ends about 15 ft from the ground level. |
| OH1RX | ASSISTED LOW | Low hanging sloper dipole. |
| OH7KC | ASSISTED LOW | My antenna Ground Plane. |
