| JK1AXM | SO LP ALL | Fun Contest! |
| JR4CZM | SO LP 20M | Bad condition for my fishingrod-ANT, but enjoyed the contest.TU |
| K1OYQ | SO HP ALL | Great Fun! Some stability issues Flex644/N1MM/Windows 10 |
| K2UA | SO HP ALL | On for only a short time, but I had a blast. FT4 is a blast! |
| K3MTR | SO LP ALL | Grateful to be a part of this historic contest! Tnx es FB to all! |
| K3QIA | SO HP ALL | Used Digirite and WriteLog and it worked very well! |
| K3SSS | SO LP 40M | Operating Remote from RHR W1/Athens FN54, K3 100W OCF dipole at 100ft Conditions were horrible. Saw a lot of familiar call signs |
| K3WHD | SO LP ALL | This is my other radios log |
| K4QD | SO HP ALL | I operated using wire antennas. Due to Hurricane Dorian most local hams were taking down antennas and our local W4MLB club station (Melbourne, FL) cancelled a planned M/2 operation. Most of our members live on the barrier islands or within 10 Km of the Atlantic Ocean in the path of the hurricane. Due to band conditions and wire antennas, I decided to operate high power. Station: ICOM IC-7300 with Ameritron AL-80B at 300 watts Antennas: 20M = Delta Loop, 80/40/15 = Radio Works Super Loop Logging: N1MM+ and WSJT-X, which worked perfectly. Thanks AA5AU for excellent configuration instructions. I worked both FT-4 (225 contacts) and FT-8 (82 contacts) Thanks for the contacts es 73, Jan K4QD |
| K4SQC | SO LP ALL | Great contest - wish the upper bands had been open! |
| K4WW | SO HP ALL | Activity, and efficiency of operators, exceeded my expectations |
| K4XU | SO LP ALL | Conditions were poor even for this low spot in the cycle |
| K5ZD | SO HP ALL | Lots of learning going on. We need to define some contesting protocols for Digi. Especially for FT4 where there is so little time to react |
| K6DAJ | SO LP ALL | Was only able to operate the first 5.5 hours of the contest. My rate was abysmal and I don't fully understand why. The situation was much worse than any normal FT8/4 operating I have done. It was either due to really bad conditions or perhaps some confounding of the WSJT-X software as a result of more signals than usual. I tried changing mode, band, frequency, antenna direction, time slice, contest mode, anything. I tried howling at the moon and cursing at the sun, to no avail |
| K6TD | SO LP ALL | Frustrating. Didn't seem to decode signals as well as hoped. There were highlights though. ZW5B called me on 80m. Few technical problems. Digirite (from W5XD) TX signal into a 6700 was badly distorted. Restart of digirite cured that. Message sequencing didn't always work out. Sometimes, I wished for message function keys, so I could drive the QSO myself. I called CQ mostly on the odd cycle. When I would switch to the even cycle, seemed like digirite Few issues to work out before RTTY RU. I'd regard this as a beta run of an FT4 contest. Remote operation - @K6MTU Tks for the QSOs! 73, K6TD |
| K6UM | SO HP ALL | Never called so many stations in a contest without a response |
| K6XN | SO HP ALL | Thanks all!! See you next year in the pileups. 73, Ted, K6XN |
| K7VIC | SO LP ALL | DN28UH |
| K7VIT | SO HP ALL | I started this interesting contest. Before long my software and hardware had a disagreement with irreconcilable differences. So here is my log for data validation purposes. Thanks to WWROF and to SCC for sponsoring this contest |
| K7XC | SO LP 20M | Participated to help out the club score. Compared to RTTY I found the FT4 mode Tedious at best having to pay hyper attention optimizing the exchanges while wasting no time between Qs. The Joy Of running High Rate with a simple click, return, pause, return, repeat was gone! The need of close concentration for this type of contesting seems to be more than I am willing to invest my time and effort into. FT8 is great for DXing but the faster FT4 to me is a bust if I cant enjoy it. Watching the club reflector with hundreds of s devoted to trying to correctly integrate N1MM+ & WSJT-X into a foolproof Operating Suite convinced me to not even try. I ran WSjJT-X alone and used the built-in log to 'sorta manage not making dupes'. I have no idea what my final score is and hope this upload utility will calculate it for me |
| KA2YRA | SO LP 40M | Thanks for the excellent contest. 73 |
| KB2HSH | SO QRP 40M | HAD A GREAT TIME USING FT4! 73 DE FN02! |
| KC0RF | SO HP ALL | What a blast! |
| KC3KFW | SO LP ALL | Great Contest! Thanks! |
| KC7V | SO LP ALL | A little fun to check out the new contest |
| KD5JHE | SO LP ALL | Now this was lots of fun. Great idea using other frequencies for Contest |
| KE8FT | SO HP ALL | Left 6 dupes due to incomplete logging on the other side |
| KG4W | SO HP ALL | Thanks for putting on contest |
| KG5RJ | SO LP ALL | I noticed my run rate for FT8 was better than that on FT4 |
| KJ7GUI | SO LP ALL | Rookie |
| KK4BZ | SO LP ALL | equipment=TS570S, antenna=G5RV dipole at 10 m in trees, Thanks for the fun! |
| KM4CQG/P | SO QRP ALL | QRP KX3 Crank IR Solar Power |
| KM4F | SO LP ALL | Quit early because N1MM/WSJT dupe checks were not working |
| KM8V | SO LP ALL | Nice job by the organizers on the inaugural WW DIGI test. I thought there would be a lot more stations on the air, but I had a good time. Some kinks to work out, I think on the exchages / software side. Took a break to go watch Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back with the Cleveland Orchestra playing the score with my harmonics, and to sleep. Spent more time in the chair than I expected I'd be able to. 73 de KM8V - Black River Radio Ops |
| KS7T | SO HP ALL | After 63 yrs on the air only my 2nd day ever on digital modes and used the contest to get used to how the wsjt-x software works. Did the nay-sayers about a digtal contest ever think how useful a learning tool the contest would be? |
| KV4ZY | SO LP ALL | Casual operating just for fun |
| LC6C | SO LP ALL | Nice to participate in the first WW Digi DX Contest. Operations ran fairly smoothly, with most participants up to speed on the rules and settings. The solar storm gave us bad conditions on 60 deg N. Only worked a handful of DX stations, while 100 W and a resonant wire antenna should reach around the globe. Will be back next year |
| LX7I | SO HP ALL | Log sent in 3 minutes after the contest - thanks for this new contest! |
| M0LMK | SO LP ALL | My first digi modes contest. Manyn thanks for the contacts! |
| N0AX | SO LP ALL | Various and sundry Murphy Bites in my butt! |
| N0ODK | SO LP ALL | Mostly trying out contest with new mode on lowbands. Seems like lot of stations going after a few with high points only instead of working eachother |
| N1EN | SO LP ALL | I wish more FT* ops would remember that their rigs have big knobs and there are frequencies other than the watering holes. Having said that...had some nice runs when I could get a spot at the main trough |
