| VK3BDX | SO LP ALL | Melbourne storm took out one tower, so I lost my 40M and 80M antennas. I ran a wire at 5M off the ground. The other tower was wound down due to strong winds. Propagation on our Sunday Morning was poor. But fun was had - thanks Team |

| W1HS | SO LP ALL | Poor conditions at start, improved considerably into the evening, but still not great. Had to shutdown for a bit to let a thunderstorm pass. Never really achieved the run rate I had wanted. Called it quits about midnight localtime |
| W1RM | SO HP 20M | Better participation than last year especially on FT4 |

| W4GHV | SO LP ALL | IC-7610 G5RV ANTENNA |
| W4IPC | MSH | Thanks to Ray, W2RE for making his wonderful remote station in Summit, NY available for use in this contest. All operators were youth: Mason, KM4SII (17), Charles, AA4LS (13) and Connor, W4IPC (18). We operated SO1R with Connor operating the beginning and end of the contest, and Mason operating the middle period (after finishing his SAT exam Saturday morning) and Charles operating in between. The station performed well, especially on the high bands. The bands themselves weren't terrible, but also can't be classified as overly exceptional either. While FT4 did at times produce higher rates, all An intense thunderstorm came directly over the station causing a period of extreme QRN and rain static, but fortunately it cleared up soon after. Apart from that period, mother nature left us alone. Again, thanks to Ray W2RE and the Remote Ham Radio Youth Program for the use of the great remote station. http://www.w2re.com/summit/ https://www.remotehamradio.com/youth/ Thanks to everyone who called us! 73 Mason, KM4SII and Connor, W4IPC Radio ???

| W4MLB | MSH | Had new operators on board, that had not worked the FT modes. But everyone had a great time & look forward to next year |
| W4TMO | SO LP 160M | See you next year! |
| W5KY | SO LP ALL | Had a lot of fun ! |
| W5PR | SO HP 10M | Hopefully, this is as bad as it gets for 10 meters! It might be fun for FT8 and FT4 contacts on the same band to count. It might foster some activity on FT4 on 10 meters |
| W7SOT | SO LP ALL | Only had a few hours to work with a IC-7300 and a G5RV |
| W8MRL | SO HP ALL | Higher frequencies were poor. I still don't understand why more people aren't using FT-4 on bands other than 20m |
| W8TN | SO LP 40M | MY FIRST WW-DIGI CONTEST AND FIRST USE OF FT-4 FOR CONTESTING. A GREAT TIME! |
| WA1FCN | SO LP 40M | Between much improvrd conditions from last year and the stay at home rules we had many many stations to work. This contest is actually a lot of fun! Antenna is a 2 element at 70ft Power 90 watts from a very old rig |
| WA3EKL | M2 | GREAT CONTEST, LOTS OF FUN, ONE COMPUTER ISSUE AND A PESKY FLYING BUG THAT TOOK 3 MEN 3 HOURS TO ELIMINATE. GREAT FOOD, GREAT COMPANY AND ALL ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT YEAR. TNX TO ALL WHO CONTACTED US. 73 FROM THE CREW WA3EKL KA6PNL KB3VQC K3MTR K6ZO |
| WA4EEZ | SO LP ALL | Much fun! Condx not great...used W5GI Mystery antenna up 35ft.. Murphy came a-calling ..rig kept shutting down late Saturday...missed logging a few because of it |
| WA4MIT | SO LP ALL | Enjoyed the test just did not get to operate a lot. Thanks 73 |
| WA6GD | SO HP ALL | Couldn't stay awake thru the whole thing my XYL was kind enough to bring me a vodka martini shaken not stirred. And, that was the end of the contest for me. HiHi |
| WB4OMM | SO QRP 20M | My first foray into this contest! Also my first |
| WD6T | SO HP ALL | Casual operating from modest home station to see how things were this year...1632Z-1846Z, 2100Z-2120Z, then 0215Z-0700Z, while binge watching Danish TV with subtitles. Breakdown was 97 FT4 and 41 FT8. Somewhat more variety of mults on FT8, but waiting for it reminds me of a trip to the DMV. Rotated between bands and modes, occasionally going to the non-contest watering hole when things got slow. Considered setting up another computer for SO2R, but there General impression is that people didn't spread out enough. Activity was decent and included a lot of well-known contesters. Not much EU when I was operating, though saw a few W7s working them. Was pleased to work several HS's on 20m at mid-day. I still wish a new digital mode could be designed specifically with contesting in mind, preferably without fixed time slots |
| WO2X | SO HP ALL | Band conditions on 20 and above were not great. no activity heard on 10 meters. Still enjoyed this contest. I look forward to next year |
| WT8V | MSH | Loved the contest, looking forward to next year, thanks |
