W0YJT Single Op All Bands Not many band opening here
W1NN Single Op 6 Meters Used a 40 meter dipole
W1WBB Single Op 6 Meters Missed most of day 1. Light, sporadic 6m opening to midwest at 2330z. In/out thru 0145z, few callers SSB or CW. New grid em49 - tnx W9OSI. No opening heard day 2
W2KV/2 Single Op 2 Meters Working portable from Ship Bottom, NJ on Long Beach Island (NA-111). Rig: ft-847 and mirage 160w brick. Ant: single loop at 35 feet
W2UDT Single Op All Bands Had a computer crash! Did recover most Qs but time is off on first 10. Missed Saturday night do to family chores. Sunday was spent at the Sussex RA hamfes
W3DHJ/R Rover Old school: SSB & CW. The first two hours' score bested my 2015 and 2016 scores -- combined! My claimed-score: 23424 is the best since 2006. I never worked anyone in the grid I happened to be in. I hung in for the last "dead" 90 minutes for just one qso -- which was a dupe
W3RFC Multi-Operator What a ride it was
W3RGA/M Single Op All Bands Went out for about an hour Sun morning. Started in FN10 and was going to go to FN11 but didn't make it. No real antennas (ATAS-120a on 6M/SSB and SG7500a on 2M/FM)
W4AMP Single Op All Bands Great dx opening throughout contest
W7GLF Single Op All Bands Lots of fun playing with new FT8 mode
W8KSC Hilltopper Worked portable from my back yard 10 watts (MFJ9406 transceiver) battery power on dipole strung in the trees
W8TN Single Op 6 Meters All qso's were made with the new FT8 mode
W9SZ Hilltopper Fun contest. Weather was perfect, no wind, just wish 6M had opened up more
WA4LDU Single Op All Bands The new digital mode FT8 seemed to dominate 6 meters
WA5MWD Single Op All Bands QRP Mobile only around the neighborhood. Lots of fun
WA7JTM Hilltopper Hilltopper QRP portable. Backpacked to SOTA summit W7a/mn-147 to put this summit on for the contest (and SOTA). Was lucky to catch a 6M opening to W5/W0 land on 6M. I only lasted four hours in the 100+f heat of the desert
WB6HYH Single Op All Bands First time for me in this contest. It was a lot of fun. And it always is fun when 6 meters opens up. Looking forward to the next VHF contest
WB8WUA Single Op All Bands Had fun - the late evening had a good and calm distant opening on 2 meters. Unfortunately, no good opening occurred on the 6 meter band. - thanks
WB9TFH Single Op All Bands My best DX was DM12, San Diego CA, and a new grid. I had some good 6M short runs, seemed like activity was down, then again it's summer. Worked some rovers on 2 & 6 and not many 2M contacts around EN53, SE WIS. CU in Sept ARRL VHF. Thanks for the q's. 73
WB9WOZ Single Op All Bands Missed the 6M opening on Saturday, only worked 2.5 hrs on Sunday
