Great contest with very good activity !

Back to SO2R again and it took me about 10 hours before i got used to it.
Also very strange to run CW on the run radio and listening SSB on the 2nd
radio. I wonder how many contests it will take to get comfortable with SO2R
???. Propagation was not the best but that`s just the way it goes in LA land.
Last time we didnt have any solar disturbance in a whole contest was back in
1999 if i remember it correctly … :-) )

73 and see you in WRTC (maybe)

Congrats to LN9Z(Jan LA9HW, op) for a fantastic SB160 score and thanks to Team LN3Z for yet again inviting Murphy to their place for the WW CW weekend. Giving us time to contest in peace :-) Memorable moments: Called by KH7C Hawaii on 160m. CE0Y/SM6CUK whispered in on 20m for a double. Called by HS0ZDY on 80m for a double mult when only 9 minutes left of the contest. Plus many more that not comes to mind… We had lots of fun but enough is enough – give us flux, now! Thanks for all the QSO’s. Bjorn LB1GB & al. LN8W 3830

Thanks for a wonderfull contest. Great fun! Missed some multipliers again to be
among top-10 but worked more QSO and more DX than last year! Frustrated to hear
so many great DX but was not able to work them. Our north-west beverage worked
great! It was really hard to stay awake the second night. Thanks to all that
called! 73 de Lech LA7MFA
