Great fun as always -- EA6/GM3ZDH Thanks for all QSO's and happy new year 73 ei2iab -- EI2IAB Awful conditions tonight--almost bad enough to make you want to give up contesting. Apologies to a few stations that I could hear but could not properly copy. I was delighted to finally work Sandi S57KM. -- EI2KA good yes yes -- EI4KH large dead zone good dx -- EI4KU Enjoyable evening, band noisy 73 -- EI5KF Nice contacts plenty of activity tonight Dried up after 50 mins SD worked as always -- EI5KG Happy New Year everyone! Goodness—noise level at my QTH and conditions were a little tough. PS. First time using DXLog here. Looks like I've been uploading my spots, however, I have not used the cluster to get help. Selecting Connected category just in case... -- EI6LA Good to be back! -- EI7GY Very QRM and poor band condx for last half hour -- EI8CE Tough going at times and conditions not the best either but good fun nonetheless... -- EI8KF Have extremely bad local QRM on receive.

Difficult within UKEI because of long skip -- G3Q Good to EI and long skip into EU only 2 G's! -- G3R Hard work - well done EI stations but not much else -- G3RWF Good conditions, unfortunately couldn't spend more time in the contest. HNY to all. -- G3UUT Conditions seemed poor, but at least the new INV-V setup worked. -- G4BRK Very bad QRN S9+ for most of the hour, so I just S&P the stations that I could hear. -- G4FJK Testing new SO2R set-up with Elecraft K3 and Yaesu FTDX10.
