Conditions were best on 40M for me tonight. Gary, KF7WNS was my only 20M QSO. 40M provided 17 QSOs and 80M was rough but I managed 3 contacts there. Mark, WB9HFK had the strongest signal to MN tonight. I worked a number of new (to me anyway) FPs so it was a good night to meet new members.
Ten Tec Argonaut 6, 40M Vertical and 204'CF Doublet
Thanks for a fun night.
K4WY, Jack, 5 fpqso=17 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=2 spc=15 total=795
Great wallow! Best signals from 9-land and good oinks from 1- land that I seldom hear from my barnyard. Not much from NC /FL south.
Even had a few VE stations to add some Canadian bacon to the mix.

ICOM 7300 @ 5W - OCF Dipole @ 25 Ft. I spent the entire 2 hours on 40M. I thought condx were pretty good. Sorry to those that I just could not pull out of the noise. I'll be looking for everyone in the July NAQCC Sprint later this week.

The 40m pen seemed to empty out at 0200. Then worked a couple Non-FPs who were running QRP on 40m. Then headed over to the 80m pen where I found some FPs who stuck it out until 0300. KX3 with 40m Dipole & 53' EFRW on 80m. Jody - K3JZD

No oinkers heard from the 20m. barnyard, but many piggies on 40 & 80 here in WNY. Thanks to all pigs who answered my squeels. 72
K3RLL, Don, 5w fpqso=12 fpdxqso=2 nonfpqso=2 spc=11 total=528
40m was the band here this evening and signals weren't too bad. Some were really good producing a number of nice contacts. Barnyard was clean and pretty steady but think all the piggies went back to the barn about 0200z. Thanks for the contacts. 73/72 ... Don
KB1M, Walt, 5W fpqso=15 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=1 spc=10 total=460
Did not heard a anything on 20, 40 was in good shape into the Pa, NY area from here in NH. Longest Qso was Carl, WB0CFF, MN. Lots of participants made for an extra fun evening. 72/73, Walt KB1M
W0ITT, GARY H FREEMAN, 5W fpqso=11 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=1 spc=9 total=306
Very nice conditions on 40 meters, my first FP event aided by my newly completed kit QCX radio (really nice receiver). I worked the test about an hour, had a good time. Many thanks to the ops who worked me. 72 de Gary W0ITT FP #3988

Couldn't find much bacon tonight. Only 4 Qso's on 40m and 5 on 80m. Signals either weak or QSB. Maybe better luck next month. Thanks to all the piggies I could hear. >('o')<
N5MEP, Larry, 5 fpqso=8 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=0 spc=8 total=192
My first time with this event. There were storms close by making copy rough for some of the stations. Sorry if you called and I couldn't copy you. Signals were getting weaker second hour here on 40 mtr band.

WA2JSG, Curt, 5w fpqso=6 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=0 spc=6 total=108
To be honest, I forgot all about it until a friend sent me a text (thanks Karen hi hi). So I was able to get an hour in and squeak out 6 contacts. Will put it on my calendar for next month.
WZ2N, Greg, 5w fpqso=7 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=0 spc=5 total=105
Great fun in my first run for the bacon. Didn't quite bring home the bacon with only a half hour to run but I'll be back (assuming I remember). Love the sprint formats especially QRP!
72 to all
