Comments:

AB1QB   NH   Rookie
This was a great introduction to SSB contesting. I really enjoyed working the pileups on 20m - it helped to give me the confidence to work SSB as K2K in the upcoming 13 Colonies event the week of July 4. Thanks to all who worked me and for your kind words and encouragement!
 
AE7DW   AZ   Rookie
With bad starting conditions, I thought things could only get better... These were the worst propagation conditions I have ever encountered in my 11 months of being licensed (Hi-Hi)... I am very proud of all the contacts I made; I really had to work for them!!! Best contest ever!!! Thank you to all of the great radio operators that hung in there and dug me out of the noise..you guys and gals are awesome!!! My sincerest apologies to those I could not get through to or pull out of the noise. 73 de AE7DW.

KD0TSX   MO   Rookie
Great contest! 100 watts makes it interesting to find a spot and CQ, lots of rookies at the same frequencies I'm sure made it interesting for the veterans who came back us. Above all, thank you to all the non-rookie stations willing to take the time and give a rookie a point!
 
KD2ARU   NJ   Rookie
Interesting - Late in contest started hearing non rookies getting back to contestants. Some of the 20m time found a lot of fadding in and out. Learned to time calls based on that cycle time.

Big thanks to AF1T for making contacts with any rookie out there.Unfortunately, this was my first and only Rookie Roundup; but I will be out there next year to give the rookies some points.

Very fun to see so many old timers, licensed 40-50 even 60 years coming out to work us rookies! -NZ9Y

W7PXL/K7JLP   OR   Rookie
My very first experience with HF was extremely fun. Thanks to my club members W7RIL(Riley) and N7IY(Peter) and the use of the club station W7PXL, I was able to reach out farther than the 2m/440 repeaters I have been albe to experience so far. My focus on General and Extra just shifted into overdive from this experience!

Thank you!
 
W8WRK   OH   Rookie
our newer operators had a great time!
 
WD7I   WI   Rookie
Thanks for running this nice contest.
