W4HH - Lots of sigs on 40. See u next month.

WA7QCC - Bands were not too good tonight! Did work W1AW/7 MT and W1AW/9 IN. Still fun!

K1YAN - All on 40m tonight. Quick check on 80m but nothing heard. On a W1SFR cootie and KX3. Happy holidays to all and tnx for the QSOs.

K4KBL - 40 meters great until about 9:30 then no contacts even after several calls. QSB was a factor as well. Still enjoyed the time I was on !

K3RLL - Really, really noisy here tonight. Must be Christmas lights, not mine of course. ;-) 20m: Zip 40m: Lots of signals but very high noise level. BIG signals here were N5GW, probably with his towering 160m inverted L (which allowed Gene to hear my weak sig). Also the voice of CO, N0TA just booming into FL tonight - louder than all the Christmas lights together! See you next week and let's hope for quieter bands for our mW Sprint. 72 ... Don

N1HQZ - My first sprint and can not until next time!

VE3SIF - thanks for the contacts. tough conditions on 40 meters here. hope to see you next month. Happy Holidays. 72 Ron

WT4U - 40m RFI is still getting me down, but some good contacts rose above it. Nice to work John N0TA with good signals on 20m and 40m (80 would have been a stretch).

WX4RM - Had fun as usual, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!

NQ2W - Nice propagation between the Adirondacks in NY and Colorado at the start on 20m...3 stations worked there...all 3 from the great state of Colorado...that's cool! 40 was good up and down the coast and out to the midwest. 80 was good for neighboring states. John, KN1H, was in the noise on 40 but real loud and real clear on 80...my only two-bander. I hope to be on for the mW next week! I hope you hear me! Thanks for the contacts and the opportunity to participate. Happy holidays! 72, Will, NQ2W

KK4ITX - Wow, tough night here in FL. I was shocked to have WG8Y come back to me and I got all befuddled but got through it. I worked 20/40/80 and only managed one, wonder what will happen in the mW?

KD0V - 40M was good here. Thanks everyone for the QSO's.

N4MJ - Not a good night. Prop Princess is upset. At 0200z she turned off the propagation. Tnx to all participants. 73 and Merry Christmas to ALL de n4mj

KC5F - Welcome back, winter! Nothing much on 20m, 40m long and 80m wide open. Lots of fun. Thanks, all! Now to pack up for a POTA CW ATNO activation in the morning...

K1MZM - Not much action on 40 meters tonight but the signals on 80 were strong. Thanks to everyone for a good time. Hope to see you next week for the micro-watt sprint.

K9NUD - Had a great start on 40M but it kind of died. Moved over to 80 and after a slow start, I got a few pileups. Finally got to S&P a bit at the end. Thanks for all the great contacts!

NA4O - Very tough condx here tonight. Only heard 3 stations- finally got one of them. Better night ahead, I hope. KX3@5W, Vibroplex straight key.

N2TNN - Bands started slow but picked up. Some really low member number was nice to see. Great event as always.

AB4QL - QSB was rough tonight. My best Christmas wishes to all! 72 Barry

K9QEW - All QSOs on 40 meters. Nasty noise levels and QSB. Hopefully, better conditions for the QRPp Sprint. 72/73 & STAY TUNED! Daryl

N8DD - Total blast once again. Also doubled as a fox hunt, but I only bagged the one in GA. Wily they are. 72, Chas

K3JZD - Tough sledding on 40m. Moved to 80m. Seemed like a good turnout - just couldn't hear everyone. K4 at 4.9w Merry Christmas. 73, Jody - K3JZD

KN2G - Another great night even with the Foxhunt! Sorry for the double dupe (yes double dupe!) on Steve KC5F.... Forgot to change bands on the logger the first time and scrambled several calls on the second one because of the foxhunt. Gotta love the chaos. Every sprint is a new reason to laugh at myself for something! See you all on the Milliwatt sprint next week. 72

K4KRW - I actually got to work most of the sprint tonight. It was great to hear a bunch of familiar call signs. My contacts were evenly split between 40m and 80m. A fair amount of QSB tonight. KX3 with Bencher BY-1 paddles. Thanks everyone!

KN1H - Thanks to Will, NQ2W, for all the work pulling my S-nothing 40M signal out of the noise. 10 minutes later we were 599 both ways on 80! Should be real interesting next week in the MW! 72, John, KN1H

VE3IIM - Nothing heard on 20m tonight. Not too much time this evening.. 72!

AA2VG - Had fun with my AT Sprint 3 B. For the last few QSOs on 80m I took out the old Heathkit HW-9. 72 Peter AA2VG

K6GPB - Wishing all a Happy Holiday Season with many QRP QSOs in the coming year.

WB1GYZ - Glad I hung in there 'cuz bands kept getting better.

W6WU - Just got done antenna repairs yesterday. All my antennas had been down from two big branches dropping on the support lines. It's been a while, really enjoyed this evening. About half on 40 and half on 80, only 1 QSO on 20. Big shout out to Jim ND9M, great to hear you again. Thanks to all.

AA5LH - A tough night here in CO, Ladies & Gentlemen. With 20M DOA & no 80M ability, this only offered the 40M marginal option. Noisy conditions and deep QSB, it really challenged the K3. However, like all Sprints extreme Fun and our ability to 'have a GO of it'. Merry Christmas to All & tap at you next month. Take Care.

K7EK - I enjoyed this event. Looking forward to the next one. Lots of signals on 80m and 40m. 20m was mostly dead at this location.

K2OID - Conditions were a bit unusual on 40 tonight. Mostly longer skip with no "regular" skip (few mid Atlantic and no New England from Western NY) but got Florida, Colorado, Alabama. Glad to finally work N2ESE, Gary, after seeing him in the results almost every month. Fun as always.

WG8Y - HI all, Started on time. Made one Q on 20M and the phone rang. Only lost ten minutes on the phone but 20M was dead when I got back to the radio. Did some S&Ping on 40M then decided to call CQ. Worked a couple stations and my highlight for the night was having DK1VD, a fellow qrper call me. Pretty cool. Took a couple go arounds but got him solid. Fun stuff. Went to 80M. Worked up the band then went back to 40M and picked up KK4ITX, Fl, calling CQ. I then went back and called CQ on 80M till the end. Had fun. See everyone in the QRPp Sprint next week. Let's hope it's a "Silent night". Hi Hi 72 all from N.C. Mark WG8Y

WA8SAN - HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL AND THANK YOU TO THOSE THAT DO THE WORK TO KEEP THE CLUB MOVING FORWARD.> 73 Mike

KC3RN - Had to quit about 30 minutes early. My logging program stopped talking to my radio. Still had fun.

K4PQC - Interesting that the NAQCC and QRP Foxhunt overlapped and I was able to do both. Lots of fun and I am sure I could have done better if I had a sidetone monitor... My only Monitor for transmitting with the straight key was a blinking light. (You can use an expletive for blinking. hi)

NF8M - Op time about 30 minutes. Home station operated remotely, hence no straight key this month. Tnx qsos & cu milliwatting.

DK1VD - could not attend all months . But December was successful S&P and quiet signals could hear more but only 4 in the log thank you very much Happy holidays to all healthy start in 2024

NN3E - Thanks everyone for the QSO'S 40 meter was the band tonight for me Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Stay safe and healthy 72 Kevin NN3E

KE5YUM - I didn't hear many signal in this my 149th sprint, but the one I nabbed was a good one. Thanks to W1PQO for hearing me in less than ideal conditions. FT 817 CW Morse Straight Key

W8GG - Hello Fellow Sprinters ! Using FT857 at 5 w to Gnd mnt vertical wid 10 buried radials. 20 was just winding down at contest time, 40 was vy noisy hr in south Fla. DEEP QSB.Several stns were there one min gone the next. Lost 3 QSOs that way. I did bag a few QSOs tho to keep from being skunked. My ears were shot after 30 mins so i pulled the plug early. Hope to see many of u in mw sprint next week. 73 Gregg W8GG

KQ1P - The QRN here was S7 to S8 and it was tough making contacts. Had to QRT early.

KM3D - Only worked the first hour but had fun. Hope to see you guys in the MW Sprint next week!

WB8ENE - It was too late for 20 meters, and my antenna does not load up on 80, so I spent the duration on 40. The band seemed a bit long, and QSB caused some problems. Thanks for the contacts. 73 and Merry Christmas, Art

K1IX - Bands were active with other stuff managed only a few Q's but still fun quit early with back issues. tnx for the Q's 73 Frank

KC3MIO - Conditions were different than usual. I heard N0TA on 20 but he didn't hear my reply. No other signals were apparent so I switched to 40 and made more contacts than I usually do in the first half hour, but that band ran out here in PA and I switched to 80 where I made over half my contacts. Usually I find contacts difficult in the last 30 minutes, but 80 was active to the end. I am especially pleased to work Fred DK1VD on 40 - it took me a few tries to realize he was from Deutschland, because the ears expect NA stations. Hope to see you again next week in the MW sprint. 73 and thanks for the contacts.

KD3CA - Very tough band conditions here. QRN , QSB after loosing 4 stations in the QRM ,I gave up. 73 to all Don

KA2KGP - A pretty good turnout for this sprint. Both 40 & 80 were in decent shape here in WNY. Rig: IC-7000 w/G5RV up 25 ft. w/ old WWII German Junkers straight key. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays everyone. 73

K4JPN - Only one QSO on 20M, and slow start, then 40M and 80M picked up. As usual a lot of fun. 72, Steve K4JPN

KB2GKC - 40m band was good !

N3CAA - Pretty bad condx here, especially on 40m. 80m wasn't much better. With only 3 in the log after 40 minutes, I decided to call it a night. Thanks for the QSOs and hope conditions are better for next week's event.

W1PQO - First Sprint in awhile so a little rusty

WA2FBN - Tnx Fun sprint 72 Ken

K4BAI - I was a fox the QRP Fox Hunt that started 30 minutes after the NAQCC sprint, so I thought I'd make a few Sprint QSOs before the fox hunt started. Listened only on 40M and keard only KD0V who could not hear me calling. But during the Fox Hunt, I did exchange NAQCC numbers with W1TM. so am submitting a log for that one QSO. Hope to work many more next month. Don't have a rig set up to run under one watt, so will miss the Milliwatt sprint next month. 73/72, John.

AA0W - Poor conditions 40 metes only usable band.

N5GW - Very little heard on 20M which had closed for the most part. 40M had QSB and sparse signals, so I elected to go outside and sit in a nice warm spot next to my fire pot!

W2SH - I only operated during the first half in order to join the 40m Fox Hunt where I earned the two pelts, but these took me a full hour and both events had by then concluded.

N8LA - KX-3; 5W; 200' Dipole Up 35'; NAQCCode Warrior With W8GG Finger Pieces Wired as Dual Paddle Side Swiper by AD0BI. Thanks to all who worked me and apologies, especially to AA5LH whose information I was unable to copy completely, to all I was unable to pull out due to QSB, QRN or QRM. Wishing you and all of your loved ones a wonderful holiday season and new year. Lou, N8LA
