SOAPBOX:

N2CN - Back on the air with my repaired ZS6BKW multiband antenna. Nice conditions on 80 and 40. Welcome all new members! .

AA5LH - Surprised from the start with 20M exchanges, though they were weak. 40M had some very nice pop-ups especially near the end where NY (K2OID) came through. Thanks all and hope to hear you you during the mW Sprint. Take care & be safe.

W6SMF - tough band cndx, only heard "local" calls, 40M was only band working at all for me....fun as always.

K2EKM - Pretty rough conditions - heavy noise made copy difficult. Ran 5w to a minimalist EFHW (cut for 40M) supported by a 12 foot painters pole. .

N8APO - Prior call was KB8FE. New call as of today is N8APO. Not as many calls heard tonight in north-central Ohio but some good signals were worked. .

K9OSC - Ane electrical storm came through right at Sprint time. Worked what I could hear and QRN took out just about everyone else. Very sorry for those I could not copy as your calls were much appreciated. Look for you in the MW Sprint or on Field Day. .

WD0K - One of those nights, check the antennae, connections, still no reception. Yes we had no reception. Of course then figured I had wrong night! no that was correct zelo time. Copied no stations on 20 or 40. Maybe next month! Have fun! 72 de Wd0K #664

AC6ZM - Nice conditions on 40 meters during this sprint. It was nice to see Canadians in the log this time. No west coast signals this time.

AB4QL - Nice to be able to jump back into the sprint again. .

K3ZGA - Wish I had more time, but, enjoyed the Qs. .

NN3E - Everyone stay safe and thank you fer the QSO'S 73 Kevin .

WD4CFN - Fun event! It has been a long time since I used a Straight Key! .

WA2NYY - Tonight was more work compared to last month. Lots of CQing on 40 and 80. The old Speed-X got a good workout! Spent about 45 minutes on 40, got tired and moved to 80 which was better. I think I was able to work everyone I heard. Still had fun. Mark-WA2NYY

AA9L - Amazing, with all the QRN due to the storm I made many contacts. Thanks to all that hung in there. 73 Rich

K2OID - N5AAS is a great op. took a lot of patience!

KN2G - Set up the buddipole again. Boss called so shut down early.

AB9BZ - High noise here, fun sprint though. Tnx for the contacts. 73 ab9bz .

K4EOR - Spent most of my time playing with logger. Probably local computer problem.

W0EJ - Tried but the noise got to be too much for me. .

W6STR - Backyard portable, TrailFriendly 20/40 efhw. Thanks to everyone. .

W2ITT - Fairly new op, second sprint but getting better and didn't need as many repeats. Thanks everyone for the patience.

AA0W - Storms in the area again. 20M and 40M only. Thanks for all QSO's. KX2 internal battery. Good to hear the CQ NA activity. .

AK3X - Got a late start as usual. Heard nothing on 20. 40 meters and 80 meters were in good shape with mostly very loud signals. Rig was an Argonaut V and a G5RV-ish inverted vee with a 290 ohm twin lead feed instead of the matching network. Thinking about getting it higher at the apex (currently 27 feet). Been thinking about that for a couple of years HI. 72 to all and looking forward to the mW sprint later this month. Peter

K5TSK - Tried early, but local thundershowers made static tough. Tried again last hour and a few stations could hear me. Only 40m tonite. 72.

KJ4R - Interesting conditions tonight. Only worked one station West of MS river. N0TA in CO. Very unusual not to work many 8's and 9's. Only worked one 8 tonight. Never even heard anyone in IN or IL, which are usually good here in SC on 40. Pretty much an east coast sprint for me tonight with a few exceptions. Had fun as always and thanks for the contacts. KX3 with Vibroplex bug to verticals. 73 everyone.

K3EW - 20 was open but needed a beam o breask through to coasat. 40 and 80 were in great shape. Thanks for all the QsO'S. first Sprint in a long time.

KN1H - Thanks everyone for another fun sprint! Hope to see you all in the milliwatt next week. 72, John, KN1H

K4ZEB - A little noisy tonight, enjoyed trying to pick up other's signals

NU4M - Have not participated in a sprint in a few years.

N5GW - KX3, rake tine straight key, hb tuner & doublet. Both 20 & 40 were in great shape considering the time of year during low solar activity. Great participation by NAQCC members. Getting ready for mW sprint next week.

VA3XAR - Great fun even though the band was noisy. 20m was less noisy but nobody on it... still waiting... Cheers Janek

WU6P - Fun as always. Band condition seems not that good today.

KC5F - 2nd month in a row the logger has frozen my computer when saving a QSO. I guess I'll try reloading it before next month... 40m the best here, as usual. Still fun!

K8NGW - 20M sounded good but everybody left after 30 minutes. Moved to 40M but with the static, my ears were hurting by the end of the sprint! What a great way to spend 2 hours!

AD4N - Terrible conditions here in East Tennessee! Far few signals heard than last month! Still marvel at what can be done with an MTR3b, a 9-volt transistor battery, and a ground plane antenna. Loving it! Ray .

W2JEK - Was a good sprint with good conditions. Had 7 QSO on 20 , 4 on 40 and 14 on 80. rig Yaesu FT-840 at 5w. to gnd pl and end fed antennas Welcome to the newcomers with 10,000 series numbers. A good time 72 DON

N8HZM - First Sprint. Search & Pounce. I'm slowwww!!! Had fun though.

N7KM - It's been a while since I've participated in a sprint. I operated from the picnic table in my back yard. This was one good thing about social distancing. It was nice to have good bands. It was my first time using the FT-817ND and it worked beautifully. I worked several other station but the QSB didn't allow me to gather the needed data. Thanks to the club leadership for keeping this activity going.

KA3TTT - I had bad conditions in Philadelphia. I tried to work a station and failed. I worked a station in NH and we both had to work at it. I heard another in Pittsburgh, the band must have gone short.

KI7LW - Rookie mistake, thought sprint was tomorrow night instead of tonight, left me with only a half hour to make all of two contacts. Never again (hopefully!)...

KQ1P - Great cdx on 40m. BCNU next month.

W6IRA - 40 meters not a good option here, but getting acquainted with the locals, one by one :<) .

N8XMS - Our son and granddaughter stopped by to deliver some groceries and then we sat around on the patio (6 ft apart) and visited for a while so I only had a few brief minutes for the sprint. There were quite a few strong signals on 40-meters. Maybe that's a good sign for next weeks QRPp sprint and hopefully I will have more time to play.

KD3CA - Got a slow start as bands were QSB and QRN .Bands were short skip for me , worked mostly east coast , with Mo the longest west of me. Sorry to those that called and I just couldn't make QSO Many thanks to all for the fun sprint , 73 Don

NF8M - Operated the first hour. Condx noisy but decent.

W0DCX - This was my first sprint or contest of any sort in which I submitted a log. QRPers are careful and patient listeners, so thanks everyone.

KE5YUM - Band conditions were good on 20 meters. Lots of signals.See you next week in the Mw sprint. Running 5watts with my FT 817 with battery power.

N0TA - Good evening - thanks for the Q's.

KG5HCF - Second Sprint with G90. Really liking the radio. Tnx to all who worked me es see you next month. 72 Dave

KF5TWJ - My first QRP contest. Got a late start but it was fun. .

K3RLL - K3 to my after-dark only black HOA Special vertical, and keyed by old E.F. Johnson Speed-X bug - a real joy to use. For the first time ever, some very kind op in PSL said I was the big signal on the band! (That never happened before!) RBN and signal reports elsewhere weren't so complementary. (SMILE) 72/73 ... Don .

N4OW - 40 was packed - 20 condx good, activity seemed low. Always a fun event. 72 de AL, N40w

WB9HFK - 40M only for this month. Rather high QRN levels here in East Central IL made for a rougher evening than usual. Sorry to anyone I just could not pull out of the noise. Great fun as always and thanks for the QSO's! 72, Mark WB9HFK

W6JIM - Hello Stan,W6SMF, good to work you again!

N4WD - Storms all around. Opened up just long enough for contest.

NC1A - Enjoyed this sprint - my first SK log submittal and everyone was very patient with my straight key efforts. haven't really used a SK since I got my novice license in 1965 - wow >50 years ago!! and, easy to load up log - tnx to AC2C...will try my "Blue Racer Bug next time...'73, George NC1A

N8LA - KX3, 5W, 200' Dipole @ 35', CW Morse Black Plastic Hand Key, MFJ-392B Headphones. Sincere thanks to all who worked me, including ex homeboy Gregg, WB8LZG, who worked me on two bands! Sincere apologies to all I could not pull out of the noise, including the NN(0SS?.) I have not been myself lately, to the approval of the XYL! However, listening to some of the political "commentary" about an hour before the sprint began caused me to revert to being myself and make some comments resulting in my being banished to the shack (and temporary) dog house earlier than usual. I was able to make some contacts on 20 and 40 before the sprint began. I wonder how many times communicating via CW instead of verbal speech has saved my hide. Anyway, so it goes. Best 72 to all and hope we can work each other next time. Lou, N8LA .

W2SH - 20m was open but a bit unstable in its closing minutes. Shorter skip arrived and a 600-mile QSO closely followed a 2,400-mile one. I had little luck on 40m. Not one of my many CQs elicited a reply. Also, I noticed that received signals were down in strength. After the sprint I found a coax fitting that was not fully tightened up. With thunderstorms, equipment frequently is disconnected and grounded. Here was an instance where it had not been put back correctly; receiving and transmitting were obviously both compromised.

WG8Y - Hi all,Put in a little over an hour tonite. Gud to hear so many signals. worked 14 on 40m then 4 on 80m b4 pulling the plug. Hope to hear lots of signals next week in the QRPp event. 72 from N.C. Mark WG8Y

K9EZ - Just a fresh reminder at how bad I send straight key :-. Thanks to all who put up with it LOL. Started out slow on 20. Perhaps should have stuck around there a little longer for mults. 40 had a lot of QSB.

K2CWM - The FCC approved and issued my new callsign K2CWM (replaces WA2JSG held for 46 years) early this morning, so it's been a rough day trying to make changes here and there. Some of my friends here were a little shocked when my new callsign didn't match my NA number in their loggers (hi hi), but that's understandable. Anyway, ran my old IC-703 at 4 watts off a 12v battery jump box into a vertical antenna. Used a little American Morse straight key. 5 contacts on 20m and 5 on 40m. Quit early. Great condx. Curt K2CWM (ex-WA2JSG) NJ

VE9BEL - It was a lot of fun tonight. SWL 449 N0TA in CO, but he could not hear me. Maybe next time. 73 Bernard

AI6SL - 20m and 80m were pretty dead. Most action happened on 40. Only 4 SPCs.

K2HT - N0TA was very strong into MO but guess propagation was one way because he never heard my peanut whistle signal. Thanks for the FB QSO'S, stay safe, and healthy. .

KA2KGP - 20m. Was good for a while, 40m. was busy & 80m. was good but QRN here in WNY. Rig: Icom IC 7000 at 5w. into G5RV up 25 ft. w/ WWII German Junkers straight key. 73 to all

N4API - Lots of NAQCCers heard on 40 meters, but QSB took most people out.

WB2LQF - Tonight was the baptism by fire for my brand new Vibroplex Blue Racer Deluxe. Forty meters was very noisy yet there were plenty of signals across the band. It was a fun night as always.

W0KFG - Got a late start. Seemed like participant's signals were a bit better than usual yet I had a hard time making myself heard. Then in the second half I was called by a drifty non-member, W9KMF, running a home brew tube xmtr and found myself engaged in a half-hour ragchew while making a new friend on CW. Of course I told him about NAQCC! I'd definitely call that an interesting and worthwhile evening.

KY0Q - Not much time tonight to get on the air but glad I was able to make a few Qs. Lots of QRN but some sigs were surprisingly strong and cut through all the noise. .

W6UG - Back in CA from my SC QTH. Wow..it was like I was still in SC! Worked several east coast stations 559 with my 5 watt KX2 on 29 with only a dipole. Never happened before! Is it because of the virus? Hi Hi

KC3MIO - I was amazed by the number and strength of the signals. I made a determined effort to work stations on 20 M and made five contacts. All bands were in play from PA, although 20 closed up a little after 0100Z. Now if I could only update the database on my Sprintlogger.

N4MJ - Good run tonight. 40m was quiet. Tnx to all participants. 73 de n4mj//glenn

N5AAS - Great night. Personal NAQCC best. 40m was working smooth. Appreciate all the calls, repeats and fun. Excellent ops all around.

W3NCR - It's been a while since I've done an NAQCC sprint. Glad it's still going strong. Had a blast. Thanks for the QSOs. .

WB4OMM - Great night! Nice on 20M to start, good signals and band quiet...died out here on FL East Coast after 45 mins. Went to 40M, a bit noisy, worked some more folks. Went to 80M, got one, but noise here got pretty bad, so I quit after 90 mins of Sprint. Nice to work so many new and old friends!! Nice to work some "out West folks" too! 72/73, won't make mW next week :( as I have to drive to Jax airport to get daughter. Stay safe! Steve WB4OMM

NA4O - Weak signals for the most part with brutal QSB here tonight. WK4WC was solid 599 when I called, but faded out completely before completing the exchange. I heard KB1M in NH, but I was too weak to get through. Every Sprint is different. But I say another successful one in the books!

K1IX - Been QRT for a while bu new HB HWEF long wire seems to be working ok at new QTH. 80 was very noisy early on so did S&P on 40. thnx for all the Q's 73 Frank

VE3GNU - A slow start, but successful on 40, and a bit on the noisy side, used the DXCC and the end-fed antennas this time. This---my fourth successful sprint in 'a row', and will our success continue? Thanks to all. Jupiter at 5 w. and Begali paddle. .

K4BAI - All three bands in good shape. 20M faded after a little more than a half hour. 40M was quite good, but no western area stations worked. QRN from nearby storms was getting bad when I went to 80 and was surprised by activity there as far away as VT. Only Western station worked was N7KM in UT on 20. Heard and called an AG7 station on 20 who was quite loud, but don't know his QTH since I never heard him give it. Thanks for all QSOs. 73, John, K4BAI.

NN0SS - Storms in the area. Poor Conditions

N2JJF - lots of stations on tonight on all 3 bands. .

K1MZM - 20 meters was open in the early part of the evening.

K4KBL - Great time tonight ! New antenna was outstanding...worked UT and OR among 43 other stations. Really enjoy our Sprints

KB1M - 20 seemed noisy and about to close down, 40 was loaded with sprinters, many CQ's were answered with a pile-up of what seemed to be 5 or 6 callers. Many thanks for the QSO's and patience with my repeat request, this was my best sprint score ever. 72/73 Walt

WB1GYZ - Gud Sprint, fair conditions, and one SKCC number to boot.

NR3Z - As always a lot of fun

K3EMS - Lots of QRM tonight .

K7RLN - Thanks. This was my first sprint, and it was a lot of fun!

WA2FBN - Lots of good sigs on 20 and 40. Tnx to all who worked the sprint. 72 Ken

WX4USA - My first sprint. New 60' long wire laid on roof 4:1 balun 25' rg8x. G90 with auto tuner. Battery powered. Vibroplex straight key.

VA2EO - This is my fourth naqcc sprint and still like it. For this one, I used my Sota portable linked dipole on top of my telescoping pole portable in my backyard. The only problem with this setup is that I didn't have 80m for nearer possible contacts. 73 de VA2EO (?ric)

NO2D - Only made two contacts but very time constrained. Dashed down to the shack to make these and then returned to family matters. Perhaps more next month. Thanks to all who make the sprints possible. Lots of fun. Pete, NO2D.

N4SO - CUL the 17th. Ken N4SO

K4KRW - Thanks everyone! Great night here. Lots of great signals and talked to a lot of my regulars. Decided to use my paddles tonight with my KX3. 73 Richard

WB8LZG - Hello fellow sprinters! fired up the FTdx1200 on battery pwr running 5w. 20M was open nicely at the start, and 1st QSO with Ol' pal N8LA,Louis, es I knew it was going to be a fun night. Got many gud mults on 20 before trying 40. 40 was gud too es swaping up to 80 es back netted many gud QSOs also. Talked to the Prez WB4OMM, on a newly jazzed up key, es finished up the night with newcomer N8KH #10332, Operated the entire sprint fer a change, es had a great time. See u all next week milliwatting. 73 Gregg

KU4A - Had a house guest so put in a brief appearance just to keep my Sprint streak going. It sounded like 40 meters was in good shape.

N2RIC - This is the first time I've participated in the monthly Sprint. I spent two hours trying to fight through S9+ noise that sounded like frying bacon.
