Congratulations to all of the teams around the world that had fun this weekend

in the Multi Multi category.

 

We had lots of fun at K3LR, the very best part is being with good

friends in the K3LR shack and talking to our friends all over the world. 48

hours of pure magic.

 

Special congratulations to the teams at W3LPL and WE3C. Both teams did very

well. It is great to have this close competition, never knowing who

will finish on top.

 

Thanks to ALL of the operators at K3LR for special moments - new stories and

making memories that last a life time. Propagation was much better than we

expected! 10 meters hung in there with N3GJ finding rare openings on skew and

bent paths, running like crazy when the band did open, and never giving

up on a QSO. 10 meter band mate LU7DW was always chasing down multipliers on the

second station. The 15 meter team of K3UA and DL6LAU really stayed busy,

with great conditions the QSOs kept coming. 20 meters was amazing, N6MJ,

K1AR, N3SD and K3LA were busy for all 48 hours, what a team! The MUF was

very kind to 20 meters! 40 meters was the best ever from K3LR with W5OV, W2RQ

and K3LA posting a new high water mark, good job by these veteran

contestmen. 80 meters with N5UM and first timer W3CDG worked well,

amazing DX with great multipliers. N2NC did his usual job of working through

tough conditions on the topband to find 61 country multipliers! Way to go

John!

 

Sal, WM2H and his assistant Liv took care of the team for all 48 hours with

outstanding culinary treats. Whenever we needed something (including a few

QSOs) Sal and Liv were there!

 

Thanks to Dave, W9PA for all of the hard work he does to get us ready for the

contest events. We could not do it without W9PA. Also thanks to Bob, N6TV for

help setting up the new voice keyers (inside the Icom 7851). Greg, W8WWV and

Tim, W3YQ both spent days at K3LR over the summer helping with various antenna

and shack projects. Big thanks guys!

 

This was the first contest using the new Icom IC-7851s at all RUN positions.

What an outstanding radio! We can’t wait to try them on CW!

In a few weeks we will post our CQWW Phone 2015 photos on the CONTEST PHOTOS

area on the K3LR web site.

 

Hope to hear you on the air for the CQWW CW DX Contest in November!

 

From all of us at the K3LR TEAM

 

Very 73,

Tim K3LR
