We had lots of fun at K3LR - the very best part is being with good friends in the K3LR shack and talking to our radio friends all over the world. 48 hours of pure magic that never ever gets old. Special congratulations to the W3LPL and KC1XX teams. Both teams did very well considering the challenging conditions. 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 with our friends. Propagation was not the best. 10 meters was a challenge for N3GJ this time. 10 meter band mate LU7DW was always chasing down multipliers on the second station and running LUs and PYs. The 15 meter team of K3UA and DL6LAU stayed busy with some rate and lots of rotors turning. 20 meters was amazing. K1AR, N2NT and N3SD were busy for all 48 hours - what a team! 40 meters was much harder this year but KL9A, W2RQ and K3LA never gave up - good job by these veteran contestmen. 80 meters with N5UM and AA4WJ worked very well with lots of digging. N2NC did his usual job of working through tough conditions on the topband to find lots of multipliers! Way to go John! Glad to have Sal, WM2H back with us for the WW, awesome Chef SAL. 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 his help. Greg, W8WWV and Tim, W3YQ both spent long days here at K3LR over the summer helping with various antenna and shack projects. Big thanks guys! Thanks to K3LEA for helping keep us organized.

Hope to hear you on the air for the CQWW CW DX Contest in November! >From all of us here at the K3LR TEAM Very 73, Tim K3LR BAND QSOs QSO PTS PTS/QSO ZONES COUNTRIES OPERATORS 160 449 540 1.20 24 79
