2021  Idaho QSO Party          Results --- soapbox & wrap-up

On behalf of the Magic Valley Amateur Radio Club (K7MVA) a most heartfelt thanks to everyone who
participated in the 2021 Idaho QSO Party. With all the challenges of the past year we managed to rack
up 367 participants in this year's event. That is about 100 more than last year! According to emails
and soapbox reports you all had fun. That's what we want...for this event to be FUN.

Since the event is drawing more interest (and way more logs) we will be changing this up a bit for
future events. Due to the amount of logs being received we are working on ways to automate the
log processing procedure. With the help of Jim KK7A we are working on a system that should get
this processing down to a science. More on that as time goes but I can say that in order for the automated
process to work properly we will only be able to accept logs in CABRILLO format. We will no longer be able
to accept ADIF or EXCEL logs. N1MM has an excellent logging program that works very well with our
experimental automated process. Watch our Idaho QSO Party web page for more on this.

Thank you all again for your participation and we look forward to seeing your logs again for the 2022 IDQP!

73,
Kelly Klaas K7SU

Soapbox IDQP 2021



Found a couple of new counties in that endeavor. No mobiles
heard here in OH. Worked everyone I heard. Thanks - 73 tom
Rig = TenTec Eagle @ 100 Watts Antenna = Mag Loop (40 thru 15)
and an Isotron-80 in attic 12' above garage floor and an indoor
10 meter dipole. KV8Q

Only had a short time to operate 73. AG4I

Thank you for the 2021 ID QSO Party. KF3G

Thank you for Idaho. Rough Bands here Saturday.
Appreciate WG7MM - could hardly hear each other. AB3GS

Hopefully I got it ok.. Please pass my thanks to NI7DX with his Rover station..
excellent op and thanks to him for taking the time out to put all those counties on the air .
As well as the organizers for putting the event together.. AA2Q

Wow, that was fun! W6TDX

Busy day with three state QSO Parties running. Participated in two. Thanks... K3GWK

Thanks for a great QSO party. This was my first running instead of search and pounce. Thanks
to everyone for their patience as I was not using a computer to help decode CW but used
my paddle and ears only. Sure enjoyed this relaxed contest. N7GOA

A disappointing event. Was expecting something equivalent to Salmon Run. The ID crowd
didn’t seem interested in working anything in the neighborhood. Would be very interested to see
if anyone inside ID worked anyone else inside ID, since 80 and 75m were void of Gem State signals.
No expeditions, county-line ops, and only 1 mobile. Still, thanks for the QSOs and thank you for running
the contest. Maybe next year I’ll try working ID from a 20m remote site in mid-America. 73 John W7CD

Always a challenge finding Idaho stations. AA4TI

Thanks to all who participated and the folks who make this happen! Your efforts are appreciated!
Having 80M long on Saturday night was awesome! Fun times. WG7MM

I enjoyed the contest. JO7WXN

Operated as a portable, outdoors from a cold just above freezing, windy hilltop location as a Pennsylvania station. Thanks for all the QSO, AB1A

Thanks to all hams from IDAHO that have a time to make a QSO with me...
73’s from Germany
Daniel, DL2LDE

Thanks to NI7DX for the mult's. VE5KS

I heard and called about +10 stations, but no luck. The most
called station during this weekend was KA7T - I called him during
more periods more than 2 hours, but no QSO. OM2VL

It was fun looking for Idaho! W2CN

Thanks for all your hard work. KJ7BPN

"Greetings from warm and sunny Florida." K3TW

INDOOR OPERATION USING MAG-LOOP ANTENNAS AA0CL

K3/10 driving a Ten Tec 405 amp to 50 watts out. Made a few Q's, thanks for the Party! C U next time, 73, Dan ke0tt

80 watts to a 21' ground mounted telescoping vertical antenna. N1IB

Rig was FTdx5000 and Butternut vertical.
Did about same as last year. N7GOA qso is probably busted, QSB. W1END

There was little time to contest today. With an early Zoom
meeting, my second COVID-19 vaccine jab, a mid-day Zoom meeting,
etc., all I could manage was a quick pass on the N1MM+ Bandmap.
one later pass didn't pan out. I'll try again next year. 73,
Bill, K8TE

 

Both KI7ID and myself (both here in Denton TX)  spent some time in Idaho, so we have
a little friendly competition in the QP!
I was in Blackfoot in 1968, using the 2nd station call K7UHM, while training on reactors
for the Navy out at NRL.   Wound up a Reactor Operator on USS Seadragon (SSN-584)
Fast-attack submarine out of Pearl Harbor. 73,  Jim, W6LFB
