 Good morning 
For a first time contest it was better than most a only few minor speed bumps, am sure that will be solved next year. 

Not bad with a loaded screw driver and only 16 temp radials 
Thank you Ken WB8PKK

 Ed, 
I agree, that should be changed. I also has issues on Saturday but was able to amass 185 Qs on Sunday without working hard. I used N1MM for converting the ADI to a Cabrillo format, otherwise I used straight WSJTsoftware & it worked fine.
It was their first ever digital contest so there are still some bugs to be worked out.
73,   J

I was able to operate most of Sunday after missing Saturday due to other
commitments.  As expected, most of the action was on FT4 since it is a
contest mode.  I would suggest that the contest managers tweak the rules
to require a "RR73" or a "73" at the completion of a contact.  There were
several times where I logged a station only to have them call me when I
was running which means my contact with them when they were running was
incomplete.  Requiring an end message will ensure both stations log the
contact. Yes, this delays moving on but that is the nature of WSJT-X
operation.

I logged 167 QSOs for a score of 1151 points using N1MM+.  Looking
forward to this one again next year.

73 de Ed
