Comments:

AA0CW   Nonrookie   CO
Everyone I contacted was licensed after 2014 and all were very excited about ham radio.
 
AB7BB   Rookie   AZ
Thank you so much to all my contacts...so much fun! And thank you to all the subtle helpers out there assisting the rookies!
 
AC2SA   Rookie   NY
Felt the conditions were not the best, score is less then last year BUT I still had fun and will complete my final years next year. Thanks to all who contacted me.
 
AF5OI   Nonrookie   AR
Enjoyed working the rookies. Good to see so many YLs on the air.
 
AG4YL   Rookie   GA
This was my first Rookie Roundup, and my last as a rookie. Although band conditions weren't the best, I had a blast! Thanks to all of the veterans out there who were tirelessly working us rookies, and to all the rookies who got out there and played some awesome radio! It was great to hear a lot of YLs too! 33/73 and I look forward to next year as a non-rookie - I'll "see" you on the bands!
 
K0DLJ   Rookie   NE
My first contest, I had lots of fun making QSO's. I also had some rag chews in the middle with some old hams. I know I probably missed some other QSO's while rag chewing, as I chatted with KN3PAT first licensed 1959 for 20mins or so. But I didn't care as he was a real joy to chat with. That's what this is all about in my opinion. Thanks to the ARRL for sponsoring and organizing the event. 73's
 
K0RJW   Nonrookie   MN
Nice ops, many YL's, they did a wonderful job working the pileups! See you on next one.
 
K1AUS   Rookie   MT
Poor conditions on all bands at my QTH made for few stations heard and fewer heard me. As I was licensed in November of 2014, the rules won't allow me to be a rookie next year but I will be on the air to support the rookies.
 
K1ECU   Rookie   CT
Thanks for a great contest!
 
K3JAG   Rookie   PA
I am using the n3fjp logging program and show 11 multipliers but am unsure which contacts generated the multipliers. I have just put all 11 into the US States as the only other contact I had were 2 with Puerto Rico.
 
K5IX   Nonrookie   TX
Always a pleasure to work the rookies. Here's hoping the Class of '14 will join us Veterans in passing out points to the new crop of rookies next year. See you all in the upcoming CW roundup!
 
K6MHS   Rookie   CA
Thank you for running this contest for the rookies. The band conditions were not very good, but we got a lot of practice setting up and trying different antennas.
 
K7MWT   Rookie   WA
14 years old
 
K7TMT   Rookie   WA
11 years old
 
K8IKO   Rookie   OH
Another fun contest, despite the band conditions!
 
K9GWS   Rookie   IL
Conditions were tough but I worked 50% more stations this year than last year so I happy and had a lot of fun.
 
KC1BTA   Rookie   MA
I had a really fun time during the contest! Thanks for holding this Round-Up for the newbies!
 
KC1DKY   Rookie   MA
Good times! 73 to all my contacts :D
 
KC1EKC   Rookie   MA
Very interesting experience!
 
KC3FAU   Rookie   DE
Seemed to be a low non-rookie participation. As I did hear some hams on frequency but didn't get contacts with them. Maybe they thought they needed to be a rookie to work me.
 
KD2FLG   Rookie   NJ
Thanks to all my fellow Rookies/contacts and the ARRL event that made this possible. Wish band conditions were better, but had a good time. 73's.
 
KD2KEN   Rookie   NJ
Had a great time though band conditions were terrible, had AM station blasting 40m for me most of the time. Also, wasn't sure how to log a mobile contact that was in VA from NC (didn't log NC so didn't count the multiplier, already had VA).
 
KD9DGZ   Rookie   WI
My dad and i worked together under team northstar on his radio. We registered but never received the comfirmation email.
 
KG5ARD   Rookie   TX
Due to lightning and storms I had to stop after a hour and a half.
 
KG5AYB   Rookie   TX
Please use as check log only

KG7MXL   Rookie   AZ
Thanks for sponsoring this contest. There is a lot to keep in mind and record. Much more to learn...
 
KH6/KM6ARN   Rookie   HI
Operated from NPOTA TR18 in Hawaii. Thanks everyone! 73
 
KI7CLD/W7NB   Rookie   OR
I wasn't sure how to submit this, I was being assisted by a control operator (W7NB). Let me know if I need to redo this using the email above. Thank you
 
KK4YEM   Rookie   TN
Last year as a rookie, and first year mentoring. Pity the bands didn't cooperate until the last hour of the contest.

Would also suggest stretching this to a 12-hour contest so more rookies can get used to the grey-line under tutelage.
 
KK4YOK   Rookie   FL
It was fun. Thanks to all who supported the Roundup !
 
KK4ZUU   Rookie   VA
gemagnetic noise s2-s3.5
 
KM4CML   Rookie   TN
This was my first individual contest. :-)
 
KM4IXW/AG   Rookie   VA
This was great fun as my first contest!
 
KM4JDM   Rookie   TN
First contest, learning the ropes. Thanks!
 
KM4JPW   Rookie   NC
I was using my Ameteur Radio Clubs station to transmit with, at one point, 4 "elmers" to guide me. Got a call from a "Silent Key" and according to the guys teaching me, some hard to get contacts. Had a good time learning more about this hobby!
 
KM4ODS   Rookie   NC
1st contest. Learned a lot...Had a great time.
 
N1FD   Rookie   NH
This was a multi-op entry using the Nashua Area Radio Club callsign, N1FD. AB1QB hosted the contest at her station and was the control operator but the rookies did all of the operating and logging.

We all had a great time at the contest. All of the rookies were licensed within the last 6 months and had little operating experience. This contest was a great opportunity for all of new hams to get on the air and work a pileup! We are all excited about the next rookie roundup on RTTY.
 
NS2H   Rookie   MO
Great to Participate in my first ARRL Rookie Roundup!
 
NT4Z   Nonrookie   FL
This was a lot of fun. Most rookies did exceptionally well. I told one to relax and do not worry about making mistakes. We all make them especially those of us who are older. I am encouraged ham radio is still growing. Thank you to those who worked behind the scenes to make this a successful event.

VE7KCY   Rookie   BC
Super fun!
 
W2ONT   Rookie   NY
W2ONT is the club call for Ontario County RACES in the Finger Lakes Region of NY State.
A beautiful day of operating outside on 40 and 20 Meters using a single station.
 
W4UTX   Rookie   GA
Had a great time!
 
W6BJB   Rookie   CA
Had a great time from Double Peak park in San Marcos, CA (north county San Diego). Worked a Yaesu FT-857D with Buddipole. Great to hear some super young folks out there too!
 
W8BEI   Rookie   OH
Conditions were terrible in South Western Ohio (Cincinnati area) worst I've seen it since I received my Extra in November! We need a re-do!!
 
W9MCP   Rookie   IN
My log is so small, as I was only on for 30 minutes 23:29-23:59 UTC I can list the calls in case anyone has a simple check/typo error. Also, I called as W9MCPstrokeAG as I upgraded yesterday 2016APR16 so people may have entered it with or without the /AG. KK4YOK/Donna/14/FL, AK5CT/Bill/14/MS, and KM4JDM/Edward/15/TN
 
WA7DHQ   Nonrookie   AZ
My first Rookie Roundup and had a delightful time. Propagation wasn't
the best from my QTH but the Rookies were able to pull out my weaker signal from the noise and the pile ups some of them had. All in all, the Rookie ops did well and were most concerned with accuracy in logging which slowed them down a little. Good bunch of new DXers.
 
WX7JM   Rookie   AZ
This was an awesome contest and I believe it is my last Rookie Roundup since I wasn't able to participate in 2014. It was a fun contest and I wish conditions were better, but in all I hope everyone had a fun ARRL Rookie Roundup and got lots of QSO's. 73 de WX7JM!
