Thanks for a fun contest. It's the only time I run into some of these guys on the air. Looks like we are finally getting some activity from Lapeer County - FB! I should have spent more time on CW! 73/88 - WZ8C  Thank you for all your work with the MI QSO Party. I'm already looking forward to next year's contest. I'm not really a "heavy" contester, but I like the relaxed atmosphere of the MQP. Had a great time giving some of the stations a new multiplier too - KD8LU  Murphy came to visit twice. The VCO unlocked, fixed it then tuner went crazy - smoking inductor. CU in 95-always fun - K8PG  We all wish to thank the OPARC for sponsoring such a laid back contest that newcomers feel comfortable in participating! 73 - N8SHZ  Thank you for all your efforts in this contest. 73 - N8TFR  When I saw the MI QSO Party listed in May's CQ magazine, I decided to make it my first contest effort. I should have taken it as a bad sign when a cup of coffee spilled on page one of my log. The old Kenwood blew my only set of finals after 2 hours into calling CQ. Had to break out the one watt QRPer for a couple local contacts. See you next year. 73 - N8UKD

Although contacts were a bit scare on this beautiful weekend, compared to Mass QSO contacts, Michigan stations were very much in evidence! 73 - K1BV  Thanks for sponsoring test, will be more active in next one. 73 - WA1OFT  Many thanks - N2KJM  Had lots of fun in this contest. I beat my score of last year, and hope to win in N.Y. again! - N2PTF  Nice QSO party! 73 - WA3JXW  1994 MI QSO Party was the year of the "multiple county line" stations! About one third of my QSOs were provided by these remarkable MI hams. I'm sure there were more hams involved behind the scene to activate all these counties, and they didn't get to use their calls. Thanks to well organized stations, KG8CO, K8AQM, N8FGB and N8LXQ/m and their support crews for helping me put 47 Mich. counties in the log - WT3H  I enjoyed the contest very much, but I wish you would have separate awards for QRP and CW only operation - K3WWP  Multiple counties & QSOs seem pointless and artificial. Always a pleasure. 73 - K4BAI  If I just had not been required to spend some time with the inlaws, I'm sure records could have been set here. CU in the Texas QSO Party! - W5HNS  Sorry that I dad to go work on QSO party. CUL - WB5TPW  It was a fine QSO party. Problem was poor condx on both 20 & 40 and other bands were vy poor. Hope for better condx next time. 73 - W6NNV  Condx extremely poor out here - W7YS  Had a ton of fun! Found out that S.C. is scarce. 73 - W8CNL  I was confused about how your county line operators were to be counted. It is unusual to get multiple QSO credit as well as multiplier credit. 73 - KJ8J  I enjoy the MI QSO Party. This year I worked all that I heard. It seems that the RS(T) reports in QSO parties/contests are superfluous. I suggest that reports be removed from the exchange in these evnets. I was asked to repeat my call 3 times for one station and he gave me a 5/9 report! 73 es CU next year - K9DIY  Thanks for another fun contest! Lots of activity Saturday night, but everyone else was sleeping in at 1100 UTC Sunday - NV9V  It was very funny to enter the contest. I do hope to find more activity next year, particularly on the higher bands. Condx on 40/80 were bad for me due to very high QRN - LU6EF
