This month's comments

AA2XB - Frank (37) Great month to end the year. Made contact with 92 different skcc members this month. 37 brag, 47 WES and 8 SKS. Thanks to all the members who made this a more enjoyable year and special thanks to Ed, W7GVE, we could qso for hours as long as band holds out. Rig is a Ten Tec Omni D and either a straight key or bug to either a cushcraft A3S beam or carolina windom ant. K3Y is a great way to start the new year.
F5DE - Bernard (34) I am happy to end the year with another Brag participation for a whole 12 month of being active for this nice SKCC activity.
73 es a very HNY to everybody and Family !
Bernard, F5DE.
F6HKA - Bernard (214) The best month for me with great opening all bands.
Thanks everybody and Happy New Year for you all your family.
73 Bert
G0RDO – John (1) Woops ! Only 1 QSO this month. I must try harder HI
K7ROH - Tom (50) Sorry .. Nothing to brag about here…
K8JD - John (39) So far in Jan of 2102 I have 10 less than the whole of December, 2011 . K3Y sure boosts activity.
KA8HFN - Larry (62) Thanks for all of the GREAT QSO's. Have a safe and Happy New Year. 73, Larry
KX1NX - Randy (55) Lots of fun this month with time off for Christmas. Looking forward to 2012 and K3Y. Also plan on building a K3/10w version in January so it will be a fun year in 2012. Hope to CU all  73 Randy
N3PDT – Doug (29) December was a very active month for me. Brags don't show it, but with the sprints and non-member contacts, I logged over 150 CW QSOs. Only 29 counted for brag, but I enjoyed every single one of them. Thanks to all.
W0SZV – Eldon (71) One of my better months. Had a lot of fun.
W7GVE - Ed (96) After 176 QSOS last month, 96 seemed very little, but that was a good total for this old guy---- 2012 was a great year for the SKCC-- There are many great folks out there--thanks
to all who QSO with this old braggart. 73 ED W7GVE
WA2JSG - Curt (13) All the best to a very Happy 2012 New Year. May our 'brag' contacts double!
WB5JWI - Les (14) End of December was great. I've gotten some good DX, have 4 of 6 continents. Gunning for WAC in Jan.
I also picked up several non-skcc and some duplicates on different bands. All in last 8 days of the month. Love the way the bands open up.
WB8YXF – Richard (64) Wow what a month and ending to the year.  I made C and T and WAS in December.  Thanks to all that I had a contact with, for without ya'll I would not have been able to accomplish this.  God bless everyone in the New Year and hope to see all down the log.
WL7WH - Bob (6) Bad year so far...lost antenna and tower in wind storm, lots of snow to plow (record snow fall for here) and many high wind storms.
