Conditions in the spring CW sprint were tough, though maybe not quite such a struggle as on SSB. Sitting at the south-west tip of Europe, Felipe CT1ILT repeated his success in the CW event. Unlike the phone event his score was not boosted by USA QSOs but his location was just right for working into most of Eu.

Second place is CW record holder Dmitri, RW3FO at the RL3A megastation, with a tie for third place between Fernando EA3KU and Ionut, YO9WF operating YP9W.

The leading low power station this time is Iliya, LZ4UU followed by Mario, S56A and Tom, OK6Y.

With QRM problems not so severe as on phone, 40m was the main band for most entrants and there was activity here right from the start of the contest, through to the end.
20m was a struggle for most entrants, and almost everyone made more QSOs on 80m than on 20m. Like all other contesters, sprinters can't wait for cycle 24 to start.
