Hello Costas,

Until it is not forbidden by the Rules, you can't say it is cheating.
The other hand I also do not agree with such kind of operation. This is only the skill how fast you can playing with the keyboard.

The guys who make big scores use the following technique: they call CQ in their speed, let's say 30wpm. When one station replies, they write the call and press the PgUp button to increase the cw speed a lot (let's say 50wpm). They give their reply in this hi-speed. After that they reduce their speed to their standard (30wpm) and say TU. The new stations answer the standard speed. This way they gain a lot of time and they can achieve more qsos. I don't like this and I would like to see this to change. I am sure that I had watched a video with a guy doing this but I can not find it now.

Kostas,

I don't know about the cheating or uploading any scores. I always play MR in HST mode. CTL-F9 to start. A 10 minute run with fixed parameters. I'm not aware of any way of cheating, but who knows...

Hello to all

Morse Runner killed my everyday CQs. I have worked them all so everyday CQ does not offer much to me, except to find new friends. So I prefer to play with Morse Runner sometimes. I hate that Morse Runner allows you to cheat! So I don't upload my scores anymore. I would like a version which does not allow it. But Contesting is something different. I am trying to explain it to my Club when we run together. CQing and having a good rythm helps but we need good strategy also. I have won better ops than me because of my better contest strategy. So I enjoy much more real contests.

By the way I suggest writelog's Contest Super Simulator. It's also free and you can emulate so2r and some strategy also... See https://writelog.com/downloads/contest-super-simulator

Hi Barry (and all),

First thanks for contacts in the contest.
About Morse Runner: although I am a HST contester too, even a simple 150 Q/h rate causes me much more fun in the real band than a 300 Q/h with Morse Runner.
Of course it is only my opinion.
Did you know that Hungary will be the host of next High Speed Telegraphy World Championship?
It would be great to see you again .
Here is a short presentation:

The official Web page will be launched soon.

During CQWW this weekend, I was thinking how Morserunner has killed the thrill of contesting for me. With Morserunner, I can run 300-400/hr all day long. There's no sunspot minimum, no K index of 4, etc. Anyone else feel this way?
