Hey, Mike, take it easy on yourself! That sort of stuff happens to
me all
the time, and in my case it is often self-inflicted. I don't
believe many,
if any, of these things happen intentionally. If they ever were to be
intentional, I'd just pity the person. Frankly, I don't recall any
issues
with our QSOs. I just hope I didn't mess up too often myself.
I had a blast working everyone this week. It was as much fun for me as
those calling me to watch the evolvement of the Club Log Leaderboard. I
hope I didn't offend to much of the DX community by turning the P49X
page
into a DX Hog Festival.
It was a challenge trying to manage 26 band-modes across 24-hour
propagation
and the various worldwide regionsduring the week leading up to RU.
I'm sure
there were deficits and it is a continual learning experience for me.
As for RU, what an adrenalin rush! The first couple hours were the
proverbial firehose. The personal best rates are as much
attributable to
all my QSO partners as to myself. I can only optimize my side of the
QSO
and must relay on the other operator's operating skill to achieve a
coordinated dance that logs valid QSOs at a high rate.
'Til next time,
Ed P49X/W0YK

Subject: [RTTY] I am no longer working P49X
Every time I went to work Ed, I screwed something up! I mean every
time.
Someone must of put some weird voodoo on my station.
The first time I was off freq of some thing. After that the computer
would
send my call after I had his info. Apparently N1MM decided that I
didn't
have his info. That happened a few times even when I was trying to make
sure it did not. I am still unclear what the underlying issue was.
Ed-Sorry to be a pain in your backside. I was amazed that in little
bit of
time how many contacts he had made on other bands while we sorted out my
mess!
I will endeavor to be more prepared next time. Thanks for the
contacts and
If you never work me again, I would understand! HI!
W0MU
