Hello all: To borrow from K4OJ, the 1999 Georgia QSO Party is less than 48 hours off. SECC and SEDXC want to invite everyone worldwide to work Georgia stations this weekend. I am attaching the contes

Hi Mel: I think one of the reasons that many of us (myself included) give out a lot of 59 and 599 reports that we don't really mean in contests is that two of the three contest logging programs I am

Hello everyone: Neal, K4EA wanted to receive logs for the Georgia QSO party held on July 31 and August 1 primarily by e-mail. But he has had some kind of a problem receiving his messages since the co
I have no idea how long it has been sitting there, but I just found the results for the DX Contest on the "Members Only" page. This is material for the October issue of QST, so it's certainly there e

Bruce: I haven't read the new rules yet, but there never was a limit on band changes for the single op. If it specifically says there is no limit for multi ops, there must be no limit at all. 73, Joh
My Sept-Oct NCJ just came in the mail today, and I wonder if anybody else received a copy with the same problems as mine. I have a completely white page--as in no printing at all--on what should have

The rule seems to prohibit soliciting SSB stations to go to CW in a CW contest and would also seem to prohibit going to WARC bands even on CW for that purpose. I tend to agree with Henry, Jim, that t

Hi Bill: I have experienced the inability to send those letters beginning in the late 1980s in 48-hour operations. The worst to try to send is the slash bar -..-. for me, at least. This year with a t

Hi Jeff: Boy, you had a great signal here most of the weekend. Unusual conditions for 10 meters. On the other hand, we had almost no loud signals here from the W1/2/3/8 areas. I'd always want you to

I think most checking software would show HG1H as a "busted call" based on the fact that it is one off of HG1S and the credit would be deleted (plus penalties in some contests). That was originally t

The worst problem I have with cw readability in contests is the very large number of stations who have dots that are so light that I can't read them easily. I guess this results from too many ops usi
I was just browsing through the December QST today, looking at the contest rules section, and noticed something that may be a bit surprising about the RTTY Roundup this weekend. Maybe this is intenti
160 isn't the only band that feels the operator-ethics crunch.... there are a quite a few East Coast stations which often sit in the narrow Japanese DX Window on 80m SSB, endlessly calling CQ -- WHEN
Re the hate mail somebody just received: On the other hand, I had no trouble finding all the DXers on 40m this morning. They were all there right on top of the XW30 transmit frequency giving out thei
You can get a 4 pin connector at any Radio Shack. The ProSet has a miniature Phone plug on the mic lead. Wire up a socket connected to the appropriate pins of the 4 pin plug. 73, Bob N5NJ -- CQ-Conte
