I guess it is time to come out of the closet on this. I personally, have a hard (check that), impossible time keeping up with the QSL requests for contest Qs through the Bureau. I have not answered Q

Some have called the practice of getting on for a period preceding a contest on a certain desirable frequency cheating. Do you consider this cheating? Are any of the Qs logged before the contest put

Rick, I have to tell you that I am "amazed" that a YN could work 3100 Qs in ARRL DX and I never heard a peep of him. As SO2R and "combing the bands" with my south facing 10M and 15M beams while CQing

I notice in the 2006 rules for WPX contest, that the mention of 60 minute minimum off times has been removed. Is this intentional? Even if not intentional, how can CQ ding someone for less than 60 mi

Duncan, I have used a number of vee beams, both terminated and unterminated. Usually fed with open wire line. Personally, I would not suggest using them for contesting unless you live in an area like

I would be very interested in reading a write-up of an FTDX-9000 owner doing a contest with true SO2R operation. One that used to do it with 2 radios and now is doing it with one. If there has been s

Guys. My situation over the past few years is a "case study" on what is really important. 2 years ago, I moved a full bore SO2R set up (FT1000MP/FT990, Dunestars, 6-pack, DXDoubler, Hard Line, etc.)

A great question and one that has no "fixed" answer. I can only offer comment for myself. First of all, I NEVER use auto CQ. It keeps me awake in the middle of the night for one. Secondly, the timing

Contesting is not video gaming. And, quite frankly, I don't see dedicated gamers being fruitful ground for new contesters. For me, contesting is much, much closer to stock car racing than gaming. It
