Ah yes, I stand corrected. Multi-single mult stations should not call CQ. (I don't do multi-single). CQWW rules are pretty specific "...The multiplier station cannot call CQ." 73, Igor UA9CDC _______
The rest of the story is very simple (aside from my m/s CQing feaux pas) the issue is what if one of these m/s guys makes a QSO with a non-mult by mistake. Let's say it was V26O's multiplier station
Suggesting that a rule be changed is OK. Suggesting that a rule be maintained as-is is OK too. Supporting violation of the current rules because you think the current rule should be changed is NOT OK

Dave, The point is if you're operating alone, you're a single operator and if you're not operating alone, you're a multi-operator by definition. It's really that simple. -Bob ________________________

Dave, (continuing my non-official disclaimer) I'm seeing your point exactly, and this conundrum is precisely why I keep trying to re-focus the discussion back on the basic definition of what it means
Ken, You're making a conclusion about "-B" calls in the UBN that is incorrect. A "-B" callsign is not necessarily an invalid callsign. It might be invalid, but in many (perhaps most) cases the "-B" d
Guy, So, is what you're saying that the 20m antenna is slipping on the mast? I think that you have the 15 on the same mast, but from what you said, it's not clear. To stop it moving, you need to eith
Just curious why you consider connecting your radio to your PC as something that is not easy? It's either a RS232 cable or a USB to RS232 cable and it takes almost as long to write about it than to d

Just to be clear, this petition is not on the ARRL web site; this is on KE4CRR's ISP so don't let the "ARRL" in the petitions' URL listed below fool you into thinking the ARRL is involved in this. Th
If you look at a cluster at all during the contest, by definition you're assisted. Confirming callsigns using such methods even after the contest is considered cheating as well, so just log what you
Pete, Thanks for quoting the pertinent rule. That rule needs to be changed. The "remote operating point must be located within the same DXCC entity" doesn't serve any purpose and this Azores operatio
You cite "traditionally" as a reason to refute Mike's assertion. Didn't we traditionally use paper logs too? Seriously, where do you draw the line of demarcation to what is embraced as a new developm
No, it does not. The RF is not changed at all. It is as someone else said, where the mic cable (or other devices - key etc.) is extended by the Internet between the operator and the radio. So, to the
