1. [CQ-Contest] Re: dupes & RTTY (score: 1)
Author: desmith@Telalink.Net (Doug Smith)
Date: Thu Jan 8 11:41:30 1998
Re: sending off dupes.. On CW, understand that a fair percentage of the folks you work can't copy 100% at the speed you're sending. Many of them only got your call & exchange because they listened to

Since someone has obviously been talking about me<g> Yes, it was really W9WI. At least in my copy of the regs, 3.794 is still a legal frequency for LSB emissions, and to the best of my knowledge, it

Author: desmith@Telalink.Net (Doug Smith)
Date: Tue Jan 20 11:10:28 1998
Just a quick clarification.. It is very possible AD1C tried to inform me I was in a DX Window. Several unidentified stations did so. (once the jamming started, it is entirely possible AD1C and/or som

Author: desmith@Telalink.Net (Doug Smith)
Date: Sat Jan 24 13:07:05 1998
I'd kinda like to hear from the programmers (K8CC, N6TR, etc.); is it even *possible* to write a reliable native Windows contest program with the features we expect? Contest software does more direct

Date: Tue Mar 10 12:25:09 1998
I see ON4UN and another DX operator noted in the SSB contest something that bothered me in the CW one two weeks ago. To wit, the blatant theft of run frequencies. I understand the operator who honest

Just a reminder: the Tennessee QSO Party is this Sunday, September 28, 1800-0100z. Exchange RS(T) and state/province/country (county if you're in TN). Recommended frequencies are 1815 and 40KHz up on

Author: desmith@Telalink.Net (Doug Smith)
Date: Wed Oct 1 12:40:04 1997
The tone is rather abrasive & the spelling could use some help but... to some degree, the complainant has a point.. as it does appear many of the RTTY operators were *not* listening before transmitt

sleep bit Agreed. After a brief semi-night's sleep at K4VX, I've usually found a brisk walk around the antenna farm is good both for the brain and for the (badly atrophied...) body.... In general, on

Date: Mon Oct 6 15:22:15 1997
Weird. I'll be rereading the 1996 TQP rules & trying to figure out why this didn't happen last year! As suggested by someone else, this runs into the county hunters & QRPers. Rather than move the re

And write off CW contesting on 40! Seriously, any part of this spectrum we open to U.S. SSB will promptly become chock full of regular activity. Activity that won't go away just because CW SS or CW W

It also had consequences for the DX stations. If I heard a DX station end a QSO without signing, I called him. And 2/3 of the time, it turned out to be a dupe. If the DX had IDd, I would have tuned

About an hour before the end of SS, I was CQing on 80 when a strong station (a known contester & good op) called. Sent him my exchange, went back to receive, and all I got back was a ?. Sent it again

Hmmm. I may not have nearly as many DX QSLs as Fred but of over 25,000 QSOs since January 1991, I'm 100% QSL for all first QSOs with that call on that band/mode too. Maybe it's something in the wate

Well, it becomes obvious after a few hundred QSOs that about 30-40% of the people you're working can't really copy CW at the speed you're sending; they're getting your exchange only because you keep

Author: desmith@Telalink.Net (Doug Smith)

Fully agreed. Is the Olympic champion in the 100m dash not a real champion because he couldn't run the marathon? We compete where we feel our strengths are. IMHO any category is valid as long as ther

Are we going to regret scheduling the 1998 Tennessee QSO Party on September 20? It *looks* like that only collides with the WA Salmon Run, Scandanavian Activity Contest, and 10GHz Cumulatives. Is the

I'll bet someone else out there has run into this one... K0LUZ CQing on one frequency (say 28010), K5NU CQing about 200Hz lower. K0LUZ ends a CQ, and I dump in my call. Both LUZ and NU send "W9WI 5NN
