Hi Mark, That is exactly what I wanted to point out. Working LSB on 7125.5 or USB on 14.150.5 makes your transmission illegal. During the recent WWDX many stations were operating outside their freque
Transmitting on a trx readout of 14.150.5 with 2.7kHz bandwidth in USB means that the transmitted signals appears from about 14.150.5 to 14.153.2. The LSB signal stays well within the band limit and
Excuse me, please read "an LSB signal..." 73 Peter --Original Message-- An USB signal on 14150.0 is already completely out of band! _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing
Hi Andy, That ?actually? probably means your transmitter. I canīt send send anything higher then 2.4kHz and lower then 130Hz with my Icom IC-740. But I could transmit a 2.7kHz band width by using my
Sure, a decent antenna and 100W beat 4KW into a GP easily 73 Peter --Original Message-- From: cq-contest-bounces@contesting.com [mailto:cq-contest-bounces@contesting.com] On Behalf Of Zoltan Szoke Se
Sure, you should be penalized. The signal report i.e. in CQWW is an important part in that contest: IV. NUMBER EXCHANGE: Phone: RS report plus zone (i.e., 5705). CW: RST report plus zone (i.e., 57905

You just have to make sure the other operator logged what you transmitted 73 Peter I have no control over what is logged by the other oper. The discussion on this rule and the RDXC rules in general i
You are right Henk, but somebody mentioned it as a new "DX cluster" experience for contesters. Probably the next step will be the bundling of all web radios worldwide and streaming that it into the I
You guessed wrong. To become a better operator you just need to find the stations you like to work without assistance 73 Peter I guess in order to get my "better" operator status back, I need to brin
Donīt do that. Using no standard spelling causes even more confusion 73 Peter --Original Message-- From: cq-contest-bounces@contesting.com [mailto:cq-contest-bounces@contesting.com] On Behalf Of Tom
Then everybody has to use the same antenna setup as well (like in WRTC). But location is not levelled then either. 73 Peter I am all for doing EVERYTHING possible to increase participation. But I am
What I see as one possible reason for all that trouble is the fact that the rules for the IARU WM do not clearly show what is just hidden in the ARRL contest rules: Extract: 3.3. An operator may not
Hi Art, The Mai 2010 test report by RadCom magazine conducted by Peter Hart, G3SJX shows top of the line performance. 2-tone dynamic range at 2kHz spacing was measured at 109db and 104db at 500Hz spa
That only applies to paper logs and when qso points are claimed for the dupes 73 Peter Rule 13.2.3 states that:- A 3 QSO reduction will be assessed for each duplicate QSO found during log checking or
I heard spotted WRTC stations without callers 73 Peter Not true - I heard several calling CQ and not getting callers. _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-Contes
It would be much more fun and competition for everybody if the cluster would not exist at all. But I think the good old times without mouse click qsos are gone and will not return. 73 Peter However f
I was aware of that from the beginning and still donīt like it 73 Peter We kept our heads in sand about DX Cluster for 25 years and now comes surprise about some bad side effects. ___________________
Give them away anytime somebody asks for them. Some "serious" stations run 100W only and donīt expect high qso counts. For them the QTCs are even more valuable. Keeping them until late in the contest
It will be not more frustrating then waiting for the identification of another dx station while doing s&p. Advantage is, you know already the call sign and that it takes one more minute of waiting fo
