Well, I have never operated SO2R, but I use 2 keyboards all the time...as in every weekday for "all day." I have one PC running with dual monitors and a laptop running. Both are connected to "work" m
I agree 100%. Celebrate is definitely the wrong word. Besides what was already mentioned, how about Memorializing. I was working in NYC that day....and the day after too...one of the very few classes
During NAQP, I noted that both Susan and Richard King changed their name. Not sure why. After the contest, I had an email from Susan with an explanation. Oh gee whiz. This kind of news is never a hap
Even though I joined CWOps in Jan 2010, this is the first year that I've been active (since working remotely instead of in NYC). Are any of you interested in making a "CQ Contest" team? I didn't incl
Please ignore this message. One of the guys on my distribution list has his email start with CQ (same as CQ-Contest) and I missed it. I requested that it not be posted, but I was too late. Sorry. de
For CQWW SSB 2020, we had over 9200 logs (including check logs) and a total of over 3.7M Qs. Your guessed numbers for logs and Qs are reasonable, but your resultant math is off by a power of 10. It a

To the best of my recollection.... The original digital "spotting network"was done using 2m packet. It was making use of packet radio. DXing had nothing to do with it. It was ALL contest driven. My u
OK...I found the information. The "WB2" who ran 2m packet at K2GL N2AA was WB2KMY, Doug Sharp. And it was 1986, not 1985. I was pretty close ! de Doug KR2Q ___________________________________________

I get your point and mostly don't disagree. When it comes to medicine (not referring to covid) "facts" change all the time. E.g. women getting hormone replacement therapy as a "safe" option for menop
Tnx for that clarification Randy. I was responding to the request for the ops associated with each team, as asked by WW3S. I was lazy and just did a copy/paste, which happened to include the claimed
HI Andy, Based on your comments, my SOAPBOX is empty cuz I was not a "winner." LOL I'll think about something to add for your story...Like how many more DUPES called me this year as compared to last
Just FYI... I was reading through the write up for CQWW SSB 2023 and noted this: https://cqww.com/results/2023_cq_ww_dx_ssb_results.pdf (Scroll down to *The Director's Thoughts* section) Excerpt show
