If you are a serious contester (meaning you use every feature available to you), you are NOT going to use N3FJP. Great stuff, but for beginners. Different strokes for different folks. As for all the

Electronic Surplus Sales in Manchester NH has miles of adhesive flooded heat shrink at very reasonable surplus prices. This is in the retail store, but if you call I bet they will ship you some. 73,
I guess I'm the guy designed to bust these tools... In SS, I operate from NH, VT and MA using W1VE, so the friend file is going to kill you in SS. It does so to a lot of people every time. In DX Cont
This was my first serious try at WAE -- and as a M/S. We tried not to send QTCs for a good part of the first day. When the rate slowed, why not? Best peak 10m rate was over 200 for the first hour, bu
Agreed. Many times I had callers Send QTC? and no QTC available for them. In order to start the QTC, I need the callsign! Example: them: QTC? me: Yes (I have some QTCs) them: <callsign> Me: NIL (not
I'm trying to help out a fellow contester who wants to fix his broken 9500. Anyone have/can take such a photo? please email direct. 73, Gerry W1VE gerry@w1ve.com or w1ve@yccc.org ____________________
Hey Mike, Some great replies to you so far... One other comment I have: You cut the subs based on frequency and velocity factor... I was recounted a story recently about a well-known contester who ha
"Win-Test also does a better job (IMHO) of making it known when a station worked on one band is a mult on another band." This feature has been added in the latest version of N1MM+. 73, Gerry W1VE ___

Agreed! I bet I worked 100 zero pointers this weekend. hmm... 100 x say, 5 seconds per Q = 500 seconds or 8 minutes out of 48 hours. Much Ado About Nothing. Work everything that calls you. Doing anyt
Steve, Spent many hours on 40m phone (yuck!) trying to work s2 EU stations with 20/9 background QRM, and many of those "types" calling me -- "DANG! You are the loudest signal on the band!" Yep, gave
I guess using a call with a six in it from the east coast makes you more interesting? We were spotted 88 times this weekend. I'd like to think it was the loud signal and the snappy QSOs that encourag
Hi Guy, Very interesting project! I'm writing a universal antenna controller app for windows that will control any of the following relay boards. They can be configured to control any standard antenn
I like the spotting advantage that RBN gives the little pistol on CW. Self spotting is perfectly OK in my book. About 10 years ago, I had an internet app called WhereRU. It used the N1MM broadcasts o
This summer, we took about an expensive hit at K2LE/1's station in Vermont -- Luckily covered by insurance -- but still a PITA fo fix. This station is primarily operated remotely except for the big 4
Hi Mike, It was me about the CW squawk. . I'm testing it with VE4EA... (My K3 front end got blown up by an in-band mistake at K6ND last weekend). Anyway, I made a 60 wpm wave file for "CQ VE4EA". For
So, if you are a little pistol or a big gun, in a CW contest there is RBN. Most are happy with that. If you could use the RBN for SSB, like CW, no need of a self spot to get spotted. No rule changes
LOL Tom... No roger beep, but similar :-) I'm sure you would rather have nothing, but would you prefer self-spots over the internet clogging the system with spots that you cannot copy, or some HS CW
