OK, I thought I could stay out of this one. We have a local here with the call K0AHP. The first time I talked to him on the air we were on 10 meter SSB and I was mobile. When he ID'd as K zero adenoi
Sometimes I think the thing to do would be to work them and not even ask for a callsign, just not log anything on my end. If enough of us did that and sent in logs, they might get the idea (probably
Just look at the 80 & 40 meter bands (not band plans, the allowable bands) around the world and see what they have to work with. Japan has only 300KHz or so on 80 meters, so everything shifts down. A
The GPS should work most anywhere outside. Cell service not required. growth and this will be a boon to those ops - Next question would be does an iPhone work in those countries? https://market.andro
It looks like our high school reunion will be in Sweden next July. I am thinking about bringing the K3 & laptop and maybe doing some contesting. The reunion itself is in Malexander, Sweden on the 11t
I penalize them by using the AltW key. Same thing for those that only ID every tenth Q. I did not get a complete exchange so they are not in my log. They did get a complete exchange so I am probably

Looks like I will be in Hamburg the evening of July 3 and Copenhagen on the evening of July 4. Anything going on? Recommendations for hotels or restaurants? On my way to a high schools class reunion
I wasn't on this weekend, but I have a tendency to give these stations a call and if they work me without giving me their call I can't log them. Oops sorry they lose the Q. If everyone would do this
Like I have said before. I will call and if I get an answer, but no ID I just don't log them. I do not ask for ID I don't tell them they are not in my log. I just move on. Maybe I will try to work th
I really will only wait a Q or 2 at the most. Then Cntl-W and I may be in his log but he ain't in mine and it is not my problem anymore. And no I don't need anyone to approve or disapprove of my acti
I am certainly not a BIG TIME CONTESTER and I have tried using the cluster in a contest or 2 that do not make a distinction anymore. And I have to say that I am slow enough already without taking on

It's never to late to send in an entry. Great thing about the Poisson d'Avril don't have to worry about time worked, classes or any of the piddly little thing people complain about in those lesser te
I keep expecting Paul to object to running connected to the grid. We should all just have B+ and V+ batteries. Don't you know they use the internet to keep the power flowing. -- Jim K0XU jim@rhodesen
Look where they sell photo albums. I inherited several photo albums when my father passed away that look like what you are talking about, made for 4x6 photos 3 pockets per page. Might be a little ove
Why is this such a bitter pill for some people to swallow? The station is in one location and that is the location that counts, That is where the RF comes from and goes to. When you add the hardware

This did not happen overnight, there have been requests from Eric and others for a number of years. And their concerns were shared on this forum. I guess HQ was finally convinced. ___________________
I seem to get a few and I have a friend who's suffix is the reverse of mine who says he gets some for CW contacts he assumes are mine because he doesn't do anything but phone. Actually, since the sub
