Hi Gang, I'm working on a program to look for passing in a Cabrillo log (i.e. work a station on 15 meters, send him to 20, and he shows up). It will have an adjustable threshold - right now it's hard
Eric, K3NA reminded me that I already wrote one: http://www.k1ea.com/utilities/ Look for "pass.exe". Must have been good enough to do twice. :-) I've had at least three feature requests that I will t
I have been working some more on my PASS program. Sorry, nothing new to download (yet). It was a lot of work adding the muliplier stuff in, I had no routines to parse the CTY.DAT file (but I do now).
Muchos kudos to the 7QP organizers and participants. What a turnout! I could not believe all the activity and excellent signals from the mobiles and fixed stations (at least on CW). I look forward to

9-land already has several successful QSO parties: IL, IN, WI. I don't see those going away. In 8-land, OH and MI are big, WV not so much. 0-land (except MN) and 5-land (except TX) are the weakest. 7

Bud, the ARRL made a BUSINESS decision. Whether we like to believe it or not, contesters are a SMALL minority of QST readers. They get the amount of space proportional to that readership. I agree it'

And they have a very expensive tube to replace. There are several published modifications for using cheaper, more readily-available tubes. 73 - Jim AD1C p.s. don't run the amp on 12 meters (24.9 MHz)
Using 100W, I have worked Europe, W6/7, Alaska and South America using a G5RV (102 feet long) up about 35 feet in the trees. It is ALWAYS louder than the HyGain AV-640 multiple-band vertical that I b
Along these same lines, it's better to have 2 radios that cost $5000 than one radio that costs $10000. You can't make QSOs if your only radio breaks. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, 7 Charlemont C
Hi Randy, You can install DX Spider and run it without connecting to another cluster. And it's free! See http://www.dxcluster.org/ You'll have to install ActiveState Perl and about 1/2 dozen Perl pac
Thanks, Ken. ICOM has a nice map you can download as well: http://www.icomamerica.com/downloads/WorldMap_ITU_LR.pdf It has a bit more detail than the map whose URL Ken provided. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim
I had the same thing happen to me on 20 meter PSK! Does this give me the right to call CQ on the frequency after the QSO is done? Also a number of people on PSK were sending "Please copy..." What a w
