The final *version 2.0.6* of the FQP tools has been posted and is ready for download. There is a minor route/timing tweak for one mobile and, unfortunately, NF4A had to cancel his mobile plans. That
I am wondering... was this office-holder transition "gun-slung" at the old OK-Corral or was some other historic 'settlement methodology' used for an orderly transition? :-) Congratulations to the out
There is no tool I am aware of that will dissect an IN7NEQP Cabrillo file into three parts and score each. I am not certain what would happen if you tried to import the combined file back into separa
Some initial issues were revealed in the Beta IN7QNE Cabrillo Log Parser that have been fixed in Version 1.0.1. It has been posted for download. In addition to correcting a parsing bug, some tables h
If it's really a "prefix" contest, what has distance or bands got to do with it? A true prefix contest would award (let's say) 10 points for each unique prefix worked. Allow those prefixes to be rewo

I don't care for cut numbers other than 5NN, the standard "synch pulse" of contest exchanges. During the WPX last weekend with very poor conditions, those using cut numbers hurt themselves and the st
I do agree with Jeffrey's comment. At the beginning of a contest, I (you) anticipate zero fills in the front of the first 99 numbers with a "T". This is not the same as later in the contest when you
In the N1MM Logger the PageUp/PageDn keys can be programmed to +/- your CW speed in any increment you like. Mine is set to +/- 1 wpm. But also, you can program the Shift + PageUp/PageDn keys for a di
I can't resist... :-) III. CONTEST EXCHANGE: report plus zone. What zone? My heating zone, building zone, CQ zone, ITU zone... ? The rule "assumes" the new contester knows what zone you are talking a
