I think this would an excellent tool to brush up on operating skills. Make it few hours sprint, it could be held even weekly. With new crop of SDRs and "computerized interface" to the rig, this could
Looks like we will have to put Tesla Cup 2006 on hold due to lack of preparation and support. I was extremely busy with business and work around restoration of Tesla House (old WOO AT&T Ocean Gate si
CQ is what do you want to sponcer? But The question posed is WHAT is there to sponcered? I know this is about SS but My local club applies to it ALL contests. Just where do we draw the line..? John
operating time'... which is of course meant to stop time limited classes from listening for an opening or scanning bands for multipliers while they are in their 'off' time. << Looks like time to upda
Another aspect of "cheap monoband amps" is that you could optimize the amp for particular band, without worrying about resonances in the tank/choke circuits, losses in shorted coil turns, band switch
Very good points Martin, Most of us who are hanging onto contesting for 30 -50 years started as SWL, listening on crappy radios and sloooowly worked our way and matured to the top score boxes. First

Let's make it clear once for all, ASSISTANCE during the contests relates to finding and "feeding" the operator with activity of stations on the bands during the contests. That means providing the ca
Brilliant or maybe not. The distance concept scoring provides big advantage for those located on the side of heavily populated areas. For them each QSO is huge points, for all you suckers in a "pot"
Howdy dreamers! It is nice to see some discussion going on how to improve our existing lopsided contest scoring systems. To perhaps answer some points from Jim's post, we been there, done it, with Te
You can be entertained instead of operating in the contest. :-))))) Quo Vadis contesting? 73 Yuri, K3BU thanks for the points to those who called and had fun operating instead of watching REAL TIME!
Nothing new, we been moaning about it for years!!! Or picture (me) poor slob on 160 in the middle of the W/K/N ocean of stations that would like to work in the contest, only to find out that band suc
Simnple CQ WW solution: Own country QSOs count 1 point. Own continent QSOs count 2 points Other continents and space count 3 points. This would bring the CQ WW into the 21 century, simple scoring sys
Did you read what you wrote? :-) Like, uhm contradicting yourself and proving the point that we are not looking for ideal, fairest contest in CQ WW but for scoring system that would eliminate gross
