Why would making SO2R a seperate category "inhibit competitive operating practices"? No one is suggesting you not develop operator ability. What you are saying is you want to be a "Joe Lewis" fighti
Interesting article on MSNBC. Yogoslavia will cease to exist and be replaced by 2 "replubics", Montenegro and Serbia. Seems they will vote on full independence in 3 years. 73 Ed
To make a short story long, I spent the afternoon redoing the coax to the TH11. Just as I am about finished..UPS delivers 2 pre cut lengths of RG-214 with PL259s on each end. Well, one of the lengths
-- This is interesting. While browsing through CQ yesterday, MFJ has a "beacon" device on page 21. Sort of confusing.....first they say the unit has to be hooked up to a radio RX, and then later, say
Not only the above, but he posted a derogatory message on the Logger reflector which was so bad the sysop removed him from the reflector. I maintain the master data and friend files for the RTTY guys
Guys, with all due respect, this thread has worn itself out. That jerk has caused more disruption on all the reflectors that he's worth. Governments are governments and they do what they wish. Someon
Well two points here, and I completely agree with Dave in his entire post. These "last 2" callers have been taught their bad habits from super inflated egos running "list lizard" nets. On the other h
Comments of manipulations of these files are enjoyable. Just thought I would mention that I use the ADIF files to track down QSLs which have been sent, but not received. It's written in QB, and simpl
Have to agree with Tom on most of his points, but it does seem we could cut a little slack for a person asking for a QSL. After all, QRP is just a niche among thousands of others in this hobby. As fo

May I offer my apologies to ZF2NT and any others who may have been offended by my post. I just completely ( and still ) missed the "humor".... Oldtimers is my only excuse. 73 Ed
-- Guys, I know I'm showing my ignorance here as regards this topic, but would it not be a better solution to incorporate logic in the contest program software which would detect if a telnet or rf cl
-- Well, I've admitted ignorance in this area, but there are several ASCII characters which will not print on the screen. Mostly in the lower number range. A line could look like: Operator(s):K4SB an
If you really want to have some fun on 2 and higher, try locating a power substation in a fairly deserted area. Back up the vehicle so that one of the bumpers touches the chain link fence. Then liste
Fellows, with all due respect to both sides of this discussion, I am getting sick and tired of reading about it! No one is going to change their mind, or anything else. If you must keep this up, woul
Just don't understand this. How can you get a bust because the other guy made a mistake. In the first place, I seriously doubt "millions of contacts" being process for an entire year on all contests,
Have to disagree with Mike on this. DU1/ and /DU1 are not identical calls and would not show as a dupe. And who would be crazy enough to change his call during a contest? Yes there is. You're suppose
