While there is an element of truth to what Simon says (sic), the problem Ward describes shows up more often than you think. THe solution is very simple. Cabrillo files are specified to be ASCII. Ther
For those who participated in the 2005 Michigan QSO Party this past may, the final results of the event are out on the MiQP Web Site http://www.miqp.org. We're proud to have been able to turn these a
Bob, This doesn't happen. The sender's exchange is the master, which the receiver's log has to match. Of course, the sender's log has to accurately record what was sent over the air. Every year in th
Matt, I own both radios. I've had the IC-765 since 1989; it is one of my favorite radios which is why I still keep it around. I bought the TS-850 in 1998 as a traveling radio for Caribbean trips. Bot

Nodir, This *may* have to do with penalties and whether the penalties are shown deducted from the published total. For example, I work 1000 QSOs and 100 multiplers, and have ten bad QSOs which cause
That list is certainly not all inclusive. There are a lot of contests which use Cabrillo as their "official" format but have not taken the time to be put on Trey's list. As for being "more responsive
My experience has been that it's not true at all. I own six FT-1000Ds and two FT-1000MPs and have used MarkV and Fields at stations I've visited. We were down at WP2Z for CQ WPX SSB in 2004 where the

I believe the quote from Paul Harvey is "And now you know the rest of the story", which in this case is what people are still waiting for... K8CC _______________________________________________ CQ-Co
Just a friendly reminder that the deadline for submitting logs for the Michigan QSO Party from last month is only four days away (5/17). Electronic logs (Cabrillo or ASCII) can be sent to logs@miqp.o
When we operated from C6A in 1998 for ARRL DX CW, the callsign on our licenses said homecall/C6A. I would have much preferred the CEPT method to garner more attention from CQs, but we felt the licens
As one of the people who created the NAQP, I'd like to contibute a to this discussion concerning the rationale on multipliers in this contest. While I would not presume to speak for the current conte
I think that might have been where the 1985 ARRL National Convention was held? I drove down from Detroit to Louisville for that one and was mighty impressed with the facility and it struck me way bac
Having been to Visalia three times in my life (from MI) I have to agree with Mr. Neiger. Visalia is a wonderful experience. However, if you're expecting Dayton when you go to Visalia, you will be dis
I'd be very careful if I were you. The relay in my IC-756 (non-Pro) is rated (according to the manual) at 16V @ 0.5A. My Henry 2K (modified with a Kilovac HC-1 and a P&B KHU-style relay for the input
I'd point out that not all beams have nulls directly off the back. Many yagi designs have a lobe straight off the back with nulls somewhat off the main axis. Before you start trying to DF off of null
When I went to college down in Arkansas, I used to operate with John, the original N5DX (now an SK). He was a dedicated DXer and a heavy smoker, and he used to blow the smoke into his C-Line while he
