Hi All, Only 31 days until the 2017 Georgia QSO Party. Effective this year I'm the new contest director for the GQP. Please checkout our newly redesigned webpage at http://www.georgiaqsoparty.org . A
Listen to 21345.4 and 21237.1 at the same time. Falls under the "what is not specifically prohibited is allowed" rule ? And For those that missed it.... http://www.kkn.net/~n2ic/PJ4G.mp3 <http://www.
Sending a unique power like "73" cuts down on dupes. Especially when your call sign is spotted wrong. It's even worse if the station doesn't identify and people depend on that spot to get your call.
I think many people take this all for granted. I have contest friends who are non-technical but are probably capable of making the top 3. They probably have no idea how to hook up something to their
If I'm not mistaken the PJ4G station is available for both WPX contests this year. Both ARRL DX and CQWW are taken every year by club members but everything else is usually open. See http://www.pj4g.
Comparing a VHF contest to a HF contest, especially one like CQWW is comparing apples to oranges. There are tens of thousands more participants in CQWW then there are in the most popular VHF contest
Just a reminder that today is the deadline to submit your log for the 2017 Georgia QSO Party. Any logs submitted after 0000Z ( 8:00 PM EDT) today will be check logs. Thanks, Jeff KU8E http://georgiaq
All this talk about SO1R vs SO2R doesn't really matter. If the guys who do SO2R didn't do it they would still beat you because they all have a good station and good operating skills. I never really u
I live in a HOA neighborhood. When shopping for a home located in a nice subdivision it's almost impossible to find one that doesn't have one. We moved to where we live because the schools were good.
Barry, Maybe consider flying to either Columbus, Ohio (CMH) or Cincinnati (CVG). Both are about a 1 hour and 20 minute drive from the Crowne Plaza. I flew into CMH last year and my RT fare on Southw
I'm getting some RFI into my WX0B Six Pack when only transmitting on my Inverted L for 160 meters. It doesn't do it on any other band that I have connected to the antenna switch. It lights up all the
The 2017 Georgia QSO Party results have been published to the web page at http://georgiaqsoparty.org/ . Our awards manager should been sending out the plaques in the near future. Thanks to everyone
I love CW contests with a passion but I might consider not doing CW SS FT anymore. I took just about all my off time in one stretch starting at 0800 Z so I could get a decent nights sleep because I
That's nice Kelly but in the end most people just want to have fun and right now Sweepstakes isn't on Sunday. That shows with the lack of activity on Sunday. I can't think of another all-band contest
/If ARRL contemplates any rule changes (nobody is saying they are) how about this one? Allow me to enter SS and actually send an exchange that says WHERE I ACTUALLY AM ! ! ! ie "NB"...hello ! It's a
I wonder if I have to move to the US to find this reflector interesting.... Maybe the rest of the world (apart from the US) need to create our own contest reflector? 73 de RM2D, Mats Geez Mats, Isn't
I'm curious how most of you serious competitors are recording the CQWW DX CW contest? I downloaded QSOrder by K3IT to use in N1MM Logger +. After playing around it looks like it just records individ
The PJ4G contest station on Bonaire is available for some good contests for the rest of 2017 and into 2018. There might be some dates available for some of the major contests in 2018. If you have any
Ok. So how do I handle this situation? Say I'm on DXpedtion and a DL sends me 599 100. There are lots of people that operate CQWW that aren't contesters that know what they are supposed to send. May
A very easy explanation. The M/S winner in 2016 CQWW DX CW - CN2AA - would have been in 3rd place in M2X and 2nd place in MM if they had entered those categories. From what I can tell they would run
