You don't have to spend any money at all to record a contest. You can download Audacity for free. Your only investment would be a few bucks for a cable to run between the microphone in on your compu
Here's an idea. Why not have a pre-registration process before the contest that you are going to be a serious entry? Much like we register teams for the NA Sprint and NAQP. Only entries that follow
Tom, I was thinking more along the line that you wouldn't register for a specific category (.i.e .15 meter single band) but just that you are planning on operating in some SB category seriously where
Anyone need a member for their CW Sprint team this weekend? I'm available. I will be SO HP. Jeff KU8E -- *Jeff Clarke* Information Technology Professional Ellerslie, Georgia My LinkedIn Profile <http
Wouldn't a DX contest be really fun if you could only work a DX station only once and not on multiple bands? NOT!!! That pretty much sums up what I think about the current Sweepstakes rules. I'm not
Oh no! Are we now going to see a bunch of strange names in the next NAQP? I'm surprised no one has thought of using a one letter name like "A" or "R" That would probably work better on CW than SSB I
Hans, You seem to be a pretty smart guy. Before you start making comments like that maybe you should look at the past results. I support Sweepstakes even though I don't necessarily like the rules.

The 2018 version of the Georgia QSO Party is only a few weeks away. I have been working hard to publicize it inside Georgia to get more fixed stations to get on the air. One popular feature we added
Hi Jeff, I've enjoyed working these SE State QSO Parties for years, but last year may have been my last, thanks to rovers abandoning the higher bands where I can work them hours before those bands cl

I think those who are criticizing the WRTC selection process are missing the point that you needed to apply to the WRTC organizing committee to be considered as a TL. Apparently most of the competi
Tim and others... All this talk about remote stations is really a moot point. I know of no one building a remote station anywhere other than New England. In fact some contesting friends of mine are i

It's possible to qualify by doing low power. Your score would be compared to others that are doing low power and not the high power scores. If you do that you won't have to compete again the "big gun
