Thanks Gary for that information. It is the first of this kind I have seen. Pete, N4ZR has reverse engineered the board and has produced a similar instruction. From the info from the two sources, I c
Yep, I bought that one. Now discontinued or sold out. Replacement model here. http://www.goodluckbuy.com/12v-8-channel-wireless-rf-switch-relayremote-control-315mhz-for-light.html de Milt, N5IA --Ori
Yep Gary that is the one I purchased. But it is no longer available. However, I have been sent information from another 'listener' by direct E-mail that the nearly identical item is now available in
All, The relay sale deal mentioned by someone a few days was certainly for real. I ordered some (1,000) on the 12th and they arrived in my rural mailbox today. Anyone interested in putting some on th
Dave, Don't forget the very nice K1EA, PC expansion slot boards that worked stupendously well with both CT and NA DOS logging programs. When I purchased one of those it was like heaven to be in a SSB
Paul, It most likely doesn't apply to a large percentage of Hams, but here locally I am a member of a large group of Hams who use digital microwave in the amateur bands for remote control of base sta
Yes, just one week and 7QP 2013 will be history. For Dink and all the other mobiles plus all participants everywhere, look for the K7EAR expedition to the semi-rare Greenlee/Graham County line in sou
Mike, It is impossible to reason with anyone who does not have a semblance of common sense. They are so wrapped up in their tiny ball of me, myself and I, that they are incapable of looking at the wh
I also checked the certs on line for my operations in both the CW and SSB 'tests. The process works very well for printing. I also compared the on line certs with the 'Official' certs which recently

Well, I don't get to do many runs to EU on 160 Meters, but it surely is exasperating (a kind understatement) to be trying to dig out a real weak one during a JA "run" and after a minute or two rotate
Been there; done that. During the CQ 160 SSB 'test I operated as VP6DX from Ducie Atoll in February of 2008 there were two prominent "Big Guns" who never made it in the log because of their inability
Yuri and Pete, I find that on 160 Meters the JA operators are still 'Gentlemen'. I find that if I have just a single letter wrong in a JA call sign the other stations will not respond. In fact, at ti
You want to make it better. Distance scoring RULES. A meaningful exchange, ie. Grid Square for base scoring. Also, the band difficulty should be weighted for scoring which would also encourage more a
Exactly. My home is a bit less than 3 miles from the Zone 3 boundary (NM/AZ State Line). One more reason to operate from Zone 3!!!!! Mis dos centavos, de Milt, N5IA --Original Message-- From: Stan St
Hello Fabio, Yes, that is correct. My point is: Most of the CQ Zones are too large to implement anything new associated with the Zones. For example, I am a bit more than 2,000 miles (3,250 kM) from t
To make it BETTER, John!!!! Everything you say is correct. BUT, it is far from perfect. Anything that will make it BETTER should be a candidate for change. Mis dos centavos, de Milt, N5IA == --Origin
To all who are gearing up to operate in the Stew Perry Distance Challenge this coming weekend. You will note that I am the sponsor of one of the unique plaque offerings in the upcoming SPDC contest.
Hello Sam, The plaque is available to every operator in the SPDC, ANYWHERE in the WORLD. The only requirement is that all valid QSOs have to be made during sun above the horizon at the operators loca
Yes, that is correct, Hank. This particular plaque is oriented towards those with more sunlight AND the possibility of propagation to areas of darkness with many operating stations. Practically all,
