Jan 14-15 for CW and Jan 21-22 for SSB. I got these from Bruce. I have suggested to the Powers That Be that perhaps the dates could be made available on a more-like Fiscal Year basis - I plan my con
Hats off to Kirk for a really good summary of reality. I'm not sure this is as pronounced as it may seem - I counted them up in the 3830 archives and found: Number of Top Ten High Power guest ops*: 1
Somebody reading this with a 10 meter contest station should invite this guy over. Jacob, where do you live? You wanna come down to Oklahoma and operate? Mark, N5OT _________________________________
NX5M: N7MAL: Sorry guys, I'm not interested in entering a race against others using crutches only to find out that one or two of them who don't need crutches can go faster than me if they borrow some
I appreciate your post, MAL, thanks. My post was pretty much to say that if the sponsors allow unrestricted packet use at all times by all competitors as you propose, I would not be interested in pla
W2UP: KM3T: Thanks Dave. What you say is right on the mark. W2UP: I don't think it's much of a question any more that a significant number of guys pointing, shooting, then logging, are not capable of
VO1HE: Gads, Paul, please be careful when lumping me in with N7MAL(!) I must tell you that I certainly never "categorized all cluster users as 'cheaters'" and I don't think MAL did either. Mark, N5OT
W2UP: Barry, please remind me where I told anybody how to operate. I don't believe I did. Hey guys, that's two misrepresentations of what I said in about a half hour. How about reading before flying
This happens to me all the time because people think Larry, K5OT, and I are interchangeable for some reason, eh, Larry? I have never had a person whose "QSO B4" I replied to with "NIL" blow me off.
I think WRTC tries to draw a line between: 1. On-site contesting between champions 2. What we all do every weekend anyway There are marathons and there are marathons. I don't think I'd give a hoot a
Is there a form you fill out to get the discount? Where can I get one? Mark, N5OT (dead last on the SOHP Top-Eleven #$%^) _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-C
Cripes, what got into you, Ebenezer? Points off for insensitive language. Happy Boxing Day. This is the day Scrooge only THOUGHT he was throwing money into the streets and shouting "Merry Christmas"
Various comments about shack RFI and computer monitors: AND AND For some reason, when I switched to flat screens I noticed an improvement too, but lately the RFI grunge is creeping back. I believe th
Hi guys, FYI all my surplus RFI filters are spoken for at this point. Thanks for the quick response. If I see another large lot I'll grab it knowing there is lots of ham interest :) Mark, N5OT ______
Jim Lux: W4EF: Time for the reality police to intervene. I think it is clear from my web site that the incident Jason originally complained about is the way in which we kept some of the younger teena
It's interesting that most of the replies to the posted question: said a lot of stuff about how people think it could and/or should be done. K6LL answered the question the way it IS done. Let's assum
I hadn't realized that Cabrillo was falling apart. John's right, it's obvious there are no sunspots. About 60% of this traffic is quite silly. Let's see: 1. People trying to give Cabrillo a bad name
Hi Craig - plenty of hot-shots operate at their own stations - that's a very long list and I'd do a disservice to many if I tried to list them all off the top of my head. Even though all those guys a
Craig, I for one appreciate the time you took to get this written down, OM. I'm not sure what to tell you. Like many things in social life, the contesting echelons are exclusive and cliquish, and th
