Why go through the torture of learning a new radio, figuring out how to get it to work when the 1000MP has years left in it and you can get a used one for just over $1000? Make Tom's mods and/or Inra
YES. A completely automated update process and a completely automated bullet proof without hesitation network installation that requires absolutely ZERO knowledge by the user. Okay, so that last is u
How do you enforce such a distinction? What is to stop me from running for 1/2 hour, S&P for 1/2 hour and still getting 2 pts per Q? I have heard some lulu's here but this one just about takes the ca
Actually, it appears to me he is suggesting that one is legal, and one is not. ERP achieved through antenna gain, done with the consent of your tower/antenna approval authority is legal. 10Kw at the
My Heil Pro-set plus (double sided plus mike) would be very surprised to know that. It operates most nicely with my IC-706MkiiG with the proper end cable. The Proset Plus comes with a headphone plug
Bill: I know and have operated with many of the people in your list and slug is not the term I would use for any of them. Everybody has a right to an opinion on whether we use packet or not but I get

Mike: I had exactly the same thing happening to me two weeks ago and it was all my fault. I had installed two filters to put CQ-contest things into the Cq-contest folder. My mail program executes all
You have got to be kidding right? Why would they tell you how to defeat their filter by telling you exactly how it works? Bob N4HY Could someone please explain precisely how the CQ WW software for de
If they are using time between events as their only measure (surely not), then given the sample size of stations in the contest joined with the fact that a station is on the air to be spotted, the fo
This is truly fantastic. I can't wait to bust Rick's butt (K3OO) the next time I see him about his daughter joining the lids. My 16 year old daughter came up to me two months ago and told me she want
Surely the contest committee has better things to do than look at Joe Blow dropping by for a one-off QSO. It would raise suspicion if you and you alone work P4ABC or KH1/Amelia1Earhart and are in W/K
You can put the signed log/ certified log on the CD-ROM. All they need then is your public key. If I got this wrong, somebody shout at me but I always uploaded SIGNED logs. Bob Ah, that won't work un
Ditto. I am glad to have someone with inside information to share with us. When the first messages started coming, I too did a google search and found the same information and then began to actually
I have seen a few complaints here lately about stations not in US/CA and the certification process. I do not understand the problem. The LOTW site clearly states that you need to send a COPY of your
The only solution is digital signatures assigned to call signs be required to sign in to the clusters, otherwise the cheating that Dave has so clearly demonstrated (why anyone called it hypothetical
Before Don sent out a note earlier this year, I operated as N4HY in RTTY contests and never thought about the problems it might cause others. Since Don's note, I have signed N4HY/2. It cost me before
