If the SO purists believe that W4** telling me that JY8** is up the band 10 kHz, is assistance, then a multi-multi telling me (even if from a score-board) that it is on 10 meters running Europe is cl
Hi John, Nice to see you again. I am also looking for a room if you happen to find two--we XA's have to stick together!! 73 Saul K2XA _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailin
Actually, in the recent CQ 160 CW test a well known VHFer had a very bad buzz on his signal. I wonder if he really logged the 597 that I sent him and put in my log? K2XA _____________________________

I was doing a single band 20, so I got up at 1000Z Sunday morning to check the band and "find" a frequency to run. On a totally dead band two premier multis were both on 14.150.4 calling cq over each
Bob, Great job putting this whole open log nonsense into perspective--and to rest?? Clearly the paragraph refers to Accrediting DX contacts, and especially DX-peditions . Maybe some hams ought to sti
I can see all kinds of mischief from this--In the good old days it was not unknown for someone stuck in a big packet pile-up at the end of the contest on 20 meters to put out a bogus rare spot to "th
Bob, You know that generally you and I see eye-to-eye on most radio things, but sorry not here. Hypothetical: I am casually operating in a DX contest over a weekend. I have about 20 hours in the seat
Everyone now, Let's see if we all can just ignore Joe's comments and not start another useless thread. Thanks. 73 Saul K2XA _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-
Doug, None of the uniques in my log were removed. Also, I disagree that 99% of uniques are busted calls. That may be true for a qrp contester, but for a high power station with big antennas in a grea
Someone mistakenly interpreted my earlier comment about uniques and high power versus QRP as a knock on the abilities of QRP ops. That was certainly not my intention. This is what I sent him: NO!!!!
I checked my LCRs for every ARRL DX test back to 2003 and never had a unique removed. 73 Saul K2XA _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-Contest@contesting.com ht
Pete, No, you did not lose qsos for your uniques. There is a one qso penalty for each busted call, so you lost 14 qsos for your 7 busted calls. Saul K2XA _____________________________________________
I posted this message on the Amps Site but got no answers. I assume there must be several contesters out there using the 77DX. Thanks for any info. I recently got an Alpha 77DX that was factory refur
What you fail to recognize is that contacts are two way. Even if I report that I am running a remote receiver (and the ARRL said that this will not count for DXCC) the M0xxx running ten watts to a di
