BTW: Though my only objection to remoting now is that ...Multi Ops still seem to me to be more fun in person .. The U.S. folks ..especially those not on the East Coast would be amazed by how active t
FWIW Any station running completely unattended is going to have trouble staying on the air for a full contest, especially if they are running High Power. No matter how automated one gets, sometimes,
I'd add FQP to that list as well. Obviously we'll never be competitive in that from Alaska, but they manage to keep It interesting for us on whatever bands are open. I imagine it is quite good from a
Not quite as rare but I'll be on from E51 for CW. 73 Steve KL7SB --Original Message-- From: CQ-Contest [mailto:cq-contest-bounces@contesting.com] On Behalf Of Brian Miller Sent: Friday, September 08,
Hi all: I'll be attending next year since the NPCG/KL7RA group will be sponsoring a table. This will be a first time, so, would appreciate a basic guide to ...when to get there (I know official days
Hey all: One of the things we plan to do @ KL7RA in the near future is set up a dedicated SO2R position. I was about to order computer, monitors etc. for that position when I remembered (I think it w
Oooops, I think I left a couple of things unclear ... We'll be networked since this is a Multi Multi Station by design. The goal on this is to isolate out a specific SO2R position because 1) Ergonomi
Hi Ed: It's a secondary function and testing ground more than anything else. The "mission" of the station is continue Rich's legacy of a competitive Multi Op station in Alaska. The point of the SO2R
I was gonna say, I heard a little bit of everything in this one. Automatic CQ loops with bug exchanges. Slow but perfect straight key exchanges with (by our standards, meaning a CK in this century),
Hey all: I mostly stay out of the rules change discussions here except for the occasional snark, but I have been thinking about this one a bit. I know it has been discussed before but, I am wondering
Hi Dale: That's true, but the bigger issue is, we (on this list) are a small subset of participants, plus best intentions aside, if one is on a big run on another band, it will be hard to break away
FWIW, I enjoy seeing other regional contests discussed here, especially since some of us are willing to travel to do contests we can't do at home. 73 Steve KL7SB Guys, Sorry for stealing bandwidth wi
Hey all: We should probably take this off list, but ..I've gone over this and a number of other items, and it all screams "Hostile Takeover" of a non profit that is *supposed* to serve it's members.

As one of us said during the contest "We haven't had this much fun since that reenactment of the Donner Party. 73 Steve KL7SB My nomination goes to the KL7RA report on ARRL DX SSB: "This one micro-fa
Jeff: Thanks for that info. I've always (well since I've been aware of it, which is only a few years) thought that RU was "ARRL SS RTTY" and wondered why they didn't do the exchange. Didn't realize t
Ria: True you can't decode by ear, but unlike the WSJT/WSJT-X modes, you are (or at least I am) still using my ears to pick out what to work when I'm S&P, and even sometimes when running if I have a
I actually have a nefarious, dastardly scheme to address this. The CWops group is minting a bunch of new cw operators. I know some of the folks on this list do the CWTs and have been hearing higher a
Hi all: One thing is, I imagine it is quite rare for someone to drop out after qualifying. People work for years and invest considerable time, money, and various other resources in order to qualify.
