21. [CQ-Contest] Busted calls (score: 1)
Author: sdelling@facstaff.wisc.edu (Scott Ellington)

The obvious solution to that to make the exchange unpredictable. I know there is a lot of resistance to changing contest rules, but we just don't operate contests like we did before computers. Scott

22. [CQ-Contest] Super-duper-pooper check database function of TR, etc. (score: 1)
Author: sdelling@facstaff.wisc.edu (Scott Ellington)
Date: Fri May 7 13:11:35 1999
I think SCP can reduce the number of broken calls if it is used for verification, not guessing. When a call fails to show up in SCP, I make even more effort to be sure I copied it right. One could us

23. [CQ-Contest] Noise cancelling headphones (score: 1)
Author: sdelling@facstaff.wisc.edu (Scott Ellington)
Date: Mon Dec 13 15:29:12 1999
I've used a commercial set (NRT?), advertised in QST, etc. They are very effect in reducing noise, but there are a couple problems. The audio response seems to have a big peak at very low frequencies

Likewise, if HG1H turned out to be an invalid call, W2XXX would have been penalized, and rightly so. The only way to avoid the penalty at this point is to ask HG1S when the first QSO occurred, thus w

We've beaten this issue to death before, but I'll offer an idea that just occurred to me. There really is a dilemma when you work a dupe, as there could be another bad contact in your log. It would b

The "head-vice" models will. At high frequencies, they work like passive hearing protectors. The active noise cancellation attenuates the low frequencies, where passive attenuation is small. 73, Scot

At least two stations will be subject to NIL penalties in the Stew Perry contest, because they refused to work a "dupe". In each case a previous attempt at a contact was lost in the noise before conf

If working dupes really bothers you, how about this: STN1: (call) STN2: QSO STN1: N (This means not in my log) STN2: 599 04 STN1: 599 14 Now, if STN1 agrees it's a dupe, as often happen, he just send

30. [CQ-Contest] TS-850S CW filters (score: 1)
Author: sdelling@facstaff.wisc.edu (Scott Ellington)
Date: Mon Jan 12 09:37:06 1998
The second CW filter will help a lot, because the shape factor (60/6 dB bandwidth) is much better than that of the first filter. It also allows you to reduce the bandwidth further with the VBT. -- 73

Well, VE2AWR had a good signal on several bands during NAQP, so Serge must have had some antennas. -- 73, Scott K9MA sdelling@facstaff.wisc.edu -- CQ-Contest on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/_cq-con

During ARRL CW, for the first time I followed Trey's suggestion to not send the exchange until the other station sends my call correctly. It works. Because it takes a little longer, though, I tried t

I've made some drawings showing the whole frequency generation and conversion scheme of the FT-1000D, which I'd be glad to share (free). -- 73, Scott K9MA sdelling@facstaff.wisc.edu -- CQ-Contest on

Well, the log checking should for once and all eliminate the temptation to leave in questionable QSO's. Previously, those of us out of top-ten contention might have felt we were only penalizing ourse

Perhaps my recent experience will be useful to others in similar situations: I live in an urban area, surrounded by 4 KV overhead power lines. Last November a very strong noise source appeared to the

I, too, am interested in hearing of contest experience with the rig. Because it lacks narrow crystal filters, relying entirely on the IF DSP, I suspect the dynamic range close in is rather limited. K
