Every year as we all grow older, less and less of us will operate 48 hrs straight. Geez, in a matter of time the "only" guy who enters as 48 hrs will win !! Just have a 24 hr category and a 48 hr one
Absolutely Jeff, I agree , do not touch the present 48 hour AB category. Just add a AB 24 category within the 48 hours. Glenn VA3DX all all - mistake won't be willing to COKE - (HI) -- The world's to
IMHO it would be best to allow any (total of 24 hrs of operation ) within the existing 48 hr period. I myself cannot operate 24 straight as the obligations of careing for my surviving parent means I
I will/can never be competetive to the point of winning in a 48 hr test. I am not a ( 48 hr ) competetive contester Some of the younger contesters just cant comprehend the effects of being in your 5

Geez, I operate CW and RTTY; then SSB; in that order BECUZ its more fun for me. Others may like SSB or PSK, since they enjoy that, I never really gave any thought as to whether I was wasteing brain c
According to Ohio-Penn bulletin number 722 ...... a group of guys are going to Barbados for the CQ WW SSB contest in October. It states that W3ADX has the call 8P9DX.... If anyone knows W3ADX please
It is a great contest as it is.... just leave it alone ... Glenn VA3DX Yeah, what's up with that? Why doesn't it have the same rules as the CQWW CW and Phone? Because its not cqww cw or phone? ______

Under the same circumstances, I would have moved up or down a KHZ. I would not be so stubborn as to try to prove a point. I remember the morning well, and remember thinking that it must be a bootlegg
