So anyone that gets spotted is assisted? Many stations get posted much more than everyone else. Random luck or assistance? ND, MT, SD, PAC, VI, VY1 are all spotted quite a bit. So all those stations
Many contests have Single Op ASSISTED. If they do not have that class then you will fall into the Multi category. _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-Contest@co
On our trips to V47 land during the contest we would log the time at the top and bottom of the log sheet. 50 contacts....about 10 minutes a page if things were rocking. Yep 300 an hour. Sometimes we
There is a fairly good sized group that lives off databases. I have operated from Montana and Colorado using W0MU and MT and CO do not sound anything alike on either mode yet looking at the UBN repor
You can when the contest sponsor says it is ok. Which there have been public announcements made for a number of years now. I guess they will get around to changing the rules when they feel it is nece

Hey what about left handed, slightly deaf op's over 40...Slightly deaf over 40 probably accounts for 90 percent of us...Ok...left handed, non heated shack.... ________________________________________
Bill, If it was so easy to do everyone would be doing it and mastering it. Sorry to say that for most it is not that easy to do and if you do not have the station to put out a big signal on the 2nd r
With most wireless accessories you have to sync them up. You could have some issues if using the same devices in multiple instances especially if the distances are close. I don't recall being able to
My question to CQ is why beat around the bush? Why not make the ubn report public? Why not detail the infractions and let the entire community in on what a few seem to be in the loop about. The stati
