How do repeaters operate legally if the Control op must be located at the Transmitter? Station control via remote means has been allowed at least in the USA for a long long time. Mike W0MU W0MU-1 CC
Per the ARRL Rules in Contests: 3.3.An operator may not use more than one call sign from any given location during the contest period. (I am not sure how the ARRL defines location. My lot? My home st
Thanks for the clarification. What is interesting is that for contests 50mhz and up there is also a restriction on Antennas and receivers. 1.3.A transmitter, receiver, or antenna used to contact one

The webcam was great! I am glad to hear he should fully recover. The webcasts should be the least of his concerns! Please pass along my wishes for a speedy recovery. Mike W0MU W0MU-1 CC Cluster w0mu.
No. It is using a receiver outside the circle. Technology is good but it sure can make things much more complicated! Mike W0MU W0MU-1 CC Cluster w0mu.net:23 or w0mu-1.dnsdynamic.com Http://www.w0mu.c
No. Prediction software is not getting real time feedback like you are with Skimmer. You are using outside assistance to make operating decisions. If you operate in the assisted class then I say have
Cut numbers in the serial number threw me constantly. Maybe the very good ops deal with it but I am geared up for number not letters! Most of the cut numbers are from EU and JA. Most people lost what
Head to the Skimmer reflector or the RBN site. If you can work people then sure the skimmers can pick you up. They are all over the world. If you nestle in against a super power you probably will get
If you want to send enn for the signal report great. Actually I could care less what is sent there. Someday it will probably be e e e. If you send cut numbers to me, you can probably count on a fill.
If we leave it alone, the precedent was set to allow SO the ability to check propagation numbers via WWV. Do those number really mean anything? Obviously the op can check them right up to the contest
I agree. But where do you draw the line if a boy and his radio is SO, which obviously it is not. Obviously the advent of certain aids has been allowed for Single ops and will these aids will continue
So you want to write rules around which radio someone uses. WPX already has Tribander wire class. Should there be a class for antennas with more than 3 elements per band, more than 6 elements per ban
What he is saying is that if I submit a score for W0MU, someone else can send another log overwriting my original submission with some bogus information. You don't have to get a hold of anything. The
Actually the question is how would the ARRL, NCJ or CQ know that AA1AA submitted a 1.1 million score and then I submitted some other log for something less. Nobody needs to get the original log. It w
I think LOTW went a bit far. I don't need to jump through all those hoops to trade stocks or check my bank accounts etc. Most browsers have security built in with encryption. This could be used. I wo
Actually it speak volumes for the financial institutions. I have never lost a dime by using an online solution and find it quite practical and safe. Ham Radio is simply a hobby. Reasonable security i
I agree Ken. If I want to spend the money to build a remote station in J6 or HK or wherever and it is legal it should be allowed. Where the operator sits is of little consequence. The contacts are ma
There are so many other issues in remote operation that I doubt sitting in my USA shack is going to have any effect on my score in a positive way, opposed to sitting in the shack in J6. If I were ons
I think the intent for CQ awards, DXCC rules are that if you go to J6 and operate you cannot count what you worked there for your W0MU awards. I can apply for J6 awards with my J6 contacts. If I remo
