I don't know, Jim. That sort of sets a bad precedent. Out here in California, we sometimes get good openings to Southern Africa in the early evening during the summer. In fact its been my experience

It depends on the operator. Most of the time I have heard them they are sending their call every couple of QSOs. There was one guy on 30 who wasn't sending his call at all, but I think he might have

I just sent the US Pilot N1DG an email asking if he could talk the team into doing 40 SSB on Saturday night instead of 40 CW: http://www.peterone.com/pilots.htm#n1dg I also asked him to encourage the

Does anyone have a current email address for Tom, N9NC? The address on QRZ.com didn't work. I understand that he may be living in the U.K. now. Thanks, Mike W4EF......... ____________________________

Jeff is correct, Mal. The switches on the front panel of the MKV let you select pre-programmed pairs of cascaded 2nd and 3rd IF filters. If for instance you have the MK V setup with a pair of 2nd and

I wouldn't call it crucial, but it can come in handy. When I was running WPX CW over the weekend, I found that running cascaded 250's in my Omni 6+ was at times over constrained (easy to miss callers

I agree, Scott. It would be interesting to test the MKV in a similar environment with some ferrites wrapped around the power supply cables. I'll have to run that test sometime. BTW, when we took the

That thought crossed my mind more than once during the WPX CW contest. The problem is that everyone seems to have tight filters, so keeping a run frequency clear enough for picking out weak ones with

Personally I prefer to be disappointed in my score after the contest is over rather than during it. Therefore I will probably not make use of real time scoreboards when become available :):) 73, Mike

It is useful, however, to indicate in the spot that the DX station is listening split at least generically. Example VE2ABC 10109.4 HC8N QSX UP 0311 21 Nov 2006 this should in principle decrease the l

I agree, Roger. I wasn't in the contest, but I did hand out some 160 QSOs near the end of the NAQP. I made it a point not to call anyone who was CQing below 1840 KHz. 73 Mike W4EF.................. S

That's an extremely good point, Mark, which I hadn't really considered. Your spot on that it would allow you to CQ and listen on the same band with zero "self QRM". If you imposed the rule that you h

There are two possibilities, Tom. The woodpecker was pretty frequency agile as I recall, so it didn't necessarily stay in the same band very long. It could be that people sending the dits just assume

Yes, you're probably right, Peter. The absolute signal level hitting the receiver might be on par with the backscatter from a real target, but the large bandwidth difference would allow for filtering
