Hi Bill, Not to contest (good choice of words) your opinion but as a clarification.... (1) Sweeps is a 24 hour contest (2) The are many US only contests now, so it is not unique to exclude DX (3) RTT

I understand that Sweeps is a 24 hour contest. But it still chews up the weekend. Realistically, another major contest can not coexist in the same 'basic' timeframe as sweeps. I really don't see the

I guess that I will answer your well considered points in order.... A 4:00pm (ET) start does not necessarily mess up a weekend. If it does, it is only by our choice to participate. Obviously to compe

yes Sweeps has those components, but I don't feel they will fare well in rtty. Especially if the intent is to include low power, antenna challenged participation. I had trouble printing some high pow

Actually CW and Phone SS is a 30 hour contest, of which you're allowed a maximum of 24. So there is a lot of strategy involved in deciding break time if you're going for the gold. I think the biggest

30 hours. You can only operate 24 hours. SS has some unique rules. You work stations once, which tends to make it harder even for big guns to just sit an call CQ all weekend. There are a limited numb

All this talk wishing there was a North American RTTY contest that low power stations could be competitive in, and not one mention of the NAQP RTTY? Is everyone suffering from amnesia? 73, Rich VE3IA

NAQP and SS are very different. NAQP is much shorter, and has a multiplier-passing strategy. SS is more rate-oriented, with a limited number of multipliers and a rule that says you work stations once
