Good Afternoon All: Question regrading rule # 11. in the NA Sprint Rules. "Special QSY Rule" The way I read this, it pretty much eliminates run mode... is this correct or am I reading something in th

Correct. That's what makes the Sprint so much fun and so exasperating. See http://n6tr.jzap.com/sprint.html . Written for CW, but applies to TTY too. Good luck. See you tonight. 73, Hank, W6SX Mammot

-- Hi Curt, You can't just sit on one frequency and run stations. If you call cq, and someone answers you, you have to move after the qso. The guy you just worked gets to inherit the frequency for on

Depends what you mean by "Run mode". If you're taking about the practice of sitting on one frequency and working station after station, then yes. If you're talking about a mode in your logging softwa

Yes, and no. You can't run in the traditional way by sitting on one frequency, but you can alternate between frequencies, CQing for the entire Sprint. One year N5KO won the CW Sprint one year from H

For Sprint, I have two exchange macros. One is when I'm the "CQ station" and it uses all the WriteLog facilities of the stateful Enter key, accelerator keys, etc. The other exchange macro is used wh

While dueling CQ's is fine. I think it is contrary to the intent of the rules. I think you should not be allowed to make same band contacts on the same frequency just because you made one on in betwe

I agree with you, Mike. Infact I asked Ed about SO2R this week - my assumption was that the QSY rule was effective by band, but was surprised to learn that bouncing between two radios without changin

One good reason for doing lots of CQing is that you may not be able to break the pile-ups, especially in the early minutes on a band. Rather than being frustrated, you can find a clear frequency and

Be careful about interpreting what you think the intent of the rules are in any contest. It is seldom cut and dried. In Sprint, whenever you can work the "couplet" by finding a new station to work,

Exactly! It is seldom that you can maintain two "run" frequencies since the person you last worked inherits the frequency. Unless they get no takers, give up and QSY before you get back, the frequen

SO2R IMHO has effectively exploited the rules. A single radio station does not have this capability to circumvent what I believe was the intent of the rules. I don't believe the intent of the contest
