And in the old days, when it was still the "radiosport" contest, it was 48 hours long, and you could run 6m and 2m in it as well. I got my first introduction to 2 meter tropo running FM in the radios
They wouldn't like my answer either. My first suggestion would be to make sure it said Kenwood on it. 73s John AA5JG (ex: W5TD, NE0P, N0EEN, KA0IFG) Confirmed 6M addict: 6M WAS #1275, 6m VUCC #1260 _
Maybe they could go totally crazy and actually print contest scores! 73s John AA5JG (ex: W5TD, NE0P, N0EEN, KA0IFG) Confirmed 6M addict: 6M WAS #1275, 6m VUCC #1260 heartedly (even if it is just a on
That leads to the next question, then. Based on the ARRL surveys, what area of ham radio is the primary interest of the majority of ARRL members? 73s John AA5JG (ex: W5TD, NE0P, N0EEN, KA0IFG) Confir
I was getting ready to mention that myself. We may be 11% of ARRL membership, but are probably the ones keeping the QST advertisers in business. I wouldnt supposed the profit margin on a 2 meter HT i
Since the planet is "is in so much trouble that we've caused" (supposedly), am I right in assuming that all of these rock starts who are lecturing us didn't take their private planes to the concert,
Does anyone know where W1AW/4 was located for the IARU contest? And is NU1AW always located in CT for the contest? 73s John AA5JG (ex: W5TD, NE0P, N0EEN, KA0IFG) Confirmed 6M addict: 6M WAS #1275, 6m
What is the least populated CQ zone? I am guessing Zone 2, but is that correct? 73s John AA5JG (ex: W5TD, NE0P, N0EEN, KA0IFG) Confirmed 6M addict: 6M WAS #1275, 6m VUCC #1260 _______________________
Zone 29 and Zone 40 aren't pieces of cake either. 73s John AA5JG to 36 probably _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-Contest@contesting.com http://lists.contesti
I think there is VY0PW, and I did work the VF0X DXpedition on 6m, as well as 40m, this summer. 73s John AA5JG consider Labrador, parts of Quebec and Nunavut. Next in line is probably Zone 40, which c

I don't think that Part 97 has any rules about giving your location, as long as you give your proper callsign. 73s John AA5JG _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list C
Unfortunately that is probably what will happen. It was both of their frequencies, and it seems that the west coast station who was already running JAs should keep it since that is where the propagat
Now that Daylight savings time has been extended into November, have the times for the CWSS been changed accordingly? Both of the SS contests used to start at 3pm local and end at 10pm local, but if
My original pondering was whether the ARRL was going to change the UTC rules for the CW SS so it would start at the same time as it always has in the past. I realize that daylight savings time has no
I thinkk KH6 has a nice setup for it. If my thinking about time differences is correct, it would start there at 11am on Saturday and end at 5pm on Sunday. Plenty of time to recover before the monday
That is correct. For years the daylight savings time change took place during CQWW and everything went ok computer loggingwise. It will be nice to have CQWW end at 7pm instead of 6pm for once. Don't
CQWW won't be an hour longer. It will still be 48 hours long. It ends an hour later, but we also don't get the extra hour when 2am sunday went back to being 1am on sunday. 73s John AA5JG ____________
