I have been sworn by these lids for operating on 14302 KHz. They deserve nothing but contempt. -- From: "Shore Marine" <shore1@xplornet.com> Sent: Wednesday, December 02, 2009 4:31 PM To: "Richard Di
At least 95% of EF8DM's QSOs were worth 3 points, compared to V47NT in which perhaps 40 %of his QSOs were with NA and only worth two points. V47NT (N2NT) decided to operate from a location he does no
Dave, If CQWW decided to create a new contest based upon distance, would the next step be to handicap those who are in a location that has better propagation then others ( P4 verus OH)? Does this bec
After reading all the comments, especially the one by HA5PP, I finally got it that this has been nothing but a joke. If the new scoring requirement is based on distance between contacts , what happen
Working USA lids just encourages them to continue polluting other stations logs who they then call. Nothing discourages bad operating then nobody every coming back to your call. Just ignore- easy, po
In 2008 as 6W1RY in CQWW Phone I was penalized and lost a multiple = because I was not in the log of the infamous D4C operation that was = later disqualified. They got disqualified, but I was penaliz
Feeding So to one nationality by spotting is not a reflection upon the operators of WRTC and they should not be penalized. When you hear a friend on during a contest and you want to help him by spott

How do you have 300 QSO rate per hour? Just do not ID. If you do, the rate goes down. Must be why I have such lousy rate (6W1RY, TO5A,NH7A). If Mr. Bozo wants to send his call every three minutes bec
Most hams are gracious enough to try and lend a helping hand and give out multipliers , if possible. I have asked stations in the past to QSY and make up to four band changes. More then 90% of them t
A sponsor can make up the rules for a contest. I am not forced to participate. Any contest that mandates I have to be hooked up to the Internet to play Amateur Radio, well, I will go do something con
Whenever I hear EF8M, I make it a point not to work him. That is his reward for QRO. That solves my issue with him. Boycott cheaters. The committee of CQWW cannot on itās own catch QRO violators. In
I want to make sure I am in the log correctly and only if I am in doubt, I send my call. With the penalty rate of losing three QSOs for a busted call, if the other station does not have your call cor
Yes, the entire operation of T2V should not count as anything. You cannot send an incorrect zone and expect it to be valid. Otherwise, for the next contest we should all send zone 34 in our exchange
Often in CQWW someone gives a report that is clearly in error. For example,, if KL7XXX gives a report of 599002, that in my mind indicates the operator does not know the rules of CQWW. I tell KL7XXX
Bob, I got one better- how about EEEE for a report? Why do you bother with zone 4 when the argument is that the robot determines your zone anyway? 73, Albert I have contest logs from the '60s where R
So according to the rules , remote QSOs are good for CQ, but not for ARRL DX credit. How is a person supposed to know who is remote or not for DXCC purposes? How is the League going to know if a stat
So, remote control is the same as just being there. Well, I propose to hire the guy that set up all the bank servers on Nauru (C21) to put up a ham station and hook it up to the Internet. Instead of
Is there the perception that operating from a doggy place where if you forget to use bottle water to brush your teeth can cause disease is equivalent to operating from the comforts of your own home?
Bob probably meant to get across the concept that one should not listen up 5 as expeditions do so. If the pileup is really getting out of hand, then up 1 should be enough as long as those calling do
