Envious of the K1TTT webcam and especially the score updates, The Barnstormers Contest Group has begun the project of adding this feature to our own website. The link to the picture can be found on w
I agree Dave. As you know I had hoped we could have done something with your station, k1RX, and KB1H last year but it didn't happen. Maybe the Instant Messenger idea will be good for now but I think
For those fine friends that give us QSOs in all the contests and have sent us QSLs, all the received QSLs for KB1H and NZ1U have been answered. It is our policy to try and begin the new contest seaso
Hello to my German friends - I will be in Germany from 22 August until 27 August. 22 August until 24 August in Remchingen which I believe in between Frankfurt and Stuttgart. Sunday, 22 August, I will
Does anyone know where to find a QSO rate program that can massage the Cabrillio log? More details than just what you see on the logging screen. We are using CT here. Thanks Dick -- Visit "The Barnst
The idea on a new category for SO2R has really reached the limit on "watering" down the competition to the point that there is no competition! Can we have categories decided by the amount of sleep yo
I agree with Dave. I have been running a node since 1987 and if I had to shut it down for contests I would not run the thing. Dick - KB1H -- -- Visit "The Barnstormers Contest Group - NZ1U" website h

I can only echo most comments sent so far plus: though we use FT-1000D, FT1000MPs here, we always use a TS-850 in one of the operating spots. The 850 is an excellent contest rig and much more simple
With so many nodes out there why doesn't some of the users at K1TTT pick other nodes? Why deal with a delay of spots, etc.? My node for one usually has 5-10 users and three are me! Other nodes have e

It is not unusual for me to look at my log during offtime to see what multipliers I have missed and prepare a checklist for the following night of lowband dxing or even next day higher bands. Thus ke
The KB1H node took a lightning hit and was off the air for about 5 days. Actually all the internet equipment and networking was damaged. Cable modem, router, two switches, and three network cards so
Hi All - In the past you have been able to telnet into the KB1H node using the Microsoft Default port 23. Recently Metrocast has purchased the local cable company and it is Metrocast policy to block
HI All - Quite sometime ago I made the necessary changes to allow ports 23 and 25 access to the DXSpider node at KB1H. Just connecting to dxc.kb1h.com worked. I had users whose ISP or firewall did no
Dave - I went through about 5 designs (failures) before we arrived at a design that has been up here for probably 8-10 years. I should take some pictures but anyway... The full size 1/4 wave is made
I confess, I was one of those and probably the station Rick mentions. What little operating I have done so far this weekend on 80M I for one have found the rate to be better operating the "old" way.
We finally did the work and have uploaded a total of 182,262 QSOs- both KB1H and NZ1U. Of that total about 175,000 are KB1H. N1XS warned me that the total would be large and W1TJL did the work for me
