How much simpler could NAQP be? 100 watts and no multi-multi machines to contend with. I broke into the top 10 last year with a single OB16 at 80 feet one one tower and a C3E on second tower at 60 fe
Just want to confirm though that if you sent an email log, it is still considered as properly submitted. Correct? Or do you want to extend the deadline for the submission of logs to the website? 73 R
Just like the N5 that was jamming me on 14.227 on Saturday - saying I was too close to the SSTV frequency. He demanded my callsign so that he could write a letter to the FCC, and then I asked his cal

Oh, I'm sorry. If somebody intentionally and maliciously interferes with my ongoing QSOs on what had been an open frequency - 3+ Kc away from the "usual" SSTV frequency - am I supposed to say "Thank
This is all fine, but let us please eliminate the 10,000 plus categories that we seem to be coming up with in contests. WPX: TB Wires, Single Op, Low Power, 40 meters, assisted. YUCK! Too many catego
