I heard the same thing from a few long time players with pretty big scores. I will admit to having my macro set up wrong to start but fixed it not long in. 1st SS CW in a long time. A warning for non
What I typed was not at all what I had intended HI! Thanks Mark for pointing this out. The running station should/could use his call at the end as the tu instead of tu. In SS I used tu W0MU because i
I saw this with a VI station. I have to wonder if they are running on another band and just trying to keep their 2nd radio frequency open in case they want to use it. Mike W0MU J6M CQ WW DX CW Contes
I don't think they were bogus spots. The Skimmers will find you if you make one cq and qsy. People might have left because they were unable to run, too much qrm etc. Why would the assisted and Multi
Why no penalty this year? This is not something new. Mike W0MU J6M CQ WW DX CW Contest 2011 J6/W0MU November 21 - December 1 2011 W0MU-1 CC Cluster w0mu.net __________________________________________
Busted calls and mis-copied calls are not the problem of the skimmers or the sysops. Do you realize how many busted non skimmer spots there are on a daily basis? If you use the spotting network, it i
Wait................ So a Multi/Single can break the rules and have their contacts removed yet the other station gets to keep the contact even though the station they worked violated the rules? So wh
What is Multi Single? A bunch of hams using ONE radio and taking turns. At least that what it is to most people. It has now devolved into 10 guys sitting around a bunch of radios now all running stat
and the rules say the multiplier station shall only work new multipliers...................... What is the difference. It is ok to break one rule but not the other? Mike W0MU J6M CQ WW DX CW Contest
There is nothing in a radio contest exchange that is really important. SS has a long history and it is great that it continues. Some people like to run at 300 an hour and SS is one of those contest w
Simply follow the rules and don't work non mults. Why is this a problem? I have to wonder what is really going on that the Mult station cannot determine of the guy they want to work is a multiplier o
Joe, The ARRL and the Contest Manager in WRITING has declared that they do not care what two numbers you use as long as you use that the entire contest. Sorry if this defeats someones database so the
I can understand this if used on a very limited basis to correct an honest mistake. What Doug wrote opens the door to the other station just working every one they hear and then marking out all the n
I get it... Optionally They could either wait for them to work a station or they could simply ask the station what zone he was in. If you don't know what the speed limit is you don't go 100 mph do yo
It has been an eye opening experience from J6. We have been hounded with most all of the the previous people have spoken about. Apparently 599 8 now means TU or should I say enn 8. I guess we don't n
Times change. There is no going back on technology. Personally I love it. I was just running RTTY on 10m with a howling EU pileup and had 24 receive channels open. It allowed me to work stations much
N1NK was announced at the QSL manager for J6M but W0MU will now be handling those duties. We apologize for the last minute change. -- Mike W0MU J6M CQ WW DX CW Contest 2011 J6/W0MU November 21 - Dece
It is very difficult if not impossible to correct this behavior on CW where a great number of ops are not conversationally competent in CW let alone the issues with language. It is also almost imposs
I picked up the Yamaha CM500 headset and found it very comfortable over very long stretches of time and it is light and the mic is ok if you can equalize it. They can be bought for around $50 bucks.
What the station sends does not determine the zone he is in. So If I sent zone 9 from J6M what zone would the stations that worked me get credit for. The object is to work the zones and countries. Yo
