- In terms of the check, yes, it can be hard at times to remember what year it was or to know which operators year to use, but does it bother anyone else when some people on this reflector mention that

- No, Ron, that isnt the point. The point is to send a 2-digit number which stands in for the 2-digit CK in the standard ARRL message header. Since it is variable message-to-message (not predictable fr

- On the subject of the appropriateness of sending something other than the correct year-first-licensed as a check during SS, allow me to play devil's advocate. Isn't a signal report part of the requir

- But the RS in the RST is completely subjective. What is S9-extremely strong signals-compared to? I choose to compare them all to the signal being sent back to Earth by Pioneer 10. 73 John AF5CC _____

- Disagree. Just because they don't (actually can't) check doesn't mean that you don't have to send the proper number in that slot. If not, why does it say in the rules that it is the date you were fir

- Apples and Oranges. Signal report is subjective. Year licensed is a fact, not subject to judgement. However, you have brought up an important point of contesting. Speed is important to a good score,
