Good points David, The cluster feed to the scoreboard should be unfiltered and optimized to minimize communications latency. Also, if the new station worked is less than x kHz away (let's say 2) it w
It also invites the question: who needs to cheat with packet to work AZ? Oh, and what K1TTT said, too. 73, kelly ve4xt -- Original Message -- From: "Steve London" <n2ic@arrl.net> To: "N7MAL" <N7MAL@C

Has the issue been brought to the attention of rules committee? Without solid proof, the claims made have little value and appear to be a witch hunt, IMHO. The mere act of spotting a station on the c

I'm willing to host submitted logs in an on-line searchable database with the following stipulations: 1) logs will not be viewable until after the log submittal deadline for a contest 2) logs are in
... There are a few individuals collecting logs already for databases. Those databases are free. Maybe also the logs could be free? There will be a variety of these if it is the one collecting logs
Yep - but you know this almost can't be done now. Almost no one tunes the bands looking for DX anymore. You can be DX and call CQ for 5 mins and not get an answer. -- George Fremin III - K5TR geoiii@
Maybe not in a contest, but someone has been doing that on 40 CW for years. I still hear it every once in a while. Someone shows up and starts handing out "5NN" and gets a pileup and no one even know
That's not been my experience. I can start a CQ from PJ2 (not a very rare spot) and have several callers almost immediately, and a good-sized pile in five minutes, any time of the day or night. Then
This is an interesting thread. I'd be in favor of making all logs available publicly after the contest. That would be very educational, and perhaps lead to an overall upgrading of contesting skills,
That is a bit far-fetched. If DARC *allows *packet, then it isn't cheating anymore. That would be like me saying "Since ARRL won't stop dirtbags that use 2 radios, and I'll never afford a 2nd one, I'
I would love to hear that. That is so funny. Can you say "Pavlov"? dale, kg5u _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-Contest@contesting.com http://lists.contestin
I was going to re-thread this as "Where's The Beef?" In case you haven't noticed, all major "sporting" events have real-time coverage. NASCAR/Daytona car drivers have on-board video cameras and are i
Yes, Mike, there is software that will do what you describe. If I use Writelog for sending spots but not receiving, then I just close the telnet window and bandmap. That way, I send out spots but do
Should we encourage the DX to self spot so they would get the pile up? Or do we say self spotting expedition QSOs are no good for DXCC? I believe the OF community will vote for the latter. Younger ha
Hi Craig There are very many of us who are clear that packet is not just a technological 'advancement', it is fundamentally not single-operator because you have a whole host of packet users all find
