Two stories from my chair time at K8AZ in the ARRL CW test this weekend. 1. I can't say there is any connection, but early Sunday on 15 meters I heard a weak but copyable OE4A CQing away. Several cal
You mean 5H7/N3BNA ? I'm sure Dale gave several welcome multipliers to many cluster addicts. He travelled damn fast between continents all over the week end ! Is UBN a Ukrainian callsign ? 73 Jacque
How about using the call EE5E on cw. At first I thought it was someone playing with the dit paddle before I realized it was actually someone calling me. Doug/VA5DX And nothing much to do with packet,
I normally don't have anything against packet/cluster spots in a contest. If the rules allow it who am I to complain, but I discovered a new reason to dislike it during this contest. I operated this
Heehee - EE5E was a real callsign. I got a list of expected operations before the contest and that one was on the list. We talked about it before the contest started and it turned out to be one of th
As far as I remember OE4A got hit with packet cheating in the CQWW a couple years ago. I guess your "Hmmmmm" might very well be justified. _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest m

Hey David and all, company policy here at this station is if I don't hear an ID by their third contact, then ? is sent, then longer ur call, then what is your call, etc for each next contact that no

I'm really cornfused. I worked ES5E on 40CW. I asked him to repeat his call several times and almost every time he sent it it was ES5E. I don't use packet during the contest but just queried it a min
Reminds me of that old ARRL cartoon, "Love them dits!!" If he planned it for a lot of discussion and spotting, it worked! Jon Hamlet, W4ZW Casey Key Island, Florida "A little piece of paradise in th
There is an upside that I hesitate to mention. I can't tell you how many times I have heard a screaming pileup that appeared to be packet generated and then found a much more desirable station 5-10 u

Mal, are you sure you don't confuse it with SE5E? 73 Yuri VE3DZ call spot _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-Contest@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com
yes John, but that have nothing to do with working K8AZ on 15m in ARRL CW! i work him on 4 bands (incl. 15m) i work 556 qso´s on 15m and 2323 qso´s on all bands in about 27 hours! the ban
Accusations are most probably unfounded as OE4A must have been Multi Op I am sure. After years of blatant cheating SO results from him would have zero credibility anyway so does not make much sense t
Well, Mal - I guess you'll just have to wait until the LCR reports come out or after you send a QSL to ES5E to find out for sure. As a courtesy to the station owner (EA5RS), I will be sending out QSL
Some things I thought were more noticeable maybe more on the low bands: Some one would show up on a new multiplier and tune for a few minutes... Some would even start CQing on top of the existing sta
Tonno, how cann you be sure that OE4A was Multi Op? you cann call it as you wish! every one who want´s to check OE4A credibility is most willkommen. even we will be happy to have finaly one (ho
Hah! Thanks Doug for "the rest of the story" (with apologies to Paul Harvey... good day). You certainly brought me up short the first time I heard EE5E this weekend -- frankly, stopped me cold for a
