I'm a pretty casual contester, with the one exception being SS. If such contests exist, I don't know of them. To my knowledge, none of my Q's have been disallowed because of no log. beep beep de Han

Is there any rule that says serial numbers have to start at 001, or that you can't "jump" a few hundred during the contest? (Probably will be now, if there isn't already!) I've sometimes thought tha
Because you do not know whether that person will submit a log or not. If he submits a log and you have the exchange wrong, you lose. You just can't make up an exchange and fill your log in with it. I

I can't think of anyone more worthy! When it comes to stew perry, and any other cw contest where I don't have a guest op, I am a casual contester. I was not entering the sp test, nor would I even se
Barry, What is silly is making an issue out of it, and not recognizing that in our contest parlance, and certainly in this specific discussion, the term "packet" is used to reference *all* digital sp
I have finally figured out how we can handle all this: You look on K1TTT's analysis to find out who the Casual Contesters were who used Packet/Telnet (Gasp!) who did not submit logs and THOUGHT they

I'll sponsor the plaque for this category next year. "Lowest score by a station not competing in a contest who doesn't submit a log" 73, Blake N4GI -- avast! Antivirus: Outbound message clean. Virus
Just for the record, when I made my comments earlier about non-entrants doing whatever they wanted in a contest, I was referring to activities which could not be construed as disruptive to the rest o
I always thought it'd be humorous to submit a CQWW score with 18 QSOs, 6 country multipliers, and 18 zone multipliers for a net score of Zero. Actually, if you were up in Canada, you could do 24 Qs,
One year during the Pa QSO Party, back in the Jurassic era... er, circa 1980... a couple of us at the Penn State club station ran K3CR multi/multi. One station dedicated SSB, one CW. We probably woul
IIRC a Spanish operator did just that in the early 1980s. (well, he didn't have 18 Qs & mults but he did submit a zero-point log, presumably with all QSOs with other EAs...) -- Doug Smith W9WI Pleasa
No rules that I know of, Hans. Mutli-transmitter stations often start with different serial numbers. Typically the first station takes 001 to 999, and the second one takes 1000-1999, etc. With the ad
Just be aware that Sprint *does* specify that. (both that you start at 1 and that numbers be sequential) -- Doug Smith W9WI Pleasant View (Nashville), TN EM66 http://www.w9wi.com ____________________
Being a thousand numbers ahead a half hour into the contest is too far to be believable and rattle your competition... Go into past years and see what your peers did as far a Q's compared to you and
interesting findings Steve! You can look at the 2004 UBN file lists and from SSB part OE4A, S57M and HA8FW are in the list, maybe W5PR did not send log? In CW part 3V8BB, T99W and SN2N are in the lis
SS clearly says the exchange consists of a consecutive serial number, but unlike some contests, does not specify where it must begin. But if you're not entering the contest, you don't have to follow
Who cares what serial number the other guy reports? If a station I work gives me serial number 1125 fifteen minutes into the test my concern is "did I copy it correctly?" How's my rate? Did I get his
