Hello all, I've been following this thread and waiting someone who is a dedicated JA contester might respond, which didn't happen, so I dare to write! Please remember I am a newbie in contesting ;) R

Hello, I've been trying to find a good explanation for the decline in JA activity that many have noted. I've gathered some interesting data but I'm still not satisfied that I have the answer. Here's

I lived in Seattle briefly in 1978, and had the good fortune to operate at K7RI, K7SS, and VE7WJ. I was amazed at how easy it was to generate a monstrous pileup of JAs (although using "K1UA/7" may ha

I think this is exactly the problem. Young technically minded people have a natural tendency to be competitive and a yearning to part of what they perceive to be the future. When I started college i

I've wondered if it might be that amateur radio provides a unique opportunity to practice speaking English with native speakers of various dialects, a highly valuable skill in today's world. In Europ
