Ron K0IDT, Your team ran a good operation NE. No issues at all but for some reason (I may be in an antenna null) I cannot work the W1AW/0 (SD) station on 17 meter RTTY. No problem on other bands and
Thanks for the comments from all. If it was easy, we would not do it. W1AW/0 (SD) on 17 meter RTTY has been hard for me and may be easy for others. I gave up when the Pactor robot took over his trans
Here's a pileup management technique you should consider. It doesn't matter whether you have a CW, SSB, or RTTY pileup calling. YOU are the one who sets the cadence. That is your goal (managing the p
thr problem is, the calling statsion DO NOT cooperate.....even when they have a full call, like WZ1ABC and they send it at the beginning and the end of the excahnge, someone like AB6XYZ will keep cal
Yup, that can be a problem. Bully operators. I haven't experienced that myself (just how many KŲ's are going to generate a huge pile up?), but I did listen to a SSB pile up a while back. There was an

I had never worked a massive pileup from the "dark side" before this operation either. Learning under fire will either make or break you, I did learn a lot of tricks that will be handy when chasing D
Finally got W1AW/0 (SD) on 18 MHz RTTY in the log. What a difference a day makes. W1AW/0 (SD) was up at 18.105 on 19-May and I got him after about 3 calls - worked UP 3. Something tells me he had the
I found him listening up to about 18.109.5 He was working lots of JAs when I was chasing him. I finally found a clear spot and he found me. Modest station here on 17, 100 watts and a delta loop. Good
