Subject: CW filters for contesting, a summary
Message-ID: <v01510100ade0e5879c72@[131.183.100.82]>
In my original message I asked for comments on the wisdom of installing 250
Hz filters or perhaps purchasing 400 Hz IRC filters for CW contesting, as
opposed to continuing with the 500 Hz filters that I already have. Though
this request dealt specifically with the Kenwood TS-850S, the responses
received are applicable to any rig. The key word, obviously, is contesting,
and the special requirements it creates.
First, I should like to thank the many colleagues who replied. The free
flow of information and the willingness to share it on this reflector has
always fascinated and impressed me. The consensus is that (1) the most
important filtering is what goes on in the gray matter between the
earphones; (2) the two principal forms of contesting--run stations or
search and pounce--demand that one look at the question of filtering
signals in a different way; (3) a single 250 Hz filter is probably too
narrow and two cascaded together are almost certainly so, and (4) there are
several alternatives to that very tight 250 Hz filter that would be "nice
to have" from time to time.
More than one respondent observed that the danger to narrowing the IF
filters to anything beyond 500 Hz is one of becoming, as Tree, N6TR, put it
"too sharp." Contrary to what may be conventional wisdom about filtering,
you can be too narrow and consequently "will start missing people calling
off frequency" (N6TR), will have to "be very careful to tune the RIT slowly
and widely +/- 200 Hz after a cq to pick up the off-frequency" (K6LL). K3RA
("looong time op at W3LPL") observed: "Independent of the mfg., I have
found that 250 HZ filters are too narrow for contesting. I replaced the
pair of 250 Hz filters with 500 Hz filters." Even when tuning for other
stations, Rol says that "the 250 Hz jobs just cause you to tune by the
stations too fast." Rol's final words fairly well sum up the consensus on
250 Hz filters for contesting: "Tune the DX with 500, then switch to 250 on
the rare occasion the narrower bandwidth is needed. But the 250's are a
PAIN [his emphasis, not mine] in the you know what for contesting!"
Several respondents suggested that you really want to hear MORE not LESS
during a contest. KR2Q put it this way: "250's are too narrow for
CONTESTING unless you want to hold a run frequency near the bottom of the
band on 80 meters. Sure, you hear other 'crap' with the 500's, but that
'crap' includes stations you WANT to work." Doug also points out that the
things going on outside the "walls" of the filters can include other
important information beside the stations who may be calling you: "I like
to be able to hear more; if not other stations calling me, or for me to
call, at least to be able to hear what else is 'happening' around the
frequency. With narrow filters, you can think you have a great frequency
to play on, but in reality, your signal may be covered up by someone else
very close by."
K0RC, citing lessons learned from K0FVF (Jim Dokmo, SK), discouraged the
use of 250 Hz filters and suggested instead opening up the pass band: "he
[K0FVF] suggested that I open the filters up to 2.5 KHz and back off on the
RF gain. Then listen for stations calling you. I was amazed at how far
off frequency some of the station were that were calling Jim. With my
filters 'cranked up', I never heard them!"
Lee, K0WA, and AL, GM4BAP, both consider the IRC 400 Hz filters quite
adequate for contesting. Al used the recent IARU Region CW Field Day as a
testing period and found "the IRC 400Hz units offer a 'perfect compromise'
for contesting. They are narrow enough to give excellent rejection even on
a crowed 7Mhz, yet aren't too narrow that they can't be used whilst tuning
the band for S&P." However there appears to be an additional
task--especially challenging for fumble-fingered people like me--involved
in installing these units: you have to cut and solder leads in the 850.
The most frequently suggested alternative was a DSP unit for those times
when 500 Hz doesn't seem to be quite enough, though K0RC also passed on the
suggestion--one that I've used before but that seems to escape me at key
moments like contests--of backing off the RF gain control as another type
of simple "filtration."
Finally, if you will allow the obvious, contesting requires lots of
practice. So, how does an operator get/keep the gray matter going outside
of the major contests? Bob's (K0RC) suggestion is practice with PED: "...I
have been practicing with the PED cw contest simulator program. I set the
filters to 6 KHz and sit back to listen. I am able to put the rate meter
into the 300's quite often. But this required me to reverse my thinking on
how to run stations during a CW contest. It has been hard for me to switch
my style of operating, but with the lesson I learned first hand, I know the
results I can achieve!"
I, too, have had to "reverse my thinking." As can be seen from my original
question, I considered narrower filters to keep signals OUT. The correct
thinking is the opposite: use as wide a set of filters that you can process
through your brain in order to let as many signals IN, and get a maximum
amount of information about what is going on AROUND you. I have two 500 HZ
filters and a Timewave 59+. What I need is not more filters, just lots more
practice.

Message-ID: <m0uSz7c-0006joC@dewey.mindlink.net>
Trey has outlined the most of the reasons for the WPX to go back
the 30 Hour format better than I could.
I know it has been talked about up here and the general consensus was
it would have been better to leave the contest length for SO at 30 Hours.
1)Strategy being the main reason, KEEP this contest different.
2)because of #1 it helps to equalize the Geographic advantaged of some
contest stations.
3) I also liked the original only 5 off times allowed.
A small aside how many remember that the WPX contest was started as
a method to encourage the use of SSB to help show SSB as better
mode than AM.
Anyway my 2 cents worth such as it is.

Subject: Optimal noise floor
Message-ID: <199606100907.AA05324@gatekeeper.research.natpower.co.uk>
An article in NewScientist magazine (1 June 96) caught my eye ...
in a nutshell, researchers have discovered that superimposing a
small amount of noise on a pure signal can INCREASE the ability of
human subjects to copy very weak signals, whether visual or audio.
The article implies that the phenomenon, called "stochastic
resonance" (stochastic because the noise is random, resonance
because the noise blips seem to resonate with the desired signal),
is not well understood but there are some scientific findings which
seem to support it. The noise seems to bring the real signal just
above the minimal level of perception.
So, a question for CONTESTers using DSP: do you actually find that
weak-signal copy improved or worsened if the white-noise is
removed?? OK OK I've heard the arguments about DSP 'reducing
fatigue', and of course it's wonderful at removing tuner-uppers,
SSTV etc., but what really happens on a clear channel [some hope!]
with weak and watery signals [like mine!!]?
Comments please.

+--------------------------+ CW : 10 Aug 0000 UTC - 11 Aug 2400 UTC
| European DX Contest 1996 | SSB: 14 Sep 0000 UTC - 15 Sep 2400 UTC
+--------------------------+ RTTY: 9 Nov 0000 UTC - 10 Nov 2400 UTC
For more detailed information please write to WAEDC Committee, Box 1126,
D-74370 Sersheim, Germany (SAE/IRC).
This is the 42nd annual contest sponsored by the DARC. The activity will
be between European countries and the rest of the world (except RTTY
where everybody works everybody).
Bands:
------
3.5 - 7 - 14 - 21- 28MHz. Minimum operating time on a band is 15minutes.
A quick band change is allowed to work new multipliers.
Classes:
--------
(A) Single operator, all bands.
(B) Multi-operator, single transmitter. Only one signal may be on the air
at any given time except when new mutipliers are worked on other
bands. It is not allowed to transmit or receive QTCs parallel to QSO-
traffic.
(C) SWL.
DX packet cluster spotting is allowed in all classes.
Only 36 hours of operating time out of the 48-hour contest period are
permitted for single operator stations. The 12-hour off timemay be taken
in one, but not more than 3 periods any time during the contest and must
be indicated in the log. Off time must be at least 1 hour.
Exchange: RS(T) plus QSO number starting with 001.
---------
Points:
-------
One point per QSO. If QTC traffic (see there) is made, one point for each
complete QTC.
QTC Traffic:
------------
Additional point credit may be earned by making use of the QTC traffic
feature. A QTC is a report of a confirmed QSO that took place earlier in
the contest.A QTC can only be sent by a non-European station back to a Eu-
ropean station. (But only once and not to the station reported in the QTC.)
The general idea is that after a number of Europeans have been worked by
a DX station, a list of these QSOs can be reported back during a QSO with
another European station.
A QTC contains the time, call and QSO number of the station being reported
(i.e. 1234 DF0AA 031, which means that DF0AA has been worked at 1234 UTC
and gave serial number 031).
DX: A maximum of 10 QTCs to a EU station is allowed.
EU: You can receive a maximum of 10 QTCs from a DX station.
Your log must show on which band the QTCs were sent (outside EU) or recei-
ved (EU).
(Exception RTTY, which allows transmitting and receiving of QTCs, but not
between the same continent. The sum of QTCs sent and received between two
stations must not exceed 10.)
A station can be worked several times to complete the number of 10 QTCs.QTCs
are sent in series. 3/7 indicates that this is the third series of QTCs and
7 QTCs are being reported.
Multiplier:
-----------
The multiplier for Europeans is determined by the number of DXCC countries
outside Europe worked on each band. The multiplier for non-Europeans is de-
termnined by the number of European countries worked on each band (see WAE
country list). In the RTTY part themultiplier is determined by the number of
countries worked on the WAE/DXCC country lists.
Bonus Multiplier: Multiply your multiplier on 80 meters by 4, on 40 meters
by 3, and on 20/15/10 meters by 2.
Final score:
------------
Total QSO points plus total QTC points times the sum total multiplier from
all bands. (i.e.:(200 QSOs+100 QTCs)*80 multiplier points= 24000 final score)
SWL:
----
Only single operator, all band class may be used. The same callsign, European
or non-European, may be counted only once per band. The log must contain both
callsigns of a QSO and at least one of the control numbers. Each callsign
counts one point, each complete QTC one point (only a maximum of ten QTCs per
station). You can count up to two QSO points and two multipliers in one QSO.
The multiplier is determined by the DXCC and WAE country lists.
Club competition:
-----------------
Club members must operate within a 500km diameter and the club is required to
be a local club, not a national organization. To be listed, three entries
from a club are requested and the club's score is determined by its member
scores in the CW, SSB and RTTY part of the WAEDC. A special trophy will be
awarded by the DARC to the winning clubs from Europe and Non-Europe.
