I just tried CT again under dosemu. Does anyone know why Alt-H brings up a totally blank help screen? Maybe it can't find a file, but there's no error message, just a blank red area on the right. The

Those are good cores indeed. You might try just stacking a second #31 core next to the existing one. 73, Mike www.w0btu.com _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_t

Does anyone use tlf for Linux? I finally settled on tlf and have it up and running in contest mode, thanks to help from Pat, N8VW. Tlf seems to work great for logging and dupe checking, but doesn't s

I had ice here in SW MO, but not that bad. One wire on one 2-wire Beverage broke (at a weak spot), and the Inverted-L wires got stretched, but that's apparently all. Still have to fix it. 73, Mike ww

Tom, I believe the mode that operates at 1873-1838 is JT65, and WSJT is needed to decode it. I never tried it. It was developed by K1JT for weak-signal and EME work. http://www.physics.princeton.edu/

You are right. There is no universal software that can do that. But I used to code software, and I'm convinced that the status quo in amateur digital software can be greatly improved. See http://www.

As utterly simple as it is to shift a VFO, it's almost hard to believe that any major manufacturer would do it with audio. When I was heavily into HF RTTY software development years ago, it was a tri

Absolutely! From what I see from my QTH in SW MO, 1845 would be a good place for JT65 to move to. There is a ragchew group that meets on 1850, but seldom is there much activity below that. I seldom l
