[CCF] [TOEC] Q on SAC rules "ENN ###"

[sm6lrr at gmail.com]

Maybe I am also missing a point on the web-page too... Have always (especially after last year) wondered about penalties for not correctly received serialnumbers and call at the side of my counterstations.

About ENN ... - IMHO, this is a primitive innovation for sizzies... and only feasible in contests where u can send in 50 WPM or more without risking penalties.

Let us make a common decision and avoid using ENN ... 5NN TAA (for 599 100) is an accepted and
common abbreviation - while ENN is only confusing to our counterstations.

We often receice soapbox comments that Scandinavians are good ops - lets keep that reputation.

Ämne:[TOEC] Q on SAC rules "ENN ###"


Hello all

   I have been wondering about the strategy concerning my SAC operating.

   Namely, one thing always to consider is your TX speed, and how to abb-
   reviate the numbers, to make communication faster.

   Now, if you do it OH8PF-style (a concept from the 1980s, early 1990s),
   the speed is very fast, extremely fast. This assures high rates.
   This strategy is very good, if you are not sanctioned for errors in
   the other log.

   Now, I expected the rules to say something about the accuracy checking
   and about the way (math) score is reduced by incomplete QSOs. They don't
   seem to. I know that there is SM2EZT's software to check the Qs, but what
   are the (implicit, explicit) logics in it? I.e. the rules on valid QSOs?

   We also have the PU! accuracy trophies. They will be based on relative (%)
   score reduction. How are Qsos, points and multipliers lost in SM2EZTs
   software?

   Or am I just, as usual, missing a point/web-page somewhere?

   BR ilkka, OH1WZ
