Subject: More on X5
Hi Dave, thanks for the note. Nice to hear you on this past weekend.
As far as I can tell, the committee has disallowed X5 for QSO, Country,
and Zone credit because they say they are basically unlicensed. They
claim they are nothing more than glorified CB operators.
The stations claim they are licensed by the Republic of Serbs,
an enclave within Bosnia-Herzegovina. My point is only this: there is
no dispute as to where they are operating from, so why not give them
QSO and Zone credit if not Country credit. You could even make them
count for YU without stretching too much.
CQ Magazine has already shown that you don't have to be licensed
to have your card count towards one of their awards. Specifically, I am
referring to 1Z9A (correct call finally) and S21NQ. Neither of these
stations was ever licensed by the government of the host countries.
With this logic already in place, it seems to me that counting X5 is not
hard to allow.
I certainly don't wish to criticize the contest committee because
they do a very good job with a very difficult situation. I am just
curious as to how they determined that X5 is not good for anything.

I found K5ZD's info real interesting, I'm not the only one crazy enough
to do the full 48 hours. My first attempt at dispersing info via this
medium, hope it works. This is in keeping with my philosophy of publishing
claimed scores ASAP after the event.
I'm no tree hugger; however, paper logs are looking more dated all the time!

I was QRP both modes in SS, to let my kids use video equipment upstairs, and

Some notes:
I didn't sleep, except for a few several minute periods when I nodded off
sitting up in the middle of a QSO, especially when I worked HG275BC....
Nice to work ST0K on 15M. Asked him about 20M. He said 18Z on 14000. N2RM
didn't seem to notice me work ST0K on 14000.1 underneath him.
Made only 4 QSOs with the second radio. Made a bad mistake in testing my
setup. Turns out I couldn't vary (or shut off) the CW sidetone on my TS-850
while CQing, making listening to radio #2 useless. Essentially a one radio
contest. The sidetone volume was too high, it almost led me to quit in the
second hour, my ears are still ringing. 79 band changes overall.
S-7 powerline noise on 10M to the south (where all of the activity was) on
both days. On Sunday S-9 rain static for 4 hours during prime daytime hours
during 50 mph rainstorm. 10/15/20M beams useless on receive. Settled on 20M
using my Eu beverage for RX.
On Sunday 15M was too crowded to find a spot without annoying people. Tried
21.120 but people were going too slow and I was impatient. During the entire
contest people were very good about asking if the freq was busy and moving if
it was (hope I was as accomodating).
Couldn't believe 160M on Friday nite. Traditional wisdom is that the
Europeans are working each other so they can't hear USA. I must have worked a
couple of loud ones and then kept the freq open by the small pileup I
developed, and it kept on going and going and going. It would have been
impossible without the Eu beverage.
Station summary:
10M 5L @ 50' 66' 94' not phased, usually used the high one
15M 5L @ 62' 99' " " "
20M 4L @ 92', 5L @ 120' different towers, used the high one
40M 2L @ 80' on Eu, 2L @ 130' not phased, used both
80M Inv V @ 100', 2L delta loop on Eu delta loop not obviously better
160M ground plane w/raised radials
TH6DXX south @ 70' not used
1200' beverage on Eu, three other 600' beverages
(not terminated, no matching transformer, no preamp, no fancy supports)
TS-850, Alpha 86 (and almost never used TS930 w/AL1200)

Yes, I'm with you.
These informations from *Top Guns* very much appreciated.
You will be able to learn something from these breakdowns.
I believe there are several types of contesters on this reflector
HF types, V/UHF, Field Day style or RTTY etc.
Someones' garbege might be another ones' usefullness.
I'm in japan and SS scores are useless for me, but the comment with
breakdowns have lots of contest strategy. So I appreciated anything
related contests.

David meets Goliath...
That is how some of us felt. Could we really do it? A last minute pep talk
from Chuck, K0RF, and 48 hours later we would all know. We had six stations
assembled and ready to go, and 13 operators as well. Band by band, here is
the breakdown.
160 - by G3SZA IC781/Alpha 87A/3 slopers and 3 beverages.
80 - by K0RF/W0UN/N7RT IC765/Alpha 87A/3 el rotary at 150'
40 - by W0CP/K9AY IC781/Alpha 87A/3 el rotary at 150', 2 el fixed at 80'
20 - by N2IC/K0EU/KC0D IC781/Alpha 76/6 over 6 stack, 5 el at 80'
15 - by W0UA & others IC781/Alpha 87A/6 over 6 over 6 stack, 4 el at 60'
10 - by K6XO/W6UQF/K6UA FT1000/Alpha 76/7 over 7 stack, 4 el. fixed at 30'
<< extremely interesting analysis of rf vs tt deleted for b/w >>
If this is a DAVID station, then I am certainly no more than a grain of sand
under David's sandals. At least now I know what the high-water mark is.
I congratulate all you very serious contesters that have assembled such
fine aluminum and copper farms. When I die and go to heaven, maybe my
eternal reward is that I will get to operate a station like one of
these........
cause I sure as heck won't have one in this life!!!!!!

Subject: Program reading CW to log-program - any use?
Message-ID: <199312031807.AA138459 at vipunen.hut.fi>
I have created a little program called CWREADER. It's intended purpose is
to copy CW sent by a keyer to a logging program (for example CT).
Well, I got the program working quite nicely but then I suddenly noticed
I have absolutely no use for it! That's because I'm a 'new generation
contester', who has never worked a contest using just paper and pencil..
So I work much more efficiently using just the keyboard.
The question is: would anybody else have use for such a program? I mean,
are there contesters who prefer to work a contest with their keyer but
are forced to use the computer because of it's other great advantages?
If this is the case, and there is enough interest, I could finish CWREADER
for a 'public release' (write documentation, etc).
An example of CWREADER's operation:
I have just called CQ and a station answers me. I get his call (W1AW) in my
head and start sending with my keyer: "W1AW 599 123". All of this gets copied
to CT's call-field, until the second '9' of 599 is sent. At this point the
"59" is deleted, cursor is moved to the number-field and copying is suspended
until there is a long enough pause. Then the other station sends his exchange,
I write his number in CT's number-field and send "TU" or "TU OH3LIM". After
that the QSO is confirmed and the cursor moved to the next line.
Anybody interested? 73 de Mikko OH3LIM

How do you clean up your keyboard, radio front panels, headphones,
microphones, etc.? For example, when the hired gun tells you he came down

Is good ole Lysol OK? What won't hurt the electronics, but will kill the
bugs?

If anybody has compiled the scores for SSB SS I'd enjoy seeing them,
either by posting here or by direct mail. Thanks and 73.
