    While at Dayton this year I heard some guys talking about operating
    160M on Field Day. Most were saying that 0400z was the time that
    everyone heads for 160. Can anyone verify this time?

    At the WD8E Field Day site we'll have a full size dipole at 90 ft, we
    thought about launching a balloon and vertical wire, but I think the
    dipole would be more practical, any comments on this?

    Please send comments (no flames please) to me direct....

I'm still waiting for a certificate from the 1994 CW WPX contest so
don't hold your breath.

Welcome to the Doom and Gloom reflector.  Lets talk about contesting and
what supports contesting.  I depressed enough already!  Yes, and I am
concerned too, but lets not have a melt down here.  Good strong argument,
planning, consistancy and civility will and can take us a long way.

Come on guys...lets be civil to each other.

Thanks for all the good information.

Picture the scene:
Amateur radio loses 2m and 70cm. All over the world, tens of thousands of
EME and VHF contests enthusiasts are told their thousands of dollars worth
of transceivers, Yagi arrays, 3CX1500s, etc are now worthless, because
big-business LEO operators have "bought" their frequencies. A fair minority
would be tempted to "go out with a bang" and take a potshot or two at the
new LEOs. Perhaps jam them, deafen them with a few pulsed transmissions, try
cracking their telemetry codes, or whatever - it would be crazy to believe
they either wouldn't or couldn't . It would also be VERY difficult to catch
the perpetrators (especially if they were portable). 

On a larger scale, all the millions of handhelds and mobile rigs would wind
up at flea markets and car boot sales (how many of you would smash up your
handies or put them in the trash?), and be snapped up by people with no
knowledge of the havoc they would cause. 

The massive QRM problems must, in reality, put pay to any chance of
"recycling" 2m or 70cms. If our national societies present this very real
scenario (albeit in more diplomatic terms), and highlight the very real law
enforcement problems which governments would face, then I don't think the
LEO threat is one we need lose too much sleep over.

Wait a second! I don't see the possible connection between the loss of an
international agreement that all HF amatuer licenses have "knowledge" of
the International Morse code, (An agreement which has been broken by
several parties, most notably Japan) and loss of CW spectrum.

Last time I looked, CW was usable EVERYWHERE on any amatuer band.

It is OK to be concerned, but let's keep ourselves grounded in reality.

THESE SCORES ARE NOT OFFICIAL!!!   I CANNOT ACCEPT ANY LOGS!!!!!
PLEASE SEND ALL YOUR LOGS TO THE ADDRESS IN CQ MAGAZINE!!

PLEASE READ THIS!! I cannot get your scores if you send them as an 
attached file to your mail. It takes me over 5 minutes just to do one 
score that way. If you do not have the time to type your score into the
text of your email, I do not have the time to post it. I have stated this
every contest for over a year and people keep doing it. Also scores that
are sent in without being added up will not be posted. It is a lot easier
for you to add one score up than for me to do a 100. 

The address for the 3830 reflector is 3830 at akorn.net!! Maybe someone can
post on here how to subscibe to it. I am not sure and do not want to put
out any bad information.

Also as I stated in my post before the contest, I cannot do attached 
files. You need to send it in the form of email. Also please state your
full class on it, not just Single OP. If you do you go into the unlimited
class. 

Please do not send me SSB scores. The Final Posting has been made on that
one.
