Subject: Wanted QSO point calculation method for A.VOLTA RTTY contest.
Message-ID: <199605191323.WAA24663 at tpost1.netspace.or.jp>

Hello, everybody.

I am looking for the calculation method of QSO points for A.VOLTA RTTY contest.
The rule on DX reflectors does not tell me how to calculate QSO
point from my ZOME to the distination ZONE.
If anybody knows the rule/method or value, please let me know.
My CQ Zone is 25.
Thank you in advance.

Where are the 6 meter sprint results being collected?  My score
operating as K3RA from the K3MQH site is 131Q 36G.  Had an intermittent
transverter RX for the second half.  Sorry if you called and I didn't
come back! Didn't help the score, I'm sure, as had to take some time
off to get it working at least intermittently.  Nevertheless, great fun,
and thanks to all for the Q's.   - Rol

Message-ID: <1.5.4.32.19960520010730.00673714 at pop3.wt.net>

Help! Who was it out there who suggested using a hammer drill to 
install ground rods? I am getting ready to put in several rods
this week and have a sudden/unexpected interest in this subject. 
The author mentioned the use of a special bit to perform this
operation. Need more details ASAP!! The dig-a-hole-fill-with-
water method didn't seem quite as attractive as this based on
what I remember of the discussion (which I think was here and
not on the DX reflector, but don't remember).

Message-ID: <319F7B4F.4CC9 at cec.comm.se>

Can anyone tell me what age you are supposed to use when you enter
the All Asian contest in the multi-multi class using a club station 
call or you own call?

The rules says the following about the exchange:

6. EXCHANGE:
         (1) For OM stations: RS(T) report plus two figures denoting
             operator's age.
         (2) For YL stations: RS(T) report plus two figures "00 (zero zero)".

Hallo Contesters,

I am looking for a QST article.

Written by Christman, KB8I about Elevated Radial Systems.
It is in the 1988 QST, I think the August or October issue.

If somebody is willing to mail or fax the article to me,
I would be very glad. I can send you the $$ to cover it.

Thanks and 73's,

Either sigle op or Multi op, the operator should sends his 
own age or her "00" for the contest number.
If you have the birthday just in the AA contest, you should 
inclease your Nr(age) during contest. :-)

Gud luck

Hi friends, 

I'll use the callsign HGM3CW in the CQ WPX CW Contest. I will be a Single Op 
on All Band with a "lightweight" High Power. 

HG3CW is the callsign of the Hungarian CW Group (HACWG). It can be used by the 
members upon request. HAM/HGMs  are special prefixes for the 1100th 
anniversary of the Hungarian State.  

Pse QSL to HA1AG. Every card will be answered immediately. 

I hope it arouses your interest... See you all in the contest!
