[CQ-Contest] Origin of 3830 Score Reporting

[Bob Epstein K8IA]

My first contest was in 1957, but I had no real need to listen to the big gun 3830 reports then. I recall 3830 khz use after contests in the mid-late 1960s, east coast/midwest USA. Which means it probably began well before that.Bob K8IAArizona Outlaws Contest Club

Personally, my history of score reporting only goes back to the advent of the 3830 e-mail reflector on contesting.com in 1996, so I'm not familiar with on-air reporting before that.What's the origin of sharing claimed scores and "war stories" on 3830 kHz after a contest? When did it start? Who started it? Thanks.73 de Bruce, WA7BNM   (bhorn at hornucopia.com)_______________________________________________CQ-Contest mailing listCQ-Contest at contesting.comhttp://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/cq-contest
