[SECC] Some Ideas About Operating CQ WPX

Yes, it’s in the Config menu.  Check:  “QSYing Wipes the Call & Spots QSO in Bandmap (S&P)”

Thanks John, Good info as usual.

 

For S&P folks using N1MM. CTRL-U increments the received serial number by one. If you put in the number and don't get through on the next call, hit CTRL-U and try again. 

 

Also, forget where, but there is an option in N1MM that if you have a call in the entry window and tune off frequency it will spot it on your band map. That is an easier way to keep track of who you didn't work as you tune up and down the band. You can use the CTRL keys to jump to the unworked stations on your band map that way. For the unassisted folks -- since you found the station and put them in your band map doing that doesn't put you in the assisted category.That feature is NOT the same as spot all calls -- you don't want to put everything out on the cluster.

 

I will be using WJ4X for this one. Give a holler if you hear me.
