Topband: Answers to ARRL 160 questions

[Tom Homewood]

Here are the answers I got from Dan Henderson at ARRL.

1. How many points are scored for a Maritme Mobile or Aeronautical Mobile
QSO?

5 points, it is a DX QSO.

2. In the Cabrillo output how do you show the section (location) of the MM
or AM station? Is it R1, R2, and R3?

R1, R2 and R3 is the correct way to show the section.

3. Is there a site that shows all the prefixes that belong in a section? Of
interest are KG4 and the Pacific Islands.


Pacific -- Hawaii and U.S. possessions in the Pacific

KG4 is in the Vigin Islands section. Dan thought this was in the bylaws, but
couldn't immediately locate it.

All US possessions are in a Section. KC4 would not be in a section since it
is international territory.

Thanks to all who responded.
