I had two instances of one-way propagation during SS. While running on 20, I kept hearing K5RC putting out his call sign right on my frequency, but he never made a QSO, and never replied to my severa

I'm not against a low power Multi-Single category, but I don't think that's going to increase the number of stations to talk to, and that's what the Run stations need - new blood to talk to. We need

With regard to phonetics, use what works. Never use SPAIN (it's spelled Espagne, and you'll get logged as ECHO). And for non-native-English speakers, the use of phonetics familiar to them always outp
