1. Apples (in your homeland). You have problems with location, antenna restrictions, you travel across the country and stay away from your beloved station for too long, etc. In order to find a soluti

For whatever reason some people still want to see a Q code message while there is a well established RST report system. Now: 1. If there is a new (NEW, unfamiliar yet) Q-code message, who would prope

In fact, you did start a debate... 1. Nobody (OK, most of people) sends leading zeroes as full "zeroes", but a short T, instead. In your example, 017 would sound like T17. There is a significant diff

Barry, Concerning the LoTW part. W2UP and W2UP/0 are different call-signs. If you go for W2UP/0, definitely there will not be any LoTW match if you upload your QSOs as W2UP. 1. Provided, you are a Lo

There is a difference. A station transmitting on 2 frequencies of the same band emits RF of twice the bandwidth allowed by the FCC and the likes, while the one working split does not. 73, Vlad VE3IAE
