If you are not a single-op, SO2R competitor, you can probably delete this message... The current CQWW rules regarding recording of the contest by top competitors states: "Any single operator entrant
Steve, My opinion is that whatever we say to the Triumvirate nothing will affect them on their decision! As they did so with the DQed stations in CQ WW SSB 2016! They stick to their decision and peri

Maybe Im missing something here. If the CQWW committee needed to hear my transmitted signal, they had access to full-band, SDR recordings made by independent, third parties. So they can hear half of
I would think that broadband SDR recordings from multiple places around the world ought to provide enough data to enforce many of the harder-to-enforce rules. It would seem an operator-provided recor
Great question, Ken. Was wondering myself... Yuri VE3DZ Maybe Im missing something here. If the CQWW committee needed to hear my transmitted signal, they had access to full-band, SDR recordings made
It might be helpful if, when considering changing the rule, the rule-makers considered what it is that they're trying to accomplish with the recordings. The current rule states that a recording must
I never heard my TX audio when doing SO2R, but I think they want to hear in the audio file, what I am transmitting, easy to understand 73, Jorge Enviado desde mi iPhone ______________________________
As Steve indicates, most of us doing SO2R do not listen to our transmitted audio since that is exactly when we are listening the second radio. So I am not recording my transmitted audio much of the t
"as heard by the operator" are the key words. If you don't have the sideline on, you don't hear it on CW. You think they want you to set up a microphone to record everything you say during contest? S
Like Ed, I am not sure how I would even accomplish this. Like most of you, I split my (stereo) headphone audio and record both channels. Easy Peasy! I do not record my transmit audio as I don't liste

If your sidetone is turned off, as was the case when I operated SO2R, there's nothing heard by the operator during transmit. Barry, OK1/W2UP "must record the transmitted and received audio as heard b

By no means whatsoever do I now or ever condone cheating. My concern is that is the zeal to catch cheaters, I have to wonder if the cure is worse than the disease? If you chase out the honest folks w

The SDR recordings are good for knowing what happened over the air. The station recordings help to know what the operator was actually doing. For example, a station tuning through the band and workin
