Is there a generally accepted way to calculate operating time during a contest? I was thinking of linking it to keyboard activity, but wanted to ask before going off in that direction if some other w

Simply, if you are receiving (listening) or transmitting, you are operating. Many contests specifically include "listening" as operating time. For example, the ARRL 10 Meter Contest: "2.2. Listening

I would think the only fair way to time activity would be if a QSO is logged (running) or the transceiver frequency has changed (tuning). I suppose this could be done. Dick -- Visit "The Barnstormers

If you're trying to write software that will automatically determine whether the operator is taking an offtime or not, I think you're going to find you don't have enough input to determine it reliabl

Incidentally, if you log a qso at 2100, and you want to take a 30 minute break, you cannot log another qso until 2131. Each clock minute is either an "on" minute or an "off" minute, no halfsies. In t

It's interesting that most of the replies to the posted question: said a lot of stuff about how people think it could and/or should be done. K6LL answered the question the way it IS done. Let's assum

Thanks to Bob, Charles, John, Dick, Doug and Dave for their insights. This seems to be another one of those "squishy" factors to contests that is begging for a more universal definition or applicatio

To add to the 'squishy' factor, what if I am doing a single band entry. Can I chase DX on other bands during my time off? Likewise, can I connect to the dx cluster to chase the non-entry bands DX and
