OK so this weekend was the CQMM DX Contest. A gentle affair run by the CWJF, a Brazilian CW group. No pressure, no big prizes. So here I am calling CQ MM. I get 4 or 5 callers, all jammed on top of e

You have to be ROCK SOLID in your resolve not to work the others with completely dissimilar calls. In a semi-recent International contest where VE9 (NB) was a mult, I had a very small pileup.(typical
Pete's example is certainly terrible, and I have no problem with not working any of the unsought callers in that case. It's worth mentioning, however, that not all pileup situations are so unambiguo

N1MM Logger Plus already has a CW reader. See https://n1mmwp.hamdocs.com/manual-windows/cw-reader-window/ Most modern radios also have a CW reader built in. Jeff I have run into ops using voice recog
Yes, this can be annoying. Especially when there are two or more callers about the same frequency and signal strength. These days, it seems there are many people working CW who don't really copy it t
