Hi, So just what do you guys do to get the high Q rate? I currently run a vertical, and a KW for equipment, and can not even come close to the rates you are getting... I had 297 Qs in under 15 hours,

ORIGINAL MESSAGE: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Use two radios. Beats a single every time. Having said that however, I only use one. Old fashioned I guess but it's what I like. 73

Interesting comment. I'm a 100W+dipole station (and a dipole at about 5 m at the east end at that!) and while I've called CQ a few times, I always stop because, ta da!, I don't feel busy. I'll try to

Speaking of Don, AA5AU, sometimes I will just stop and listen to him work stations. This time I was listening to him on 40m and a station came back to him that was not really in the contest, but Don

That was (is) very good advice from another seasoned RTTY contester! Let me add to it by saying it can be very intimidating to listen to the wall of RF in the 20m RTTY section during a contest. That

The other thing is to be on the right band at the right time. Don't spend time calling on a dead band, even though there is plenty of room to call CQ. It is tough to find out when to move to the nex

Great advice so far. Good rates come from being on a busy band and CQing from a quiet spot, even if it seems a long way from .090. Trying to edge in to the middle is hard without a big station (or ra

Verticals are ok for 80 and 160m (oh, wait, there's virtually no RTTY on 160m, scratch that). What you need are some decent antennas! A tribander at 50 feet or higher and a rotatable dipole for 40m w
