Tad, Not sire of the exact mileage, but I'll try and give you some pointers for the grids close to you. Most of the Texoma operators seem to live in DM91, EM00, EM01, EM02, EM04, EM10, EM11, EM12, EM
NL7CO/R is planning on taking 432 (75w x 37ele) to Dumas, Texas (DM85, DM86, DM95, DM96) on Saturday morning. Depending on how things go, may go home through EM06 and EM16. Primary goal is to work ho
Someone whose opinion is just as valid as everyone else's. How do you guys do it over there? Do you have rovers in your contests? Don, NL7CO/EM04 But who am I......... Jos on4kj -- Original Message -
To the assembled multitude of folks smarter than me (which in this case is everyone): The EM04 gang is going to try a limited multi-op next June from the farm with 50, 144, 220, and 432. And since no
Bob, You are exactly right on both counts. We want to learn more about what's out there and get started on it as soon as possible to keep down on the gotcha's. I just ordered TR Log from their websit
Anyone have a suggestion on where to send an FT-736 with the Mutek boards for repair? The 6m, 220, and 432 sides all work fine, but the 2m side does not send or receive. According to an SWR meter, th

Now that we've seen what the new web-based contesting scores will look like (http://www.arrl.org/members-only/contests/scores.html?con_id=1), how do people feel about switching now? Personally, I'll
There will be a 220 station running 250 watts to an M2 220-7WL at 60' operating from EM04uo this weekend. Some of the times will be spotty because we will also have several non-HF technicians over wo
As I prepared to write my monthly article for the local ham club newsletter - or more accurately trying to think up something to write about - I was looking for inspiration on my bookshelves. This le
John Petersen, KM5ES, the president of SideWinders on Two (SWOT) announces that SWOT will recognize with plaques the top 2m scores (Single Operator High Power, Single Operator Low Power, Rover, and M
So far we have received 1 QRP, 3 Rover, and 15 SOLP logs. That's right, no SOHP or Multi scores have been furnished yet. And Brad - you are not the lowest score submitted, there are at least two lowe
BRAVO!!! We are going to have several "non-contesters" playing because it is simple and fun. Don, NL7CO/EM04 --Original Message-- From: vhfcontesting-admin@contesting.com [mailto:vhfcontesting-admin@
I'm looking at cutting down on some of the clutter in my shack and looking at possibly replacing my MFJ DVK with one that fits inside the computer. Since I am basically clueless on which ones are out
And to do that, you need to work "them" with what they have. When I'm running 222 during a contest, I keep a 736 on 222.1 SSB and a TM-3550 on 223.5 to make sure that I don't miss anyone. Don, NL7CO/
One for the guru's. I am finally getting around to building up the VHF/UHF stack on the tower and have some questions about building the frame for the antennas. Intellectually, I know that I want to
Anyone know a good FT-736 mechanic? Mine has the Mutek boards in it and is fine on 2m and 220 (the module right under the 2m board) but the problem is with the 70cm and 6m module. I get good transmit
This weekend I had a rather new problem with some of the locals and am looking for some advice on how to rectify the issue(s). Situation: There are six active VHF contesters here in Lawton, OK and we
