==========================>
Alkalinity from the older concrete leaches out into the yard.

You do not notice this at first. It takes a while for the leaching to have 
an adverse affect on the surrounding plants that might need a more acid 
soil condition.

Apply acidifier to the surrounding soil.
Same thing happens down here in the Southern USA to azaleas planted too 
close to concrete foundations of houses.

The list is free to be surprised at this being one of my few sincere posts 
with a content of substance.
File away if you wish to preserve same.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Heil boom mic set problem
Message-ID: <006301c2091e$441fd180$70ab45cf@default>

I have a problem with the Pro micro boom mic set.  The button on the mic
swivel went bad and the mic would not stay in place.  Bob Heil sent me a new
button but upon trying to put it on I found the problem was the tube inside
the button.  It had broken off from the button.  I don't see a way to get
inside headset to fix this as Heil recommended.  I showed the pro micro to
two others who have either Heil Pro or pro micros.  We tried removing the
cushion but the headset is one piece and the cushion appears to be glued on.
We tried to get into the headset from the back where the button is attached
but all of us were afraid to damage the Pro Micro.

Does anyone have experience on repairing either the Pro or Pro micro.
Otherwise the other two recommended sending it all back to Heil.

I'm by far no expert on the history of all this, but my impression is that
the assumption is made that contesters are prone to exaggerate their logs.
In the past with paper logs this was very difficult to find.  When it is
found, the QSO itself and a penalty is extracted.  Yet, situations such as
yours definitely exist where the victim/perp are reversed and the penalties
are not.

Now that most (all for CQ?) logs are submitted electronically, I think it's
high time to eliminate the penalty points entirely.  Just remove the QSO
(and mult if it be one) and recompute the score.  Guys in your situation
will still bemoan why the other guy didn't log you, but at least all you're
losing is the QSO and not having a penalty lumped on.  Anyone trying to
benefit by padding the log will of course have their work totally removed.
Seems fair to me.

I think the time for the penalty points, appropriate when finding fraud was
so difficult when paper logs were the norm, to be totally removed.  Let the
score reduction be computed solely on the basis of the submitted log, less
QSOs in error.

One man's opinion, of course :-)

Gary W2CS

There are two ways to solve the 0 point QSO problem:
1. Automatically give zone and country credit for all 0 pt QSOs. For 
example, USA gets credit for USA and zones 3,4 and 5; UA0 gets credit 
for UA9/0 and zones 17, 18, and 19; DL gets credit for DL and zone 14; 
etc.
2. If a N-I-L pattern appears, for example, W3multi was in the log of 15 
other W ops, but 12 of those QSOs aren't in W3multi's log, he should 
be DQed.

If you have a problem with a Heil product, I'd suggest calling Heil to
discuss it. While their obviously in business to make money, they are very
customer oriented. About a year ago the mike on my "legacy" headset became
intermittent. My guess was that it was in the cord. Dave returned my call,
told me that was a fairly common problem and the fix was quite easy. His
prediction was correct and fix was easy to complete.

Has anyone tried the Heil FS-2 footswitch in contesting? It looks like
it might be easier to key than many of the other footswitches that I
have seen but I'm wondering what other contesters think. All comments
would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone on this list have a trashed Heil Proset headset available
that they would consider selling me? I'm looking for a working mic/boom
from a Proset to put onto another (non-Heil) set of headphones but I
don't feel like spending $130 plus shipping to buy a new headset just
for the mic/boom. If someone reading this has a trashed Proset that has
a working mic/boom and cord please e-mail me if you'de consider parting
with it. Thanks!

world...now they are shrinking in world wide POPs etc and not available in
a lot of countries I travel to...one member of this list had reccommended
GRIC as a world provider...I had to purchase GRIC services thru a company
called VPM and they were horrible...no custome support etc...but GRIC did
have the most worldwide access points....anybody that travels have any
other luck with ATT Worldnet or any other ISP...Compuserve since it was

Please let me know if you lost any QSOs from K8CC.  For the past several 
years I've reminded our operators before the contest that if they send 
someone an exchange, they are to log it, period.  Hurting the points per 
QSO ratio is not an issue.

I don't know how CQ checks logs, but with ARRL 160 and ARRL 10 (which K9TM 
and I check) the penalties are equivalent QSOs - i.e., if you have a five 
point NIL in ARRL 160, you lose that QSO plus five QSO points.  OTOH, in 
some contests like ARRL DX and SS all QSO points are the same, but the 
strategy is the same.

Before this spirals out of control any further, please note that WW3S
indicated that he made an error in his math while looking at his report.

There were no USA multi-multi's who did not log him nor caused him to lose
any points or multipliers.

I use "AT&T Global Network" to access my company through a virtual private 
network.  In countries that AT&T serves, there are typically dozens or even 
hundreds of local dial-in numbers; sometimes an 800-equivalent number. There 
are hundreds of numbers in the US plus an 800 number. My company must pay extra 
when I use the 800 and equivalent numbers. The dialer includes a self-updating 
list of numbers for each country and US state; i.e., it is always close to 
up-to-date. Unfortunatley, the numbers are listed alphabetically by city, so 
the larger the country or state, the more geography you must know or learn in 
order to find the best number quickly. Hotel desks are very helpful with this. 
The service works well, with speeds varying from about 24000 to 54000 in the 
venues I have tried (mainly
US and Europe). N.B. I use an IBM ThinkPad T20 with a rather good built-in 
modem.  In some Caribbean islands AT&T is not represented and the best I can do 
is call Florida. I don't know if this is the same AT&T service that is 
available to individuals.

Actually they already count as you suggest. That is why the original
poster worked the multi to begin with, to get USA and the zone on a
particular band. Example, at NY4A, we need one "K" station and zones
3,4,5 on each band for mults, even though they don't count as Q
points.

There is no loss to logging 0 point qso's. I'm really quite mystified
that anyone would drop them who is using any of the computer loggers.

In order to get a same country exchange to go out at all so that the
posting station would hear an exchange, the easiest way for the multi
to do that is type in the call and hit enter. All done. Deleting the Q
from the log takes additional work. Logging the Q is BY FAR the
easiest, fastest thing for the multi to do. "W1WXYZ <ENTER> 5
<ENTER>".  Everything else takes more time.

I suspect that someone may have done something like go through the
multi log afterward and deleted everything that had zero qso points
and wasn't a mult, not quite realizing what was happening.

Except that does zilch one way or another for the score. Pts/Q is just
an analysis tool. In something like the WPX may indicate someone spent
too much time with beams aimed at USA gathering 1 pointers, instead of
a slower (but higher scoring) progress working European stations.

But it has no official status in any contest that I know of. Anyone
who would suggest such a strategy (deleting zero pointers) clearly
does not understand contest scoring rules.

This already looks unfair (comparing, say, the free mults a DL gets versus
the ones a US station gets) but multiply it by all the bands involved and it
get much worse.

A see a huge potential for mischief here...  Perhaps a note should be sent
to the "W3multi" alerting him of the trouble, but nothing more.

QUACK's
Good thinking today with computer logging , however when we were papering
logging I'm sure that many guys didn't put in a W7 into their log when they
already had a W6 zone 3 and a couple of VE7's,  TOO much effort to write
them down and also dupe.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Heil FS-2 Footswitch
Message-ID: <20020603.002007.-1392873.1.n6ki@juno.com>

Nat, 

        I guess you missed the previous thread on footswitches
when someone else inquired an alternative to the Heil FS-2

"
        I just replaced a very comfortable, durable and ergonomically
comfortable
footswith that lasted me over 10+  years of contesting.
        After considering many switches including the Heil FS-2,
here's one you should consider and why I chose it.
 
Linemaster  Model Gem-V2
www.linemaster.com
 
860 974-1000
 
Circular - Easy to hit from all angles
 
Perfect touch - you can lightly rest your foot on edge of it
                           and not false trigger but then a light
additional amount of additional pressure
                           keys it and no "cramped" or "tired" foot as
the hours wane on
 
Great Weight and Non Skid corrugated base  - Will not move around too
easily
so no worry about it not staying in position.
 
Nice appearance with chrome ringed edge and easy hit circular top target
area.
 
I expect it will easily last 10+ years for heavy contest use.
 
You can purchase with or without cable. I found the supplied cable listed
on teh web
page to be too heavy and cumbersome so I installed my own thinner and
very flexible
cable and saved another $6 on the price.
 
The Gem-V2 will cost you just under $30 including shipping/handling.
 
Note: Since they normally have a $100 minimum, I requested my switch
as a sample for 60 day evaluation and had it mailed to me at my work
address.
That way you avoid the $100 minimum 
 
You may also want to check with your contest buddies or club members and 
order enough to meet the $100 minimum order. 
 
I have no pecuniary interest in Linemaster  Co. Products"
 
73, Dennis N6KI

Message-ID: <000d01c20af3$a8a1c560$8600a8c0@yumaaz.adelphia.net>

Staples has the Envision Model EN-710e 17" Monitor
on sale, through June 15, for $149.98, less a $70
mail-in rebate, for a final price of $79.98 plus
tax. You can get it at your local Staples store,
or at Staples.com with free shipping.

I've had one of these for about six months now,
and it is one of the cleanest monitors that I've
seen. On one or two occasions, I've detected a
birdie from it, but it was a weak narrowband
sinusoid, and didn't create any problem. I just
bought another one.

of friends for use in the WPX contests.  They operate single-op at their 
own station, but they just use someone else's (more desirable) callsign 
(with the other party's permission, of course.)  

     I wonder how other contesters feel about this practice?

The OFFICIAL answer re WPX club score participation  was that WPX rules are
the same as CQ Worldwide contest and percentages are allowed.

I read the WPX rules the same way, however one of our club members ran into
Steve Boll, N5BJQ, at Dayton, and posted this comment on the club
reflector:

************************************************************************
I hooked up with N8BJQ at Dayton and asked about the team scoring for WPX.
He sez if the station owner is a member, then the multi op score can count
for the club.  Doesn't matter how many ops are members.  FYI.
************************************************************************

If this is uncertain, we should ask Steve for a clarification.

I do not recall it being the effort of logging them nor 
was it the trouble of duping them - afterall ten contacts 
with a ZERO point station counts the same as one contact.

The problem was it made it very hard to figure out 
your average points per QSO.

The first time I showed up at a CQ WW M/M I was told not to 
log more than a few W stations.

Now in the age of computer logging I log everything - I log W/VE stations
even in the ARRL DX contests.

There have been several notes recently about the Dayton cw pileup results on 
the  to the Kansas City DX Club web page.  If you look elsewhere on their 
page you will find the sound files for the 1998 and 1999 pileup tests along 
with the answer sheets.  I ran the files and  confirmed what I had know for 
some time, I suck as a potential world class cw op.  There are some features 
of the sound files that play into my weaknesses.  The selective filters in my 
head will sync on a certain tone frequency. Once I have copied the call at 
that tone I try to mentally lock onto another caller at another tone, doesnt 
work, the original preferred tone distracts me.  If the sound file came 
complete with a rit I would do much better.  On the first listen I could not 
copy more than 38 callsigns from either file.  The list of scores for these 
years is also available on the web site and its a lot of fun to compare and 
find out just how bad or good you really are.  In my case it was good to 
dissolve the illusion.  

The potential fun is limited by the fact that the only files listed are those 
from 98 and 99.  Maybe the KCDXC can locate the sound files from previous 
years and provide us with some additional fun.  If you have never been to 
Dayton or have never participated in the pileup test, this may tell you to 
either avoid the embarrassment, practice more, or to make a reservation now 
for next year.  Log onto the KCDXC web site and have a run at it, beats 
sitting around waiting for the next contest.

Message-ID: <OFA85F541A.96FAF405-ON85256BCE.005889EA@cam.abtassoc.com>

At Saturday's meeting of the Yankee Clipper Contest Club, Dan N1ND made a
lively and informative presentation on developments at the ARRL Contest
Branch.  Many of these have to do with contest coverage and are already
familiar to readers of CQ-Contest.

One change that was new to me is a shorter deadline for submitting logs for
ARRL contests --- instead of 30 days after the contest, it would be 15 days
after the contest.  (As I recall, Dan said that this would apply to the
2002 November Sweepstakes and later contests.  From later information,
however, it is not clear to me whether the change has been adopted or is
merely under consideration.)  Members of the audience had a number of
comments, bringing out pros and cons.  The discussion revealed the need for
flexibility (e.g., someone may enter the ARRL DX Contest as a DXpedition
during the course of a longer trip and not be able to send in the log
within the 15 days), and Dan indicated that he could handle such special
situations.

I'm curious to know what the broader contesting community sees as the
practical implications of such a change.

I feel there is no question there are better calls to be used in this
contest...if you have a rarer prefix, especially now that W can work W, you
might get waited upon (run em) whereas if you are the third or 10th K4 that
someone has worked spin the know takes over!

It is precisely for this reason that we used WC4E in our Multi-Multi effort
in CW WPX from W1CW/W1YL/K4OJ station....

Jeff (WC4E) has a callsign which is almost synonymous with the WPX
contest...I know when I had pileups calling me there were many guys seeing
new prefix on their monitors and were willing to wait!

Contesting is a competitive sport...if you have found a better shaped sail
in sail boating you go with it...or a better tire in auto racing you go with
that.....

Do I have a problem with a fellow ham loaning his "unique prefix" callsign
to another ham in his quest for greater contest success...not in the least -
what are friends for?

We could have been K4NNN or K4FCG or any of the other calls licensed at
W1CW/W1YL/K4OJ in WPX CW but there is absolutely no question in my mind that
by having Jeff's call we did better - his being there to operate was a big
help, too - nice job on 15, Jeff!

Seems like a really nice "hammy" thing to do - at least to me...provided of
course it is a free choice - I would not condone anyone holding a gun to
someone's head in order to use their call during a contest...even if it were
a hired gun!

This is a fraternity, right - a good place to do fraternal kinda stuff, eh?

Hi Ron,
I am a member of the KCDXC and will say tnx to everyone who enjoys the
pileup competition. Now for the good news...Last nite at our monthly meeting
we discussed making cd's of the sound files (including this years)along with
the answersheets and making them available. Once the final info is ready,
either I or Bill K0VBU will let you guys know.

Needing to calculate (or wanting to maximize) points-per-QSO is obviously
unnecessary today.

I don't need to tell most of you that the problem back in the good ol' days
was that in order to report the score immediately after the contest, one
needed to guesstimate the points-per-QSO.  I recall hearing, "Using last
year's...",  oh so many times on 3830.  So any deviation from the norm (IOW,
too many zero-pointers) was perceived as a hidden, after-3830,
score-reducer.  And since relatively few (compared to today) logs were
checked, it was of no consequence - although it should have been.

Computer logging has been the norm for well over ten years.  Points-per-QSO
is calculated on the fly.  No need to guess or maximize.  Old habits die
hard I suppose.

I like the Heil footswitch.  And on the well-beaten-down subject of
headphones, as I have stated before, the ONLY headphone I will ever use
again is the FOSTEX T-20.  Cost about $80.  I wear them without any
discomfort for 48 hours straight.  Simply epoxy a Heil boom mike with HC-4
element (naturally) to the side.

Following my lead, the FOSTEX used one time or another by world class
operators like W6YA, CT1BOH, and OH2BH.

Now that I have revealed Contesting Secret No. 2, (1) the competition just
got a little tougher, and/or (2) many more of you will be operating,
comfortably, for many more hours, and we will all enjoy your presence, and
obvious skills.

Hoping to see many of you in Finland.

Quacks
Thats how I did it,  I had the permission of the owner of WR7HE to use his
call for the WPX   ssb/cw and did so.  I'm responsiable for answering the
QSL's.  and operating within the rules.

Yeah, and its probably not too different than going on a DXpedition for a
contest, and "borrowing" not only their call, but also their station.  And
if it adds to your score, interest in the contest, and is an all-in-all
stimulus for activity, and FUN, so what?  Isn't that what contesting is
supposed to be all about?

The point is:  ANYONE can do it.  Just like SO2R.  If you don't wish to play
the game, your choice.  But don't condemn others from trying to find an
advantage.

It's just one more element of why it's a "competition".  Duh.........

K4VX has done this for years. His wife is NS0Z and they usually use her call
in WPX from his station, which most of the time is manned by guest ops. As
long as permission has been given, I don't see a problem with it, even
though in this particular case it makes my own call sign less desirable!

Hear, hear!!!

I agree.

This was my first Dayton convention.

I would have loved to have particpated/competed had I realized that the
hospitality suite I was in (down the hall from the banquet room by the
elevators) was not THE hospitality suite where the real activities were
going on (is that where the door prizes were handed out, too?).

Oh, well...next year....

==========================>
A hot glue gun will work as an adhesive quite nicely, as well.

A hot glue gun will also serve well to seal the end of plugs where it might 
be a concern for connections being strained by an inadvertent pull or tug 
on the wire(s).

Another tip is to use W2IHY audio setting # 8,723 while wearing loose boxer 
shorts for ragchews and tight briefs for pileup busting.

This is an excellent idea.  A week would not be too short, in my opinion,
especially given Dan's flexibility for special occasions.

I think what Dan is seeing is that most e-mail logs arrive within a day or
two of the end of a contest.  IF
all contest entries were e-mail logs then there would be no problem.
However, since ARRL must accept hand logs (as do most contests) this will
only work if logs are accepted with postmarks of the date 15 days out.
Same for diskettes received.

For Dx contests I am sure ARRL receives logs up to 3 or 4 months after the
contest as overseas mail (even some airmail) takes this long.

Its not a perfect world and there are reasons why even 30 days is too short
(PC disk problems, logging program problems, business trips etc)    The
question is whether Dan will accept exceptions.
Lets hope he will.

Considering that there's a ton of people that still refuse to give you
a dupe contact and send QSO B4 instead, when QSO B4 is clearly a loser
for BOTH stations, more so for the one *sending* QSO B4, I'd guess
that only once every twenty years does the average ham set down and
read the rules for any possible improvements to modus operandi.

Among those who work the boards for corporate tech support, there is
this snippet often heard when the mic's are cut off.

RTFM

It's amazing what even college educated engineers will fail to read
and comprehend. Stuff of legends.

73, Guy.

I find that if I submit a log 29 days after the contest, it is probably 
because I have forgotten about it since about day 3.

It would be nice to have some automated service for which one could sign up, 
that would look at a sample of early arriving logs, and if it detects your 
call as having been on the air but shows no log received from you, would send 
out an e-mail message asking/reminding you to send in your log. This might 
happen 10-15 days after the contest.

Something like this has been done for the sprints, I suspect with some human 
intervention.

I don't think one should expect to receive an exception.
Exception means rare, and is subject to discretion, which
could change in the future.  

Furthermore, there are legitimate reasons for longer periods
to submit a log.  For example, the month of November is
especially busy - an op has just finished a grueling 48 hours
in the CQWW fone contest at the end of October, and now
hits: SSCW, SSFone, CQWW CW, and for stateside guys, Thanksgiving
holiday with attendent family pressures.  Keeping in mind the
Amateur's Code from the ARRL handbooks, ham radio is a hobby -
and is secondary to one's primary obligations to family, job,
etc. Thus, it may be difficult to find time to submit the log,
especially if one is trying to think up witty comments for
the soapbox writeup.

What compelling reason is served by reducing the time frame
for log submission?

OK, so they're going to cut the deadline in half, from 30 days to 15 days.

Does this mean the RESULTS will be computed and printed twice as fast?  I doubt
it.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Borrowed callsigns
In-Reply-To: <20020604094126.B19751@cs.utexas.edu>

Well Kenneth, back when I was first licensed (Federal Radio Com., not FCC), 
the callsign was firmly associated with the radio equipment and 
location.  I guess by popular demand in the amateur service anyway, the 
callsign  association transitioned to the operator.  Now, the callsign has 
become a commodity that can be used by any qualified operator with the 
owners permission.  This progression can be considered a form of 
progress.   73   Jim  w3cp

I'm sure all the anti-log-sanitizing nazis will be happy, but the
programmers might not be. Now they have but a few days to fix any
Cabrillo-generation bugs that might not be discovered until late. (I know, I
know, they are ALL supermen and there are never any bugs.)

Also, this would put the deadline for several large contests right on top of
other large contests (ARRL DX phone occurs 2 wks after ARRL DX CW; SS phone
is two wks after SS CW).  Currently, I don't have to worry about submitting
any of the big-four Fall contest logs until after CQWW CW is over.

I'm not against change, but it should have a purpose...   Is this to speed
up the publication of the results on the web or in QST?  (Personally, I can
wait the extra 15 days...) Or is it to cut down on that nasty evil of log
sanitizing?  (Which IMO is not as pervasive as some seem to believe.)  Or
will it simply serve to make slightly more acute one of contesting's
existing burdens?  If Dan is going to entertain "special situations" (and I
don't envy him this), why not make the deadline one week (or less)?  Then
when your only Internet-enabled PC crashes, or your ISP goes down, you, too,
can cry "foul!"

P.S. I do not perform any post-contest log sanitizing nor do I often take
more than a few days to submit my log.

Why not finish a contest, immediately produce the required file, and then

Ron --

In the Cabrillo summary sheet spec www.kkn.net/~trey/cabrillo/ CheckLog is
indicated as one of the categories although the official rules do not
mention anything about that as a category.

Never tried that myself although I have had the opportunity with many meager
scores!

I tried this, and while the hot glue was a bit uncomfortable for the first hour

I've operated a number of contests from various Caribbean locations.  I
usually center the contest around a vacation so it may be a week or two
before I arrive back home.  Once home there's usually a lot of catching up
to do with numerous home chores and work projects.  I don't travel with
email so I need a lot of time to submit my logs.  Those doing paper logs
certainly benefit by having this amount of time.  Even if you computer log,
your computer may break down and it may take a while to get the data
straightened out.  I like the four week log submission period, especially
with work and family obligations.

Because, as someone else commented, November is loaded with contests, and 
there are a few other things going on.  More to the point, what possible 
anti-cheating benefit is derived from cutting the deadline from 30 to 15 
days?  How can that change affect the incidence of log-fudging in any 
meaningful way?  Inquiring minds want to know!

I think there is too much time at present between the event and the results.
Reducing the time frame for log submission could contribute directly to
shortening this time.  I think it's a good idea.

The reason I rarely do that is because preparing the log is a tedious and
time consuming process which is about the last thing I would want to do
right after opeating a (long) contest.  I might do it after a Sprint, but
getting a big log with lots of QSOs ready is another matter.  Making a big
log presentable takes time and clarity.

If you are suggesting not cleaning up the log, that is a different topic.

Doug,
I dunno about the ears but I have found that being bald helps keep glue off
one's hair, usually.  The other problem I found was that after a phone
contest it was difficult to eat with the mike glued to one's lips.  I
learned eventually to leave a hole into which I could insert a straw.  I
also got some strange looks when I went to work on a Monday altho on Wall
Street nobody says much.  They probably though I was just a new cold caller.

The other problem is that your head can get addicted to hot glue. After a
while your head gets heavy which leads to neck aches...or permanently bowed
heads...or cw only ops.

Remember, FD is coming, even tho it isn't a contest..
.
73,
Dennis K2SX

Lots of comments on this, but most are using tunnel vision.

IMHO there is more to consider than a single op with a 1000 QSO
computerized log.  

Why not send your comments to Dan and let him weigh your inputs

       Hi

 For the last few months we have been trying to get the Heil Pro Headset to
work well with the Yaesu FT-1000MP MK-V, but so far it has resulted in thin
audio
that sounds 2 s points weaker than our MD-200 desk mic. But it is very nice
to use a headset whilst contesting. We have tried both the HC4 and HC5
inserts but have had no luck. We have used the same headset with a contest
club on an FT-1000MP and had OK results. Any help will be appreciated.

KB3MM asked me:

> The log is the log.  What's to clean up ?

Here are a few examples:

Let's say I switched bands on the radio but forgot to switch bands on the
program.  I think I owe it to everyone to go through and do all the ensuing
damage control.

Let's say I misspelled a guy's name - at the moment the rules don't say I
can't go in and correct it later.

Let's say I put in a comment "This guy's a jerk; put him on the jerk list" -
I would want to double-check to make sure that was out prior to submitting
the log (that comment would be for "internal use only," hi).

Sounds like you really want to talk about the topic of massaging or
sanitizing which is beyond the scope of my first comment.  There are plenty
of reasons an op would want to make his log presentable before pressing
"send" which in many people's opinion fall short of "massaging" or
"sanitizing" from a practical standpoint.  Nobody's perfect.

In Dayton, I had the chance to see a demo and talk with the inventor of the 
device he calls "The Time Machine."  Simply put, this inexpensive unit 
allows you to receive ALL of an 80-khz slice of any HF band, and record 6 
hours (per tape) of the whole band segment on a VHS stereo VCR.  Then you 
can go back, at your leisure, and play back any time slice, tuning across 
with your receiver to revisit any station, anywhere within that frequency 
band.

The possibilities strike me as endless -- imagine being able to record the 
first 6 hours on 14000-14080, for example, and play it back later to find 
out why you did better or worse than the competition.  See how W3LPL or 
KC1XX were doing, what they were working and when, while you were 
struggling, or soaring, on the same band.  Or you could put one at a 
station on another continent, and hear later how the whole contest sounded 
from over there.

Check out http://www.expandedspectrumsystems.com/prod2.html for the full 
story.  I have no financial interest -- just think the CQ-Contest audience 
should hear about this.

buying a 706.  was wondering what to do about a headset for bopth general 
operating and contesting....does anyone have anything to say about the 
HS706 (the Heil mic FOR the 706) vs. a computer headset using the circuit 
outlined in a QST a couple months ago?

thanks

This has to be an example of Ham Utopia. One of my friends ( a contester and
DXpeditioner) sent this to me. He shall remain nameless but I thought
sharing his glee most worthwhile...........He has a bid in on some property.

got the permits in 2 hours, before I even own the damn place, u gotta love
that... two 100' 45G... they even allow guy anchors inside the 25'BRL and in
the reserve septic! I guess I had my stuff together, they took the canned
rohn drawings and my hand-drawn site plan and stamped them APPROVED PLANS hi
hi.  This county is soooo ham friendly, it qualified for residential fast
trak same day permit!  The guy checked w/super and came out with solemn look
and said federal law says we have to give u these permits, here you are, all
fees waived except $55!

I will share the QTH information for 25 thousand dollars :-)     He'd KILL
me :-)

Nice to see the good reports once in a while. Heaven knows the troubles most
of us have had...

Have a great summer....IARU/WRTC around the corner now.

I used to do this with a Betamax recorder, using a Drake R4A
receiver as the front end.  The sensitivity wasn't great, because
the RF gain was cranked back low, and the bandwidth was only
~6 -10 KHz with varying attenuation, but it was limited primarily
by the R4A first IF crystal filter rather than the VCR.  Had to fudge
the "BFO" l.o. way out of alignment to put the filter into proper
perspective.  I "FM-ed" the output of my T4X with the carrier
gain cut all the way to zero into a dummy load and listened on
the receiver to play the signals back.  You could hear a lot of CW
signals tuning around in that bandwidth, and it made for great
post-contest fun and games.

This one might be legitimate, but why wait till afterward??  I do it when
it's still fresh in my head (after a break, or between the next band

..... Or just look up the correct spelling on QRZ.com???  Log checking

In my experience, the cabrillo log checking robots would not compute this in
a data field and they would send you a "danger Will Robinson" reply
immediately.  You can then go and edit that line and resubmit.  Gab/notes
don't go into the cabrillo log anyway they?

When the contest time is up, it's up.  I press save and send it off.

Duct tape works well.

I'm not a frequent SSB contest participant.  Also, a few years ago, I threw
out a couple of my old boom mic/headsets (the headphones were shot).  For
one SSB contest I did get into a year or two ago, I took my Ten-Tec desk mic
and some duct tape and fashioned a loop to hang the mic stand with the base
against my chest and the mic near my mouth.  Worked great!  No tape to rip
off my scalp after the contest and lose hair--I'm doing that naturally and
medically.

Not for me. I fix calls like G444XYZ (sticky key probably) and ##DF2ABC 
(clearly a typo). Obvious stuff I got wrong, and 95% of the time I KNOW it's 
wrong ahead of time, but didn;t have the time or inclination to fix it 
during the test (I haven't slept for 30 hours, I'm running at 100+, and I 
type G444444444444444444ABC. I make a mental note to fix it when times get 
slow, and maybe forget).

Also damn time errors. Writelog, god bless its heart, did a timesetback 
(thats's a verb folks) during WPX SSB due to daylight savings time in 
England. I manually editing over 1000 times (and got a few wrong when I 
rechecked).

That said, I approve of faster log submittal times.

I don't think log submission is the gating item in the log checking or
results generation process!  If you are going to allow exceptions, why
bother to shorten the deadline.

I would attack the problem a different way.  Give us an incentive to submit
more quickly!

I keep a paper notepad next to my operating position to keep track of things 
like this to go back and fix later.

Better to do it later in calm moment than in the heat of battle...

I'd rather go back and fix it than depend on the kindness of the log 
checkers (no offence meant to any log checkers!-).

I will correct obvious misteaks - if the name entered is "jefg" I know it 
should be "jeff" - UNLESS I make a note of the unusual name in my paper 
notes. This works for me, anyway.

Single ops seem to have no problem with sending logs in right away, but some of
our multi-op efforts resulted in logs that were totally screwed up.  At one
point we had a lot of RF getting into the computers and we had to manually
search the logs for calls like XQY7JO63C.  These were not calls we typed in,
these were gibberish calls that showed up in the log off screen during the
contest, so we didn't know they were there until a post-contest examination.
With the 3 plus 1 penalty in CQ WW we could have easily lost a large percentage
of our actual score.  Sometimes the RF was there and sometimes it wasn't.
Fortunately, the problem seems to have departed, but I still check.  And it
takes time to go through thousands of Qs.

Another time we had a computer go screwy and start doubling contacts, that is,
we would enter KH7R on 20, for example, and then out of nowhere KH7R would also
show up as a QSO on 80.  That one took a while to fix.  Then there was the time
the commercial power took a hit and we came back up OK except after the contest
the times were 7 hours off.  Another time we came up after a power hit with the
wrong date.  Both those took a lot of post-contest time to fix.  (Yes I did buy
a UPS and it got some use in WPX CW!)  One time I had to ask for a log filing
extension just to get things ironed out.

Did you ever log part of the contest on paper and the rest on computer?  Try
sending that one in right after contest.

There are a lot of times I go to sleep shortly after the contest and 12 hours
later I'm headed to the airport only to be out of town for a week or two.  I
guess if I didn't have any other life, I just stayed home, computers never
crashed, the power company got their act together and  I ran only single-op QRP
I would probably want to reduce the log deadline to right after the contest.
Until that time I vote NO.

Message-ID: <01c20dd2$86fb3ae0$LocalHost@default>

50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HELSINKI OLYMPIC GAMES

Exactly fifty years before the opening of the WRTC2002 Games in Helsinki this 
year, 
there was a ceremony on the Arctic Circle in the always exotic Lapland (OH9) to 
mark the lighting of the Olympic torch and the start of the relaying of the 
torch on a 
long journey to Helsinki.
The Olympic Stadium was packed full on July 19, 1952 during the opening 
ceremony 
of the XV Olympic Games in Helsinki. This year we are celebrating the 50th 
anniversary of the greatest event in Finnish sports history.

Those participating in the greatest and most spirited event in radio 
contesting, 
WRTC2002, are encouraged to join in the July 19, 2002 festivities at the 
Helsinki 
Olympic Stadium when footage of the original opening ceremony will connect us 
from 1952 to the present day in a true Olympic spirit.

"Any hints on getting the residual glue off my ears and out of my hair?"

Why bother - since this was hot glue - seems best to leave it Doug, you can
probably re-use it by simply putting your head in a microwave and warming it
up just prior to the next contest!

Shouldn't this discussion be moved to the HPH (high performance headphones)

     To answer the question posed about how hard is to log contacts
on the wrong band given that in 2002 everyone has computer control
of the rigs...

     It is very easy to log contacts on the wrong band in a VHF contest.
There are no "all-band" VHF/UHF contest radios.  A typical VHF contest 
station might look like: http://n5xu.ae.utexas.edu/n5xu/vhf.html
You have one or two rigs for 50, 144, and 432, but you need to use
transverters for 222, 1296, etc.  You may have almost one rig per band, 
and I don't know of any major contest logging software that can handle 
the concept of five or six computer-controlled rigs, with each one
representing one or two or three bands, each possibly reporting the 
IF frequency rather than the RF frequency...

I agree with Randy.  The biggest problem with log checking is getting
everyone to submit a proper log.
When you receive logs in say a non cabrillo format the log must be run
through a converter and with some contests this is no trivial task.  Then
there needs to be an incentive to get the paper log entries to put them on a
computer even if post contest.  Hand checking these logs is also not a
trivial task. Please remember that some still do not have a PC.   A certain
Russian contester would tell me thanks for accepting his hand log.  Well
before this years contest I gave him some reasons to get it on the computer.
Low and behold he sent in the entry on diskette using a PC at his work.
Next year he says he will send it via e-mail.

Perhaps there should be three incentives: (say add points like the ARRL
Field Day)

One for fast log entry (say arrives with the 15 days).
One for being in the proper format.  Most of the logging programs produce a
cabrillo format but you have to have the correct (latest?) version.
The final incentive would be to get it on a computer even if you send a
diskette.

This would sure speed up log checking of the CQ 160 Contests.

One further comment.  When one has put in a big effort in a contest why
don't  we put the same effort in providing a log that fully meets contest
requirements?

Hi all,
I want to remind you of the upcoming All Asian DX Contest which will 
be held 1 week later. This contest must be a great oppotunity for you 
to get many Asian rare entities and many old friends in Asia. 

The contest period will be from 0000 6/15 to 2400 6/16.
When you contact any Asian station, please send RST + your age. 
For example, I send 59941 as I am 41 years old.
If you are a YL station, you can send 00 instead of your real age. 

The detailed rule can be found on the following JARL official page;
http://www.jarl.or.jp/English/4_Library/A-4-3_Contests/AADX.htm
The result of 2001 is rinked to the same page.

The only change from last year is regarding a special plaque.
There are not so many sponsors, however, you have a chance to get a 
special plaque from JARL. The plaques as of today is shown on the 
following page;
http://www.jarl.or.jp/English/4_Library/A-4-3_Contests/2002donor.htm

JARL doesn't provide a junior operators category, however, the
operator's 
age can be found from the exchange. So the Alumni Association of JA7YDX 
sponsors to the "Junior winner of sigle operator". If you are 18 years 
old or younger, please try to get this plaque. If you are a YL station 
and you are 18 years or younger, you had better write your real age on
the 
summary sheet. 

Though I wanted to notify this news to a lot of young operators, I 
don't have any address list of young operators. If there are young 
operators in your neighborhood or in your family, please tell him/her 
this event.

If you are a CT user, try to download a newer version from the following

registered user's site;
http://www.k1ea.com/ctvault/
Ken worked hard to meet the new rule of the All Asian DX Contest last 
year, and the ver 9.61 or later can be completeley fit to AADX.

If you have any question about this contest, please contact the JARL 
contest committee;  contest@jarl.or.jp

Thanks and 73,

1. The connection between computer and rig fails (bad or loose connection) 
and you don't notice right away.

2. Until recently, my K2 did not have a serial port, so it was an issue.

I agree with Randy & several others that the shortening the deadline, at
this time, does not appear to make sense.

Now, I'm all for getting contest results back in hand faster, but I think a
combination two things already in process will take care of this:

First, the posting of the results to the web when completed (which saves 6
to 8 weeks or more waiting for them to be printed in the appropriate
periodical & waiting for it to arrive snail mail).

Second, the significant number of logs being submitted in a standard format
electronically.  CQ already requires that all logs be sent electronically,
and it stands to reason that at some point in the future this will be
mandated for most or all of the major contests.  If the logs are in a
standard format, then it should be a lot faster for the contest committee to
compile data into their master database and then select only those logs that
may need scrutiny (for whatever reason) rather than handle pile after pile
of paper.

But shortening the deadline for two weeks, IMHO, puts an undue burden on
those who need the time to:
1.   go over their logs for mistakes -- as many have pointed out, there are
legitmate reasons for doing so
2.  need to return from travelling, either work or contest related, and then
get the logs in
3.  do not, for whatever reason, keep their contest logs electronically, or
do not use the correct format, or don't have email access, etc., and have to
make arrangements to get their logs converted or entered whatever and then
sent in to the appropriate email.

I'm sure that there will be at least two or three who will reply something
on the lines of "let them get computers, let them get a cheap ISP, and let
them get the right software!"   That's another thread for another time;
let's just say that I think it will be a sad day when a shack computer for
contest logging is mandated for contest operation (key word there is
"mandated")

I don't think log submission is the gating item in the log checking or

bother to shorten the deadline.

I would attack the problem a different way.  Give us an incentive to submit
more quickly!

I would try putting "checklog" in the subject line and in the soapbox field. I 
sent in 
cabrillo files to the ARRL for the 2001 CW and SSB DX contests. I wanted them 
used only
as checklogs and stated that very clearly in the soapbox fields. They ended up 
in the
contest results as regular entries. I suppose I could have said "I cheated in 
this
contest" in the soapbox fields and no one would have noticed - hi. I thought 
the emails
with my logs might bounce if I put "checklog" in the subject, but now I see 
that's
probably the proper way to get the message through.

This would be a very FUN contest if the JA's participated!

Get on 15 meters on a non-contest weekend and you'll have a JA pileup.  Get
on during a contest weekend and you'll be working 40/hr if you're lucky.

I stopped doing All Asia and JIDX a while ago.  Maybe I'l give out a few

You are welcome to visit the website of "World Wide Young Contesters" at
http://wwyc.webbg.com/. You can find many young operators in our members
list (http://wwyc.webbg.com/pages/members.php?pg=1). I have also forwarded
the announcement to our email reflector, so hopefully there will be some
competition for the plaque! Thanks to Alumni Association of JA7YDX for
sponsoring the prize.

Hope to work you in the contest!

Isn't it time to explicitly ask N1ND to explain the rationale for the 
proposed change?

FWIW, I agree with Randy -- the anti-cheating argument doesn't hold much

While this company does have a lot of different cases, their prices are high
(typical retail, no discount).  In addition, for the Pelican cases, they use
the same picture for every size case...

For cheap pelican cases, try www.cases4less.com among other web discounters
(I have no interest in Pelican or this website - it just has cheap cases and
delivers quickly).  This place sells the 1650 without foam for $155 - this
is cheaper than most personal luggage, and much more durable!

The experience of the 6Y2A and HC8N teams has lead us all to use the Pelican
1650 case.  For the durability and price, you can't beat it.  In addition,
these cases are used by divers, film crews etc, that they are very common,
and often go unnoticed.   I first got a ATA spec'd Hardigg case (VERY
expensive, and "military looking"), and it was stopped at every point for
inspection... not so with the Pelican case.

And as always, the foam you use to pack your equipment is THE most critical
item.  I have a lot of info and photos on packing the MP and other equipment
on my DxHoliday website:  http://dxholiday.com/dxresources.htm#equipmenttips

Message-ID: <f2.1cc5619b.2a34b08c@aol.com>

Several of y'all had asked me to keep you informed on my TH-7 boom conversion 
project.
Kirk, K4RO, had modified his tribander with an Omega match per N4KG's design 
and reports not only fine results, but even better, higher contest scores on 
40 meters. With Kirk's encouragement I set off to duplicate this antenna. I 
have a crank-up tower, so could not tune the antenna at it's operating 
height. Tuning it with the tower cranked down proved pointless. The resonant 
frequency changed drastically when extending the tower. I've finally found a 
solution to the problem which not only lets me tune the antenna to 1:1 
anywhere on 40 with the tower extended, it also gives me a 1:1 match on 30 as 
a bonus.
My description of the antenna, with photos, can be found at:

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Etiquette
Message-ID: <005601c20fc6$307dfea0$03010a0a@office1>

My club sponsors a local 2M FM contest every January.  We're starting to
work on the updated rules for the 2003 event.  I'd like to solicit some of
the more experienced ops here on the list for suggestions or advice... if
you're not interested, my apologies for the bandwith & no need to read
further.

A problem we ran into last year was that of, for lack of better terms, rude
or marginally ethical behavior from a few stations; most where newcomers or
non-contesters who didn't know better, and a few of the "damn the rules, win
at all costs" school.  As a result of this, we're thinking of doing two
things:

(a)  Add a rule to the effect that will permit disqualification for improper
behavior
(b)  Add to the rules a one-sheet addendum detailing what we consider "good
amateur practice."

The biggest problems last year were two-fold.

First, we had many situations were someone would call "CQ Contest" for
several minutes, finally get a call, work the "new" one -- and then get his
frequency clobbered by 10-12 stations who had simply been listening and then
jumped once the contact was made.  This scared off some of the "new" ones
who didn't know what was going on or how to handle a pile-up, and ticked off
the station calling CQ because "his" frequency was absconded.  (In the early
hour of the contest -- it runs 4 hours -- you'd hear someone politely asking
to call, and that worked out well.  In the last hour, politeness went out
the window as some got very ruthless about trying to "win").

Second, we had a situation with one club station who thought nothing of
calling "CQ" right on top of anyone -- be it a contact in progress, or
someone else calling CQ, or in one case a scheduled net (that we didn't know
about) trying to conduct themselves.  This station was also reported to be
trying to work stations on 146.52 & below simplex frequencies, which we had
explicitly declared as a "no contest" area for those trying to operate
outside the contest.  One of the ops did not take kindly to "suggestions"
from the contest committee to knock it off, which led to some interesting
situations -- it's actually kind of funny to hear someone tell the guy who
conceived the contest & wrote most of the rules that he didn't know what he
was talking about!  Sad, but funny.

Regardless, we're figuring that an "etiquette" page of "good amateur
practice" adapted for 2M FM Simplex will be a big help for those who simply
didn't know better and were just doing what they heard on the air.  And,
unfortunately, since we didn't have a "DQ" rule in place, we now see that we
need one to curb those that get out of hand.

Any suggestions welcome.  And thanks!

Make sure the case you buy is ATA rated, or the airlines will balk at paying 
damage claims.

Another tip from my roadie travel log - A nice new looking case gets lots 
more scrutiny (from nosy customs guys, security, thieves, etc.) than one that 
looks like it routinely travels. To give your gear that "used/travelled" 
look, get some stickers and plaster all over them. Rip them and make them 
aged looking for more authenticity. Freebie radio station call letter bumper 
stickers and things like that are good, as are old worn looking shipping 
labels (even if they are fake). After a while and some mileage, you won't 
have to worry about it - the stickers will be necessary to hold the case 
together!

Hi everyone:

        Allow me to throw a match onto this dying thread.  I guess I'm in
the minority on this one, and I'm willing to consider that my thinking is
colored by the fact that I have a WPX-friendly callsign that's actually
assigned to me !
        Firstly, I'm not sure that some of the respondents addressed  the
intent of the original question - either that, or I misunderstood it, hi.
The original post referred to the increasingly common practice of a single
op using someone else's callsign, when the licensee is in no way connected
with the operation aside from "lending" the callsign, and the operation is
clearly not at the QTH of the licensee.  From the responses so far:

-  in N6TJ's example, it should be fine to use the DX station's call - it's
his station, licensed to his QTH !

-  in K4OJ's example, WC4E's call was used at a location not his own, but
when I look at the ops listed for that operation, Jeff is listed as one
    of the ops, and if I know Jeff, he was there for much if not all of the
weekend !  This practice has apparently been OK at least for 20 years.  Jeff
was THERE during the operation.

-  in the NS0Z/K4VX example, I'm assuming that if they are married, they
live together, and NS0Z's license shows that address as the QTH !   No
problem with that !

-  the Rex Maner / WR7HE post may be the only example that accurately
reflects the original question...

Do the FCC regulations really allow for this practice ?  I remember 30 years
ago when we had to be very careful about signing portable, even when at a
friend's house across town.  Then, I think about 20 years ago, apparently it
became unnecessary to sign portable, and then any US call could be anywhere
in the USA.  Have we now gotten to the point where the callsign  used in the
contest doesn't have to give ANY information about the location OR the
operator ?  I don't think this practice is acceptable for DXCC, for example,
otherwise I could have gotten 5BWAZ from KC1XX a long time ago while never
leaving my house !

Consider this:  the operator using the call gets an FCC citation
(unintentionally, of course), which is sent to the licensee, not the
operator.  If it were your callsign being used, can you picture yourself
saying "well, uh, gee, I really don't know anything about it - the operation
wasn't at my house, and I was never there.  I let some guy use my call for
the weekend..."

I'm all for trying to get competitive advantages, within the rules.  I just
wonder if this one is something that we should be doing.  And, I mean no
disrespect to my friends and fellow contesters who may have done this in the
past.  I simply offer my thoughts as fodder for possible discussion.

If you're really looking for that advantage in WPX, trade in your primary
call for a 2x1 !  They work just fine the other 50 weekends too !

                                                        Regards
Stu            KC1F

The best solution to the WPX callsign issue is to form a club and get a club
callsign for WPX. It only takes 3 other members and they don't even have to
be hams (XYL and kids in my case - WK6LA, the West LA Contest Club.)

Message-ID: <3D03CDB1.A7A@erols.com>

I know that ARRL HQ, many times, has permitted their call (W1AW) to be 
used at various venues. Dayton, for example, operates W1AW/8 at their 
site.  I know this was done because I visited Dayton and saw W1AW/8 being 
operated. I also know that the ARRL had issued them a letter advising 
that they had permission to do so AND the ARRL quoted an FCC part 97 rule 
section which authorized it.

Our local ham club at Social Security Admin did the same thing. Had their 
club/group callsign used at individuals homes as part of an event but 
again.. they had authorization from the Club trustee to do it.

As far as I can understand it, in the case of an individual allowing his 
call to be used by another when they aren't there.. this would seem to be 
OK assuming the control op (the person in charge of the operation) is 
adhering to the rules for being a control op and operations are within 
the priveledges of the licensee acting as control op.  OF course.. if an 
FCC cite makes it way to the holder of the callsign being used.. htey are 
going to have to answer it since they are the one responsible for the 
callsign. The control operator may have some culpability and may be 
guilty of violating the rules and have some accountability, but the 
callsign holder is the one who getsthe cite and has to answer it.

I've got to get in another .02c worth.  Yes the holder of the call sign is
going to have to answer any citation issued for improper operation.  The
holder of the call has to have enough trust in the borrower that operation
will follow the rules.   The answer to a citation would, in most cases only
have to say that an error was made while in the heat of contesting and steps
have been taken to assure that this type of infraction will not re-occure.

Being a good contester, I decided to get TWO.  I asked if I could get two
rebates and they said "as long as I sent them in separately."   After I had
checked out, they THEN told me they have a "one rebate per household" rule
but confidentially advised me to get around it by sending them in from two
different addresses.

Whatever.  Be prepared.

I hope the monitors are as good as you say, Dave.

What Dave didn't say was that they also have the EN-910s on sale with the
rebate - which makes them something like $150 after rebate.  I didn't think
two of them would fit on the desk.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] 1 and 2
Message-ID: <20020611092031.44326.qmail@web13805.mail.yahoo.com>

Hi Contesters,


In the big contests (mainly WW) I often hear (A and B
VFO) that multi and/or single (!) station calling CQ
TEST (with a big signal) and same callsign ?MULT? (S&P
with a weak signal) goes back in same band same time.
(I think there are 2 stations (signals) in same band
same time.) That?s cheating. I have an idea to stop
them (perhaps): if the CQ station gives a nr: 1 after
the zone or nr (59/599 151 or 59/599 0011) and the
BACK station gives a nr: 2 after the zone or nr
(59/599 152 or 59/599 0012) so then the contest
committee can see clearly (?) the cheating: that MULT
and non mult QSOs in pileups (with 2 in 1s) in the
log?

What's Your opinion?

Zoli,

The technique you're suggesting can only show if the station worked was
called or calling. Nothing else. It is legal to make a QSO by any way -
running or S&Ping in random order...
How could you possibly know what was going on from this "Log":

1233   HA5PP   59001R  59001M
1233  HA6PP   59002R  57001M
1234  HA7PP  59003M  59014R
1237  HA8PP  59004R  59006M
1238  HA9PP  59005R  59001M
etc
(I used R and M instead of 1 and 2, for better clarity)

Back in 1970ies and 80ies, with 15 minute time limits for Multi/Single
stations, the cheating was done using "rubber clock": A running station
started the designated time block operation 2-3 minutes earlier, and
remained 2-3 minutes longer, thus making each 15 minute segment actually 20
minutes of operation. So, each hour was splitted in 4 time segments, and
actuall operation lasted not 60 but 80 minutes. Multiply it by 48 hours, and
you get 960 minutes of extra time per station, or 16 hours. Both runner and
multiplier station make total of 32 extra hours during 48 hour contest.
Those "experts" risked only 2-3 minutes of simultaneous operation on two
bands, every 15 minutes, but you will agree that it was very difficult to
catch this, even with carefull monitoring. Those were the days of paper
logs, and it was easy to correct times and squeeze these 2-3 minutes within
15 minute limits. Log cross checking by a committee could not easyly detect
this, due to the fact that 2 or 3 minutes difference in reported times could
be addressed to slightly detuned clocks used. And those "masters" knew it.

Computer logging made some trouble to this technique, since the clocks
became much better tuned now :-)

However, new technique emerged: having another S&P station on a runner's
band. As long as you keep one signal at a time, it is perfectly legal to
collect anything you wish on a runner's band, using second radio (and
amplifier and antenna too...). Many big Multi Multis are using twin setup
per band, and you can see it on their web pages. They do not advertise the
way they keep a single signal at a time, though. And there are big Multis
that don't care about this limit...

I do not mean to discourage you in an attempt to protect honest hams from
cheaters, but the situation we have today is very dissapointing:
QRP winners were using few hundred watts; Low power high scorers were using
high power; High power highscorers were using many many kilowatts; Single op
entrants had assistants, or used packet clusters; Multi op teams had more
than a single signal per limit at a time, or spread their contest QTH across
entire nation, or had a remote receiver placed close to a 3 point continent
and relayed the audio via various means, etc;  Not to mention heavy
pre-contest advertising, web announcements, special awards or QSL cards,
T-shirts and mugs for fivebanders, sixbanders...

Maybe, with this new Time Machine invention, bands can be monitored very
succesfully, and cheaters caught easier. But then, the cheaters usually just
get warned, their score omitted from the listings, and it only turns them to
be more cautious next time :-(

In the big contests (mainly WW) I often hear (A and B
VFO) that multi and/or single (!) station calling CQ
TEST (with a big signal) and same callsign ?MULT? (S&P
with a weak signal) goes back in same band same time.
(I think there are 2 stations (signals) in same band
same time.) That?s cheating. I have an idea to stop
them (perhaps): if the CQ station gives a nr: 1 after
the zone or nr (59/599 151 or 59/599 0011) and the
BACK station gives a nr: 2 after the zone or nr
(59/599 152 or 59/599 0012) so then the contest
committee can see clearly (?) the cheating: that MULT
and non mult QSOs in pileups (with 2 in 1s) in the
log?

What's Your opinion?

Hello Zoli,
  Many of the big USA M/M stations have two stations
for each band.  They usually have a big stack for the
run station, and a smaller monobander on a seperate
tower for the multiplier station.  That explains the
signal difference.  Most of these stations, however,
run an interlock which prevents two signals being
transmitted on the same band.  I know for sure W3LPL
has such a setup and I believe K3LR and KC1XX probably
do to.  
  These M/M stations aggressively work any station
they can find, and any DX spot, all the while
continuing to CQ. However it has been my experience
that they do watch out and have methods in place to
prevent transmitting more than 1 signal on a band at a
time. 
   What you probably heard was a station CQing in one
spot, and happened to catch the mult station make a
QSO while the CQing station was pausing for a reply.  
   If you definitely heard a station transmitting more
than one signal in the same band, I recommend emailing
the sponsors.  If enough people complain, they'll do
something about it.

That may be true of some stations, but the legit ones are very quick to
share the techniques they use...and have done so right here on this
reflector.

WRTC2002 COMMITTEE ANNOUNCES ONE MORE TEAM

How many cards are there in a pack of cards? Yes, and that is the number of 
world-class teams in WRTC2002. Fifty-two (52) two-man teams are busy shaping 
their strategies to compete for the title of  World's Best in Amateur Radio 
Team Contesting. Gold, silver and bronze medals are being polished for 
presentation to the winners.

We are delighted to have Hrane Milosevic, YT1AD and Mladen Bogdanov, YU7NU join 
the event as a wildcard selection and second team from Yugoslavia. The Yugoslav 
team will replace the N6KT/ K6NA team since Rich, N6KT is not able to come for 
reasons beyond his control. We invite Rich to be in Helsinki in spirit and 
welcome Glenn Ratman,K6NA as one of our senior referees at WRTC2002.

After WRTC 2002 I will be on a Baltic Cruise from July 19 to July 26 and
we will be docking at the ports listed above.  Would like to meet some
of the locals at least for a beer while we're in port.  Please let me know
if you are available.

I'll be in NW Connecticut for FD Weekend and am looking for a FD site to
invade for a couple hours- I'll be in Goshen  (Woodridge Lake area)-
Anything happening at Mohawk Mtn or close by?
I worked at one years ago north of Torrington but dont remember where it
was- I just remember a big mountain, rain and good, cold beer.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Automated Logs Received Page for ARRL Contests
Message-ID: <125490A005E3D3118C9C00805FC743CC044F8D45@KAHLESS>

At noon on Friday June 14, ARRL turned on an automated "Logs Received" page
for the ARRL June VHF QSO Party.  All properly submitted electronic logs
that are receipted by the Contest Robot are automatically added to the page
on an hourly basis.

Logs that are returned to the sender with a message citing problems and
needing corrections are not receipted by the Robot and will not appear on
the list. They will only appear once corrections are made by the participant
and the re-submitted log has been receipted by the Robot.  Paper logs that
must be manually entered by the ARRL Contest Branch staff also will not
appear on the list until after submission deadlines have passed for the
contest and all data entry for the paper logs has been completed.

This automated system be utilized for all future ARRL-sponsored contests
that are supported by the Cabrillo format and the Contest Robot.

Field Day is not supported by the Robot.  Field Day logs will be posted once
all initial data entry for the event has been finished.

If you have questions, please feel free to contact me at n1nd@arrl.org or by
phone at 860-594-0232.

My station is still available for many of the summer contests.  This is
your chance to try out different radios, big antennas, amps, SO2R, etc
with low pressure contests.  I now have the SO2R setup installed and
working so you can try that stuff out.  I also have vhf/uhf setup for
6m, 2m, 70cm, though only low power and on one radio.  Bring a friend or
two and do a multi op.  There is no charge for using my station, I see
this as a chance to keep the dust off the equipment and test out changes
during the summer slow times.  Please feel free to pass this info on to
anyone who you think may be interested.

I have operations scheduled now for:
6/22-23 Field Day
7/13-14 IARU - doing m/s, could still use an op or two

This would be an interesting statistic - I would be especially interested
from the other side of the rim - wonder if there are any major JA or other
Asian logs which could be crunched for data as to ages of the US
entrants....CT, NA etc import quite nicely into Excel!

I know Sweepstakes Checks have been looked at along these lines but this
would be even more telling!

With WriteLog in RTTY, I use the mouse only to highlight parts of his 
report that my log needs (his call  and individual pieces of his contest 
exchange).  I could type these in, but mousing is easier. The F keys are 
set up to do the rest.

Typically in an RTTY contest, I have two mouse clicks and two key presses 
per QSO when running

In CW or SSB, I would type them in rather than mouse click.

Hello Steve
NA does this very well and also CT an TR programs do the same things.  I
like NA for personal reasons.  It covers almost any contest you can think of
and some that you dream up.
A free down load can be had from http://www.ac6v.com/  I'm sure that it is
available several other places.

Hi Contesters,


There was a pretty good condx (20 and 15 m) during
AA-DX CW (and WPX CW also) but sorry there were not
enough participans. Or there were lots of
"participans" with NO activity, only looked clusters
for some rare country and do not give a little QSO to
avid contest stations. I saw ages in AA-DX CW, all
(90-95 %) conesters gave me over 36 years (I gave 40.)
I think that Asia is "old". After 20 years will not be
contesters there, or most of Asians will give 56, 66,
58, 78, 87, 95 101... How about this in USA and EU??

Congrats to W1PL, Laci (Laci bacsi), I heard his
number is 90. Long live Laci bacsi, long live ham
contest!!!

The only contest logging software I've used is TR-Log. It was recommended 
to me 5 years ago by several fellow contesters and I've never regretted the 
decision to try TR-Log. Literally, it does everything. Being in the DOS 
environment doesn't bother me. I also use it for non-contest logging. If 
you are a CW op, you will really appreciate its endless capabilities.

Steve, I would give WL a strong vote over TR.  TR is a DOS program.  Not that 
there is anything wrong with that, as Seinfeld would say.  It's just that you 
would be latching onto something from an old generation.  

I have been using WL for 3 years and, although I have my frustrations with 
it, I do really love it.  A friend of mine who is a died-in-the-wool TR geek 
had me try TR.  In a way, it is really cleaver, but I did find it quite 
difficult to used to.  TR has many wonderful features, but for me WL does the 
job nicely.

Actually, you could adopt both WL and TR, and have a really fun time learning 
both.  Throw in CT and NA for grins.  With the combination, you would 
probably have max flexibility for contesting!

Folks,

Just in time for FD the freeware version of TR has been posted to the TR web
site. It is based on the latest version, 6.68, and is fully functional for a
limited number of contests including ARRL Field Day, Stew Perry, Region One
Field Day, Japanese International DX Contest, New Zealand Field Day, South
American World  Wide Contest, ...and CW Simulator Mode. There have been many

Message-ID: <RELAY14o4x1vbE0BPnM00087515@relay1.softcomca.com>

I'll be attending a CITEL meeting in Fortaleza in mid-July and was wondering if 
there are any contesters/DXers there who would like to get together during the 
meeting (some ARRL folks will be there, too).

Message-ID: <008101c216cb$d7175d40$8600a8c0@yumaaz.adelphia.net>

With the advent of ARRL's enhanced on-line contest
reporting,
constraints on the number of contest categories
imposed by available QST space
are removed, or at least reduced. Computerized
log-checking has also reduced
the need to minimize the number of categories in
contests, since the administrative
overhead has been reduced.

I'd like to see the High Band (10, 15, 20) and Low
Band (40, 80, 160) categories
restored in the ARRL DX Test. There are a number
of reasons why I think this move
would enhance the contest world-wide:

1. Declining JA activity has made it much more
difficult for western USA
stations to compete in all categories, but
especially the all-band category,
where absorption on 40, 80, and 160 precludes big
European runs.

2. There are a lot of stations around the world
who have a small tower and tribander
in the back yard, and an assortment of low,
seriously compromised antennas for 40,
80, and 160. There is not much incentive for these
stations to get on the air in the
all band category, since they know that they
cannot turn in a competitive score. On the
other hand, a tribander can do a quite creditable
job on the high bands, which would
encourage activity.

3. The single-band category, while enabling
disadvantaged stations to be more competitive
on one single band, rapidly gets to be pretty
boring.

4. The High band/ low band categories would enable
SO2R operation, making the contest much
more interesting than single band category, where
SO2R is impracticable for most people.


To me, the payoff in any contest is to enjoy the
contest experience itself, and, afterward, to
to see how I ranked, with the data arranged the
way I like to see it presented. I
really don't care about QST listings or
certificates. By the time QST and the certificates
come out, the contest is old news. Coupled with
the ARRL's growing accent on Internet
score reporting, I think the additional categories
would add a spark of growth and an
interesting new dimension to the ARRL DX Test.

I would like to add my humble vote "yes" to this idea.

As Dave mentions in his list of reasons, I'm one of those
ops that has been doing single band efforts the last few 
years because I get whipped like a rented mule on 80/160.
Even with good conditions and high Q totals my "all band" 
scores are pathetic.

Normally I don't subscribe to the idea of making changes 
just to allow more folks into the winning circle but this is a
good idea. It will allow the low banders the weekend for
non radio stuff and the highbanders some sleep. As the
cycle swings the crowd will shift from high to low. 

The ops that win "all band" will still win "all band", of course, 
as I doubt they would be interested in this idea. Their plaque 
would still look the same with or without high/low divisions 
but their scores might be reduced overall somewhat as some
stations will refuse to move up/down.

There is no down side to Dave's idea. You might be against
it if you were serious about getting the world record but that's
a long way off now and maybe never happen as TVI and old
age wipes us out one by one.

While I will be the first to say that "we don't need no stinking new 
categories - we got too many already", I believe that Dave's proposal makes 
much sense.

i *am* old enough to remember the "hign band" and "low band" categories, and 
probably would enter one of these categories occasionally (and probably let 
someone else simultaneously do the other one as well).

Dave's points are very well taken, although my personal interest in that I'd 
love to spend lots of time on the lowbands - all of them - yet still be 
potentially competitive (hmmm, lowband SSB - maybe I'd skip that one :) then 
again, maybe not)

I have to agree wholeheartedly with Dave.  When the high and low band 
categories were created for the ARRL DX Contest in the middle seventies, it 
seemed to me like a great idea.  To paraphrase Dave's points, it seemed 
like there were a number of ways to be really competitive in high band; 
from a TH6 to a big quad, to a monobander Christmas tree.  When I first 
went off to school in Arkansas in 1976, I saw the other side.  My new 
friend WA5RTG (now K5GO) was an avid entry in the low band category, with a 
Mosley S-402 shorty-fourty (a big antenna in those days) and an assortment 
of low band wires.  As Dave points out, you don't have to focus on big 
antennas for six bands.

While I respect the efforts put forth by the single band entrants, those 
categories have little or no interest to me.

I never understood why the low and high band categories were done away 
with.  I would like to see some consideration given to bringing them back.

Yes, this is a very good idea. Many low-budget contesters find it hard to
get good antennas for all the 6 bands, yet find that a weekend stuck on just
one band can get rather monotonous. A Low or High Band entry gives a guy/gal
more enjoyment and variety without the need for the such a big antenna
set-up.

But why keep it just for the ARRL DX Test ? Surely there are other contests
where this would work as well.

Who should we write to in order to get this idea really moving ????

They were done away with to encourage more participation on the low
bands. It was thought that the ubiquitous tribander in concert with
the high band category was keeping the little guys off the low bands.

The WPX tribander/wires category is a partial answer to this that
suits the little guy.

Also, why NOT allow an entrant to submit more than one single band
entry. What harm does that do? Takes a very skilled contester to max
out two different bands.

Message-ID: <90A937CA4FC5B247896E968A21A92E7D0DBAB7@EMAIL7.bsu.edu>

Let me tell you why antenna- or propagation-challenged ops
did NOT like the High/Low band categories in the ARRL DX
test and why the single band categories were big improvements.

Low band means you must have good antennas for 3 difficult
bands - 40, 80 and 160 to be competitive.  Many of us can
swing one or another of those, at least on a temporary
basis but cannot get up or keep up all three.

Similarly, while tribanders are popular antennas for the
high bands, to do well in the High Band category, you need
propagation on all three bands!  This may be ok for those
in Florida, who apparently get 10 meter openings to DX even
in the punk years, but is murder for those in the Midwest.

The Single Band categories are much superior.  If you want
to operate two or three bands, you can, and still enter
you best band as a Single Band score. This is much more
likely to be competitive or "respectible" than entering
a Tri-band category with only one band's score, especially
since multipliers count on a "per-band" basis.

I have to agree wholeheartedly with Dave.  When the high and low band 
categories were created for the ARRL DX Contest in the middle seventies, it 
seemed to me like a great idea.  To paraphrase Dave's points, it seemed 
like there were a number of ways to be really competitive in high band; 
from a TH6 to a big quad, to a monobander Christmas tree.  When I first 
went off to school in Arkansas in 1976, I saw the other side.  My new 
friend WA5RTG (now K5GO) was an avid entry in the low band category, with a 
Mosley S-402 shorty-fourty (a big antenna in those days) and an assortment 
of low band wires.  As Dave points out, you don't have to focus on big 
antennas for six bands.

While I respect the efforts put forth by the single band entrants, those 
categories have little or no interest to me.

I never understood why the low and high band categories were done away 
with.  I would like to see some consideration given to bringing them back.

At medium high latitudes when the sun-cycle will be low, an "high band" 
category will merge more or less into a SB20 entry.

Not really. Do 10 or 15, and 80 or 160. Except for the peak of the cycle, 
when one is open the other is dead.

I can see the arguments on both sides of the High Band/Low Band debate, but
what's the rationale behind allowing only one single-band entry? The ARRL DX
rules make a pretty big deal out of prohibiting this, so there must be a
reason. But on the surface, it seems like it would increase participation
and fun. There are definitely some interesting possibilities for SO2R ops.

After reading my prior post a few time, I realized how the sentence
could be read otherwise...

Let me reword.

New entry category: Two-band. Single operator only.
Entrant picks any two bands. Entry is scored in the same fashion as an
all band entry that was confined to two bands. All two-band entries
compete together by power level regardless of the bands picked. No
band-change restrictions between the two bands.

Picking the two best bands with night/day, propagation, equipment, all
to maximize score will tax operator knowledge and skill. Or operate
what your circumstances allow you.

73, Guy.

I'd like to second that idea also!  During the day, contests are
a lot of fun from the west coast, but after dark things get
pretty slow for us "vertical and low dipole" crowd.  On Friday
night, it is not worth while trying to beat out the "big guns" on
the 40 and 80 meter pileups.  The incessant calling and calling
(meat for another time) on low bands makes it impossible to work
any dx from the west coast with a small station.  The endless run
of JA's that used to make it exciting just doesn't happen any
more.  Having a low band-high band category makes good sense.  73

Our Alpha 87 manual appears to be among the "lost, strayed,  or stolen" 
category.

Does anyone have a suggestion of how we can get a replacement manual?

Actually all we really need at the moment is the section that describes the 
procedure for setting up the "Bandpass" L/C circuits.  Most of the time it 
has been used in the "Manual" mode, but it seems a good time to check the 
settings for the "Bandpass" mode in case we need to use this feature.

Thanks,

I've just got to throw my "two cents" into this one. 

The Hi/Lo Band idea is one whose time has definitely (re) arrived..

For many of us time and circumstances have conspired to make the SO/AB
catagory no longer a practical option.  Some contesters elect, as I often
do, to settle for a SO/SB which can be fun ... up to a point.  I've often
simply operated just the Hi-Bands and submitted the log in the AB
catagory.  In one instance I chose the Tribander/Wires catagory with zero
Qs on the wires.  A bit silly, but it was an option.  (Actually my 15 M
SO/SB score would have earned me a higher place finish ... but it didn't
really matter as I had a real blast that weekend.)

If the contest sponsors do no more than allow the Hi/Lo band catagories
to be designated in the listinigs (published or Web) I think it would be
fun to see how things stack up amongst those who chose this approach.  

Give the plaques and praise to the SO/AB winners, they certainly deserve
them.  But let the rest of us have some fun in our own arena.

Nuff said ...

Joe, W5ASP

I have been assigned a few hours of FD operating
on VHF/UHF, an area in which I don't have any
experience. What are some good techniques?

We will have several rigs, 6 thru 440, SSB and CW,

clear over-ocean path all the way up to Santa

I have 38 YU7SF contest qsos in my logging program just since 1990, and I'll
bet there'd be twice as many as that counting YU1SF qsos going back to the
early 1970s.  I don't remember any big scores from him, but he'd be there to
call me in EVERY contest.  We never said anything more than contest
exchanges, but he was a contest fixture.  I remember he always noted the
number of total contests he had participated in on his QSLs, and I think his
WAE soapbox indicated he had participated in something like 35 straight WAE
contests.  RIP Laci...

My contest logs since only 1998 have 21 entries for YU7SF, and his 
call was always instantly recogisable. The last QSO was in the 
Baltic contest on the 19th May this year.

Field Day software.

The WASH club ended up using the Network version of N3FJP's free FD package.
I've got to admit to being impressed.  The networking was smooth as silk,
the software was extremely easy & intuitive to use, and it made CW solo
operating & logging a breeze.

A lot of people in the club were surprised that it was that good a package
for a free download, and several are going to recommend that we go ahead and
register it.  Just wait till they see how low the registration fee is...

If some of his other offerings are this good or better, I may just drop CT
as my contest logger of choice since I bought 6.13 at Dayton many, many,
many moons ago!

Can anyone tell me the correct BAND to show for AO-40 Q's during Field Day?

I believe the uplink was 2.4GHz, and I think the downlink was either 2M or

The "official" ARRL Summary sheet shows it listed as "Satellite".

(TIP: Use the ARRL Summary form and mail it in ... that way you're sure
all the required information is filled in.)

Tom-
The CORRECT band to show satellites contacts on is SAT. However, if your
program does not have that (like ours- WL, or older versions of NA) then log
the satellite Q's on any band- or the TX freq - or a band that didn't have
any other Q's. We logged them on 220. Then make a note to the sponsor and
log checker as to what you have done.
The important thing is that they are identitied as SATELLITE contacts.
GL to you guys. We haven't talleyed our score yet, but it should be close to
our score from last year. Bet we are in a horse race for MO state honors.

P.S. on Friday May 31, I dropped off 20 pounds (9 Kg) of QSL cards at the ARRL

The correct band would be Satellite. Otherwise I would assume it to be your
recieved freq. My reasoning would be that is where you copied the
exchange. Just like in a split op on HF, the DX tx freq is the one that goes on
the QSL card not your tx freq. (Downlink is 70cm)

Just one man's opinion, I could be wrong.

My favorite is "Thanks for Nevada, that's a new one."

The best on-site event happened to me a few years ago. I was coaching a new 
general at his first FD and first time on HF. I went through the logging, 
exchange, etc, and demonstrated a few QSO's. I turned the rig over to him and 
went to the rest room. When I returned he hadn't made a single QSO. I asked 
what the problem was. He said he couldn't tune anyone in. Puzzled, I asked 
for an example. He set the dial, as you would on a VHF radio, to an even 
frequency, like 144.940. The only problem was that there was no one zero beat 
on 14.280 or 14.290, so he couldn't work anyone. 

But then, FD is where many of us learned the inside skinny about hamming.

Put the lime in the cocoanut..............

I feel your pain. I heard the same thing. I also heard one of our ops S&Ping
with the last three letters of the club call. I thought I would try and take
a stab at changing their operating habits, but when I asked, "Do you operate
HF much?", one said "not at all," so I didn't bother. I think these guys
must be having fun otherwise, why would they come out, but it sure is hard
to be in the concert hall when most of the piano players seem to be playing
with their feet. Maybe I should be more forthright in trying to "correct"
them, but I just can't seem to bring myself to do it so I just sit by and
bite my tongue.

I don't think that "forthright correcting" is what is needed.  A "kinder,
gentler" approach is what's needed.

Those of us who can operate, need to demonstrate the proper way to operate,
so that these newbies can learn from it and hopefully emulate what they've
seen.

It seems that many of them are intrigued by the process of running stations,
even on CW, when they may not be able to copy themselves.

Let's face it, when their shack is on their belt, they don't get any
experience or training on how to work stations quickly and efficiently.

A couple of years ago, I stopped by a local Field Day set up at a very
visible public park.  They were set up in a large pavilion with antennas
hanging all around.  There were large signs, lots of literature for visitors
to pick up, and people hanging around, ready to talk to visitors.   They had
two stations.  One was empty, the other was manned by one person, with a
crowd gathered around watching him.  I watched for about 15 minutes while he
tuned around and worked no one!  Do you think this was exciting to visitors?
I think not.  I didn't know any of these folks so I just left, but they
obviously had no clue what to do on the air.

We also need to remember that those we're working at the other end of the
path may be equally challenged and need encouragement, rather than
criticism.

We have a pre-FD meeting about 2-3 days before the weekend. At that time, 
we try to give any new ops, or any old ops who still persist, 'suggestions' 
on what to say and what NOT to say... with particular attention to what NOT 
to say. For the most part, it seems to work pretty well, though some will 
revert, regardless of what they know is right.

Of course, we Do have to remember that this is a TRAINING EXERCISE and not 
a contest, so should be willing to 1) cut everyone some slack, and 2) 
attempt to further "suggest" possibly better (e.g. more 
appropriate/efficient) methods of getting the information passed without 
unnecessary verbiage. But I don't necessarily think that it's all that 
appropriate to correct them WHILE they're on the air (unless they wish to 
be), and often in front of a number of their friends. Doing so can often 
cause you to lost an otherwise good operator.

Don't forget the 20M op who never makes a Q because he can't "find a clear 
spot".

Why?

That's one of the things about Field Day ... to teach these folks proper
operating procedures!  If we want to build the contest ranks, we
contesters must be the ones to pass along what we know to those who show
any kind of interest.  If we don't take the time to teach proper
operating procedures, we can't turn around and complain about poor
operating procedures.  

Our Field Day set-up included the new "GOTA" station ... which had none
other than K1TO teaching the newbies proper operating procedures!  If
you're going to learn, it might as well be from one of the best.

That's what Field Day is all about.

In past years when this has happened to me, for fun I'd sometimes say 
something like:

"OK W7ABC 1A Georgia"
"2A Washington"
"W7ABC Thanks QRZ Field Day K7AW"

And take the frequency.  

Mean, I know.    :)

Partly because I'm lazy, mostly because, these aren't a bunch of 12 year old
kids. As a matter of fact, at the ripe old age of 43 I was the youngest guy
out.

>I know, I know: It's not a contest.

I have NEVER understood this timeless Newington pronouncement.  Somebody
show me why accuracy and efficiency should not be rewarded, especially
during an Emergency Preparedness Exercise.

I know I'm preaching to the choir.

My only guess is that it is an attempt to "not turn away the curious
newcomer."  But what does that tell us about our image to the others?
Perception is everything whether based in reality or not.  We can't ignore
this, and my guess is a substantial investment in this area by contesters
would yield an excellent return.

I think having Dennis in the Marketing chair at the ARRL could be a good
turn for contesting, but not if we sit around and watch.

Well, unless you're about to strangle the guy in the tent with his own mic
cord if says "please copy, you're..." one more time.  Better for contesting
if you just keep THAT to yourself  :)

Just more reasons to stick with CW and forget that SSB stuff.

Then again, I copied some really weird code this weekend.

Message-ID: <200206251540.g5PFe0Tf019363@rm-rstar.sfu.ca>

I was recently introduced to Beaconsee and at one station where
I would like to use it, relying on the internet for clock
syncronization is not realistic. Does anyone know of a
cost effective means of doing this? I have been looking
for an "atomic clock" which connects to the computer,
similar to an alarm clock I have, but so far I have
not found one. One product I found that uses satellites
costs around $500, which is out of the question.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

And you're exactly right.  If it's promoted as a contest - even lightly -
we'll lose a lot of folks that just don't want to be or think they can be
"competitive".  Without getting into the psychology of it all, I think the
contest community's best return on time invested would be to...

1) Be there at Field Day and teach, teach, teach...
2) Suggest a Field Day challenge of another local club - say CW-against-CW
or something like that so it doesn't require that all operators be fully
committed to compete.
3) Right after Field Day, when everybody is still full of good memories,
suggest some kind of Sweepstakes "event" within the club for making, say,
100 QSOs or working 70 sections.  Challenge another local club in some way.
4) Remind folks about the easy-going, friendly August NAQP (or whatever the
equivalent is in your QTH)
5) Pounce on the guys that are having the best time and organize a low-key
multi-op for WW or something.

Field Day is mostly a competition between one's own group, Mother Nature,
and the Forces of Murphy.  For those of us that take it to the next level,
we can do that, too.  It would be a good idea to add to the Field Day write
up - in the spirit of enhancing contest coverage in QST without adding
pages - commentary to the effect of, "If you enjoyed the freewheeling
hurly-burly of Field Day, try entering the following events..."

......AA4GA says..

"OK W7ABC 1A Georgia"
"2A Washington"
"W7ABC Thanks QRZ Field Day K7AW"

And take the frequency.  

Mean, I know.    :)

K3FT opines..

Mean? NO WAY!  It's all part of the game. If
another op gives the opening because they are
unaware of a technique.. then it's fair game to
take and go! It's part of learning. 

They will wonder 'what happened?' (maybe!) and
that might provoke them to learn something.

It is like any other effort. If you play a sport
and the other team is short of info on a proper
technique to play and you see the advantage and
take it.. well... life is...'

One thing about 'real life on the air contesting'
it plays no favorites and gives no quarter. It's
equitable.. and all can learn the tricks and
tips.

K5ZM (at K7AW) said he heard:

>"CQ Field Day, W7ABC..."
>
>"K7AW.."
>
>"K7AW, go ahead.." (??!!)

And it's not just FD.

There is a prominent local W1-area VHF/UHF college club station that operates
exactly
this way during VHF contests (at least the two in which I have operated and
listened to them...and sometimes they even omit the "go ahead" part). That is,
when they can actually hear any of the stations calling them, since turning a
beam occasionally also seems to be outside their skill set. I won't mention
the station specifically, but it is located at a famous Institute of
Technology in Massachusetts. Some operators/stations are just painful to
listen to.

But once in a while, a good op shows up at the local club FD site. The most
important lesson in contest operating I *ever* learned was on FD, when I took
over from the club hotshot on 40SSB, and was incredibly tense and nervous. I
starting talking so fast nobody could understand me, got all worked up when I
couldn't copy a guy calling me or if two guys called at once. The club
hotshot, Howie Gould, then K1HHN, now W9HG, tapped me on the shoulder and said
"Come on now, take a deep breath and relax. Don't get so worked up. This is
supposed to be fun, right? So have fun!". 

That was in 1969 I think.

And I'm still having fun. Thanks, Howie.

Speaking of which, I think I heard more bugs and Lake Erie swings over

Thanks for the replies to my previous message, but I guess
the title I chose did not convey the idea I wanted.

I am looking for a means of syncronizing the computer's
clock WITHOUT HAVING AN INTERNET CONNECTION.

I am aware of some of the software that will do it
via the internet, but in the particular situation I
have in mind, using the internet is not an option.

Any thoughts???

Thanks again.

Check out this web site:

  http://www.radiocontrolledclock.com/

They sell clocks that sync off low-frequency transmissions of WWVB.  One model
has a serial port which can be used to synchornize your computer:

Less than $100

I, for one, am grateful for every contact I make during FD weekend with a 
new station or operator that might normally never get on during HF contest 
operations.

As I work the "inefficient ops", I make a point, not always, but often, of 
thanking them for the contact, wishing them a "good morning'" before I give 
the exchange, and even take a second to ask the op where the exact location 
and setup situation might be.

Adherence to ultra rate highly efficient contest QSO exchange format ? - 
not exactly.
Fun ? - yes.
Will it bring somebody new into a weekend chase ? - Hopefully.
Do I care at how inept the "other end" might be in the QSO exchange ? - Nope.

A conventional GPS that has a standard serial connection can furnish 
accurate time synch to the PC. Not sure what software is required, but I 
believe UI-View has it built-in. Maybe other products as well.

I was considering adding a cheap GPS to this computer for time synch, but 
then was able to hook it to my home network instead, so now it gets its 
time synch from the internet via freeware NetLab 1.4 instead. Back when I 
shopped, I found GPS refurbs as low as $50 (TripMate brand).

The very early computer clocks could be adjusted for drift. Don't know if 
any motherboards still offer that - maybe you could hack an outboard 
circuit to do it for your motherboard, then have the opsys reset the 
software clock from that periodically??

While we're on the subject, and understand I don't consider myself of
your cr?me de le cr?me contester types.  I do enjoy contesting and work
hard to get the rate up and keep it there... HOWEVER, most noticeable to
me during the just passed field day are the number of stations who call
a station running a frequency and immediately sending their report as
part of their initial call - even during a pileup.  So, in the middle of
our pileups, a station is trying hard to work us, but cannot seem to
wait until he knows we're calling him. This appears more pervasive and
critical than some simple grammar "you are" stuff.  If you're calling a
station, you best make darned sure he's talking to you before you send
your exchange. On a couple of occassions, stations that did that to
me... Often waited until they were the ONLY ones left trying to work me,
and then were told to "make sure I've got your callsign before you go
sending a report" That technique to me, is MUCH more important than "you
are blah blah."  I can ignore the grammar issue...  The other however is
annoying, and happens VERY too often.

And how many of us (myself included) actually sent the report correctly
each time? 

(using N0SS since he can take it out on me personally if he so desires!)

KC0CZI QRZ FIELD DAY
N0SS
N0SS DE KC0CZI 2A MO 
KC0CZI DE N0SS 2A MO 


Suffix-only dropping is also pervasive and annoying.  That isn't a
callsign.  What's your FULL callsign?  Surely you guys realize how
annoying it is to have to back up in your logging software and fix the
call.

And what about stations that REFUSE to use phonetics even when asked...
Can't begin to tell you how many times that happened this past weekend.

All in all however - those issues are good for receivers to deal with as
prepping them for real disasters when calling stations will not follow
your requested formatics.

However, I totally realize that this is NOT a contest... The desire to
get and maintain a high-rate is more as a training and exercise in
technique to ensure that operators are efficient handling messages
rapidly (in whatever method works best), though formatted exchanges go a
LONG way to conditioning that listening to only expect certain things...
In a real disaster, there wouldn't be any pre-conditioned formattics
(especially in a tactical environment).  But, again, it's not a contest
-  it's a disaster preparedness exercise.  Again - our primary interest
in ALL of this is to GET THE MESSAGE THROUGH.  For Field Day.. I tend to
make some exceptions, and remember them as training points later.

Of more interest to me... How many of your clubs actually treated your
setup and/or tear down as a disaster response?  I suspect not nearly
enough.

Once again, I find myself essentially in-tune with what Bob, and some
others, have written.

Instead of ridiculing our FD brethren, they need to be encouraged, and shown
HOW to do it.  We all had to start some-time, some-how,  and I wonder how
many of us would like to hear recordings of our first ever QSO's, contest or
not..............?

Sadly, in the collective, we have managed to leave a pathetic legacy of HOW
NOT TO OPERATE for all the world to hear, and emulate.

WHERE do these gentlemen learn the "please copy"?  NETS and LISTS, of
course.  Wonderful examples of how not to operate......

WHERE do these gentlemen learn that you don't even have to know the other
station's call, before calling?  PACKET, of course.
Perhaps the ULTIMATE example of non-operating.

We have met the enemy, and it is us.

Operating a casual 1B this happened to me several times.  This actually
turns the frequency over to me.  I send 1B Georgia and W7ABC comes back with
2A Washington.  Its also slows things down.

I also noted extra comments (such as North Carolina sure beats Georgia).
Several also told me "when last heard" but since a report is not needed I
can't figure out why this is said.

Regarding the phrase "please copy" I hear this now in local traffic
handling.   As an old hand (years ago ) of the National Trafiic System
(local, TCC,  and both RN5 and 4RN) this must be a new technique.  I hope
ARES does not teach this and I am asking the Georgia SM about this.  Its
extra words that aren't needed whether a contest or an emergency test
exercise.

I did note some excellent operators even among the young and the YL's
recruited to bring in contacts.
K1AR's first contacts were at a field day before he was first licensed (in
the July Contest Column in CQ)...bet there are a lot of us out there!

With all due apologies to Jim's very insightful post, it is NOT us.
That "please copy" can probably be traced to less than 50 hams in the
US, operating with greatly exaggerated opinions of themselves.

I remember checking into the 20 Meter county hunters net as I was
leaving Church, and thought I would drive north to hand out a few
relatively rare ones for GA. Apparently, the MC, a K2, had announced
some time
before not to use phonetics, and I was soundly chastised. I replied to
him that our minister, as a general rule, did not allow pickups in the
sanctuary, and that he could "kiss my ass"!

In this case, a virus which has infected 10s of thousands.

Dxpeditions are another cause. When they ask for "last 2", do what
9K2ZZ does. LOG them as such. His mgr. has explicit instructions to
reject any QSL logged with a 2 letter call, and to put such on the
original QSL with a note to that effect!

It's not us, but until we have the guts to openly criticize and inform
a newcomer for such, we share the blame.

1) Smart band map (similar or better then in TRlog)
2) Fully user configurable
3) Possibility to add tests with non standard rules and point and multipler
systems
5) CW and RTTY sending and  receiving
6) Support of all the types and brands of radios
7) Must be able to control antenna switch, linear amp, rotator
8) Build in Digital voice keyer
9) Ability to record audio of the entire contest with time stamps
10) Full support of M/S and M/M (things like passing mult from band to band,
keeping logs on different computer of the network in sync, provision of tx
inhibit on all the other trcvrs when one of them is in TX mode fo M/S etc)
11) On the fly and post contest analyses of band changes, rate by hours,
calls continental distribution ets (see post utility in TRlog)
12) Super check partial and other user database support
13) should be very fast even with several comps in the network and few
thousand QSO in the log
14)Should run across the range of platforms (Win95/98/NT/2000/XP )
15) should be reasonable in hardware requirements (should run on
Pentium90/133 with 16Mg of RAM)
I could go on an on but will better stop here :)

Every contester has a different idea of what the "ideal" should
be.  There is no single contest logger that is best in all
respects - any more than there is a single best antenna or best
rig.

If you're serious about writing a contest logger, then just do
it - and start by including the features and the contests that you
yourself prefer.  It'll take longer than you think, and it may be
even longer before before anyone will buy the software.  When they
do, however, you'll soon get all the feedback you need.  If the
software is free, on the other hand, some potential users may feel
you're not fully commited to the project.

Hallo Paul,

here in Europe we can use the DCF-77 transmitter nr Frankfurt
on 77,5 kHz or MSF in England on 60 kHz to do that.

You will need a software that can decode the time signals
and then set the PC clock. SpecLab by DL4YHF 
(see www.qsl.net/dl4yhf) does is.

However.. I am not sure if you can receive DCF-77 or
MSF in North America.

Thanks for the replies to my previous message, but I guess

I am looking for a means of syncronizing the computer's
clock WITHOUT HAVING AN INTERNET CONNECTION.

I am aware of some of the software that will do it

Any thoughts???

Thanks again.

Until those that feel they are prepared for disaster communications are
ready to admit that they aren't, all of the training in the world will not
have any success, because "they" won't attend?

IMHO, Field Day should be a "social event" with some directed interest

demonstrate this ability to the public. The "real" emergency agencies are
already aware of whom they can "count on" in a "real" emergency!

Hi Paul,

No problem.  All you need is a GPS that outputs NEMA
sentences (most do) with an RS-232 cable.  Then, go to
http://www.kaska.demon.co.uk/tardis.htm and download
Tardis 200, a shareware atomic clock program that works
with Internet sources, or a GPS that outputs NEMA sentences.

I used it during the VHF contest (from a mountaintop w/no internet)
for syncing JT44, and it gave me 0.127 second accuracy!  Not too bad.

I talked with Georgia ARES/NTS personnel and the phrase "please copy" did
not come from them.
They all noticed this too.

The ball is in out court as contesters to get to the clubs and help them
train their operators in good techniques.   Most of the field day operators
are not contesters and welcome advice as they want to improve the club
score.   I told the SEC that even a slow op could add 5 or 10 QSO's per hour
if they followed good procedures.   I was told that many of the young
operators were given a script to follow
in making QSOs.   One YL (she is now a General) at a local club made over
500 SSB QSOs following a script last year.

Field Day is a great opportunity for contesters to make an impact and train
new contesters.  Its a big weekend for many clubs.   You might even learn
something!

For what little I'm sure it'll be worth... Even though my operation has 
been 95% CW, I began operating in sectional phone nets in about 1959, 
though it wasn't until probably 1965 or so that I began hearing "Please 
copy" used by some operators. By the late '60s it was quite a bit more 
prominent (at least in the Midwest). I believe it's still seen regularly on 
a number of phone nets... usually local or sectional, rather than regional 
or larger.

Granted, it's not good operating procedure, but it IS something many ops 
have grown up with and will continue to do so until those who use it stop 
doing so.

I think, for many people, the "please copy" acts as an instinctive "bridge"
between the callsign and the report in a situation where a signal report is not
required. We are used to giving a "59" before the required exchange, and when we
can't start the exchange with the standard "59", we want to replace it with
something else.

You rarely hear "please copy" in ARRL DX or CQ WPX etc., where the report starts
with a signal report...

I catch myself somethimes wanting to say it as well, just to smooth out the
verbage in the report...I'm no linguist, but it seems to flow better...Whether
it be "please copy" or "your" or "good morning, your" or whatever...It also
seems a little more friendly...It's been going on for years...I remember my
first Field Day in 1975, one of the old timers said it in every QSO...That still
sticks in my head and is the reason the phrase still comes to my mind when
giving a SSB report in Field Day...Must have been more prevalent back then ?? I
don't know...I stuck to CW this year.......

73, and hope to see you in the RAC Canada Day Contest July 1st 0000z-2359z
(where a signal report IS required, so I'll be testing out my theory!!)

For a wireless solution using GPS satellites, look at TAPR's
Most Accurate Clock (TOC).  This is a really neat piece of equipment.

Message-ID: <B4965255B95AD41185EE00D0B74791F2043C120F@axatl03.cos.agilent.com>

I have poked fun at myself for years for using "Please copy" in contests. I 
know I shouldn't, but I can't help myself. I think it goes back to my 
hometraining; I can still hear my mother telling me to say "Please," and "Thank 
you," for practically every social situation.

But really, "Please copy" is so much more friendly, more social, and, more 
importantly, a more effective attention-getting signal than an abrupt 
"Thirty-seven alpha Sacramento Valley." What, no "QSL", no "Roger", not even a 
"Thanks" preceding the exchange? "Please copy" is a very efficient way of 
saying, "Pick up your pencil and turn on the DSP or whatever you have to do; 
here comes my exchange. You ready?"

I have resisted the pressure to become less human and more robotic, especially 
during Field Day when new hams and the public are listening in such greater 
numbers than during any other time. "Please copy" is my little tiny way of 
making the scary a little bit less scary.

After September 11, a lot was written in the press about how people had become, 
at least for the moment, a little bit nicer to each other in the enormity and 
the shock of what had happened, not only in New York, but everywhere else in 
the country. People honked their horns just a little bit less, and said "Hello" 
just a little bit more. In a real real, you know, nationwide emergency, I bet 
you that hearing an occasional "Please copy" is going to give you a slightly 
more reassuring feeling as you pass traffic that is largely depressing and 
terrifying.

You guys sometimes make a mountain out of a molehill!

W6LX said that.

Scott Nichols sagely noted that....
"I think, for many people, the "please copy" acts
as an instinctive "bridge"...." and also noted 
"..It also seems a little more friendly..."

K3FT opined.. What I learned from chatting with
the pros in this world is that even though the
guiding rule is 'A-B-C' (Accuracy, Brevity,
Clarity) when transmitting traffic, the all
important, yet intangible 'human factor' must be
considered.  

The insertion of the 'Please Copy...' prior to
the start of the message (on voice circuits)
helps to impart a small but valuable bit of 'the
personal touch' in the mix.

Another purpose is to give the recieving
operators mind a chance to 'lock in' and be
absolutely ready to copy what follows. Even
though you know that the other guy is ready
because he responsded 'K3FT send your traffic'
and you start transmitting.. a 'Please copy...'
before the 'number xxx...' and the rest of the
preamble simply gives him a 1/4 of  a second to
energize the brain/body to begin actually
writing/typing.  The slight delay allows him to
move from the act of transmiting 'K3FT, Send your
traffic', put down the mic, ready his
pencil/fingers, and be absolutely ready to copy
whatever you send next. 

Regardless of how good you are, there is ALWAYS a
slight delay from the time you stop transmitting
your readiness to receive and  your full
readiness to copy. The 'Please copy' allows the
human factor of a pleasantry to occur while
providing that needed delay so the reciever can
be assured of having all in place to copy.

That is all it really is. What I was taught is we
strive for 'A-B-C' but maintaining a small bit of
'human pleasantry' in the mix is OK.

"Please copy" is probably the littlest, most insignificant of our fish to
fry.  It is hardly more of a vermiform appendix than our own repetitive and
useless "599".  If we decide to beat the newbies up for a transgression on
this level, it will hardly be a wonder if they decide to take their ham
radio minutes elsewhere.

Eu Sprint - Spring 2002 
Rules and All Time Records can be seen at <http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.

Dear OM, 
Here are the results of the first two EU Sprint contests of 2002. 
The winners of the first two sprints of the year are Timo, OH1NOA 
(operating as OH1F), and Dave, G4BUO.

SSB. Timo achieved the fourth highest SSB score ever and the second 
highest score of all time on 20m. During the SSB Sprint 20 was the best 
band and most entrants made great scores on this band. Second place 
went to Peter, YL7A. He beat OH1F on both 40 and 80 but Timo's 102 QSOs 
on 20 made the difference. Third place goes to Ran, UW5Q. Thirteen 
station made more than 150 valid QSOs and this includes some new faces, 
which is a good sign!

CW. Dave, G4BUO, won his second CW Sprint and - for the first time - the 
three highest scores are all from the same country: England. Second place 
goes to Steve, G0CKP, and third belongs to Andy, G4PIQ/P. Conditions were 
not so good as during the SSB leg on the previous weekend. 20m was still 
the best band but QSO numbers were much lower.

2002 Eu Sprint Plaques. Please remember that each country winner will 
receive a colourful certificate but - at the end of the year - the big prizes
will go 
to the three highest combined scores. To qualify you must have entered at least

three of the four European Sprint contests in 2002.

Autumn 2002. Please remember that the next two events will take place in 
October as follows: 
SSB: first Saturday in October - 5 October 2002 - managed by I2UIY 
CW: second Saturday in October - 12 October 2002 - managed by OK2FD 
Rules and All Time Records can be seen at <http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.

Finally, we were very sorry to hear of the passing of Laci, YU7SF. He was a
great supporter of all contests including the Sprints and we will all miss his
callsign in future events.

EU SPRINT 2002
In 1994 the EU Sprint Gang (I2UIY, OK2FD, DL6RAI, and G4BUO) organized  the 
first European Sprint contests. For 2001 there have been some rule changes, 
introducing an awards programme and bringing the Spring Sprints forward  in 
the  calendar.  You can find past scores and other  information  about  the 
sprints  by  visiting  the official EU Sprint web  site  at  this  address: 
<http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.
The BIG news is that now we will award a certificate to the winners in each 
country but this is not all. Three nice plaques will be awarded for the top 
three scores from all four contests combined. Therefore, please red  circle 
the  four EU Sprint saturdays on your calendar, we will be looking for  you 
starting October 5!

EU SPRINT 2002
The  EU Sprint Gang hereby invites you to participate in the two  European 
Sprint Contests held in Autumn 2002.

ENTRANTS: any licensed station may enter the Sprint. European stations  can 
work everybody; stations outside of Europe can work only European stations.
CATEGORIES: Single Operator ONLY. Only ONE signal may be aired at one time.
DATES:
EU SPRINT Autumn:
  * SSB: first Saturday in October - 5 October 2002 - managed by I2UIY
  * CW: second Saturday in October - 12 October 2002 - managed by OK2FD
TIME: from 15:00 UTC until 18:59 UTC.
BANDS: 20, 40 and 80 metres only. 
Pilot frequencies are: SSB: 14.250, 7.050, 3.730. CW: 14.040, 7.025, 3.550
EXCHANGE: all of the following data MUST BE PART OF THE EXCHANGE: 
  a) your callsign, 
  b) the other station's callsign,
  c) your serial number starting from 001 (RST not required),
  d) your name or nickname.
Please  note  that  BOTH stations MUST repeat  BOTH  callsigns  DURING  the 
exchange. 
A valid exchange is: "OK2FD de I2UIY 118 Paolo" while "OK2FD 118 Paolo"  is 
NOT a valid exchange.
SPECIAL  QSY  RULE: if any station initiates a call (by sending  CQ,  QRZ?, 
etc.),  he is permitted to work ONLY one station on the same frequency.  He 
must  thereafter  move  AT LEAST 2 (two) kHz before  he  may  call  another 
station or before he may solicit again (CQ, QRZ?, etc.) other calls.
VALID  CONTACTS:  valid contacts are QSOs correctly logged  and  confirmed. 
Each  operator  may  use ONE and ONLY one name during the  Sprint.  If  the 
exchange is copied incorrectly, that operator will receive zero (0) points. 
In case of miscopied callsigns, both stations will receive zero (0)  points 
for that QSO.
SCORING:  each valid QSO counts one 1 (one) point. The final score  is  the 
total number of QSOs.
AWARDS: Colorful certificates will be issued to the winners of each Sprint, 
and  to the leaders in each country. A special plaque will also be  awarded 
for  the top three scores from all four contests combined. To  be  eligible 
for this award an operator must enter at least three of the Sprints in  the 
year.  Results will be forwarded as soon as possible to Leagues,  magazines 
and bulletins.
LOGS:  a single chronological log is required. Please send us your log  via 
email or on a floppy disk, if you use computer for logging. Use any of  the 
available software or send a plain ASCII file. A separate summary sheet  is 
also  required. Please send us the right files: for DL2NBU  software,  send 
yourcall.ASC;  for N6TR software, send yourcall.DAT; for  IK4EWK  software, 
send yourcall.DBF. 
If you want the latest release of the DL2NBU software, you can download it 
from the EU Sprint web site: <http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>. 
Log files must be sent NO LATER than 15 days after the contest to:

Sweepstakes is a contest where the "you're" is kind of an intro to the
serial number, "You're number 123 Bravo", etc. and actually makes sense - if
that really matters.

I don't see the big deal.  The rate is generally slow for one thing and I'd
rather see many of the other non-contester-isms mentioned in these threads
dealt with before we worry about the "you're".  I would agree that a
newcomer should not be "taught" to use the phrase, but trying to rid an old
timer of it is a waste of time.  Besides, what would FD be without some
Lid-isms?

Is this all we have to complain about? ;-)

Gentlemen,

we finished K1Baker QSL printing today, and filling process started
immediately.
Some of you will get lucky and confirm the QSO(s) in F-hafen, and some
others in F-inland, since Hrane will bring small quantity along.

Your QSL requests should be sent to Roman RZ3AA for SSB, and YT1AD for other
modes.

Hi Lou:

Nothing whatsoever.

However, when you are in a real emergency situation, the less unnecessary 
verbiage the better. You want to get the important information passed 
without any extraneous traffic.

Hi,

I guess this whole thread is preaching to the converted. I don't imagine too
many ops who aren't at least casual contesters subscribe, so I'm not sure
what the point of the thread is.

Be that as it may...

So that my message doesn't further preach, here's my suggestion: why don't
we keep a list of contesters willing to hold seminars for clubs about
operating techniques for Field Day.

The ARRL/RAC organizations can distribute through the affiliated club system
a notice of our intent along with an invitation to contact the keeper of
said list for a referral to a volunteer contester in or near their area. If
someone could donate a small bit of server space, we could even
semi-automate the function. Perhaps its something that could go on the, oh,
just for the sake of argument, ARRL servers. This list may need to be broken
down into regions: if so, I volunteer to keep list for Canada.

Perhaps someone could even convince, horror of horrors, QST to print in May
QST a primer on contesting -- oops, sorry, operating -- for Field Day. I'll
be sending an e-mail to that effect to N1BKE shortly.

We know all this stuff, so it doesn't help to rant about it here. It won't
help to put it into NCJ, either. Sorry to break with tradition in trying to
offer a HELPFUL suggestion   ;=)   but I think it's something worthwhile,
particularly if we want to try and siphon off some FD enthusiasm into
contesting.

C'mon guys. The "please copy" issue is a metaphor for the learning curve we 
all have gone through. I can't believe you are having a literal debate over 
it. 

It is prevalent in FD because we are doing what Elmer's should do, teach our 
operating skills and values to the newcomers.  Sometimes it is most effective 
by direct instruction. Sometimes by demonstration and example. Yes, sometimes 
through humor and trial by fire.

I wasn't able to go to FD last weekend, but I got on and made a few hundred 
QSO's, taking the time to politely correct the uneducated, make suggestions 
of technique to the unskilled and having the patience to work someone calling 
endlessly or out of turn. That's why it is not a contest, but an operating 
event.

Get a grip. This is supposed to be fun.

Tom, K5RC

Message-ID: <4.3.2.7.0.20020626224526.01d69ed0@pop.pacific.net.hk>

VA7NT needs to accurately set a computer's clock without resorting to
the Internet.

At VR2BG, the radio computer is a dedicated DOS machine, with no
connection to the outside world other than a floppy drive & serial port
connection to another machine with a 10+ year old copy of LapLink.

An equally retro approach to setting the radio computer's clock is used -
a wristwatch.  I set the watch at work from time to time & know it's well
within a second for the next week or so.  When I forget to do so before
the weekend, there is always JJY, BPM & (if the band is open)
WWV/WWVH to fall back on.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] July QST and CQ cover arrive
Message-ID: <7a.28ed8f34.2a4bcc61@aol.com>

Having been out of town on a business trip for over a week, the PO box was 
stuffed with goodies - QST, CQ, fishing magazines, etc.  The latest issue of 
QST was in pristine condition while all I found of CQ was the cover pages 
with several rips and tears.  Those staples through the thin cover material 
just does not stand up to the rigors of today's Postal Service employee 
handling.  Please bring back the days of plastic bags or brown paper 
wrappers!  Although I get my share of ripped and torn magazine covers, this 
is the first time I can remember not getting the whole magazine in some form. 
 

So, for CQ, all I can tell you is what is on the front cover:

Photo of W7HUY on his tower with an inset close-up of him strapped-on and 
waving.

Caption is: "Antenna Special!" 

In This Issue - Cautions on Side Arms & Mobile Mounts; Results, 2001 CQ/RJ WW

I agree with Jim.  Any time you exchange non-essential
information it would be better to call a spade a spade.
Replace all non-essential information with the words:
"delay delay delay" and your contesting will slowly
improve as you begin to tire of saying "delay delay delay".

Message-ID: <012801c21d97$35b95200$48bb180a@9byjx01>

Quick glance at the logs submitted so far show that less than 2% of 
entrants into the CQ WPX CW contest were "rookies" which 
CQ defines as licensed less than 3 years (S/O category only). 

22 scores out of approx 1,221. Now the deadline for submission 
is July 1st, so that might be somewhat of a factor. 

But the question is "Where are all the rookies?" 
Maybe better yet "Where are all the coaches for possible rookies?" 

Some food for thought and discussion now that Field Day is over. 

Best of health to all, 
Eric K9GY

Subject: [CQ-Contest] WRTC is indeed upon us!  Some thoughts on a contender
Message-ID: <016b01c21da7$30871be0$62f1a118@tampabay.rr.com>

Tnx K1DG for doing some WRTC/Radiosport marketing - as all who follow this
reflector know I took a vow of silence as far as operating event promotion
is considered until it is time for me to promote the FQP next Spring - by
the way did you see how many guys have....ooops, BAD OJ - NO ORANGE!


The WRTC is something indeed special and I am sorry to once again miss
attending it - it is a personal goal to attend one of them some day - I
would kind of like to cheer on my fellow Florida Contest Group members and
the other US teams.  The FCG offers defending co-champ K1TO and N2NL - who
is out to see if youth can overcome the keen minds (and crafty
competitiveness) of the WRTC's sages: two time champs K1TO and N5TJ - not to
mention a cast of other absolutely fantastic teams from around the world.

This past weekend was Field Day here in the states and one of the best parts
of the weekend for me was shaking the hands of K1TO and WC4E who were there
along with several other Florida Contest Group Members helping the local
Emergency Preparedness club who several of us contest guys have teamed up
with over the past few years.

I wished "Dahs" and "Dit" a safe and fun time in Europe...WC4E will be there
as a an adjudicator (that's judge for those in Rio Linda)

When I shook K1TO's, hand I wished him luck and I don't think I have ever
quite felt so motivated to do such - you see Dan is more than a contester,
he is a model ham.

I had just watched him spend most of his weekend Elmering new hams at the
Get On The Air station at our Field Day setup - the GOTA position is
intended to allow hams who do not have HF exposure to see what the
attraction is!  He spent hours mentoring newcomers - and he did it like a
parent teaching his children - not barking at them when they said "please
copy" and "thank you for 59 Colorado you are" - but subtly letting them know
that this was inefficient procedure, why not do this instead...you will make
more contacts!

Today I saw the first fallout of his weekend's investment in the future of
ham radio contesting - a husband and wife team that were mentored by Dan
this past weekend apparently had some real fun at Field Day...they have
since contacted the Florida Contest Group and applied for membership.

This past few years my health has gone downhill but when Dan heard I wanted
to get the multi-op in shape for the Fall '01 contest season his first words
were "HOW CAN I HELP?"  I am NOT alone, Dan has helped many club members
with antenna projects and in so doing forsaken his own station which has
been down for of a year from a major lightning strike.

No matter who wins in Finland I consider Dan to be the world's #1 contester.
I have known him since we were teenagers just getting the contest bug - and
I consider him one of my best friends.  Dan practices what a lot of us
preach - and he delivers....

I encourage hams who have not met Dan before to seek him out in OH - no, not
to get him drunk so he will have a hangover during the WRTC/Radiosport [he
will see you coming!], but to meet the man who I am proud to call my
friend...I have know him for almost 30 years now (ouch) and can tell you I
have been exposed to ham's and ham radio all of my life through my family
and have yet to find a better example of what a contester should be.  K1TO
doesn't just win when he is contesting he puts back into the hobby.

Many of the WRTC competitors I am certain are like Dan in many ways and in
this I am happy to say that yes, I am a contester...not as good as, but
still trying to be like my contesting friends, especially  K1TO.  We are a
vibrant community who often gets slammed but the fact that our scores
increase year after year indicates to me we are doing better at finding ways
to communicate with each other be it through better understanding of antenna
systems or mastering the elusive high end SO2R technique!

WRTC does us all proud - I know that the competitors will engage in the
highest level of competitive operating - including its ethics and morality!
Beside how can I not like a bunch of guys with OJ in their calls?


Good Luck Dan, that

Kid's One Terrific Operator

Go get  'em Samurai Dan!

Jim, K4OJ

....we need to work on that Kid part - anyone got Grecian Formulae? :-)

And a LOOONG series of V's before each CW contest Q should aid in the

Ward, You are absolutely right on.

It does not surprise me that others would rather have a worked station just 
"auto puke" the standard format exchange info.

Being able to Pavlovian keyboard enter a more properly spit out exchange 
info format,
in the exact sequence that it is to be entered into the computer log program,
so that editing or the tab key need never be bothered

Now that keeps it to a real test of communications skills.

This is already being done Jim. The preface is "5NN".

I fail to see why "please copy" is such a big deal. Maybe it is summertime

Message-ID: <NEBBIHDFILKFAICDBOGHCEBJDJAA.jljarvis@adelphia.net>

What an inane debate.  But then, FD always highlights the need
for operator training.

Clearly, when there is time available for social pleasantry,
it's appropriate.  Yet, "Please Copy" has a function.  It denotes 
the start of formal traffic.  By extension, it has been applied 
by some to contest exchanges.  So what?  Other than being slow,
does it matter?  

Clearly, it's more efficient to confirm the other stn's callsign 
instead, e.g.:  "k2bmi, 5a VT".   And the response?  "thanks, w1moo, FD"  
Note, the "thanks" pleasantry is also confirmation of receipt, and therefore 
procedural.  Repeating your callsign allows the other guy to confirm 
he got it right, at the same time as trolling for the next one.

If you want to look at efficient communications, monitor an
air traffic control net for a while.  Like perhaps NY Center,
or approach or departure control at any major metropolitan
airport.  Or be adventurous, and monitor Center, approach,
departure, tower AND ground, all at once.  

With 180 knot aircraft on approach moving at 3 mile separation or less, 
takeoffs and landings at 60 second intervals,  motion on the
ground gated in between--comm's are pretty much formatted, 
cut and dried, all business, with formal readback.  

And yet, in all but the busiest of times there's time for g'day, g'night, 
good flight, thank you sir, and see you later.  In lighter times 
you might even hear "nice day for flying, see you on the way back."  

At all but the largest and fastest of dxpeditions in peak times,
they put contesters to shame.  So what's all the blather about? 
Did anyone EVER see single station peak FD rates over 200/hour?   

Nice day for flying...OR radio.  Contact departure one two one point three, 
G'day.  (note, we don't need OVER...the courtesy is procedural.)

Jim, you forgot to include "when last heard"..

I am over 64, and while I am beginning to suffer some "senior

Nothing whatsoever.

However, when you are in a real emergency situation, the less unnecessary
verbiage the better. You want to get the important information passed
without any extraneous traffic.

...there is no question, especially on SSB, that there is some
"salesmanship" in making QSOs with non-contesters...K4XS's "anyone anywhere"
comes to mind....but....if you are truly running 'em I believe you should
NOT use extraneous verbiage - bottom line it lowers the efficiency of BOTH
the sending and receiving station.  Save the fluff for the QSL message -
instead of "QSL QRZed" a "thanks QSL QRZed" is about all that should be
needed UNLESS as I mentioned before you are in "contest enlightenment mode"
and trolling for newbies on the top end of 10 meters!

It appears that there was some problem with the Cabrillo Robots at the ARRL.
As it turns out, my 160 score was omitted from the Club Competition results.
As it turns out, the problem did not affect the standings but illustrates
one of the benefits to on-line results.

Corrected results:

#5  South East Contest Club        1,284,294  14 entries
#6  Minnesota Wireless Assn       1,096,363  24  + 92,340 = 1,188,703  25

My score was 92,340.  Unless there are other mistakes in the Club
scores, my score matters not to the MWA.......

Are there any good books, FAQ's, etc. on contest practice & etiquette

There are some books around, but the best way is to listen and emulate the
technique of those who do it right.

Listen on the air to many of the guys who are commenting about this here.
Find them on the air, work them (if appropriate for the particular contest),
then sit back and listen how it's done.

You won't learn anything by transmitting.

Is that really what you wanted to say? I see the 'please copy' thing as more of 
a style issue than an good operating issue or as N5NJ put it, the 'right' way 
of doing things.

I can certainly see room for a number of styles within the boundaries of the 
best contesting practices. Does saying something like 'please copy' put me into 
a second tier of contesters because of the 0.4 seconds it takes me to say that?

As for the indignant few who can't believe we're discussing this in the first 
place, Mr. Urban's questions prove that there is a need-- maybe it's a 
minority, but it's still a need-- to discuss anything and everything about 
contesting on this forum. As an aside, it has always amused me that there 
always seems to be a undercurrent of resentment every time certain threads get 
started. It seems like such a clich? to say this, but you know what key to hit 
when you see something you don't want to read, don't you?

Fair warning: In the next SS, I will be using my call, W6LX, and very likely I 
will at times slip up and say 'please copy' among various other niceties, 
exclamations, time-wasting utterances, and idiosyncracies. If you'd rather not 
have me waste your precious time and slow down your precious rate, please do 
not work me. I will probably make a total of about 400 contacts, and at 0.4 
seconds per contact, I'll live with the wasted 2 minutes 40 seconds of my life.

Well, with one computer set to local time, another computer on Linux, a
third computer with the wrong date, everyone trying to run CT in windoz, a
triband yagi with defective traps, a generator that required the press of a
button (located behind the panel) in addition to reseting the circuit
breaker to bring it back to life.....

I received an email from a brand spanking new - one week old licensed - ham:

    Really enjoyed my 1st field day and sure appreciated all of the support
    from the Scottsdale club.

    Also was nice to have some time to talk with you and pick your brain on
    some of the technical questions that I'm struggling with, particularly
    antennas.

    Went to FD without any idea what I would be doing. Then, the opportunity
    to observe some real CW work appealed to me. What a treat to have the
    chance to work alongside Chris and Ralph. Was even starting to pick up
    on some of the code by the end. I came home and pulled out my keyer and
    made the connector to the HF rig and am now ready to make my 1st CW
    contact. Well, after a bit more practice...

This is what it's all about!

You probably also say "number" before the contact number, don't you?

"Number" takes about 0.5 seconds at full speed, "please" copy takes
about 1.1 seconds at full speed.

Imagine, 2100 SS phone contacts means 3360 seconds -- almost an
hour of contesting -- just for YOU to say it.  And, your contact draws from
inference how fast he should send his exchange.  He will automatically
move at your rhythm.  This means that he'll slow down to your speed
and send "please copy number" himself.  That means you'll lose 2 hours
in an SS.

This piece talks a lot about how what seems like an insignificant amount of

A read of this piece years ago changed my operating style completely - I

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Harmonic stubs
Message-ID: <000901c21e4e$6da97660$d5fafea9@paulplay>

A couple of years ago I made 2nd harmonic coaxial shorting stubs for a
DXpedition using a noise bridge and what I think is conventional procedures.

We thought they worked great but when I actually had a chance to test their
performance with a near neighbor, I found they had no effect on the 2nd
harmonic.

Since then I have found a procedure to make effective shorting stubs that do
attenuate the 2nd harmonic (40m, 23 dB, RG8X) and these stubs have been on 2
DXpeditions with good results.

What I am looking for is a multi-multi contest station that presently uses
harmonic shorting stubs that would be willing to try one of my stubs and
compare it's performance to what they are using now.

Please reply to me direct.

Geez, if that's the only mistake I'da made when I started, I
think I'da been doing pretty well! It was probably the first time
a lot of these guys got on HF and they were pretty nervous. 
Especially if people were telling them how dumb they were. I
think we should encourage newbies instead of make fun of them.  I
got off the VE team here in Coos Bay because nobody wants to
learn the code to upgrade anymore.  All they want to do is get a
no-code and quit.  I can't remember the last time I gave a code
test.  Probably when they dumbed the Extra to 5WPM.

EXACTLY!

Here's what our FD gang received from a new contest recruit ...


The opportunity to work next to some of the best operators in our hobby,
and have them take the time to "coach" newcomers as well, was awesome
and always peaks my interest in ham radio. To all of you who put up with
my numerous questions, I am grateful. Having access to all the combined
skill and experience brought to the event by so many, do you blame me?? 

 So not only do we walk away from field day with a great time, but with
better operating skills, old and new friendships. Too bad it's only once
a year!! hi.  

What a setup, great conversation and regardless of where you come from a
common love of the hobby. Thanks for allowing us to share in it all.


Will probably be hearing him joining us in contests in the near future.

All,

Looking to get a radio that is a decent contest rig, but is reasonably

Message-ID: <20020628175806.41525.qmail@web10906.mail.yahoo.com>

Greetings:

This is my first post to the contest reflector in 
13 months...wheretheheckhaveIbeen?

I am in the process of writing the summary article for
QST magazine for the 2002 ARRL DX CW contest.  I am soliciting
your input.  In particular, I would like anecdotal stories
about your operating during the contest, pictures, rate
sheet, etc.  If you think you may have finished in the top 10
in ANY category, I'd particularly like to have your rate 
sheet and station description info for the detailed write-up
that will be posted to the contest section on the ARRL
web site.  If your current station description is accurate
in the N4ZR/PVRC contest station database, let me know.

I am particularly interested in hearing perspective from
casual contesters on their contest experience.  Don't be shy.

Anything you think I ought to know that might be good to
add to the write-up, send it to me!

I know a number of you were sick or taking care of sick
family members that weekend as the flu bug ravaged North
America - if you have an anecdote about that, great.

I may also contact some of you directly by email as well
asking questions.  No guarantee that anything will or will
not be part of the article as editing, of course, is up to
the League for the mag article.  There is much less
constraint on the content for the web site so let's fill
'er up!  

Have a good weekend, everyone.

I take it you are looking for a portable lug along radio, so........
Don't buy one at all.
Borrow one on those few occasions when you might need one, and give the 
loaner a few bucks to cover his outlay.
It is a win-win for both of you.

This should move us past "pse copy",,

Kenwood TS850.

Easy to find used, cheap, works great for contesting, PC control.

Holds most of the world records in Multi-Multi.

Good receiver with the filters, which are also easy to find used.

You may get several different opinions, but there is only one correct 
answer - the kit-built Elecraft K2/100! ;-)  At 5 pounds plus a 
switching PS (another 5 or less), it is one of the lightest and smallest 
you can carry. It way outperforms the commercially-built micro-rigs and 
even beats contesting's most lauded "big" rigs. The rx is terrific in 
pileups and beats the 1000MP even at home. They are hard to find used as 
the 100w version just came out at Dayton, but there are some QRP 
versions listed occasionally on the elecraft@qth.net reflector and 
elsewhere. (Be careful buying used kit rigs, though.) The QRP version 
can be upgraded to the /100 model with a reasonably priced "completion 
kit" which is, in fact, the only way K2/100's are built - first the base 
rig, then the amp. If you don't want to build your radio, there are 
excellent builders available for hire. See http://www.elecraft.com.

If the K2/100 is over your budget for a travel radio, just sell your 
current rig and use the K2 at home, too! I have a 930 and an MP and 
prefer the K2 for everything except working through non-contest, 
split-frequency DX pileups.

Elecraft redefines the vendor/customer relationship. Great Website, 
super support group including hundreds of disciples on the reflector, 
sudden response to customer needs, outstanding documentation, 
vendor-encouraged modifications database, ... the works!

I'm not related to anyone at Elecraft but I do know the principals well. 
They are friends and heros. If that disqualifies my comments, see the 
reflector for identical commentary from outside CA.

When things start to sizzle and I go into bare minimum rate I also speed up
my CW speed - this sensing of that time when not only are you loud in a big
footprint area but loud enough to get away with being short and sweet is the
moment I live for - it is like being the first hour at a DXpedition from a
new country and the whole world wants you - you can work them as fast as you
are able to - at this point the ability to know multiple stations calls that
are calling you and tailenders etc is pure unadulterated gravy....this is
the moment I live for each contest!

Am about to go into some cartons here and see if I can find that old article
from Tom Schiller's there - I am sure it was back before we all shortened
our identities....old age setting cannot remember his old call
anymore.....do remember my copy was on yellow paper - a lot of you have
asked about it - should I find it I will try and scan it and
wordprocessorize it (with Tom's permission) for the contest community to
enjoy....funny how being so long ago does not change the basics - gee mebbe
running people does not necessarily take a Gold Card and a winning Lotto

Do drivers for NA exist so you can user ethernet to connect two or more 
machines together for MM or MS?  I would like to use my current network I 
use at home to accomplish this rather than have to go the serial 
route.  I've never seen any information on this supject and I have look 
around the web, but couldn't find any information.

Zack, INRAD recommended 2 400 hz filters for cw, so that
is what I used with mine. Wish I had it back! For ssb I just
used the standard 2.7 khz filters. Others may have some
suggestions for ssb. I just felt the selectivity was good enough.
My station is defintly low profile (tribander 40ft and wires) so
others may have different thoughts on the use of ssb filters.

Yeah! For performance per pouind or per cubic foot, the Elecraft
K2 os far ahead of the crowd and it's made in USA. Add the
100W amp to the basic rig and you have a flyaway package
under 10 pounds including switching power supply.

The only downside, far as I know, is that it's menu driven and
not very intuitive. BUT I'm a slow learner and was able to
get my basic, 5 watt K2 to jump through hoops within an hour.

The rig comes as a kit. If you're not inclined or not able to
build it, a lot of folks would do the building for you.

It's worth a look!

==========================>
Alkalinity from the older concrete leaches out into the yard.

You do not notice this at first. It takes a while for the leaching to have 
an adverse affect on the surrounding plants that might need a more acid 
soil condition.

Apply acidifier to the surrounding soil.
Same thing happens down here in the Southern USA to azaleas planted too 
close to concrete foundations of houses.

The list is free to be surprised at this being one of my few sincere posts 
with a content of substance.
File away if you wish to preserve same.

Message-ID: <006301c2091e$441fd180$70ab45cf@default>

I have a problem with the Pro micro boom mic set.  The button on the mic
swivel went bad and the mic would not stay in place.  Bob Heil sent me a new
button but upon trying to put it on I found the problem was the tube inside
the button.  It had broken off from the button.  I don't see a way to get
inside headset to fix this as Heil recommended.  I showed the pro micro to
two others who have either Heil Pro or pro micros.  We tried removing the
cushion but the headset is one piece and the cushion appears to be glued on.
We tried to get into the headset from the back where the button is attached
but all of us were afraid to damage the Pro Micro.

Does anyone have experience on repairing either the Pro or Pro micro.
Otherwise the other two recommended sending it all back to Heil.

I'm by far no expert on the history of all this, but my impression is that
the assumption is made that contesters are prone to exaggerate their logs.
In the past with paper logs this was very difficult to find.  When it is
found, the QSO itself and a penalty is extracted.  Yet, situations such as
yours definitely exist where the victim/perp are reversed and the penalties
are not.

Now that most (all for CQ?) logs are submitted electronically, I think it's
high time to eliminate the penalty points entirely.  Just remove the QSO
(and mult if it be one) and recompute the score.  Guys in your situation
will still bemoan why the other guy didn't log you, but at least all you're
losing is the QSO and not having a penalty lumped on.  Anyone trying to
benefit by padding the log will of course have their work totally removed.
Seems fair to me.

I think the time for the penalty points, appropriate when finding fraud was
so difficult when paper logs were the norm, to be totally removed.  Let the
score reduction be computed solely on the basis of the submitted log, less
QSOs in error.

One man's opinion, of course :-)

Gary W2CS

There are two ways to solve the 0 point QSO problem:
1. Automatically give zone and country credit for all 0 pt QSOs. For 
example, USA gets credit for USA and zones 3,4 and 5; UA0 gets credit 
for UA9/0 and zones 17, 18, and 19; DL gets credit for DL and zone 14; 
etc.
2. If a N-I-L pattern appears, for example, W3multi was in the log of 15 
other W ops, but 12 of those QSOs aren't in W3multi's log, he should 
be DQed.

snip....
Does anyone have experience on repairing either the Pro or Pro micro.
Otherwise the other two recommended sending it all back to Heil.

If you have a problem with a Heil product, I'd suggest calling Heil to
discuss it. While their obviously in business to make money, they are very
customer oriented. About a year ago the mike on my "legacy" headset became
intermittent. My guess was that it was in the cord. Dave returned my call,
told me that was a fairly common problem and the fix was quite easy. His
prediction was correct and fix was easy to complete.

Has anyone tried the Heil FS-2 footswitch in contesting? It looks like
it might be easier to key than many of the other footswitches that I
have seen but I'm wondering what other contesters think. All comments
would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone on this list have a trashed Heil Proset headset available
that they would consider selling me? I'm looking for a working mic/boom
from a Proset to put onto another (non-Heil) set of headphones but I
don't feel like spending $130 plus shipping to buy a new headset just
for the mic/boom. If someone reading this has a trashed Proset that has
a working mic/boom and cord please e-mail me if you'de consider parting
with it. Thanks!

Hello all...I have asked this before and I want to see if there have been
some additions and improvements...I travel
the world rather often and far and wide...I have used Compuserve for the
past 9 years and until about 3 years ago they had a great presence in the
world...now they are shrinking in world wide POPs etc and not available in
a lot of countries I travel to...one member of this list had reccommended
GRIC as a world provider...I had to purchase GRIC services thru a company
called VPM and they were horrible...no custome support etc...but GRIC did
have the most worldwide access points....anybody that travels have any
other luck with ATT Worldnet or any other ISP...Compuserve since it was
bought by AOL has begun shrinking its service...I have hung onto Compuserve
since its great for e-mailing ....but its getting time to change...looking
for ideas....thanks de Rick nq4i

Please let me know if you lost any QSOs from K8CC.  For the past several 
years I've reminded our operators before the contest that if they send 
someone an exchange, they are to log it, period.  Hurting the points per 
QSO ratio is not an issue.

I don't know how CQ checks logs, but with ARRL 160 and ARRL 10 (which K9TM 
and I check) the penalties are equivalent QSOs - i.e., if you have a five 
point NIL in ARRL 160, you lose that QSO plus five QSO points.  OTOH, in 
some contests like ARRL DX and SS all QSO points are the same, but the 
strategy is the same.

Before this spirals out of control any further, please note that WW3S
indicated that he made an error in his math while looking at his report.

There were no USA multi-multi's who did not log him nor caused him to lose
any points or multipliers.

I use "AT&T Global Network" to access my company through a virtual private 
network.  In countries that AT&T serves, there are typically dozens or even 
hundreds of local dial-in numbers; sometimes an 800-equivalent number. There 
are hundreds of numbers in the US plus an 800 number. My company must pay extra 
when I use the 800 and equivalent numbers. The dialer includes a self-updating 
list of numbers for each country and US state; i.e., it is always close to 
up-to-date. Unfortunatley, the numbers are listed alphabetically by city, so 
the larger the country or state, the more geography you must know or learn in 
order to find the best number quickly. Hotel desks are very helpful with this. 
The service works well, with speeds varying from about 24000 to 54000 in the 
venues I have tried (mainly
US and Europe). N.B. I use an IBM ThinkPad T20 with a rather good built-in 
modem.  In some Caribbean islands AT&T is not represented and the best I can do 
is call Florida. I don't know if this is the same AT&T service that is 
available to individuals.

Actually they already count as you suggest. That is why the original
poster worked the multi to begin with, to get USA and the zone on a
particular band. Example, at NY4A, we need one "K" station and zones
3,4,5 on each band for mults, even though they don't count as Q
points.

There is no loss to logging 0 point qso's. I'm really quite mystified
that anyone would drop them who is using any of the computer loggers.

In order to get a same country exchange to go out at all so that the
posting station would hear an exchange, the easiest way for the multi
to do that is type in the call and hit enter. All done. Deleting the Q
from the log takes additional work. Logging the Q is BY FAR the
easiest, fastest thing for the multi to do. "W1WXYZ <ENTER> 5
<ENTER>".  Everything else takes more time.

I suspect that someone may have done something like go through the
multi log afterward and deleted everything that had zero qso points
and wasn't a mult, not quite realizing what was happening.

Except that does zilch one way or another for the score. Pts/Q is just
an analysis tool. In something like the WPX may indicate someone spent
too much time with beams aimed at USA gathering 1 pointers, instead of
a slower (but higher scoring) progress working European stations.

But it has no official status in any contest that I know of. Anyone
who would suggest such a strategy (deleting zero pointers) clearly
does not understand contest scoring rules.

This already looks unfair (comparing, say, the free mults a DL gets versus
the ones a US station gets) but multiply it by all the bands involved and it
get much worse.

A see a huge potential for mischief here...  Perhaps a note should be sent
to the "W3multi" alerting him of the trouble, but nothing more.

QUACK's
Good thinking today with computer logging , however when we were papering
logging I'm sure that many guys didn't put in a W7 into their log when they
already had a W6 zone 3 and a couple of VE7's,  TOO much effort to write
them down and also dupe.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Heil FS-2 Footswitch
Message-ID: <20020603.002007.-1392873.1.n6ki@juno.com>

Nat, 

        I guess you missed the previous thread on footswitches
when someone else inquired an alternative to the Heil FS-2

"
        I just replaced a very comfortable, durable and ergonomically
comfortable
footswith that lasted me over 10+  years of contesting.
        After considering many switches including the Heil FS-2,
here's one you should consider and why I chose it.
 
Linemaster  Model Gem-V2
www.linemaster.com
 
860 974-1000
 
Circular - Easy to hit from all angles
 
Perfect touch - you can lightly rest your foot on edge of it
                           and not false trigger but then a light
additional amount of additional pressure
                           keys it and no "cramped" or "tired" foot as
the hours wane on
 
Great Weight and Non Skid corrugated base  - Will not move around too
easily
so no worry about it not staying in position.
 
Nice appearance with chrome ringed edge and easy hit circular top target
area.
 
I expect it will easily last 10+ years for heavy contest use.
 
You can purchase with or without cable. I found the supplied cable listed
on teh web
page to be too heavy and cumbersome so I installed my own thinner and
very flexible
cable and saved another $6 on the price.
 
The Gem-V2 will cost you just under $30 including shipping/handling.
 
Note: Since they normally have a $100 minimum, I requested my switch
as a sample for 60 day evaluation and had it mailed to me at my work
address.
That way you avoid the $100 minimum 
 
You may also want to check with your contest buddies or club members and 
order enough to meet the $100 minimum order. 
 
I have no pecuniary interest in Linemaster  Co. Products"
 
73, Dennis N6KI

Message-ID: <000d01c20af3$a8a1c560$8600a8c0@yumaaz.adelphia.net>

Staples has the Envision Model EN-710e 17" Monitor
on sale, through June 15, for $149.98, less a $70
mail-in rebate, for a final price of $79.98 plus
tax. You can get it at your local Staples store,
or at Staples.com with free shipping.

I've had one of these for about six months now,
and it is one of the cleanest monitors that I've
seen. On one or two occasions, I've detected a
birdie from it, but it was a weak narrowband
sinusoid, and didn't create any problem. I just
bought another one.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Borrowed callsigns
Message-ID: <20020604094126.B19751@cs.utexas.edu>

     I know several big contesters who have "borrowed" the callsigns
of friends for use in the WPX contests.  They operate single-op at their 
own station, but they just use someone else's (more desirable) callsign 
(with the other party's permission, of course.)  

     I wonder how other contesters feel about this practice?

I read the WPX rules the same way, however one of our club members ran into
Steve Boll, N5BJQ, at Dayton, and posted this comment on the club
reflector:

************************************************************************
I hooked up with N8BJQ at Dayton and asked about the team scoring for WPX.
He sez if the station owner is a member, then the multi op score can count
for the club.  Doesn't matter how many ops are members.  FYI.
************************************************************************

If this is uncertain, we should ask Steve for a clarification.

I do not recall it being the effort of logging them nor 
was it the trouble of duping them - afterall ten contacts 
with a ZERO point station counts the same as one contact.

The problem was it made it very hard to figure out 
your average points per QSO.

The first time I showed up at a CQ WW M/M I was told not to 
log more than a few W stations.

Now in the age of computer logging I log everything - I log W/VE stations
even in the ARRL DX contests.

There have been several notes recently about the Dayton cw pileup results on 
the  to the Kansas City DX Club web page.  If you look elsewhere on their 
page you will find the sound files for the 1998 and 1999 pileup tests along 
with the answer sheets.  I ran the files and  confirmed what I had know for 
some time, I suck as a potential world class cw op.  There are some features 
of the sound files that play into my weaknesses.  The selective filters in my 
head will sync on a certain tone frequency. Once I have copied the call at 
that tone I try to mentally lock onto another caller at another tone, doesnt 
work, the original preferred tone distracts me.  If the sound file came 
complete with a rit I would do much better.  On the first listen I could not 
copy more than 38 callsigns from either file.  The list of scores for these 
years is also available on the web site and its a lot of fun to compare and 
find out just how bad or good you really are.  In my case it was good to 
dissolve the illusion.  

The potential fun is limited by the fact that the only files listed are those 
from 98 and 99.  Maybe the KCDXC can locate the sound files from previous 
years and provide us with some additional fun.  If you have never been to 
Dayton or have never participated in the pileup test, this may tell you to 
either avoid the embarrassment, practice more, or to make a reservation now 
for next year.  Log onto the KCDXC web site and have a run at it, beats 
sitting around waiting for the next contest.

Message-ID: <OFA85F541A.96FAF405-ON85256BCE.005889EA@cam.abtassoc.com>

At Saturday's meeting of the Yankee Clipper Contest Club, Dan N1ND made a
lively and informative presentation on developments at the ARRL Contest
Branch.  Many of these have to do with contest coverage and are already
familiar to readers of CQ-Contest.

One change that was new to me is a shorter deadline for submitting logs for
ARRL contests --- instead of 30 days after the contest, it would be 15 days
after the contest.  (As I recall, Dan said that this would apply to the
2002 November Sweepstakes and later contests.  From later information,
however, it is not clear to me whether the change has been adopted or is
merely under consideration.)  Members of the audience had a number of
comments, bringing out pros and cons.  The discussion revealed the need for
flexibility (e.g., someone may enter the ARRL DX Contest as a DXpedition
during the course of a longer trip and not be able to send in the log
within the 15 days), and Dan indicated that he could handle such special
situations.

I'm curious to know what the broader contesting community sees as the
practical implications of such a change.

"Subject: [CQ-Contest] Borrowed callsigns

     I know several big contesters who have "borrowed" the callsigns
of friends for use in the WPX contests.  They operate single-op at their
own station, but they just use someone else's (more desirable) callsign
(with the other party's permission, of course.)

     I wonder how other contesters feel about this practice?   "


I feel there is no question there are better calls to be used in this
contest...if you have a rarer prefix, especially now that W can work W, you
might get waited upon (run em) whereas if you are the third or 10th K4 that
someone has worked spin the know takes over!

It is precisely for this reason that we used WC4E in our Multi-Multi effort
in CW WPX from W1CW/W1YL/K4OJ station....

Jeff (WC4E) has a callsign which is almost synonymous with the WPX
contest...I know when I had pileups calling me there were many guys seeing
new prefix on their monitors and were willing to wait!

Contesting is a competitive sport...if you have found a better shaped sail
in sail boating you go with it...or a better tire in auto racing you go with
that.....

Do I have a problem with a fellow ham loaning his "unique prefix" callsign
to another ham in his quest for greater contest success...not in the least -
what are friends for?

We could have been K4NNN or K4FCG or any of the other calls licensed at
W1CW/W1YL/K4OJ in WPX CW but there is absolutely no question in my mind that
by having Jeff's call we did better - his being there to operate was a big
help, too - nice job on 15, Jeff!

Seems like a really nice "hammy" thing to do - at least to me...provided of
course it is a free choice - I would not condone anyone holding a gun to
someone's head in order to use their call during a contest...even if it were
a hired gun!

This is a fraternity, right - a good place to do fraternal kinda stuff, eh?

Jim,  K4OJ

Hi Ron,
I am a member of the KCDXC and will say tnx to everyone who enjoys the
pileup competition. Now for the good news...Last nite at our monthly meeting
we discussed making cd's of the sound files (including this years)along with
the answersheets and making them available. Once the final info is ready,
either I or Bill K0VBU will let you guys know.

Needing to calculate (or wanting to maximize) points-per-QSO is obviously
unnecessary today.

I don't need to tell most of you that the problem back in the good ol' days
was that in order to report the score immediately after the contest, one
needed to guesstimate the points-per-QSO.  I recall hearing, "Using last
year's...",  oh so many times on 3830.  So any deviation from the norm (IOW,
too many zero-pointers) was perceived as a hidden, after-3830,
score-reducer.  And since relatively few (compared to today) logs were
checked, it was of no consequence - although it should have been.

Computer logging has been the norm for well over ten years.  Points-per-QSO
is calculated on the fly.  No need to guess or maximize.  Old habits die
hard I suppose.

I like the Heil footswitch.  And on the well-beaten-down subject of
headphones, as I have stated before, the ONLY headphone I will ever use
again is the FOSTEX T-20.  Cost about $80.  I wear them without any
discomfort for 48 hours straight.  Simply epoxy a Heil boom mike with HC-4
element (naturally) to the side.

Following my lead, the FOSTEX used one time or another by world class
operators like W6YA, CT1BOH, and OH2BH.

Now that I have revealed Contesting Secret No. 2, (1) the competition just
got a little tougher, and/or (2) many more of you will be operating,
comfortably, for many more hours, and we will all enjoy your presence, and
obvious skills.

Hoping to see many of you in Finland.

Quacks
Thats how I did it,  I had the permission of the owner of WR7HE to use his
call for the WPX   ssb/cw and did so.  I'm responsiable for answering the
QSL's.  and operating within the rules.

Yeah, and its probably not too different than going on a DXpedition for a
contest, and "borrowing" not only their call, but also their station.  And
if it adds to your score, interest in the contest, and is an all-in-all
stimulus for activity, and FUN, so what?  Isn't that what contesting is
supposed to be all about?

The point is:  ANYONE can do it.  Just like SO2R.  If you don't wish to play
the game, your choice.  But don't condemn others from trying to find an
advantage.

It's just one more element of why it's a "competition".  Duh.........

K4VX has done this for years. His wife is NS0Z and they usually use her call
in WPX from his station, which most of the time is manned by guest ops. As
long as permission has been given, I don't see a problem with it, even
though in this particular case it makes my own call sign less desirable!

Hear, hear!!!

I agree.

This was my first Dayton convention.

I would have loved to have particpated/competed had I realized that the
hospitality suite I was in (down the hall from the banquet room by the
elevators) was not THE hospitality suite where the real activities were
going on (is that where the door prizes were handed out, too?).

Oh, well...next year....

==========================>
A hot glue gun will work as an adhesive quite nicely, as well.

A hot glue gun will also serve well to seal the end of plugs where it might 
be a concern for connections being strained by an inadvertent pull or tug 
on the wire(s).

Another tip is to use W2IHY audio setting # 8,723 while wearing loose boxer 
shorts for ragchews and tight briefs for pileup busting.

This is an excellent idea.  A week would not be too short, in my opinion,
especially given Dan's flexibility for special occasions.

I think what Dan is seeing is that most e-mail logs arrive within a day or
two of the end of a contest.  IF
all contest entries were e-mail logs then there would be no problem.
However, since ARRL must accept hand logs (as do most contests) this will
only work if logs are accepted with postmarks of the date 15 days out.
Same for diskettes received.

For Dx contests I am sure ARRL receives logs up to 3 or 4 months after the
contest as overseas mail (even some airmail) takes this long.

Its not a perfect world and there are reasons why even 30 days is too short
(PC disk problems, logging program problems, business trips etc)    The
question is whether Dan will accept exceptions.
Lets hope he will.

Considering that there's a ton of people that still refuse to give you
a dupe contact and send QSO B4 instead, when QSO B4 is clearly a loser
for BOTH stations, more so for the one *sending* QSO B4, I'd guess
that only once every twenty years does the average ham set down and
read the rules for any possible improvements to modus operandi.

Among those who work the boards for corporate tech support, there is
this snippet often heard when the mic's are cut off.

RTFM

It's amazing what even college educated engineers will fail to read
and comprehend. Stuff of legends.

73, Guy.

I find that if I submit a log 29 days after the contest, it is probably 
because I have forgotten about it since about day 3.

It would be nice to have some automated service for which one could sign up, 
that would look at a sample of early arriving logs, and if it detects your 
call as having been on the air but shows no log received from you, would send 
out an e-mail message asking/reminding you to send in your log. This might 
happen 10-15 days after the contest.

Something like this has been done for the sprints, I suspect with some human 
intervention.

I don't think one should expect to receive an exception.
Exception means rare, and is subject to discretion, which
could change in the future.  

Furthermore, there are legitimate reasons for longer periods
to submit a log.  For example, the month of November is
especially busy - an op has just finished a grueling 48 hours
in the CQWW fone contest at the end of October, and now
hits: SSCW, SSFone, CQWW CW, and for stateside guys, Thanksgiving
holiday with attendent family pressures.  Keeping in mind the
Amateur's Code from the ARRL handbooks, ham radio is a hobby -
and is secondary to one's primary obligations to family, job,
etc. Thus, it may be difficult to find time to submit the log,
especially if one is trying to think up witty comments for
the soapbox writeup.

What compelling reason is served by reducing the time frame
for log submission?

OK, so they're going to cut the deadline in half, from 30 days to 15 days.

Does this mean the RESULTS will be computed and printed twice as fast?  I doubt
it.

Well Kenneth, back when I was first licensed (Federal Radio Com., not FCC), 
the callsign was firmly associated with the radio equipment and 
location.  I guess by popular demand in the amateur service anyway, the 
callsign  association transitioned to the operator.  Now, the callsign has 
become a commodity that can be used by any qualified operator with the 
owners permission.  This progression can be considered a form of 
progress.   73   Jim  w3cp

I'm sure all the anti-log-sanitizing nazis will be happy, but the
programmers might not be. Now they have but a few days to fix any
Cabrillo-generation bugs that might not be discovered until late. (I know, I
know, they are ALL supermen and there are never any bugs.)

Also, this would put the deadline for several large contests right on top of
other large contests (ARRL DX phone occurs 2 wks after ARRL DX CW; SS phone
is two wks after SS CW).  Currently, I don't have to worry about submitting
any of the big-four Fall contest logs until after CQWW CW is over.

I'm not against change, but it should have a purpose...   Is this to speed
up the publication of the results on the web or in QST?  (Personally, I can
wait the extra 15 days...) Or is it to cut down on that nasty evil of log
sanitizing?  (Which IMO is not as pervasive as some seem to believe.)  Or
will it simply serve to make slightly more acute one of contesting's
existing burdens?  If Dan is going to entertain "special situations" (and I
don't envy him this), why not make the deadline one week (or less)?  Then
when your only Internet-enabled PC crashes, or your ISP goes down, you, too,
can cry "foul!"

Mike N2MG
P.S. I do not perform any post-contest log sanitizing nor do I often take
more than a few days to submit my log.

Does anyone know if there is any way to have my meager logged flagged as a
"check log" when submitted for the CW WPX?

Due to lack of time that weekend, I made an appalling low number of contacts
(no, I'm not telling you how many, it's embarrassing!) and while I have no
problem helping out the log checkers, I don't want to make an "official"
entry.

Why not finish a contest, immediately produce the required file, and then
immediately e-mail it and be done.

Ron --

In the Cabrillo summary sheet spec www.kkn.net/~trey/cabrillo/ CheckLog is
indicated as one of the categories although the official rules do not
mention anything about that as a category.

Never tried that myself although I have had the opportunity with many meager
scores!

Does anyone know if there is any way to have my meager logged flagged as a
"check log" when submitted for the CW WPX?

Due to lack of time that weekend, I made an appalling low number of contacts
(no, I'm not telling you how many, it's embarrassing!) and while I have no
problem helping out the log checkers, I don't want to make an "official"
entry.

I tried this, and while the hot glue was a bit uncomfortable for the first hour 
or so, it *did* keep my Bose phones securely and comfortably on my head for the 
next 48 hours. Taking them off was a bit uncomfortable, tho. Thanks for the

I've operated a number of contests from various Caribbean locations.  I
usually center the contest around a vacation so it may be a week or two
before I arrive back home.  Once home there's usually a lot of catching up
to do with numerous home chores and work projects.  I don't travel with
email so I need a lot of time to submit my logs.  Those doing paper logs
certainly benefit by having this amount of time.  Even if you computer log,
your computer may break down and it may take a while to get the data
straightened out.  I like the four week log submission period, especially
with work and family obligations.

Because, as someone else commented, November is loaded with contests, and 
there are a few other things going on.  More to the point, what possible 
anti-cheating benefit is derived from cutting the deadline from 30 to 15 
days?  How can that change affect the incidence of log-fudging in any 
meaningful way?  Inquiring minds want to know!

I think there is too much time at present between the event and the results.
Reducing the time frame for log submission could contribute directly to
shortening this time.  I think it's a good idea.

The reason I rarely do that is because preparing the log is a tedious and
time consuming process which is about the last thing I would want to do
right after opeating a (long) contest.  I might do it after a Sprint, but
getting a big log with lots of QSOs ready is another matter.  Making a big
log presentable takes time and clarity.

If you are suggesting not cleaning up the log, that is a different topic.

Doug,
I dunno about the ears but I have found that being bald helps keep glue off
one's hair, usually.  The other problem I found was that after a phone
contest it was difficult to eat with the mike glued to one's lips.  I
learned eventually to leave a hole into which I could insert a straw.  I
also got some strange looks when I went to work on a Monday altho on Wall
Street nobody says much.  They probably though I was just a new cold caller.

The other problem is that your head can get addicted to hot glue. After a
while your head gets heavy which leads to neck aches...or permanently bowed
heads...or cw only ops.

Remember, FD is coming, even tho it isn't a contest..
.
73,
Dennis K2SX

Lots of comments on this, but most are using tunnel vision.

IMHO there is more to consider than a single op with a 1000 QSO
computerized log.  

Why not send your comments to Dan and let him weigh your inputs

       Hi

 For the last few months we have been trying to get the Heil Pro Headset to
work well with the Yaesu FT-1000MP MK-V, but so far it has resulted in thin
audio
that sounds 2 s points weaker than our MD-200 desk mic. But it is very nice
to use a headset whilst contesting. We have tried both the HC4 and HC5
inserts but have had no luck. We have used the same headset with a contest
club on an FT-1000MP and had OK results. Any help will be appreciated.

KB3MM asked me:

> The log is the log.  What's to clean up ?

Here are a few examples:

Let's say I switched bands on the radio but forgot to switch bands on the
program.  I think I owe it to everyone to go through and do all the ensuing
damage control.

Let's say I misspelled a guy's name - at the moment the rules don't say I
can't go in and correct it later.

Let's say I put in a comment "This guy's a jerk; put him on the jerk list" -
I would want to double-check to make sure that was out prior to submitting
the log (that comment would be for "internal use only," hi).

Sounds like you really want to talk about the topic of massaging or
sanitizing which is beyond the scope of my first comment.  There are plenty
of reasons an op would want to make his log presentable before pressing
"send" which in many people's opinion fall short of "massaging" or
"sanitizing" from a practical standpoint.  Nobody's perfect.

Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.2.20020606145547.024be6d0@pop.abs.adelphia.net>

In Dayton, I had the chance to see a demo and talk with the inventor of the 
device he calls "The Time Machine."  Simply put, this inexpensive unit 
allows you to receive ALL of an 80-khz slice of any HF band, and record 6 
hours (per tape) of the whole band segment on a VHS stereo VCR.  Then you 
can go back, at your leisure, and play back any time slice, tuning across 
with your receiver to revisit any station, anywhere within that frequency 
band.

The possibilities strike me as endless -- imagine being able to record the 
first 6 hours on 14000-14080, for example, and play it back later to find 
out why you did better or worse than the competition.  See how W3LPL or 
KC1XX were doing, what they were working and when, while you were 
struggling, or soaring, on the same band.  Or you could put one at a 
station on another continent, and hear later how the whole contest sounded 
from over there.

Check out http://www.expandedspectrumsystems.com/prod2.html for the full 
story.  I have no financial interest -- just think the CQ-Contest audience 
should hear about this.

This has to be an example of Ham Utopia. One of my friends ( a contester and
DXpeditioner) sent this to me. He shall remain nameless but I thought
sharing his glee most worthwhile...........He has a bid in on some property.

got the permits in 2 hours, before I even own the damn place, u gotta love
that... two 100' 45G... they even allow guy anchors inside the 25'BRL and in
the reserve septic! I guess I had my stuff together, they took the canned
rohn drawings and my hand-drawn site plan and stamped them APPROVED PLANS hi
hi.  This county is soooo ham friendly, it qualified for residential fast
trak same day permit!  The guy checked w/super and came out with solemn look
and said federal law says we have to give u these permits, here you are, all
fees waived except $55!

I will share the QTH information for 25 thousand dollars :-)     He'd KILL
me :-)

Nice to see the good reports once in a while. Heaven knows the troubles most
of us have had...

Have a great summer....IARU/WRTC around the corner now.

I used to do this with a Betamax recorder, using a Drake R4A
receiver as the front end.  The sensitivity wasn't great, because
the RF gain was cranked back low, and the bandwidth was only
~6 -10 KHz with varying attenuation, but it was limited primarily
by the R4A first IF crystal filter rather than the VCR.  Had to fudge
the "BFO" l.o. way out of alignment to put the filter into proper
perspective.  I "FM-ed" the output of my T4X with the carrier
gain cut all the way to zero into a dummy load and listened on
the receiver to play the signals back.  You could hear a lot of CW
signals tuning around in that bandwidth, and it made for great
post-contest fun and games.

..... Or just look up the correct spelling on QRZ.com???  Log checking

In my experience, the cabrillo log checking robots would not compute this in
a data field and they would send you a "danger Will Robinson" reply
immediately.  You can then go and edit that line and resubmit.  Gab/notes
don't go into the cabrillo log anyway they?

When the contest time is up, it's up.  I press save and send it off.

Duct tape works well.

I'm not a frequent SSB contest participant.  Also, a few years ago, I threw
out a couple of my old boom mic/headsets (the headphones were shot).  For
one SSB contest I did get into a year or two ago, I took my Ten-Tec desk mic
and some duct tape and fashioned a loop to hang the mic stand with the base
against my chest and the mic near my mouth.  Worked great!  No tape to rip
off my scalp after the contest and lose hair--I'm doing that naturally and
medically.

Not for me. I fix calls like G444XYZ (sticky key probably) and ##DF2ABC 
(clearly a typo). Obvious stuff I got wrong, and 95% of the time I KNOW it's 
wrong ahead of time, but didn;t have the time or inclination to fix it 
during the test (I haven't slept for 30 hours, I'm running at 100+, and I 
type G444444444444444444ABC. I make a mental note to fix it when times get 
slow, and maybe forget).

Also damn time errors. Writelog, god bless its heart, did a timesetback 
(thats's a verb folks) during WPX SSB due to daylight savings time in 
England. I manually editing over 1000 times (and got a few wrong when I 
rechecked).

That said, I approve of faster log submittal times.

I don't think log submission is the gating item in the log checking or
results generation process!  If you are going to allow exceptions, why
bother to shorten the deadline.

I would attack the problem a different way.  Give us an incentive to submit
more quickly!

I keep a paper notepad next to my operating position to keep track of things 
like this to go back and fix later.

Better to do it later in calm moment than in the heat of battle...

I'd rather go back and fix it than depend on the kindness of the log 
checkers (no offence meant to any log checkers!-).

I will correct obvious misteaks - if the name entered is "jefg" I know it 
should be "jeff" - UNLESS I make a note of the unusual name in my paper 
notes. This works for me, anyway.

Single ops seem to have no problem with sending logs in right away, but some of
our multi-op efforts resulted in logs that were totally screwed up.  At one
point we had a lot of RF getting into the computers and we had to manually
search the logs for calls like XQY7JO63C.  These were not calls we typed in,
these were gibberish calls that showed up in the log off screen during the
contest, so we didn't know they were there until a post-contest examination.
With the 3 plus 1 penalty in CQ WW we could have easily lost a large percentage
of our actual score.  Sometimes the RF was there and sometimes it wasn't.
Fortunately, the problem seems to have departed, but I still check.  And it
takes time to go through thousands of Qs.

Another time we had a computer go screwy and start doubling contacts, that is,
we would enter KH7R on 20, for example, and then out of nowhere KH7R would also
show up as a QSO on 80.  That one took a while to fix.  Then there was the time
the commercial power took a hit and we came back up OK except after the contest
the times were 7 hours off.  Another time we came up after a power hit with the
wrong date.  Both those took a lot of post-contest time to fix.  (Yes I did buy
a UPS and it got some use in WPX CW!)  One time I had to ask for a log filing
extension just to get things ironed out.

Did you ever log part of the contest on paper and the rest on computer?  Try
sending that one in right after contest.

There are a lot of times I go to sleep shortly after the contest and 12 hours
later I'm headed to the airport only to be out of town for a week or two.  I
guess if I didn't have any other life, I just stayed home, computers never
crashed, the power company got their act together and  I ran only single-op QRP
I would probably want to reduce the log deadline to right after the contest.
Until that time I vote NO.

50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HELSINKI OLYMPIC GAMES

Exactly fifty years before the opening of the WRTC2002 Games in Helsinki this 
year, 
there was a ceremony on the Arctic Circle in the always exotic Lapland (OH9) to 
mark the lighting of the Olympic torch and the start of the relaying of the 
torch on a 
long journey to Helsinki.
The Olympic Stadium was packed full on July 19, 1952 during the opening 
ceremony 
of the XV Olympic Games in Helsinki. This year we are celebrating the 50th 
anniversary of the greatest event in Finnish sports history.

Those participating in the greatest and most spirited event in radio 
contesting, 
WRTC2002, are encouraged to join in the July 19, 2002 festivities at the 
Helsinki 
Olympic Stadium when footage of the original opening ceremony will connect us 
from 1952 to the present day in a true Olympic spirit.

The WRTC2002 symbol featuring the Helsinki Olympic Tower reminds us of the 
unparalleled Spirit of Helsinki, the strength of this small nation.

Why bother - since this was hot glue - seems best to leave it Doug, you can

     To answer the question posed about how hard is to log contacts
on the wrong band given that in 2002 everyone has computer control
of the rigs...

     It is very easy to log contacts on the wrong band in a VHF contest.
There are no "all-band" VHF/UHF contest radios.  A typical VHF contest 
station might look like: http://n5xu.ae.utexas.edu/n5xu/vhf.html
You have one or two rigs for 50, 144, and 432, but you need to use
transverters for 222, 1296, etc.  You may have almost one rig per band, 
and I don't know of any major contest logging software that can handle 
the concept of five or six computer-controlled rigs, with each one
representing one or two or three bands, each possibly reporting the 
IF frequency rather than the RF frequency...

I agree with Randy.  The biggest problem with log checking is getting
everyone to submit a proper log.
When you receive logs in say a non cabrillo format the log must be run
through a converter and with some contests this is no trivial task.  Then
there needs to be an incentive to get the paper log entries to put them on a
computer even if post contest.  Hand checking these logs is also not a
trivial task. Please remember that some still do not have a PC.   A certain
Russian contester would tell me thanks for accepting his hand log.  Well
before this years contest I gave him some reasons to get it on the computer.
Low and behold he sent in the entry on diskette using a PC at his work.
Next year he says he will send it via e-mail.

Perhaps there should be three incentives: (say add points like the ARRL
Field Day)

One for fast log entry (say arrives with the 15 days).
One for being in the proper format.  Most of the logging programs produce a
cabrillo format but you have to have the correct (latest?) version.
The final incentive would be to get it on a computer even if you send a
diskette.

This would sure speed up log checking of the CQ 160 Contests.

One further comment.  When one has put in a big effort in a contest why
don't  we put the same effort in providing a log that fully meets contest
requirements?

Hi all,
I want to remind you of the upcoming All Asian DX Contest which will 
be held 1 week later. This contest must be a great oppotunity for you 
to get many Asian rare entities and many old friends in Asia. 

The contest period will be from 0000 6/15 to 2400 6/16.
When you contact any Asian station, please send RST + your age. 
For example, I send 59941 as I am 41 years old.
If you are a YL station, you can send 00 instead of your real age. 

The detailed rule can be found on the following JARL official page;
http://www.jarl.or.jp/English/4_Library/A-4-3_Contests/AADX.htm
The result of 2001 is rinked to the same page.

The only change from last year is regarding a special plaque.
There are not so many sponsors, however, you have a chance to get a 
special plaque from JARL. The plaques as of today is shown on the 
following page;
http://www.jarl.or.jp/English/4_Library/A-4-3_Contests/2002donor.htm

JARL doesn't provide a junior operators category, however, the
operator's 
age can be found from the exchange. So the Alumni Association of JA7YDX 
sponsors to the "Junior winner of sigle operator". If you are 18 years 
old or younger, please try to get this plaque. If you are a YL station 
and you are 18 years or younger, you had better write your real age on
the 
summary sheet. 

Though I wanted to notify this news to a lot of young operators, I 
don't have any address list of young operators. If there are young 
operators in your neighborhood or in your family, please tell him/her 
this event.

If you are a CT user, try to download a newer version from the following

registered user's site;
http://www.k1ea.com/ctvault/
Ken worked hard to meet the new rule of the All Asian DX Contest last 
year, and the ver 9.61 or later can be completeley fit to AADX.

If you have any question about this contest, please contact the JARL 
contest committee;  contest@jarl.or.jp

1. The connection between computer and rig fails (bad or loose connection) 
and you don't notice right away.

2. Until recently, my K2 did not have a serial port, so it was an issue.

I agree with Randy & several others that the shortening the deadline, at
this time, does not appear to make sense.

Now, I'm all for getting contest results back in hand faster, but I think a
combination two things already in process will take care of this:

First, the posting of the results to the web when completed (which saves 6
to 8 weeks or more waiting for them to be printed in the appropriate
periodical & waiting for it to arrive snail mail).

Second, the significant number of logs being submitted in a standard format
electronically.  CQ already requires that all logs be sent electronically,
and it stands to reason that at some point in the future this will be
mandated for most or all of the major contests.  If the logs are in a
standard format, then it should be a lot faster for the contest committee to
compile data into their master database and then select only those logs that
may need scrutiny (for whatever reason) rather than handle pile after pile
of paper.

But shortening the deadline for two weeks, IMHO, puts an undue burden on
those who need the time to:
1.   go over their logs for mistakes -- as many have pointed out, there are
legitmate reasons for doing so
2.  need to return from travelling, either work or contest related, and then
get the logs in
3.  do not, for whatever reason, keep their contest logs electronically, or
do not use the correct format, or don't have email access, etc., and have to
make arrangements to get their logs converted or entered whatever and then
sent in to the appropriate email.

I'm sure that there will be at least two or three who will reply something
on the lines of "let them get computers, let them get a cheap ISP, and let
them get the right software!"   That's another thread for another time;
let's just say that I think it will be a sad day when a shack computer for
contest logging is mandated for contest operation (key word there is
"mandated")

I don't think log submission is the gating item in the log checking or

bother to shorten the deadline.

I would attack the problem a different way.  Give us an incentive to submit
more quickly!

I would try putting "checklog" in the subject line and in the soapbox field. I 
sent in 
cabrillo files to the ARRL for the 2001 CW and SSB DX contests. I wanted them 
used only
as checklogs and stated that very clearly in the soapbox fields. They ended up 
in the
contest results as regular entries. I suppose I could have said "I cheated in 
this
contest" in the soapbox fields and no one would have noticed - hi. I thought 
the emails
with my logs might bounce if I put "checklog" in the subject, but now I see 
that's
probably the proper way to get the message through.

This would be a very FUN contest if the JA's participated!

Get on 15 meters on a non-contest weekend and you'll have a JA pileup.  Get
on during a contest weekend and you'll be working 40/hr if you're lucky.

I stopped doing All Asia and JIDX a while ago.  Maybe I'l give out a few

While this company does have a lot of different cases, their prices are high
(typical retail, no discount).  In addition, for the Pelican cases, they use
the same picture for every size case...

For cheap pelican cases, try www.cases4less.com among other web discounters
(I have no interest in Pelican or this website - it just has cheap cases and
delivers quickly).  This place sells the 1650 without foam for $155 - this
is cheaper than most personal luggage, and much more durable!

The experience of the 6Y2A and HC8N teams has lead us all to use the Pelican
1650 case.  For the durability and price, you can't beat it.  In addition,
these cases are used by divers, film crews etc, that they are very common,
and often go unnoticed.   I first got a ATA spec'd Hardigg case (VERY
expensive, and "military looking"), and it was stopped at every point for
inspection... not so with the Pelican case.

And as always, the foam you use to pack your equipment is THE most critical
item.  I have a lot of info and photos on packing the MP and other equipment
on my DxHoliday website:  http://dxholiday.com/dxresources.htm#equipmenttips

Message-ID: <f2.1cc5619b.2a34b08c@aol.com>

Several of y'all had asked me to keep you informed on my TH-7 boom conversion 
project.
Kirk, K4RO, had modified his tribander with an Omega match per N4KG's design 
and reports not only fine results, but even better, higher contest scores on 
40 meters. With Kirk's encouragement I set off to duplicate this antenna. I 
have a crank-up tower, so could not tune the antenna at it's operating 
height. Tuning it with the tower cranked down proved pointless. The resonant 
frequency changed drastically when extending the tower. I've finally found a 
solution to the problem which not only lets me tune the antenna to 1:1 
anywhere on 40 with the tower extended, it also gives me a 1:1 match on 30 as 
a bonus.
My description of the antenna, with photos, can be found at:

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Etiquette
Message-ID: <005601c20fc6$307dfea0$03010a0a@office1>

My club sponsors a local 2M FM contest every January.  We're starting to
work on the updated rules for the 2003 event.  I'd like to solicit some of
the more experienced ops here on the list for suggestions or advice... if
you're not interested, my apologies for the bandwith & no need to read
further.

A problem we ran into last year was that of, for lack of better terms, rude
or marginally ethical behavior from a few stations; most where newcomers or
non-contesters who didn't know better, and a few of the "damn the rules, win
at all costs" school.  As a result of this, we're thinking of doing two
things:

(a)  Add a rule to the effect that will permit disqualification for improper
behavior
(b)  Add to the rules a one-sheet addendum detailing what we consider "good
amateur practice."

The biggest problems last year were two-fold.

First, we had many situations were someone would call "CQ Contest" for
several minutes, finally get a call, work the "new" one -- and then get his
frequency clobbered by 10-12 stations who had simply been listening and then
jumped once the contact was made.  This scared off some of the "new" ones
who didn't know what was going on or how to handle a pile-up, and ticked off
the station calling CQ because "his" frequency was absconded.  (In the early
hour of the contest -- it runs 4 hours -- you'd hear someone politely asking
to call, and that worked out well.  In the last hour, politeness went out
the window as some got very ruthless about trying to "win").

Second, we had a situation with one club station who thought nothing of
calling "CQ" right on top of anyone -- be it a contact in progress, or
someone else calling CQ, or in one case a scheduled net (that we didn't know
about) trying to conduct themselves.  This station was also reported to be
trying to work stations on 146.52 & below simplex frequencies, which we had
explicitly declared as a "no contest" area for those trying to operate
outside the contest.  One of the ops did not take kindly to "suggestions"
from the contest committee to knock it off, which led to some interesting
situations -- it's actually kind of funny to hear someone tell the guy who
conceived the contest & wrote most of the rules that he didn't know what he
was talking about!  Sad, but funny.

Regardless, we're figuring that an "etiquette" page of "good amateur
practice" adapted for 2M FM Simplex will be a big help for those who simply
didn't know better and were just doing what they heard on the air.  And,
unfortunately, since we didn't have a "DQ" rule in place, we now see that we
need one to curb those that get out of hand.

Any suggestions welcome.  And thanks!

Make sure the case you buy is ATA rated, or the airlines will balk at paying 
damage claims.

Another tip from my roadie travel log - A nice new looking case gets lots 
more scrutiny (from nosy customs guys, security, thieves, etc.) than one that 
looks like it routinely travels. To give your gear that "used/travelled" 
look, get some stickers and plaster all over them. Rip them and make them 
aged looking for more authenticity. Freebie radio station call letter bumper 
stickers and things like that are good, as are old worn looking shipping 
labels (even if they are fake). After a while and some mileage, you won't 
have to worry about it - the stickers will be necessary to hold the case 
together!

Hi everyone:

        Allow me to throw a match onto this dying thread.  I guess I'm in
the minority on this one, and I'm willing to consider that my thinking is
colored by the fact that I have a WPX-friendly callsign that's actually
assigned to me !
        Firstly, I'm not sure that some of the respondents addressed  the
intent of the original question - either that, or I misunderstood it, hi.
The original post referred to the increasingly common practice of a single
op using someone else's callsign, when the licensee is in no way connected
with the operation aside from "lending" the callsign, and the operation is
clearly not at the QTH of the licensee.  From the responses so far:

-  in N6TJ's example, it should be fine to use the DX station's call - it's
his station, licensed to his QTH !

-  in K4OJ's example, WC4E's call was used at a location not his own, but
when I look at the ops listed for that operation, Jeff is listed as one
    of the ops, and if I know Jeff, he was there for much if not all of the
weekend !  This practice has apparently been OK at least for 20 years.  Jeff
was THERE during the operation.

-  in the NS0Z/K4VX example, I'm assuming that if they are married, they
live together, and NS0Z's license shows that address as the QTH !   No
problem with that !

-  the Rex Maner / WR7HE post may be the only example that accurately
reflects the original question...

Do the FCC regulations really allow for this practice ?  I remember 30 years
ago when we had to be very careful about signing portable, even when at a
friend's house across town.  Then, I think about 20 years ago, apparently it
became unnecessary to sign portable, and then any US call could be anywhere
in the USA.  Have we now gotten to the point where the callsign  used in the
contest doesn't have to give ANY information about the location OR the
operator ?  I don't think this practice is acceptable for DXCC, for example,
otherwise I could have gotten 5BWAZ from KC1XX a long time ago while never
leaving my house !

Consider this:  the operator using the call gets an FCC citation
(unintentionally, of course), which is sent to the licensee, not the
operator.  If it were your callsign being used, can you picture yourself
saying "well, uh, gee, I really don't know anything about it - the operation
wasn't at my house, and I was never there.  I let some guy use my call for
the weekend..."

I'm all for trying to get competitive advantages, within the rules.  I just
wonder if this one is something that we should be doing.  And, I mean no
disrespect to my friends and fellow contesters who may have done this in the
past.  I simply offer my thoughts as fodder for possible discussion.

If you're really looking for that advantage in WPX, trade in your primary
call for a 2x1 !  They work just fine the other 50 weekends too !

                                                        Regards
Stu            KC1F

The best solution to the WPX callsign issue is to form a club and get a club
callsign for WPX. It only takes 3 other members and they don't even have to
be hams (XYL and kids in my case - WK6LA, the West LA Contest Club.)

Message-ID: <3D03CDB1.A7A@erols.com>

I know that ARRL HQ, many times, has permitted their call (W1AW) to be 
used at various venues. Dayton, for example, operates W1AW/8 at their 
site.  I know this was done because I visited Dayton and saw W1AW/8 being 
operated. I also know that the ARRL had issued them a letter advising 
that they had permission to do so AND the ARRL quoted an FCC part 97 rule 
section which authorized it.

Our local ham club at Social Security Admin did the same thing. Had their 
club/group callsign used at individuals homes as part of an event but 
again.. they had authorization from the Club trustee to do it.

As far as I can understand it, in the case of an individual allowing his 
call to be used by another when they aren't there.. this would seem to be 
OK assuming the control op (the person in charge of the operation) is 
adhering to the rules for being a control op and operations are within 
the priveledges of the licensee acting as control op.  OF course.. if an 
FCC cite makes it way to the holder of the callsign being used.. htey are 
going to have to answer it since they are the one responsible for the 
callsign. The control operator may have some culpability and may be 
guilty of violating the rules and have some accountability, but the 
callsign holder is the one who getsthe cite and has to answer it.

I've got to get in another .02c worth.  Yes the holder of the call sign is
going to have to answer any citation issued for improper operation.  The
holder of the call has to have enough trust in the borrower that operation
will follow the rules.   The answer to a citation would, in most cases only
have to say that an error was made while in the heat of contesting and steps
have been taken to assure that this type of infraction will not re-occure.

Being a good contester, I decided to get TWO.  I asked if I could get two
rebates and they said "as long as I sent them in separately."   After I had
checked out, they THEN told me they have a "one rebate per household" rule
but confidentially advised me to get around it by sending them in from two
different addresses.

Whatever.  Be prepared.

I hope the monitors are as good as you say, Dave.

What Dave didn't say was that they also have the EN-910s on sale with the
rebate - which makes them something like $150 after rebate.  I didn't think
two of them would fit on the desk.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] 1 and 2
Message-ID: <20020611092031.44326.qmail@web13805.mail.yahoo.com>

Hi Contesters,


In the big contests (mainly WW) I often hear (A and B
VFO) that multi and/or single (!) station calling CQ
TEST (with a big signal) and same callsign ?MULT? (S&P
with a weak signal) goes back in same band same time.
(I think there are 2 stations (signals) in same band
same time.) That?s cheating. I have an idea to stop
them (perhaps): if the CQ station gives a nr: 1 after
the zone or nr (59/599 151 or 59/599 0011) and the
BACK station gives a nr: 2 after the zone or nr
(59/599 152 or 59/599 0012) so then the contest
committee can see clearly (?) the cheating: that MULT
and non mult QSOs in pileups (with 2 in 1s) in the
log?

What's Your opinion?

Zoli,

The technique you're suggesting can only show if the station worked was
called or calling. Nothing else. It is legal to make a QSO by any way -
running or S&Ping in random order...
How could you possibly know what was going on from this "Log":

1233   HA5PP   59001R  59001M
1233  HA6PP   59002R  57001M
1234  HA7PP  59003M  59014R
1237  HA8PP  59004R  59006M
1238  HA9PP  59005R  59001M
etc
(I used R and M instead of 1 and 2, for better clarity)

Back in 1970ies and 80ies, with 15 minute time limits for Multi/Single
stations, the cheating was done using "rubber clock": A running station
started the designated time block operation 2-3 minutes earlier, and
remained 2-3 minutes longer, thus making each 15 minute segment actually 20
minutes of operation. So, each hour was splitted in 4 time segments, and
actuall operation lasted not 60 but 80 minutes. Multiply it by 48 hours, and
you get 960 minutes of extra time per station, or 16 hours. Both runner and
multiplier station make total of 32 extra hours during 48 hour contest.
Those "experts" risked only 2-3 minutes of simultaneous operation on two
bands, every 15 minutes, but you will agree that it was very difficult to
catch this, even with carefull monitoring. Those were the days of paper
logs, and it was easy to correct times and squeeze these 2-3 minutes within
15 minute limits. Log cross checking by a committee could not easyly detect
this, due to the fact that 2 or 3 minutes difference in reported times could
be addressed to slightly detuned clocks used. And those "masters" knew it.

Computer logging made some trouble to this technique, since the clocks
became much better tuned now :-)

However, new technique emerged: having another S&P station on a runner's
band. As long as you keep one signal at a time, it is perfectly legal to
collect anything you wish on a runner's band, using second radio (and
amplifier and antenna too...). Many big Multi Multis are using twin setup
per band, and you can see it on their web pages. They do not advertise the
way they keep a single signal at a time, though. And there are big Multis
that don't care about this limit...

I do not mean to discourage you in an attempt to protect honest hams from
cheaters, but the situation we have today is very dissapointing:
QRP winners were using few hundred watts; Low power high scorers were using
high power; High power highscorers were using many many kilowatts; Single op
entrants had assistants, or used packet clusters; Multi op teams had more
than a single signal per limit at a time, or spread their contest QTH across
entire nation, or had a remote receiver placed close to a 3 point continent
and relayed the audio via various means, etc;  Not to mention heavy
pre-contest advertising, web announcements, special awards or QSL cards,
T-shirts and mugs for fivebanders, sixbanders...

Maybe, with this new Time Machine invention, bands can be monitored very
succesfully, and cheaters caught easier. But then, the cheaters usually just
get warned, their score omitted from the listings, and it only turns them to
be more cautious next time :-(

In the big contests (mainly WW) I often hear (A and B
VFO) that multi and/or single (!) station calling CQ
TEST (with a big signal) and same callsign ?MULT? (S&P
with a weak signal) goes back in same band same time.
(I think there are 2 stations (signals) in same band
same time.) That?s cheating. I have an idea to stop
them (perhaps): if the CQ station gives a nr: 1 after
the zone or nr (59/599 151 or 59/599 0011) and the
BACK station gives a nr: 2 after the zone or nr
(59/599 152 or 59/599 0012) so then the contest
committee can see clearly (?) the cheating: that MULT
and non mult QSOs in pileups (with 2 in 1s) in the
log?

What's Your opinion?

Hello Zoli,
  Many of the big USA M/M stations have two stations
for each band.  They usually have a big stack for the
run station, and a smaller monobander on a seperate
tower for the multiplier station.  That explains the
signal difference.  Most of these stations, however,
run an interlock which prevents two signals being
transmitted on the same band.  I know for sure W3LPL
has such a setup and I believe K3LR and KC1XX probably
do to.  
  These M/M stations aggressively work any station
they can find, and any DX spot, all the while
continuing to CQ. However it has been my experience
that they do watch out and have methods in place to
prevent transmitting more than 1 signal on a band at a
time. 
   What you probably heard was a station CQing in one
spot, and happened to catch the mult station make a
QSO while the CQing station was pausing for a reply.  
   If you definitely heard a station transmitting more
than one signal in the same band, I recommend emailing
the sponsors.  If enough people complain, they'll do
something about it.

That may be true of some stations, but the legit ones are very quick to
share the techniques they use...and have done so right here on this
reflector.

WRTC2002 COMMITTEE ANNOUNCES ONE MORE TEAM

How many cards are there in a pack of cards? Yes, and that is the number of 
world-class teams in WRTC2002. Fifty-two (52) two-man teams are busy shaping 
their strategies to compete for the title of  World's Best in Amateur Radio 
Team Contesting. Gold, silver and bronze medals are being polished for 
presentation to the winners.

We are delighted to have Hrane Milosevic, YT1AD and Mladen Bogdanov, YU7NU join 
the event as a wildcard selection and second team from Yugoslavia. The Yugoslav 
team will replace the N6KT/ K6NA team since Rich, N6KT is not able to come for 
reasons beyond his control. We invite Rich to be in Helsinki in spirit and 
welcome Glenn Ratman,K6NA as one of our senior referees at WRTC2002.

After WRTC 2002 I will be on a Baltic Cruise from July 19 to July 26 and
we will be docking at the ports listed above.  Would like to meet some
of the locals at least for a beer while we're in port.  Please let me know
if you are available.

I'll be in NW Connecticut for FD Weekend and am looking for a FD site to
invade for a couple hours- I'll be in Goshen  (Woodridge Lake area)-
Anything happening at Mohawk Mtn or close by?
I worked at one years ago north of Torrington but dont remember where it
was- I just remember a big mountain, rain and good, cold beer.

Message-ID: <125490A005E3D3118C9C00805FC743CC044F8D45@KAHLESS>

At noon on Friday June 14, ARRL turned on an automated "Logs Received" page
for the ARRL June VHF QSO Party.  All properly submitted electronic logs
that are receipted by the Contest Robot are automatically added to the page
on an hourly basis.

Logs that are returned to the sender with a message citing problems and
needing corrections are not receipted by the Robot and will not appear on
the list. They will only appear once corrections are made by the participant
and the re-submitted log has been receipted by the Robot.  Paper logs that
must be manually entered by the ARRL Contest Branch staff also will not
appear on the list until after submission deadlines have passed for the
contest and all data entry for the paper logs has been completed.

This automated system be utilized for all future ARRL-sponsored contests
that are supported by the Cabrillo format and the Contest Robot.

Field Day is not supported by the Robot.  Field Day logs will be posted once
all initial data entry for the event has been finished.

If you have questions, please feel free to contact me at n1nd@arrl.org or by
phone at 860-594-0232.

My station is still available for many of the summer contests.  This is
your chance to try out different radios, big antennas, amps, SO2R, etc
with low pressure contests.  I now have the SO2R setup installed and
working so you can try that stuff out.  I also have vhf/uhf setup for
6m, 2m, 70cm, though only low power and on one radio.  Bring a friend or
two and do a multi op.  There is no charge for using my station, I see
this as a chance to keep the dust off the equipment and test out changes
during the summer slow times.  Please feel free to pass this info on to

This would be an interesting statistic - I would be especially interested
from the other side of the rim - wonder if there are any major JA or other
Asian logs which could be crunched for data as to ages of the US
entrants....CT, NA etc import quite nicely into Excel!

I know Sweepstakes Checks have been looked at along these lines but this
would be even more telling!

With WriteLog in RTTY, I use the mouse only to highlight parts of his 
report that my log needs (his call  and individual pieces of his contest 
exchange).  I could type these in, but mousing is easier. The F keys are 
set up to do the rest.

Typically in an RTTY contest, I have two mouse clicks and two key presses 
per QSO when running

In CW or SSB, I would type them in rather than mouse click.

Hello Steve
NA does this very well and also CT an TR programs do the same things.  I
like NA for personal reasons.  It covers almost any contest you can think of
and some that you dream up.
A free down load can be had from http://www.ac6v.com/  I'm sure that it is
available several other places.

Hi Contesters,


There was a pretty good condx (20 and 15 m) during
AA-DX CW (and WPX CW also) but sorry there were not
enough participans. Or there were lots of
"participans" with NO activity, only looked clusters
for some rare country and do not give a little QSO to
avid contest stations. I saw ages in AA-DX CW, all
(90-95 %) conesters gave me over 36 years (I gave 40.)
I think that Asia is "old". After 20 years will not be
contesters there, or most of Asians will give 56, 66,
58, 78, 87, 95 101... How about this in USA and EU??

Congrats to W1PL, Laci (Laci bacsi), I heard his
number is 90. Long live Laci bacsi, long live ham
contest!!!

The only contest logging software I've used is TR-Log. It was recommended 
to me 5 years ago by several fellow contesters and I've never regretted the 
decision to try TR-Log. Literally, it does everything. Being in the DOS 
environment doesn't bother me. I also use it for non-contest logging. If 
you are a CW op, you will really appreciate its endless capabilities.

Steve, I would give WL a strong vote over TR.  TR is a DOS program.  Not that 
there is anything wrong with that, as Seinfeld would say.  It's just that you 
would be latching onto something from an old generation.  

I have been using WL for 3 years and, although I have my frustrations with 
it, I do really love it.  A friend of mine who is a died-in-the-wool TR geek 
had me try TR.  In a way, it is really cleaver, but I did find it quite 
difficult to used to.  TR has many wonderful features, but for me WL does the 
job nicely.

Actually, you could adopt both WL and TR, and have a really fun time learning 
both.  Throw in CT and NA for grins.  With the combination, you would 
probably have max flexibility for contesting!

Folks,

Just in time for FD the freeware version of TR has been posted to the TR web
site. It is based on the latest version, 6.68, and is fully functional for a
limited number of contests including ARRL Field Day, Stew Perry, Region One
Field Day, Japanese International DX Contest, New Zealand Field Day, South
American World  Wide Contest, ...and CW Simulator Mode. There have been many
improvements since the last freeware version released in June 2000...band map
improvements, radio support, etc. A comprehensive READ.ME file of the changes is
included in the package.

Go to http://www.qth.com/tr/free.html to retrieve it.

Don't forget how long it takes a Windoze (TM) 'puter 
to reboot following a crash, or a shutdown to refuel 
the generator at Field Day.  My vote is for DOS, your 
choice TR, CT, or my favorite, NA, for quick reboots.

Well, a number of CW Pileup tapes were once available from the KCDX Club's 
web site, but I can no longer find any mention of them there.

Message-ID: <008101c216cb$d7175d40$8600a8c0@yumaaz.adelphia.net>

With the advent of ARRL's enhanced on-line contest
reporting,
constraints on the number of contest categories
imposed by available QST space
are removed, or at least reduced. Computerized
log-checking has also reduced
the need to minimize the number of categories in
contests, since the administrative
overhead has been reduced.

I'd like to see the High Band (10, 15, 20) and Low
Band (40, 80, 160) categories
restored in the ARRL DX Test. There are a number
of reasons why I think this move
would enhance the contest world-wide:

1. Declining JA activity has made it much more
difficult for western USA
stations to compete in all categories, but
especially the all-band category,
where absorption on 40, 80, and 160 precludes big
European runs.

2. There are a lot of stations around the world
who have a small tower and tribander
in the back yard, and an assortment of low,
seriously compromised antennas for 40,
80, and 160. There is not much incentive for these
stations to get on the air in the
all band category, since they know that they
cannot turn in a competitive score. On the
other hand, a tribander can do a quite creditable
job on the high bands, which would
encourage activity.

3. The single-band category, while enabling
disadvantaged stations to be more competitive
on one single band, rapidly gets to be pretty
boring.

4. The High band/ low band categories would enable
SO2R operation, making the contest much
more interesting than single band category, where
SO2R is impracticable for most people.


To me, the payoff in any contest is to enjoy the
contest experience itself, and, afterward, to
to see how I ranked, with the data arranged the
way I like to see it presented. I
really don't care about QST listings or
certificates. By the time QST and the certificates
come out, the contest is old news. Coupled with
the ARRL's growing accent on Internet
score reporting, I think the additional categories
would add a spark of growth and an
interesting new dimension to the ARRL DX Test.

I would like to add my humble vote "yes" to this idea.

As Dave mentions in his list of reasons, I'm one of those
ops that has been doing single band efforts the last few 
years because I get whipped like a rented mule on 80/160.
Even with good conditions and high Q totals my "all band" 
scores are pathetic.

Normally I don't subscribe to the idea of making changes 
just to allow more folks into the winning circle but this is a
good idea. It will allow the low banders the weekend for
non radio stuff and the highbanders some sleep. As the
cycle swings the crowd will shift from high to low. 

The ops that win "all band" will still win "all band", of course, 
as I doubt they would be interested in this idea. Their plaque 
would still look the same with or without high/low divisions 
but their scores might be reduced overall somewhat as some
stations will refuse to move up/down.

There is no down side to Dave's idea. You might be against
it if you were serious about getting the world record but that's
a long way off now and maybe never happen as TVI and old
age wipes us out one by one.

While I will be the first to say that "we don't need no stinking new 
categories - we got too many already", I believe that Dave's proposal makes 
much sense.

i *am* old enough to remember the "hign band" and "low band" categories, and 
probably would enter one of these categories occasionally (and probably let 
someone else simultaneously do the other one as well).

Dave's points are very well taken, although my personal interest in that I'd 
love to spend lots of time on the lowbands - all of them - yet still be 
potentially competitive (hmmm, lowband SSB - maybe I'd skip that one :) then 
again, maybe not)

I have to agree wholeheartedly with Dave.  When the high and low band 
categories were created for the ARRL DX Contest in the middle seventies, it 
seemed to me like a great idea.  To paraphrase Dave's points, it seemed 
like there were a number of ways to be really competitive in high band; 
from a TH6 to a big quad, to a monobander Christmas tree.  When I first 
went off to school in Arkansas in 1976, I saw the other side.  My new 
friend WA5RTG (now K5GO) was an avid entry in the low band category, with a 
Mosley S-402 shorty-fourty (a big antenna in those days) and an assortment 
of low band wires.  As Dave points out, you don't have to focus on big 
antennas for six bands.

While I respect the efforts put forth by the single band entrants, those 
categories have little or no interest to me.

I never understood why the low and high band categories were done away 
with.  I would like to see some consideration given to bringing them back.

Yes, this is a very good idea. Many low-budget contesters find it hard to
get good antennas for all the 6 bands, yet find that a weekend stuck on just
one band can get rather monotonous. A Low or High Band entry gives a guy/gal
more enjoyment and variety without the need for the such a big antenna
set-up.

But why keep it just for the ARRL DX Test ? Surely there are other contests
where this would work as well.

Who should we write to in order to get this idea really moving ????

They were done away with to encourage more participation on the low
bands. It was thought that the ubiquitous tribander in concert with
the high band category was keeping the little guys off the low bands.

The WPX tribander/wires category is a partial answer to this that
suits the little guy.

Also, why NOT allow an entrant to submit more than one single band
entry. What harm does that do? Takes a very skilled contester to max
out two different bands.

Let me tell you why antenna- or propagation-challenged ops
did NOT like the High/Low band categories in the ARRL DX
test and why the single band categories were big improvements.

Low band means you must have good antennas for 3 difficult
bands - 40, 80 and 160 to be competitive.  Many of us can
swing one or another of those, at least on a temporary
basis but cannot get up or keep up all three.

Similarly, while tribanders are popular antennas for the
high bands, to do well in the High Band category, you need
propagation on all three bands!  This may be ok for those
in Florida, who apparently get 10 meter openings to DX even
in the punk years, but is murder for those in the Midwest.

The Single Band categories are much superior.  If you want
to operate two or three bands, you can, and still enter
you best band as a Single Band score. This is much more
likely to be competitive or "respectible" than entering
a Tri-band category with only one band's score, especially
since multipliers count on a "per-band" basis.

ARRL DXTest


I have to agree wholeheartedly with Dave.  When the high and low band 
categories were created for the ARRL DX Contest in the middle seventies, it 
seemed to me like a great idea.  To paraphrase Dave's points, it seemed 
like there were a number of ways to be really competitive in high band; 
from a TH6 to a big quad, to a monobander Christmas tree.  When I first 
went off to school in Arkansas in 1976, I saw the other side.  My new 
friend WA5RTG (now K5GO) was an avid entry in the low band category, with a 
Mosley S-402 shorty-fourty (a big antenna in those days) and an assortment 
of low band wires.  As Dave points out, you don't have to focus on big 
antennas for six bands.

While I respect the efforts put forth by the single band entrants, those 
categories have little or no interest to me.

I never understood why the low and high band categories were done away 
with.  I would like to see some consideration given to bringing them back.

At medium high latitudes when the sun-cycle will be low, an "high band" 
category will merge more or less into a SB20 entry.

Not really. Do 10 or 15, and 80 or 160. Except for the peak of the cycle, 
when one is open the other is dead.

I can see the arguments on both sides of the High Band/Low Band debate, but
what's the rationale behind allowing only one single-band entry? The ARRL DX
rules make a pretty big deal out of prohibiting this, so there must be a
reason. But on the surface, it seems like it would increase participation
and fun. There are definitely some interesting possibilities for SO2R ops.

After reading my prior post a few time, I realized how the sentence
could be read otherwise...

Let me reword.

New entry category: Two-band. Single operator only.
Entrant picks any two bands. Entry is scored in the same fashion as an
all band entry that was confined to two bands. All two-band entries
compete together by power level regardless of the bands picked. No
band-change restrictions between the two bands.

Picking the two best bands with night/day, propagation, equipment, all
to maximize score will tax operator knowledge and skill. Or operate
what your circumstances allow you.

73, Guy.

I'd like to second that idea also!  During the day, contests are
a lot of fun from the west coast, but after dark things get
pretty slow for us "vertical and low dipole" crowd.  On Friday
night, it is not worth while trying to beat out the "big guns" on
the 40 and 80 meter pileups.  The incessant calling and calling
(meat for another time) on low bands makes it impossible to work
any dx from the west coast with a small station.  The endless run
of JA's that used to make it exciting just doesn't happen any
more.  Having a low band-high band category makes good sense.  73

Our Alpha 87 manual appears to be among the "lost, strayed,  or stolen" 
category.

Does anyone have a suggestion of how we can get a replacement manual?

Actually all we really need at the moment is the section that describes the 
procedure for setting up the "Bandpass" L/C circuits.  Most of the time it 
has been used in the "Manual" mode, but it seems a good time to check the 
settings for the "Bandpass" mode in case we need to use this feature.

Thanks,

I've just got to throw my "two cents" into this one. 

The Hi/Lo Band idea is one whose time has definitely (re) arrived..

For many of us time and circumstances have conspired to make the SO/AB
catagory no longer a practical option.  Some contesters elect, as I often
do, to settle for a SO/SB which can be fun ... up to a point.  I've often
simply operated just the Hi-Bands and submitted the log in the AB
catagory.  In one instance I chose the Tribander/Wires catagory with zero
Qs on the wires.  A bit silly, but it was an option.  (Actually my 15 M
SO/SB score would have earned me a higher place finish ... but it didn't
really matter as I had a real blast that weekend.)

If the contest sponsors do no more than allow the Hi/Lo band catagories
to be designated in the listinigs (published or Web) I think it would be
fun to see how things stack up amongst those who chose this approach.  

Give the plaques and praise to the SO/AB winners, they certainly deserve
them.  But let the rest of us have some fun in our own arena.

Nuff said ...

Joe, W5ASP

I have been assigned a few hours of FD operating
on VHF/UHF, an area in which I don't have any
experience. What are some good techniques?

We will have several rigs, 6 thru 440, SSB and CW,
and I guess FM, with beams, from San Diego, with a
clear over-ocean path all the way up to Santa
Barbara. Only one station can transmit at a time.

I have 38 YU7SF contest qsos in my logging program just since 1990, and I'll
bet there'd be twice as many as that counting YU1SF qsos going back to the
early 1970s.  I don't remember any big scores from him, but he'd be there to
call me in EVERY contest.  We never said anything more than contest
exchanges, but he was a contest fixture.  I remember he always noted the
number of total contests he had participated in on his QSLs, and I think his
WAE soapbox indicated he had participated in something like 35 straight WAE
contests.  RIP Laci...

My contest logs since only 1998 have 21 entries for YU7SF, and his 
call was always instantly recogisable. The last QSO was in the 
Baltic contest on the 19th May this year.

Field Day software.

The WASH club ended up using the Network version of N3FJP's free FD package.
I've got to admit to being impressed.  The networking was smooth as silk,
the software was extremely easy & intuitive to use, and it made CW solo
operating & logging a breeze.

A lot of people in the club were surprised that it was that good a package
for a free download, and several are going to recommend that we go ahead and
register it.  Just wait till they see how low the registration fee is...

If some of his other offerings are this good or better, I may just drop CT
as my contest logger of choice since I bought 6.13 at Dayton many, many,
many moons ago!

I believe the uplink was 2.4GHz, and I think the downlink was either 2M or

The "official" ARRL Summary sheet shows it listed as "Satellite".

(TIP: Use the ARRL Summary form and mail it in ... that way you're sure
all the required information is filled in.)

Tom-
The CORRECT band to show satellites contacts on is SAT. However, if your
program does not have that (like ours- WL, or older versions of NA) then log
the satellite Q's on any band- or the TX freq - or a band that didn't have
any other Q's. We logged them on 220. Then make a note to the sponsor and
log checker as to what you have done.
The important thing is that they are identitied as SATELLITE contacts.
GL to you guys. We haven't talleyed our score yet, but it should be close to
our score from last year. Bet we are in a horse race for MO state honors.

P.S. on Friday May 31, I dropped off 20 pounds (9 Kg) of QSL cards at the ARRL

The correct band would be Satellite. Otherwise I would assume it to be your
recieved freq. My reasoning would be that is where you copied the
exchange. Just like in a split op on HF, the DX tx freq is the one that goes on
the QSL card not your tx freq. (Downlink is 70cm)

Just one man's opinion, I could be wrong.

My favorite is "Thanks for Nevada, that's a new one."

The best on-site event happened to me a few years ago. I was coaching a new 
general at his first FD and first time on HF. I went through the logging, 
exchange, etc, and demonstrated a few QSO's. I turned the rig over to him and 
went to the rest room. When I returned he hadn't made a single QSO. I asked 
what the problem was. He said he couldn't tune anyone in. Puzzled, I asked 
for an example. He set the dial, as you would on a VHF radio, to an even 
frequency, like 144.940. The only problem was that there was no one zero beat 
on 14.280 or 14.290, so he couldn't work anyone. 

But then, FD is where many of us learned the inside skinny about hamming.

Patience is a virtue.

Put the lime in the cocoanut..............

I feel your pain. I heard the same thing. I also heard one of our ops S&Ping
with the last three letters of the club call. I thought I would try and take
a stab at changing their operating habits, but when I asked, "Do you operate
HF much?", one said "not at all," so I didn't bother. I think these guys
must be having fun otherwise, why would they come out, but it sure is hard
to be in the concert hall when most of the piano players seem to be playing
with their feet. Maybe I should be more forthright in trying to "correct"
them, but I just can't seem to bring myself to do it so I just sit by and
bite my tongue.

I don't think that "forthright correcting" is what is needed.  A "kinder,
gentler" approach is what's needed.

Those of us who can operate, need to demonstrate the proper way to operate,
so that these newbies can learn from it and hopefully emulate what they've
seen.

It seems that many of them are intrigued by the process of running stations,
even on CW, when they may not be able to copy themselves.

Let's face it, when their shack is on their belt, they don't get any
experience or training on how to work stations quickly and efficiently.

A couple of years ago, I stopped by a local Field Day set up at a very
visible public park.  They were set up in a large pavilion with antennas
hanging all around.  There were large signs, lots of literature for visitors
to pick up, and people hanging around, ready to talk to visitors.   They had
two stations.  One was empty, the other was manned by one person, with a
crowd gathered around watching him.  I watched for about 15 minutes while he
tuned around and worked no one!  Do you think this was exciting to visitors?
I think not.  I didn't know any of these folks so I just left, but they
obviously had no clue what to do on the air.

We also need to remember that those we're working at the other end of the
path may be equally challenged and need encouragement, rather than
criticism.

We have a pre-FD meeting about 2-3 days before the weekend. At that time, 
we try to give any new ops, or any old ops who still persist, 'suggestions' 
on what to say and what NOT to say... with particular attention to what NOT 
to say. For the most part, it seems to work pretty well, though some will 
revert, regardless of what they know is right.

Of course, we Do have to remember that this is a TRAINING EXERCISE and not 
a contest, so should be willing to 1) cut everyone some slack, and 2) 
attempt to further "suggest" possibly better (e.g. more 
appropriate/efficient) methods of getting the information passed without 
unnecessary verbiage. But I don't necessarily think that it's all that 
appropriate to correct them WHILE they're on the air (unless they wish to 
be), and often in front of a number of their friends. Doing so can often 
cause you to lost an otherwise good operator.

Tom Hammond   N0SS

Don't forget the 20M op who never makes a Q because he can't "find a clear 
spot".

Why?

That's one of the things about Field Day ... to teach these folks proper
operating procedures!  If we want to build the contest ranks, we
contesters must be the ones to pass along what we know to those who show
any kind of interest.  If we don't take the time to teach proper
operating procedures, we can't turn around and complain about poor
operating procedures.  

Our Field Day set-up included the new "GOTA" station ... which had none
other than K1TO teaching the newbies proper operating procedures!  If
you're going to learn, it might as well be from one of the best.

That's what Field Day is all about.

In past years when this has happened to me, for fun I'd sometimes say 
something like:

"OK W7ABC 1A Georgia"
"2A Washington"
"W7ABC Thanks QRZ Field Day K7AW"

And take the frequency.  

Mean, I know.    :)

Partly because I'm lazy, mostly because, these aren't a bunch of 12 year old
kids. As a matter of fact, at the ripe old age of 43 I was the youngest guy
out.

I have NEVER understood this timeless Newington pronouncement.  Somebody
show me why accuracy and efficiency should not be rewarded, especially
during an Emergency Preparedness Exercise.

I know I'm preaching to the choir.

My only guess is that it is an attempt to "not turn away the curious
newcomer."  But what does that tell us about our image to the others?
Perception is everything whether based in reality or not.  We can't ignore
this, and my guess is a substantial investment in this area by contesters
would yield an excellent return.

I think having Dennis in the Marketing chair at the ARRL could be a good
turn for contesting, but not if we sit around and watch.

Well, unless you're about to strangle the guy in the tent with his own mic
cord if says "please copy, you're..." one more time.  Better for contesting
if you just keep THAT to yourself  :)

Then again, I copied some really weird code this weekend.

Message-ID: <200206251540.g5PFe0Tf019363@rm-rstar.sfu.ca>

I was recently introduced to Beaconsee and at one station where
I would like to use it, relying on the internet for clock
syncronization is not realistic. Does anyone know of a
cost effective means of doing this? I have been looking
for an "atomic clock" which connects to the computer,
similar to an alarm clock I have, but so far I have
not found one. One product I found that uses satellites
costs around $500, which is out of the question.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

And you're exactly right.  If it's promoted as a contest - even lightly -
we'll lose a lot of folks that just don't want to be or think they can be
"competitive".  Without getting into the psychology of it all, I think the
contest community's best return on time invested would be to...

1) Be there at Field Day and teach, teach, teach...
2) Suggest a Field Day challenge of another local club - say CW-against-CW
or something like that so it doesn't require that all operators be fully
committed to compete.
3) Right after Field Day, when everybody is still full of good memories,
suggest some kind of Sweepstakes "event" within the club for making, say,
100 QSOs or working 70 sections.  Challenge another local club in some way.
4) Remind folks about the easy-going, friendly August NAQP (or whatever the
equivalent is in your QTH)
5) Pounce on the guys that are having the best time and organize a low-key
multi-op for WW or something.

Field Day is mostly a competition between one's own group, Mother Nature,
and the Forces of Murphy.  For those of us that take it to the next level,
we can do that, too.  It would be a good idea to add to the Field Day write
up - in the spirit of enhancing contest coverage in QST without adding
pages - commentary to the effect of, "If you enjoyed the freewheeling
hurly-burly of Field Day, try entering the following events..."

......AA4GA says..

"OK W7ABC 1A Georgia"
"2A Washington"
"W7ABC Thanks QRZ Field Day K7AW"

And take the frequency.  

Mean, I know.    :)

K3FT opines..

Mean? NO WAY!  It's all part of the game. If
another op gives the opening because they are
unaware of a technique.. then it's fair game to
take and go! It's part of learning. 

They will wonder 'what happened?' (maybe!) and
that might provoke them to learn something.

It is like any other effort. If you play a sport
and the other team is short of info on a proper
technique to play and you see the advantage and
take it.. well... life is...'

One thing about 'real life on the air contesting'
it plays no favorites and gives no quarter. It's
equitable.. and all can learn the tricks and
tips.

Message-ID: <Springmail.0994.1025021342.0.46909400@webmail.pas.earthlink.net>

K5ZM (at K7AW) said he heard:

>"CQ Field Day, W7ABC..."
>
>"K7AW.."
>
>"K7AW, go ahead.." (??!!)

And it's not just FD.

There is a prominent local W1-area VHF/UHF college club station that operates
exactly
this way during VHF contests (at least the two in which I have operated and
listened to them...and sometimes they even omit the "go ahead" part). That is,
when they can actually hear any of the stations calling them, since turning a
beam occasionally also seems to be outside their skill set. I won't mention
the station specifically, but it is located at a famous Institute of
Technology in Massachusetts. Some operators/stations are just painful to
listen to.

But once in a while, a good op shows up at the local club FD site. The most
important lesson in contest operating I *ever* learned was on FD, when I took
over from the club hotshot on 40SSB, and was incredibly tense and nervous. I
starting talking so fast nobody could understand me, got all worked up when I
couldn't copy a guy calling me or if two guys called at once. The club
hotshot, Howie Gould, then K1HHN, now W9HG, tapped me on the shoulder and said
"Come on now, take a deep breath and relax. Don't get so worked up. This is
supposed to be fun, right? So have fun!". 

That was in 1969 I think.

And I'm still having fun. Thanks, Howie.

Speaking of which, I think I heard more bugs and Lake Erie swings over

Thanks for the replies to my previous message, but I guess
the title I chose did not convey the idea I wanted.

I am looking for a means of syncronizing the computer's
clock WITHOUT HAVING AN INTERNET CONNECTION.

I am aware of some of the software that will do it
via the internet, but in the particular situation I
have in mind, using the internet is not an option.

Any thoughts???

Thanks again.

Check out this web site:

  http://www.radiocontrolledclock.com/

They sell clocks that sync off low-frequency transmissions of WWVB.  One model
has a serial port which can be used to synchornize your computer:

I, for one, am grateful for every contact I make during FD weekend with a 
new station or operator that might normally never get on during HF contest 
operations.

As I work the "inefficient ops", I make a point, not always, but often, of 
thanking them for the contact, wishing them a "good morning'" before I give 
the exchange, and even take a second to ask the op where the exact location 
and setup situation might be.

Adherence to ultra rate highly efficient contest QSO exchange format ? -

A conventional GPS that has a standard serial connection can furnish 
accurate time synch to the PC. Not sure what software is required, but I 
believe UI-View has it built-in. Maybe other products as well.

I was considering adding a cheap GPS to this computer for time synch, but 
then was able to hook it to my home network instead, so now it gets its 
time synch from the internet via freeware NetLab 1.4 instead. Back when I 
shopped, I found GPS refurbs as low as $50 (TripMate brand).

The very early computer clocks could be adjusted for drift. Don't know if 
any motherboards still offer that - maybe you could hack an outboard 
circuit to do it for your motherboard, then have the opsys reset the 
software clock from that periodically??

While we're on the subject, and understand I don't consider myself of
your cr?me de le cr?me contester types.  I do enjoy contesting and work
hard to get the rate up and keep it there... HOWEVER, most noticeable to
me during the just passed field day are the number of stations who call
a station running a frequency and immediately sending their report as
part of their initial call - even during a pileup.  So, in the middle of
our pileups, a station is trying hard to work us, but cannot seem to
wait until he knows we're calling him. This appears more pervasive and
critical than some simple grammar "you are" stuff.  If you're calling a
station, you best make darned sure he's talking to you before you send
your exchange. On a couple of occassions, stations that did that to
me... Often waited until they were the ONLY ones left trying to work me,
and then were told to "make sure I've got your callsign before you go
sending a report" That technique to me, is MUCH more important than "you
are blah blah."  I can ignore the grammar issue...  The other however is
annoying, and happens VERY too often.

And how many of us (myself included) actually sent the report correctly
each time? 

(using N0SS since he can take it out on me personally if he so desires!)

KC0CZI QRZ FIELD DAY
N0SS
N0SS DE KC0CZI 2A MO 
KC0CZI DE N0SS 2A MO 


Suffix-only dropping is also pervasive and annoying.  That isn't a
callsign.  What's your FULL callsign?  Surely you guys realize how
annoying it is to have to back up in your logging software and fix the
call.

And what about stations that REFUSE to use phonetics even when asked...
Can't begin to tell you how many times that happened this past weekend.

All in all however - those issues are good for receivers to deal with as
prepping them for real disasters when calling stations will not follow
your requested formatics.

However, I totally realize that this is NOT a contest... The desire to
get and maintain a high-rate is more as a training and exercise in
technique to ensure that operators are efficient handling messages
rapidly (in whatever method works best), though formatted exchanges go a
LONG way to conditioning that listening to only expect certain things...
In a real disaster, there wouldn't be any pre-conditioned formattics
(especially in a tactical environment).  But, again, it's not a contest
-  it's a disaster preparedness exercise.  Again - our primary interest
in ALL of this is to GET THE MESSAGE THROUGH.  For Field Day.. I tend to
make some exceptions, and remember them as training points later.

Of more interest to me... How many of your clubs actually treated your
setup and/or tear down as a disaster response?  I suspect not nearly
enough.

Once again, I find myself essentially in-tune with what Bob, and some
others, have written.

Instead of ridiculing our FD brethren, they need to be encouraged, and shown
HOW to do it.  We all had to start some-time, some-how,  and I wonder how
many of us would like to hear recordings of our first ever QSO's, contest or
not..............?

Sadly, in the collective, we have managed to leave a pathetic legacy of HOW
NOT TO OPERATE for all the world to hear, and emulate.

WHERE do these gentlemen learn the "please copy"?  NETS and LISTS, of
course.  Wonderful examples of how not to operate......

WHERE do these gentlemen learn that you don't even have to know the other
station's call, before calling?  PACKET, of course.
Perhaps the ULTIMATE example of non-operating.

We have met the enemy, and it is us.

Operating a casual 1B this happened to me several times.  This actually
turns the frequency over to me.  I send 1B Georgia and W7ABC comes back with
2A Washington.  Its also slows things down.

I also noted extra comments (such as North Carolina sure beats Georgia).
Several also told me "when last heard" but since a report is not needed I
can't figure out why this is said.

Regarding the phrase "please copy" I hear this now in local traffic
handling.   As an old hand (years ago ) of the National Trafiic System
(local, TCC,  and both RN5 and 4RN) this must be a new technique.  I hope
ARES does not teach this and I am asking the Georgia SM about this.  Its
extra words that aren't needed whether a contest or an emergency test
exercise.

I did note some excellent operators even among the young and the YL's
recruited to bring in contacts.
K1AR's first contacts were at a field day before he was first licensed (in
the July Contest Column in CQ)...bet there are a lot of us out there!

With all due apologies to Jim's very insightful post, it is NOT us.
That "please copy" can probably be traced to less than 50 hams in the
US, operating with greatly exaggerated opinions of themselves.

I remember checking into the 20 Meter county hunters net as I was
leaving Church, and thought I would drive north to hand out a few
relatively rare ones for GA. Apparently, the MC, a K2, had announced
some time
before not to use phonetics, and I was soundly chastised. I replied to
him that our minister, as a general rule, did not allow pickups in the
sanctuary, and that he could "kiss my ass"!

In this case, a virus which has infected 10s of thousands.

Dxpeditions are another cause. When they ask for "last 2", do what
9K2ZZ does. LOG them as such. His mgr. has explicit instructions to
reject any QSL logged with a 2 letter call, and to put such on the
original QSL with a note to that effect!

It's not us, but until we have the guts to openly criticize and inform
a newcomer for such, we share the blame.

1) Smart band map (similar or better then in TRlog)
2) Fully user configurable
3) Possibility to add tests with non standard rules and point and multipler
systems
5) CW and RTTY sending and  receiving
6) Support of all the types and brands of radios
7) Must be able to control antenna switch, linear amp, rotator
8) Build in Digital voice keyer
9) Ability to record audio of the entire contest with time stamps
10) Full support of M/S and M/M (things like passing mult from band to band,
keeping logs on different computer of the network in sync, provision of tx
inhibit on all the other trcvrs when one of them is in TX mode fo M/S etc)
11) On the fly and post contest analyses of band changes, rate by hours,
calls continental distribution ets (see post utility in TRlog)
12) Super check partial and other user database support
13) should be very fast even with several comps in the network and few
thousand QSO in the log
14)Should run across the range of platforms (Win95/98/NT/2000/XP )
15) should be reasonable in hardware requirements (should run on
Pentium90/133 with 16Mg of RAM)
I could go on an on but will better stop here :)

Every contester has a different idea of what the "ideal" should
be.  There is no single contest logger that is best in all
respects - any more than there is a single best antenna or best
rig.

If you're serious about writing a contest logger, then just do
it - and start by including the features and the contests that you
yourself prefer.  It'll take longer than you think, and it may be
even longer before before anyone will buy the software.  When they
do, however, you'll soon get all the feedback you need.  If the
software is free, on the other hand, some potential users may feel
you're not fully commited to the project.

Hallo Paul,

here in Europe we can use the DCF-77 transmitter nr Frankfurt
on 77,5 kHz or MSF in England on 60 kHz to do that.

You will need a software that can decode the time signals
and then set the PC clock. SpecLab by DL4YHF 
(see www.qsl.net/dl4yhf) does is.

However.. I am not sure if you can receive DCF-77 or
MSF in North America.

Any thoughts???

Until those that feel they are prepared for disaster communications are

IMHO, Field Day should be a "social event" with some directed interest

Hi Paul,

No problem.  All you need is a GPS that outputs NEMA
sentences (most do) with an RS-232 cable.  Then, go to
http://www.kaska.demon.co.uk/tardis.htm and download
Tardis 200, a shareware atomic clock program that works
with Internet sources, or a GPS that outputs NEMA sentences.

I used it during the VHF contest (from a mountaintop w/no internet)
for syncing JT44, and it gave me 0.127 second accuracy!  Not too bad.

I talked with Georgia ARES/NTS personnel and the phrase "please copy" did
not come from them.
They all noticed this too.

The ball is in out court as contesters to get to the clubs and help them
train their operators in good techniques.   Most of the field day operators
are not contesters and welcome advice as they want to improve the club
score.   I told the SEC that even a slow op could add 5 or 10 QSO's per hour
if they followed good procedures.   I was told that many of the young
operators were given a script to follow
in making QSOs.   One YL (she is now a General) at a local club made over
500 SSB QSOs following a script last year.

Field Day is a great opportunity for contesters to make an impact and train
new contesters.  Its a big weekend for many clubs.   You might even learn
something!

For what little I'm sure it'll be worth... Even though my operation has 
been 95% CW, I began operating in sectional phone nets in about 1959, 
though it wasn't until probably 1965 or so that I began hearing "Please 
copy" used by some operators. By the late '60s it was quite a bit more 
prominent (at least in the Midwest). I believe it's still seen regularly on 
a number of phone nets... usually local or sectional, rather than regional 
or larger.

Granted, it's not good operating procedure, but it IS something many ops 
have grown up with and will continue to do so until those who use it stop 
doing so.

I think, for many people, the "please copy" acts as an instinctive "bridge"
between the callsign and the report in a situation where a signal report is not
required. We are used to giving a "59" before the required exchange, and when we
can't start the exchange with the standard "59", we want to replace it with
something else.

You rarely hear "please copy" in ARRL DX or CQ WPX etc., where the report starts
with a signal report...

I catch myself somethimes wanting to say it as well, just to smooth out the
verbage in the report...I'm no linguist, but it seems to flow better...Whether
it be "please copy" or "your" or "good morning, your" or whatever...It also
seems a little more friendly...It's been going on for years...I remember my
first Field Day in 1975, one of the old timers said it in every QSO...That still
sticks in my head and is the reason the phrase still comes to my mind when
giving a SSB report in Field Day...Must have been more prevalent back then ?? I
don't know...I stuck to CW this year.......

73, and hope to see you in the RAC Canada Day Contest July 1st 0000z-2359z
(where a signal report IS required, so I'll be testing out my theory!!)

For a wireless solution using GPS satellites, look at TAPR's

Message-ID: <B4965255B95AD41185EE00D0B74791F2043C120F@axatl03.cos.agilent.com>

I have poked fun at myself for years for using "Please copy" in contests. I 
know I shouldn't, but I can't help myself. I think it goes back to my 
hometraining; I can still hear my mother telling me to say "Please," and "Thank 
you," for practically every social situation.

But really, "Please copy" is so much more friendly, more social, and, more 
importantly, a more effective attention-getting signal than an abrupt 
"Thirty-seven alpha Sacramento Valley." What, no "QSL", no "Roger", not even a 
"Thanks" preceding the exchange? "Please copy" is a very efficient way of 
saying, "Pick up your pencil and turn on the DSP or whatever you have to do; 
here comes my exchange. You ready?"

I have resisted the pressure to become less human and more robotic, especially 
during Field Day when new hams and the public are listening in such greater 
numbers than during any other time. "Please copy" is my little tiny way of 
making the scary a little bit less scary.

After September 11, a lot was written in the press about how people had become, 
at least for the moment, a little bit nicer to each other in the enormity and 
the shock of what had happened, not only in New York, but everywhere else in 
the country. People honked their horns just a little bit less, and said "Hello" 
just a little bit more. In a real real, you know, nationwide emergency, I bet 
you that hearing an occasional "Please copy" is going to give you a slightly 
more reassuring feeling as you pass traffic that is largely depressing and 
terrifying.

You guys sometimes make a mountain out of a molehill!

W6LX said that.

Scott Nichols sagely noted that....
"I think, for many people, the "please copy" acts
as an instinctive "bridge"...." and also noted 
"..It also seems a little more friendly..."

K3FT opined.. What I learned from chatting with
the pros in this world is that even though the
guiding rule is 'A-B-C' (Accuracy, Brevity,
Clarity) when transmitting traffic, the all
important, yet intangible 'human factor' must be
considered.  

The insertion of the 'Please Copy...' prior to
the start of the message (on voice circuits)
helps to impart a small but valuable bit of 'the
personal touch' in the mix.

Another purpose is to give the recieving
operators mind a chance to 'lock in' and be
absolutely ready to copy what follows. Even
though you know that the other guy is ready
because he responsded 'K3FT send your traffic'
and you start transmitting.. a 'Please copy...'
before the 'number xxx...' and the rest of the
preamble simply gives him a 1/4 of  a second to
energize the brain/body to begin actually
writing/typing.  The slight delay allows him to
move from the act of transmiting 'K3FT, Send your
traffic', put down the mic, ready his
pencil/fingers, and be absolutely ready to copy
whatever you send next. 

Regardless of how good you are, there is ALWAYS a
slight delay from the time you stop transmitting
your readiness to receive and  your full
readiness to copy. The 'Please copy' allows the
human factor of a pleasantry to occur while
providing that needed delay so the reciever can
be assured of having all in place to copy.

That is all it really is. What I was taught is we
strive for 'A-B-C' but maintaining a small bit of
'human pleasantry' in the mix is OK.

"Please copy" is probably the littlest, most insignificant of our fish to
fry.  It is hardly more of a vermiform appendix than our own repetitive and
useless "599".  If we decide to beat the newbies up for a transgression on
this level, it will hardly be a wonder if they decide to take their ham
radio minutes elsewhere.

Eu Sprint - Spring 2002 
Rules and All Time Records can be seen at <http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.

Dear OM, 
Here are the results of the first two EU Sprint contests of 2002. 
The winners of the first two sprints of the year are Timo, OH1NOA 
(operating as OH1F), and Dave, G4BUO.

SSB. Timo achieved the fourth highest SSB score ever and the second 
highest score of all time on 20m. During the SSB Sprint 20 was the best 
band and most entrants made great scores on this band. Second place 
went to Peter, YL7A. He beat OH1F on both 40 and 80 but Timo's 102 QSOs 
on 20 made the difference. Third place goes to Ran, UW5Q. Thirteen 
station made more than 150 valid QSOs and this includes some new faces, 
which is a good sign!

CW. Dave, G4BUO, won his second CW Sprint and - for the first time - the 
three highest scores are all from the same country: England. Second place 
goes to Steve, G0CKP, and third belongs to Andy, G4PIQ/P. Conditions were 
not so good as during the SSB leg on the previous weekend. 20m was still 
the best band but QSO numbers were much lower.

2002 Eu Sprint Plaques. Please remember that each country winner will 
receive a colourful certificate but - at the end of the year - the big prizes
will go 
to the three highest combined scores. To qualify you must have entered at least

three of the four European Sprint contests in 2002.

Autumn 2002. Please remember that the next two events will take place in 
October as follows: 
SSB: first Saturday in October - 5 October 2002 - managed by I2UIY 
CW: second Saturday in October - 12 October 2002 - managed by OK2FD 
Rules and All Time Records can be seen at <http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.

Finally, we were very sorry to hear of the passing of Laci, YU7SF. He was a
great supporter of all contests including the Sprints and we will all miss his
callsign in future events.

EU SPRINT 2002
In 1994 the EU Sprint Gang (I2UIY, OK2FD, DL6RAI, and G4BUO) organized  the 
first European Sprint contests. For 2001 there have been some rule changes, 
introducing an awards programme and bringing the Spring Sprints forward  in 
the  calendar.  You can find past scores and other  information  about  the 
sprints  by  visiting  the official EU Sprint web  site  at  this  address: 
<http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.
The BIG news is that now we will award a certificate to the winners in each 
country but this is not all. Three nice plaques will be awarded for the top 
three scores from all four contests combined. Therefore, please red  circle 
the  four EU Sprint saturdays on your calendar, we will be looking for  you 
starting October 5!

EU SPRINT 2002
The  EU Sprint Gang hereby invites you to participate in the two  European 
Sprint Contests held in Autumn 2002.

ENTRANTS: any licensed station may enter the Sprint. European stations  can 
work everybody; stations outside of Europe can work only European stations.
CATEGORIES: Single Operator ONLY. Only ONE signal may be aired at one time.
DATES:
EU SPRINT Autumn:
  * SSB: first Saturday in October - 5 October 2002 - managed by I2UIY
  * CW: second Saturday in October - 12 October 2002 - managed by OK2FD
TIME: from 15:00 UTC until 18:59 UTC.
BANDS: 20, 40 and 80 metres only. 
Pilot frequencies are: SSB: 14.250, 7.050, 3.730. CW: 14.040, 7.025, 3.550
EXCHANGE: all of the following data MUST BE PART OF THE EXCHANGE: 
  a) your callsign, 
  b) the other station's callsign,
  c) your serial number starting from 001 (RST not required),
  d) your name or nickname.
Please  note  that  BOTH stations MUST repeat  BOTH  callsigns  DURING  the 
exchange. 
A valid exchange is: "OK2FD de I2UIY 118 Paolo" while "OK2FD 118 Paolo"  is 
NOT a valid exchange.
SPECIAL  QSY  RULE: if any station initiates a call (by sending  CQ,  QRZ?, 
etc.),  he is permitted to work ONLY one station on the same frequency.  He 
must  thereafter  move  AT LEAST 2 (two) kHz before  he  may  call  another 
station or before he may solicit again (CQ, QRZ?, etc.) other calls.
VALID  CONTACTS:  valid contacts are QSOs correctly logged  and  confirmed. 
Each  operator  may  use ONE and ONLY one name during the  Sprint.  If  the 
exchange is copied incorrectly, that operator will receive zero (0) points. 
In case of miscopied callsigns, both stations will receive zero (0)  points 
for that QSO.
SCORING:  each valid QSO counts one 1 (one) point. The final score  is  the 
total number of QSOs.
AWARDS: Colorful certificates will be issued to the winners of each Sprint, 
and  to the leaders in each country. A special plaque will also be  awarded 
for  the top three scores from all four contests combined. To  be  eligible 
for this award an operator must enter at least three of the Sprints in  the 
year.  Results will be forwarded as soon as possible to Leagues,  magazines 
and bulletins.
LOGS:  a single chronological log is required. Please send us your log  via 
email or on a floppy disk, if you use computer for logging. Use any of  the 
available software or send a plain ASCII file. A separate summary sheet  is 
also  required. Please send us the right files: for DL2NBU  software,  send

Sweepstakes is a contest where the "you're" is kind of an intro to the
serial number, "You're number 123 Bravo", etc. and actually makes sense - if
that really matters.

I don't see the big deal.  The rate is generally slow for one thing and I'd
rather see many of the other non-contester-isms mentioned in these threads
dealt with before we worry about the "you're".  I would agree that a
newcomer should not be "taught" to use the phrase, but trying to rid an old
timer of it is a waste of time.  Besides, what would FD be without some
Lid-isms?

Is this all we have to complain about? ;-)

Gentlemen,

we finished K1Baker QSL printing today, and filling process started
immediately.
Some of you will get lucky and confirm the QSO(s) in F-hafen, and some
others in F-inland, since Hrane will bring small quantity along.

Your QSL requests should be sent to Roman RZ3AA for SSB, and YT1AD for other
modes.

Hi Lou:

Nothing whatsoever.

However, when you are in a real emergency situation, the less unnecessary 
verbiage the better. You want to get the important information passed 
without any extraneous traffic.

Hi,

I guess this whole thread is preaching to the converted. I don't imagine too
many ops who aren't at least casual contesters subscribe, so I'm not sure
what the point of the thread is.

Be that as it may...

So that my message doesn't further preach, here's my suggestion: why don't
we keep a list of contesters willing to hold seminars for clubs about
operating techniques for Field Day.

The ARRL/RAC organizations can distribute through the affiliated club system
a notice of our intent along with an invitation to contact the keeper of
said list for a referral to a volunteer contester in or near their area. If
someone could donate a small bit of server space, we could even
semi-automate the function. Perhaps its something that could go on the, oh,
just for the sake of argument, ARRL servers. This list may need to be broken
down into regions: if so, I volunteer to keep list for Canada.

Perhaps someone could even convince, horror of horrors, QST to print in May
QST a primer on contesting -- oops, sorry, operating -- for Field Day. I'll
be sending an e-mail to that effect to N1BKE shortly.

We know all this stuff, so it doesn't help to rant about it here. It won't
help to put it into NCJ, either. Sorry to break with tradition in trying to
offer a HELPFUL suggestion   ;=)   but I think it's something worthwhile,
particularly if we want to try and siphon off some FD enthusiasm into
contesting.

C'mon guys. The "please copy" issue is a metaphor for the learning curve we 
all have gone through. I can't believe you are having a literal debate over 
it. 

It is prevalent in FD because we are doing what Elmer's should do, teach our 
operating skills and values to the newcomers.  Sometimes it is most effective 
by direct instruction. Sometimes by demonstration and example. Yes, sometimes 
through humor and trial by fire.

I wasn't able to go to FD last weekend, but I got on and made a few hundred 
QSO's, taking the time to politely correct the uneducated, make suggestions 
of technique to the unskilled and having the patience to work someone calling 
endlessly or out of turn. That's why it is not a contest, but an operating 
event.

Get a grip. This is supposed to be fun.

Tom, K5RC

In-Reply-To: <200206261548.g5QFmFKF007548@contesting.com>
Message-ID: <4.3.2.7.0.20020626224526.01d69ed0@pop.pacific.net.hk>

VA7NT needs to accurately set a computer's clock without resorting to
the Internet.

At VR2BG, the radio computer is a dedicated DOS machine, with no
connection to the outside world other than a floppy drive & serial port
connection to another machine with a 10+ year old copy of LapLink.

An equally retro approach to setting the radio computer's clock is used -
a wristwatch.  I set the watch at work from time to time & know it's well
within a second for the next week or so.  When I forget to do so before
the weekend, there is always JJY, BPM & (if the band is open)
WWV/WWVH to fall back on.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] July QST and CQ cover arrive
Message-ID: <7a.28ed8f34.2a4bcc61@aol.com>

Having been out of town on a business trip for over a week, the PO box was 
stuffed with goodies - QST, CQ, fishing magazines, etc.  The latest issue of 
QST was in pristine condition while all I found of CQ was the cover pages 
with several rips and tears.  Those staples through the thin cover material 
just does not stand up to the rigors of today's Postal Service employee 
handling.  Please bring back the days of plastic bags or brown paper 
wrappers!  Although I get my share of ripped and torn magazine covers, this 
is the first time I can remember not getting the whole magazine in some form. 
 

So, for CQ, all I can tell you is what is on the front cover:

Photo of W7HUY on his tower with an inset close-up of him strapped-on and 
waving.

Caption is: "Antenna Special!"

I agree with Jim.  Any time you exchange non-essential
information it would be better to call a spade a spade.
Replace all non-essential information with the words:
"delay delay delay" and your contesting will slowly
improve as you begin to tire of saying "delay delay delay".

Message-ID: <012801c21d97$35b95200$48bb180a@9byjx01>

Quick glance at the logs submitted so far show that less than 2% of 
entrants into the CQ WPX CW contest were "rookies" which 
CQ defines as licensed less than 3 years (S/O category only). 

22 scores out of approx 1,221. Now the deadline for submission 
is July 1st, so that might be somewhat of a factor. 

But the question is "Where are all the rookies?" 
Maybe better yet "Where are all the coaches for possible rookies?" 

Some food for thought and discussion now that Field Day is over. 

Best of health to all, 
Eric K9GY

Subject: [CQ-Contest] WRTC is indeed upon us!  Some thoughts on a contender
Message-ID: <016b01c21da7$30871be0$62f1a118@tampabay.rr.com>

Tnx K1DG for doing some WRTC/Radiosport marketing - as all who follow this
reflector know I took a vow of silence as far as operating event promotion
is considered until it is time for me to promote the FQP next Spring - by
the way did you see how many guys have....ooops, BAD OJ - NO ORANGE!


The WRTC is something indeed special and I am sorry to once again miss
attending it - it is a personal goal to attend one of them some day - I
would kind of like to cheer on my fellow Florida Contest Group members and
the other US teams.  The FCG offers defending co-champ K1TO and N2NL - who
is out to see if youth can overcome the keen minds (and crafty
competitiveness) of the WRTC's sages: two time champs K1TO and N5TJ - not to
mention a cast of other absolutely fantastic teams from around the world.

This past weekend was Field Day here in the states and one of the best parts
of the weekend for me was shaking the hands of K1TO and WC4E who were there
along with several other Florida Contest Group Members helping the local
Emergency Preparedness club who several of us contest guys have teamed up
with over the past few years.

I wished "Dahs" and "Dit" a safe and fun time in Europe...WC4E will be there
as a an adjudicator (that's judge for those in Rio Linda)

When I shook K1TO's, hand I wished him luck and I don't think I have ever
quite felt so motivated to do such - you see Dan is more than a contester,
he is a model ham.

I had just watched him spend most of his weekend Elmering new hams at the
Get On The Air station at our Field Day setup - the GOTA position is
intended to allow hams who do not have HF exposure to see what the
attraction is!  He spent hours mentoring newcomers - and he did it like a
parent teaching his children - not barking at them when they said "please
copy" and "thank you for 59 Colorado you are" - but subtly letting them know
that this was inefficient procedure, why not do this instead...you will make
more contacts!

Today I saw the first fallout of his weekend's investment in the future of
ham radio contesting - a husband and wife team that were mentored by Dan
this past weekend apparently had some real fun at Field Day...they have
since contacted the Florida Contest Group and applied for membership.

This past few years my health has gone downhill but when Dan heard I wanted
to get the multi-op in shape for the Fall '01 contest season his first words
were "HOW CAN I HELP?"  I am NOT alone, Dan has helped many club members
with antenna projects and in so doing forsaken his own station which has
been down for of a year from a major lightning strike.

No matter who wins in Finland I consider Dan to be the world's #1 contester.
I have known him since we were teenagers just getting the contest bug - and
I consider him one of my best friends.  Dan practices what a lot of us
preach - and he delivers....

I encourage hams who have not met Dan before to seek him out in OH - no, not
to get him drunk so he will have a hangover during the WRTC/Radiosport [he
will see you coming!], but to meet the man who I am proud to call my
friend...I have know him for almost 30 years now (ouch) and can tell you I
have been exposed to ham's and ham radio all of my life through my family
and have yet to find a better example of what a contester should be.  K1TO
doesn't just win when he is contesting he puts back into the hobby.

Many of the WRTC competitors I am certain are like Dan in many ways and in
this I am happy to say that yes, I am a contester...not as good as, but
still trying to be like my contesting friends, especially  K1TO.  We are a
vibrant community who often gets slammed but the fact that our scores
increase year after year indicates to me we are doing better at finding ways
to communicate with each other be it through better understanding of antenna
systems or mastering the elusive high end SO2R technique!

WRTC does us all proud - I know that the competitors will engage in the
highest level of competitive operating - including its ethics and morality!
Beside how can I not like a bunch of guys with OJ in their calls?


Good Luck Dan, that

Kid's One Terrific Operator

Go get  'em Samurai Dan!

Jim, K4OJ

....we need to work on that Kid part - anyone got Grecian Formulae? :-)

And a LOOONG series of V's before each CW contest Q should aid in the

Ward, You are absolutely right on.

It does not surprise me that others would rather have a worked station just 
"auto puke" the standard format exchange info.

Being able to Pavlovian keyboard enter a more properly spit out exchange 
info format,
in the exact sequence that it is to be entered into the computer log program,
so that editing or the tab key need never be bothered

Now that keeps it to a real test of communications skills.

This is already being done Jim. The preface is "5NN".

I fail to see why "please copy" is such a big deal. Maybe it is summertime

Message-ID: <NEBBIHDFILKFAICDBOGHCEBJDJAA.jljarvis@adelphia.net>

What an inane debate.  But then, FD always highlights the need
for operator training.

Clearly, when there is time available for social pleasantry,
it's appropriate.  Yet, "Please Copy" has a function.  It denotes 
the start of formal traffic.  By extension, it has been applied 
by some to contest exchanges.  So what?  Other than being slow,
does it matter?  

Clearly, it's more efficient to confirm the other stn's callsign 
instead, e.g.:  "k2bmi, 5a VT".   And the response?  "thanks, w1moo, FD"  
Note, the "thanks" pleasantry is also confirmation of receipt, and therefore 
procedural.  Repeating your callsign allows the other guy to confirm 
he got it right, at the same time as trolling for the next one.

If you want to look at efficient communications, monitor an
air traffic control net for a while.  Like perhaps NY Center,
or approach or departure control at any major metropolitan
airport.  Or be adventurous, and monitor Center, approach,
departure, tower AND ground, all at once.  

With 180 knot aircraft on approach moving at 3 mile separation or less, 
takeoffs and landings at 60 second intervals,  motion on the
ground gated in between--comm's are pretty much formatted, 
cut and dried, all business, with formal readback.  

And yet, in all but the busiest of times there's time for g'day, g'night, 
good flight, thank you sir, and see you later.  In lighter times 
you might even hear "nice day for flying, see you on the way back."  

At all but the largest and fastest of dxpeditions in peak times,
they put contesters to shame.  So what's all the blather about? 
Did anyone EVER see single station peak FD rates over 200/hour?   

Nice day for flying...OR radio.  Contact departure one two one point three, 
G'day.  (note, we don't need OVER...the courtesy is procedural.)

Jim, you forgot to include "when last heard"..

I am over 64, and while I am beginning to suffer some "senior

Nothing whatsoever.

However, when you are in a real emergency situation, the less unnecessary
verbiage the better. You want to get the important information passed
without any extraneous traffic.

...there is no question, especially on SSB, that there is some
"salesmanship" in making QSOs with non-contesters...K4XS's "anyone anywhere"
comes to mind....but....if you are truly running 'em I believe you should
NOT use extraneous verbiage - bottom line it lowers the efficiency of BOTH
the sending and receiving station.  Save the fluff for the QSL message -
instead of "QSL QRZed" a "thanks QSL QRZed" is about all that should be
needed UNLESS as I mentioned before you are in "contest enlightenment mode"
and trolling for newbies on the top end of 10 meters!

It appears that there was some problem with the Cabrillo Robots at the ARRL.
As it turns out, my 160 score was omitted from the Club Competition results.
As it turns out, the problem did not affect the standings but illustrates
one of the benefits to on-line results.

Corrected results:

#5  South East Contest Club        1,284,294  14 entries
#6  Minnesota Wireless Assn       1,096,363  24  + 92,340 = 1,188,703  25

My score was 92,340.  Unless there are other mistakes in the Club
scores, my score matters not to the MWA.......

Are there any good books, FAQ's, etc. on contest practice & etiquette

There are some books around, but the best way is to listen and emulate the
technique of those who do it right.

Listen on the air to many of the guys who are commenting about this here.
Find them on the air, work them (if appropriate for the particular contest),
then sit back and listen how it's done.

You won't learn anything by transmitting.

Is that really what you wanted to say? I see the 'please copy' thing as more of 
a style issue than an good operating issue or as N5NJ put it, the 'right' way 
of doing things.

I can certainly see room for a number of styles within the boundaries of the 
best contesting practices. Does saying something like 'please copy' put me into 
a second tier of contesters because of the 0.4 seconds it takes me to say that?

As for the indignant few who can't believe we're discussing this in the first 
place, Mr. Urban's questions prove that there is a need-- maybe it's a 
minority, but it's still a need-- to discuss anything and everything about 
contesting on this forum. As an aside, it has always amused me that there 
always seems to be a undercurrent of resentment every time certain threads get 
started. It seems like such a clich? to say this, but you know what key to hit 
when you see something you don't want to read, don't you?

Fair warning: In the next SS, I will be using my call, W6LX, and very likely I 
will at times slip up and say 'please copy' among various other niceties, 
exclamations, time-wasting utterances, and idiosyncracies. If you'd rather not 
have me waste your precious time and slow down your precious rate, please do 
not work me. I will probably make a total of about 400 contacts, and at 0.4 
seconds per contact, I'll live with the wasted 2 minutes 40 seconds of my life.

Well, with one computer set to local time, another computer on Linux, a
third computer with the wrong date, everyone trying to run CT in windoz, a
triband yagi with defective traps, a generator that required the press of a
button (located behind the panel) in addition to reseting the circuit
breaker to bring it back to life.....

I received an email from a brand spanking new - one week old licensed - ham:

    Really enjoyed my 1st field day and sure appreciated all of the support
    from the Scottsdale club.

    Also was nice to have some time to talk with you and pick your brain on
    some of the technical questions that I'm struggling with, particularly
    antennas.

    Went to FD without any idea what I would be doing. Then, the opportunity
    to observe some real CW work appealed to me. What a treat to have the
    chance to work alongside Chris and Ralph. Was even starting to pick up
    on some of the code by the end. I came home and pulled out my keyer and
    made the connector to the HF rig and am now ready to make my 1st CW
    contact. Well, after a bit more practice...

This is what it's all about!

You probably also say "number" before the contact number, don't you?

"Number" takes about 0.5 seconds at full speed, "please" copy takes
about 1.1 seconds at full speed.

Imagine, 2100 SS phone contacts means 3360 seconds -- almost an
hour of contesting -- just for YOU to say it.  And, your contact draws from
inference how fast he should send his exchange.  He will automatically
move at your rhythm.  This means that he'll slow down to your speed
and send "please copy number" himself.  That means you'll lose 2 hours
in an SS.

This piece talks a lot about how what seems like an insignificant amount of

A read of this piece years ago changed my operating style completely - I

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Harmonic stubs
Message-ID: <000901c21e4e$6da97660$d5fafea9@paulplay>

A couple of years ago I made 2nd harmonic coaxial shorting stubs for a
DXpedition using a noise bridge and what I think is conventional procedures.

We thought they worked great but when I actually had a chance to test their
performance with a near neighbor, I found they had no effect on the 2nd
harmonic.

Since then I have found a procedure to make effective shorting stubs that do
attenuate the 2nd harmonic (40m, 23 dB, RG8X) and these stubs have been on 2
DXpeditions with good results.

What I am looking for is a multi-multi contest station that presently uses
harmonic shorting stubs that would be willing to try one of my stubs and
compare it's performance to what they are using now.

Please reply to me direct.

Geez, if that's the only mistake I'da made when I started, I
think I'da been doing pretty well! It was probably the first time
a lot of these guys got on HF and they were pretty nervous. 
Especially if people were telling them how dumb they were. I
think we should encourage newbies instead of make fun of them.  I
got off the VE team here in Coos Bay because nobody wants to
learn the code to upgrade anymore.  All they want to do is get a
no-code and quit.  I can't remember the last time I gave a code
test.  Probably when they dumbed the Extra to 5WPM.

EXACTLY!

Here's what our FD gang received from a new contest recruit ...


The opportunity to work next to some of the best operators in our hobby,
and have them take the time to "coach" newcomers as well, was awesome
and always peaks my interest in ham radio. To all of you who put up with
my numerous questions, I am grateful. Having access to all the combined
skill and experience brought to the event by so many, do you blame me?? 

 So not only do we walk away from field day with a great time, but with
better operating skills, old and new friendships. Too bad it's only once
a year!! hi.  

What a setup, great conversation and regardless of where you come from a
common love of the hobby. Thanks for allowing us to share in it all.


Will probably be hearing him joining us in contests in the near future.

Looking to get a radio that is a decent contest rig, but is reasonably

Greetings:

This is my first post to the contest reflector in 
13 months...wheretheheckhaveIbeen?

I am in the process of writing the summary article for
QST magazine for the 2002 ARRL DX CW contest.  I am soliciting
your input.  In particular, I would like anecdotal stories
about your operating during the contest, pictures, rate
sheet, etc.  If you think you may have finished in the top 10
in ANY category, I'd particularly like to have your rate 
sheet and station description info for the detailed write-up
that will be posted to the contest section on the ARRL
web site.  If your current station description is accurate
in the N4ZR/PVRC contest station database, let me know.

I am particularly interested in hearing perspective from
casual contesters on their contest experience.  Don't be shy.

Anything you think I ought to know that might be good to
add to the write-up, send it to me!

I know a number of you were sick or taking care of sick
family members that weekend as the flu bug ravaged North
America - if you have an anecdote about that, great.

I may also contact some of you directly by email as well
asking questions.  No guarantee that anything will or will
not be part of the article as editing, of course, is up to
the League for the mag article.  There is much less
constraint on the content for the web site so let's fill
'er up!  

Have a good weekend, everyone.

I take it you are looking for a portable lug along radio, so........
Don't buy one at all.
Borrow one on those few occasions when you might need one, and give the 
loaner a few bucks to cover his outlay.
It is a win-win for both of you.

This should move us past "pse copy",,

Kenwood TS850.

Easy to find used, cheap, works great for contesting, PC control.

Holds most of the world records in Multi-Multi.

Good receiver with the filters, which are also easy to find used.

You may get several different opinions, but there is only one correct 
answer - the kit-built Elecraft K2/100! ;-)  At 5 pounds plus a 
switching PS (another 5 or less), it is one of the lightest and smallest 
you can carry. It way outperforms the commercially-built micro-rigs and 
even beats contesting's most lauded "big" rigs. The rx is terrific in 
pileups and beats the 1000MP even at home. They are hard to find used as 
the 100w version just came out at Dayton, but there are some QRP 
versions listed occasionally on the elecraft@qth.net reflector and 
elsewhere. (Be careful buying used kit rigs, though.) The QRP version 
can be upgraded to the /100 model with a reasonably priced "completion 
kit" which is, in fact, the only way K2/100's are built - first the base 
rig, then the amp. If you don't want to build your radio, there are 
excellent builders available for hire. See http://www.elecraft.com.

If the K2/100 is over your budget for a travel radio, just sell your 
current rig and use the K2 at home, too! I have a 930 and an MP and 
prefer the K2 for everything except working through non-contest, 
split-frequency DX pileups.

Elecraft redefines the vendor/customer relationship. Great Website, 
super support group including hundreds of disciples on the reflector, 
sudden response to customer needs, outstanding documentation, 
vendor-encouraged modifications database, ... the works!

I'm not related to anyone at Elecraft but I do know the principals well. 
They are friends and heros. If that disqualifies my comments, see the 
reflector for identical commentary from outside CA.

When things start to sizzle and I go into bare minimum rate I also speed up
my CW speed - this sensing of that time when not only are you loud in a big
footprint area but loud enough to get away with being short and sweet is the
moment I live for - it is like being the first hour at a DXpedition from a
new country and the whole world wants you - you can work them as fast as you
are able to - at this point the ability to know multiple stations calls that
are calling you and tailenders etc is pure unadulterated gravy....this is
the moment I live for each contest!

Am about to go into some cartons here and see if I can find that old article
from Tom Schiller's there - I am sure it was back before we all shortened
our identities....old age setting cannot remember his old call
anymore.....do remember my copy was on yellow paper - a lot of you have
asked about it - should I find it I will try and scan it and
wordprocessorize it (with Tom's permission) for the contest community to
enjoy....funny how being so long ago does not change the basics - gee mebbe
running people does not necessarily take a Gold Card and a winning Lotto
ticket!

Back to lookin'

Do drivers for NA exist so you can user ethernet to connect two or more 
machines together for MM or MS?  I would like to use my current network I 
use at home to accomplish this rather than have to go the serial 
route.  I've never seen any information on this supject and I have look 
around the web, but couldn't find any information.

Zack, INRAD recommended 2 400 hz filters for cw, so that
is what I used with mine. Wish I had it back! For ssb I just
used the standard 2.7 khz filters. Others may have some
suggestions for ssb. I just felt the selectivity was good enough.
My station is defintly low profile (tribander 40ft and wires) so
others may have different thoughts on the use of ssb filters.

Yeah! For performance per pouind or per cubic foot, the Elecraft
K2 os far ahead of the crowd and it's made in USA. Add the
100W amp to the basic rig and you have a flyaway package
under 10 pounds including switching power supply.

The only downside, far as I know, is that it's menu driven and
not very intuitive. BUT I'm a slow learner and was able to
get my basic, 5 watt K2 to jump through hoops within an hour.

The rig comes as a kit. If you're not inclined or not able to
build it, a lot of folks would do the building for you.

It's worth a look!

==========================>
Alkalinity from the older concrete leaches out into the yard.

You do not notice this at first. It takes a while for the leaching to have 
an adverse affect on the surrounding plants that might need a more acid 
soil condition.

Apply acidifier to the surrounding soil.
Same thing happens down here in the Southern USA to azaleas planted too 
close to concrete foundations of houses.

The list is free to be surprised at this being one of my few sincere posts 
with a content of substance.
File away if you wish to preserve same.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Heil boom mic set problem
Message-ID: <006301c2091e$441fd180$70ab45cf@default>

I have a problem with the Pro micro boom mic set.  The button on the mic
swivel went bad and the mic would not stay in place.  Bob Heil sent me a new
button but upon trying to put it on I found the problem was the tube inside
the button.  It had broken off from the button.  I don't see a way to get
inside headset to fix this as Heil recommended.  I showed the pro micro to
two others who have either Heil Pro or pro micros.  We tried removing the
cushion but the headset is one piece and the cushion appears to be glued on.
We tried to get into the headset from the back where the button is attached
but all of us were afraid to damage the Pro Micro.

Does anyone have experience on repairing either the Pro or Pro micro.
Otherwise the other two recommended sending it all back to Heil.

I'm by far no expert on the history of all this, but my impression is that
the assumption is made that contesters are prone to exaggerate their logs.
In the past with paper logs this was very difficult to find.  When it is
found, the QSO itself and a penalty is extracted.  Yet, situations such as
yours definitely exist where the victim/perp are reversed and the penalties
are not.

Now that most (all for CQ?) logs are submitted electronically, I think it's
high time to eliminate the penalty points entirely.  Just remove the QSO
(and mult if it be one) and recompute the score.  Guys in your situation
will still bemoan why the other guy didn't log you, but at least all you're
losing is the QSO and not having a penalty lumped on.  Anyone trying to
benefit by padding the log will of course have their work totally removed.
Seems fair to me.

I think the time for the penalty points, appropriate when finding fraud was
so difficult when paper logs were the norm, to be totally removed.  Let the
score reduction be computed solely on the basis of the submitted log, less
QSOs in error.

One man's opinion, of course :-)

73,

Gary W2CS

There are two ways to solve the 0 point QSO problem:
1. Automatically give zone and country credit for all 0 pt QSOs. For 
example, USA gets credit for USA and zones 3,4 and 5; UA0 gets credit 
for UA9/0 and zones 17, 18, and 19; DL gets credit for DL and zone 14; 
etc.
2. If a N-I-L pattern appears, for example, W3multi was in the log of 15 
other W ops, but 12 of those QSOs aren't in W3multi's log, he should 
be DQed.

If you have a problem with a Heil product, I'd suggest calling Heil to
discuss it. While their obviously in business to make money, they are very
customer oriented. About a year ago the mike on my "legacy" headset became
intermittent. My guess was that it was in the cord. Dave returned my call,
told me that was a fairly common problem and the fix was quite easy. His
prediction was correct and fix was easy to complete.

Has anyone tried the Heil FS-2 footswitch in contesting? It looks like
it might be easier to key than many of the other footswitches that I
have seen but I'm wondering what other contesters think. All comments
would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone on this list have a trashed Heil Proset headset available
that they would consider selling me? I'm looking for a working mic/boom
from a Proset to put onto another (non-Heil) set of headphones but I
don't feel like spending $130 plus shipping to buy a new headset just
for the mic/boom. If someone reading this has a trashed Proset that has
a working mic/boom and cord please e-mail me if you'de consider parting
with it. Thanks!

world...now they are shrinking in world wide POPs etc and not available in
a lot of countries I travel to...one member of this list had reccommended
GRIC as a world provider...I had to purchase GRIC services thru a company
called VPM and they were horrible...no custome support etc...but GRIC did
have the most worldwide access points....anybody that travels have any
other luck with ATT Worldnet or any other ISP...Compuserve since it was

Please let me know if you lost any QSOs from K8CC.  For the past several 
years I've reminded our operators before the contest that if they send 
someone an exchange, they are to log it, period.  Hurting the points per 
QSO ratio is not an issue.

I don't know how CQ checks logs, but with ARRL 160 and ARRL 10 (which K9TM 
and I check) the penalties are equivalent QSOs - i.e., if you have a five 
point NIL in ARRL 160, you lose that QSO plus five QSO points.  OTOH, in 
some contests like ARRL DX and SS all QSO points are the same, but the 
strategy is the same.

Before this spirals out of control any further, please note that WW3S
indicated that he made an error in his math while looking at his report.

There were no USA multi-multi's who did not log him nor caused him to lose
any points or multipliers.

I use "AT&T Global Network" to access my company through a virtual private 
network.  In countries that AT&T serves, there are typically dozens or even 
hundreds of local dial-in numbers; sometimes an 800-equivalent number. There 
are hundreds of numbers in the US plus an 800 number. My company must pay extra 
when I use the 800 and equivalent numbers. The dialer includes a self-updating 
list of numbers for each country and US state; i.e., it is always close to 
up-to-date. Unfortunatley, the numbers are listed alphabetically by city, so 
the larger the country or state, the more geography you must know or learn in 
order to find the best number quickly. Hotel desks are very helpful with this. 
The service works well, with speeds varying from about 24000 to 54000 in the 
venues I have tried (mainly
US and Europe). N.B. I use an IBM ThinkPad T20 with a rather good built-in 
modem.  In some Caribbean islands AT&T is not represented and the best I can do 
is call Florida. I don't know if this is the same AT&T service that is 
available to individuals.

Actually they already count as you suggest. That is why the original
poster worked the multi to begin with, to get USA and the zone on a
particular band. Example, at NY4A, we need one "K" station and zones
3,4,5 on each band for mults, even though they don't count as Q
points.

There is no loss to logging 0 point qso's. I'm really quite mystified
that anyone would drop them who is using any of the computer loggers.

In order to get a same country exchange to go out at all so that the
posting station would hear an exchange, the easiest way for the multi
to do that is type in the call and hit enter. All done. Deleting the Q
from the log takes additional work. Logging the Q is BY FAR the
easiest, fastest thing for the multi to do. "W1WXYZ <ENTER> 5
<ENTER>".  Everything else takes more time.

I suspect that someone may have done something like go through the
multi log afterward and deleted everything that had zero qso points
and wasn't a mult, not quite realizing what was happening.

Except that does zilch one way or another for the score. Pts/Q is just
an analysis tool. In something like the WPX may indicate someone spent
too much time with beams aimed at USA gathering 1 pointers, instead of
a slower (but higher scoring) progress working European stations.

But it has no official status in any contest that I know of. Anyone
who would suggest such a strategy (deleting zero pointers) clearly
does not understand contest scoring rules.

This already looks unfair (comparing, say, the free mults a DL gets versus
the ones a US station gets) but multiply it by all the bands involved and it
get much worse.

A see a huge potential for mischief here...  Perhaps a note should be sent
to the "W3multi" alerting him of the trouble, but nothing more.

QUACK's
Good thinking today with computer logging , however when we were papering
logging I'm sure that many guys didn't put in a W7 into their log when they
already had a W6 zone 3 and a couple of VE7's,  TOO much effort to write
them down and also dupe.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Heil FS-2 Footswitch
Message-ID: <20020603.002007.-1392873.1.n6ki@juno.com>

Nat, 

        I guess you missed the previous thread on footswitches
when someone else inquired an alternative to the Heil FS-2

"
        I just replaced a very comfortable, durable and ergonomically
comfortable
footswith that lasted me over 10+  years of contesting.
        After considering many switches including the Heil FS-2,
here's one you should consider and why I chose it.
 
Linemaster  Model Gem-V2
www.linemaster.com
 
860 974-1000
 
Circular - Easy to hit from all angles
 
Perfect touch - you can lightly rest your foot on edge of it
                           and not false trigger but then a light
additional amount of additional pressure
                           keys it and no "cramped" or "tired" foot as
the hours wane on
 
Great Weight and Non Skid corrugated base  - Will not move around too
easily
so no worry about it not staying in position.
 
Nice appearance with chrome ringed edge and easy hit circular top target
area.
 
I expect it will easily last 10+ years for heavy contest use.
 
You can purchase with or without cable. I found the supplied cable listed
on teh web
page to be too heavy and cumbersome so I installed my own thinner and
very flexible
cable and saved another $6 on the price.
 
The Gem-V2 will cost you just under $30 including shipping/handling.
 
Note: Since they normally have a $100 minimum, I requested my switch
as a sample for 60 day evaluation and had it mailed to me at my work
address.
That way you avoid the $100 minimum 
 
You may also want to check with your contest buddies or club members and 
order enough to meet the $100 minimum order. 
 
I have no pecuniary interest in Linemaster  Co. Products"
 
73, Dennis N6KI

Message-ID: <000d01c20af3$a8a1c560$8600a8c0@yumaaz.adelphia.net>

Staples has the Envision Model EN-710e 17" Monitor
on sale, through June 15, for $149.98, less a $70
mail-in rebate, for a final price of $79.98 plus
tax. You can get it at your local Staples store,
or at Staples.com with free shipping.

I've had one of these for about six months now,
and it is one of the cleanest monitors that I've
seen. On one or two occasions, I've detected a
birdie from it, but it was a weak narrowband
sinusoid, and didn't create any problem. I just
bought another one.

of friends for use in the WPX contests.  They operate single-op at their 
own station, but they just use someone else's (more desirable) callsign 
(with the other party's permission, of course.)  

     I wonder how other contesters feel about this practice?

The OFFICIAL answer re WPX club score participation  was that WPX rules are
the same as CQ Worldwide contest and percentages are allowed.

I read the WPX rules the same way, however one of our club members ran into
Steve Boll, N5BJQ, at Dayton, and posted this comment on the club
reflector:

************************************************************************
I hooked up with N8BJQ at Dayton and asked about the team scoring for WPX.
He sez if the station owner is a member, then the multi op score can count
for the club.  Doesn't matter how many ops are members.  FYI.
************************************************************************

If this is uncertain, we should ask Steve for a clarification.

I do not recall it being the effort of logging them nor 
was it the trouble of duping them - afterall ten contacts 
with a ZERO point station counts the same as one contact.

The problem was it made it very hard to figure out 
your average points per QSO.

The first time I showed up at a CQ WW M/M I was told not to 
log more than a few W stations.

Now in the age of computer logging I log everything - I log W/VE stations
even in the ARRL DX contests.

There have been several notes recently about the Dayton cw pileup results on 
the  to the Kansas City DX Club web page.  If you look elsewhere on their 
page you will find the sound files for the 1998 and 1999 pileup tests along 
with the answer sheets.  I ran the files and  confirmed what I had know for 
some time, I suck as a potential world class cw op.  There are some features 
of the sound files that play into my weaknesses.  The selective filters in my 
head will sync on a certain tone frequency. Once I have copied the call at 
that tone I try to mentally lock onto another caller at another tone, doesnt 
work, the original preferred tone distracts me.  If the sound file came 
complete with a rit I would do much better.  On the first listen I could not 
copy more than 38 callsigns from either file.  The list of scores for these 
years is also available on the web site and its a lot of fun to compare and 
find out just how bad or good you really are.  In my case it was good to 
dissolve the illusion.  

The potential fun is limited by the fact that the only files listed are those 
from 98 and 99.  Maybe the KCDXC can locate the sound files from previous 
years and provide us with some additional fun.  If you have never been to 
Dayton or have never participated in the pileup test, this may tell you to 
either avoid the embarrassment, practice more, or to make a reservation now 
for next year.  Log onto the KCDXC web site and have a run at it, beats 
sitting around waiting for the next contest.

Message-ID: <OFA85F541A.96FAF405-ON85256BCE.005889EA@cam.abtassoc.com>

At Saturday's meeting of the Yankee Clipper Contest Club, Dan N1ND made a
lively and informative presentation on developments at the ARRL Contest
Branch.  Many of these have to do with contest coverage and are already
familiar to readers of CQ-Contest.

One change that was new to me is a shorter deadline for submitting logs for
ARRL contests --- instead of 30 days after the contest, it would be 15 days
after the contest.  (As I recall, Dan said that this would apply to the
2002 November Sweepstakes and later contests.  From later information,
however, it is not clear to me whether the change has been adopted or is
merely under consideration.)  Members of the audience had a number of
comments, bringing out pros and cons.  The discussion revealed the need for
flexibility (e.g., someone may enter the ARRL DX Contest as a DXpedition
during the course of a longer trip and not be able to send in the log
within the 15 days), and Dan indicated that he could handle such special
situations.

I'm curious to know what the broader contesting community sees as the
practical implications of such a change.

I feel there is no question there are better calls to be used in this
contest...if you have a rarer prefix, especially now that W can work W, you
might get waited upon (run em) whereas if you are the third or 10th K4 that
someone has worked spin the know takes over!

It is precisely for this reason that we used WC4E in our Multi-Multi effort
in CW WPX from W1CW/W1YL/K4OJ station....

Jeff (WC4E) has a callsign which is almost synonymous with the WPX
contest...I know when I had pileups calling me there were many guys seeing
new prefix on their monitors and were willing to wait!

Contesting is a competitive sport...if you have found a better shaped sail
in sail boating you go with it...or a better tire in auto racing you go with
that.....

Do I have a problem with a fellow ham loaning his "unique prefix" callsign
to another ham in his quest for greater contest success...not in the least -
what are friends for?

We could have been K4NNN or K4FCG or any of the other calls licensed at
W1CW/W1YL/K4OJ in WPX CW but there is absolutely no question in my mind that
by having Jeff's call we did better - his being there to operate was a big
help, too - nice job on 15, Jeff!

Seems like a really nice "hammy" thing to do - at least to me...provided of
course it is a free choice - I would not condone anyone holding a gun to
someone's head in order to use their call during a contest...even if it were
a hired gun!

This is a fraternity, right - a good place to do fraternal kinda stuff, eh?

Hi Ron,
I am a member of the KCDXC and will say tnx to everyone who enjoys the
pileup competition. Now for the good news...Last nite at our monthly meeting
we discussed making cd's of the sound files (including this years)along with
the answersheets and making them available. Once the final info is ready,
either I or Bill K0VBU will let you guys know.

Needing to calculate (or wanting to maximize) points-per-QSO is obviously
unnecessary today.

I don't need to tell most of you that the problem back in the good ol' days
was that in order to report the score immediately after the contest, one
needed to guesstimate the points-per-QSO.  I recall hearing, "Using last
year's...",  oh so many times on 3830.  So any deviation from the norm (IOW,
too many zero-pointers) was perceived as a hidden, after-3830,
score-reducer.  And since relatively few (compared to today) logs were
checked, it was of no consequence - although it should have been.

Computer logging has been the norm for well over ten years.  Points-per-QSO
is calculated on the fly.  No need to guess or maximize.  Old habits die
hard I suppose.

I like the Heil footswitch.  And on the well-beaten-down subject of
headphones, as I have stated before, the ONLY headphone I will ever use
again is the FOSTEX T-20.  Cost about $80.  I wear them without any
discomfort for 48 hours straight.  Simply epoxy a Heil boom mike with HC-4
element (naturally) to the side.

Following my lead, the FOSTEX used one time or another by world class
operators like W6YA, CT1BOH, and OH2BH.

Now that I have revealed Contesting Secret No. 2, (1) the competition just
got a little tougher, and/or (2) many more of you will be operating,
comfortably, for many more hours, and we will all enjoy your presence, and
obvious skills.

Hoping to see many of you in Finland.

Quacks
Thats how I did it,  I had the permission of the owner of WR7HE to use his
call for the WPX   ssb/cw and did so.  I'm responsiable for answering the
QSL's.  and operating within the rules.

Yeah, and its probably not too different than going on a DXpedition for a
contest, and "borrowing" not only their call, but also their station.  And
if it adds to your score, interest in the contest, and is an all-in-all
stimulus for activity, and FUN, so what?  Isn't that what contesting is
supposed to be all about?

The point is:  ANYONE can do it.  Just like SO2R.  If you don't wish to play
the game, your choice.  But don't condemn others from trying to find an
advantage.

It's just one more element of why it's a "competition".  Duh.........

K4VX has done this for years. His wife is NS0Z and they usually use her call
in WPX from his station, which most of the time is manned by guest ops. As
long as permission has been given, I don't see a problem with it, even
though in this particular case it makes my own call sign less desirable!

Hear, hear!!!

I agree.

This was my first Dayton convention.

I would have loved to have particpated/competed had I realized that the
hospitality suite I was in (down the hall from the banquet room by the
elevators) was not THE hospitality suite where the real activities were
going on (is that where the door prizes were handed out, too?).

Oh, well...next year....

==========================>
A hot glue gun will work as an adhesive quite nicely, as well.

A hot glue gun will also serve well to seal the end of plugs where it might 
be a concern for connections being strained by an inadvertent pull or tug 
on the wire(s).

Another tip is to use W2IHY audio setting # 8,723 while wearing loose boxer 
shorts for ragchews and tight briefs for pileup busting.

This is an excellent idea.  A week would not be too short, in my opinion,
especially given Dan's flexibility for special occasions.

I think what Dan is seeing is that most e-mail logs arrive within a day or
two of the end of a contest.  IF
all contest entries were e-mail logs then there would be no problem.
However, since ARRL must accept hand logs (as do most contests) this will
only work if logs are accepted with postmarks of the date 15 days out.
Same for diskettes received.

For Dx contests I am sure ARRL receives logs up to 3 or 4 months after the
contest as overseas mail (even some airmail) takes this long.

Its not a perfect world and there are reasons why even 30 days is too short
(PC disk problems, logging program problems, business trips etc)    The
question is whether Dan will accept exceptions.
Lets hope he will.

Considering that there's a ton of people that still refuse to give you
a dupe contact and send QSO B4 instead, when QSO B4 is clearly a loser
for BOTH stations, more so for the one *sending* QSO B4, I'd guess
that only once every twenty years does the average ham set down and
read the rules for any possible improvements to modus operandi.

Among those who work the boards for corporate tech support, there is
this snippet often heard when the mic's are cut off.

RTFM

It's amazing what even college educated engineers will fail to read
and comprehend. Stuff of legends.

73, Guy.

I find that if I submit a log 29 days after the contest, it is probably 
because I have forgotten about it since about day 3.

It would be nice to have some automated service for which one could sign up, 
that would look at a sample of early arriving logs, and if it detects your 
call as having been on the air but shows no log received from you, would send 
out an e-mail message asking/reminding you to send in your log. This might 
happen 10-15 days after the contest.

Something like this has been done for the sprints, I suspect with some human 
intervention.

I don't think one should expect to receive an exception.
Exception means rare, and is subject to discretion, which
could change in the future.  

Furthermore, there are legitimate reasons for longer periods
to submit a log.  For example, the month of November is
especially busy - an op has just finished a grueling 48 hours
in the CQWW fone contest at the end of October, and now
hits: SSCW, SSFone, CQWW CW, and for stateside guys, Thanksgiving
holiday with attendent family pressures.  Keeping in mind the
Amateur's Code from the ARRL handbooks, ham radio is a hobby -
and is secondary to one's primary obligations to family, job,
etc. Thus, it may be difficult to find time to submit the log,
especially if one is trying to think up witty comments for
the soapbox writeup.

What compelling reason is served by reducing the time frame
for log submission?

OK, so they're going to cut the deadline in half, from 30 days to 15 days.

Does this mean the RESULTS will be computed and printed twice as fast?  I doubt
it.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Borrowed callsigns
In-Reply-To: <20020604094126.B19751@cs.utexas.edu>

Well Kenneth, back when I was first licensed (Federal Radio Com., not FCC), 
the callsign was firmly associated with the radio equipment and 
location.  I guess by popular demand in the amateur service anyway, the 
callsign  association transitioned to the operator.  Now, the callsign has 
become a commodity that can be used by any qualified operator with the 
owners permission.  This progression can be considered a form of 
progress.   73   Jim  w3cp

I'm sure all the anti-log-sanitizing nazis will be happy, but the
programmers might not be. Now they have but a few days to fix any
Cabrillo-generation bugs that might not be discovered until late. (I know, I
know, they are ALL supermen and there are never any bugs.)

Also, this would put the deadline for several large contests right on top of
other large contests (ARRL DX phone occurs 2 wks after ARRL DX CW; SS phone
is two wks after SS CW).  Currently, I don't have to worry about submitting
any of the big-four Fall contest logs until after CQWW CW is over.

I'm not against change, but it should have a purpose...   Is this to speed
up the publication of the results on the web or in QST?  (Personally, I can
wait the extra 15 days...) Or is it to cut down on that nasty evil of log
sanitizing?  (Which IMO is not as pervasive as some seem to believe.)  Or
will it simply serve to make slightly more acute one of contesting's
existing burdens?  If Dan is going to entertain "special situations" (and I
don't envy him this), why not make the deadline one week (or less)?  Then
when your only Internet-enabled PC crashes, or your ISP goes down, you, too,
can cry "foul!"

P.S. I do not perform any post-contest log sanitizing nor do I often take
more than a few days to submit my log.

Why not finish a contest, immediately produce the required file, and then

Ron --

In the Cabrillo summary sheet spec www.kkn.net/~trey/cabrillo/ CheckLog is
indicated as one of the categories although the official rules do not
mention anything about that as a category.

Never tried that myself although I have had the opportunity with many meager
scores!

I tried this, and while the hot glue was a bit uncomfortable for the first hour

I've operated a number of contests from various Caribbean locations.  I
usually center the contest around a vacation so it may be a week or two
before I arrive back home.  Once home there's usually a lot of catching up
to do with numerous home chores and work projects.  I don't travel with
email so I need a lot of time to submit my logs.  Those doing paper logs
certainly benefit by having this amount of time.  Even if you computer log,
your computer may break down and it may take a while to get the data
straightened out.  I like the four week log submission period, especially
with work and family obligations.

Because, as someone else commented, November is loaded with contests, and 
there are a few other things going on.  More to the point, what possible 
anti-cheating benefit is derived from cutting the deadline from 30 to 15 
days?  How can that change affect the incidence of log-fudging in any 
meaningful way?  Inquiring minds want to know!

I think there is too much time at present between the event and the results.
Reducing the time frame for log submission could contribute directly to
shortening this time.  I think it's a good idea.

The reason I rarely do that is because preparing the log is a tedious and
time consuming process which is about the last thing I would want to do
right after opeating a (long) contest.  I might do it after a Sprint, but
getting a big log with lots of QSOs ready is another matter.  Making a big
log presentable takes time and clarity.

If you are suggesting not cleaning up the log, that is a different topic.

Doug,
I dunno about the ears but I have found that being bald helps keep glue off
one's hair, usually.  The other problem I found was that after a phone
contest it was difficult to eat with the mike glued to one's lips.  I
learned eventually to leave a hole into which I could insert a straw.  I
also got some strange looks when I went to work on a Monday altho on Wall
Street nobody says much.  They probably though I was just a new cold caller.

The other problem is that your head can get addicted to hot glue. After a
while your head gets heavy which leads to neck aches...or permanently bowed
heads...or cw only ops.

Remember, FD is coming, even tho it isn't a contest..
.
73,
Dennis K2SX

Lots of comments on this, but most are using tunnel vision.

IMHO there is more to consider than a single op with a 1000 QSO
computerized log.  

Why not send your comments to Dan and let him weigh your inputs

       Hi

 For the last few months we have been trying to get the Heil Pro Headset to
work well with the Yaesu FT-1000MP MK-V, but so far it has resulted in thin
audio
that sounds 2 s points weaker than our MD-200 desk mic. But it is very nice
to use a headset whilst contesting. We have tried both the HC4 and HC5
inserts but have had no luck. We have used the same headset with a contest
club on an FT-1000MP and had OK results. Any help will be appreciated.

KB3MM asked me:

> The log is the log.  What's to clean up ?

Here are a few examples:

Let's say I switched bands on the radio but forgot to switch bands on the
program.  I think I owe it to everyone to go through and do all the ensuing
damage control.

Let's say I misspelled a guy's name - at the moment the rules don't say I
can't go in and correct it later.

Let's say I put in a comment "This guy's a jerk; put him on the jerk list" -
I would want to double-check to make sure that was out prior to submitting
the log (that comment would be for "internal use only," hi).

Sounds like you really want to talk about the topic of massaging or
sanitizing which is beyond the scope of my first comment.  There are plenty
of reasons an op would want to make his log presentable before pressing
"send" which in many people's opinion fall short of "massaging" or
"sanitizing" from a practical standpoint.  Nobody's perfect.

In Dayton, I had the chance to see a demo and talk with the inventor of the 
device he calls "The Time Machine."  Simply put, this inexpensive unit 
allows you to receive ALL of an 80-khz slice of any HF band, and record 6 
hours (per tape) of the whole band segment on a VHS stereo VCR.  Then you 
can go back, at your leisure, and play back any time slice, tuning across 
with your receiver to revisit any station, anywhere within that frequency 
band.

The possibilities strike me as endless -- imagine being able to record the 
first 6 hours on 14000-14080, for example, and play it back later to find 
out why you did better or worse than the competition.  See how W3LPL or 
KC1XX were doing, what they were working and when, while you were 
struggling, or soaring, on the same band.  Or you could put one at a 
station on another continent, and hear later how the whole contest sounded 
from over there.

Check out http://www.expandedspectrumsystems.com/prod2.html for the full 
story.  I have no financial interest -- just think the CQ-Contest audience 
should hear about this.

buying a 706.  was wondering what to do about a headset for bopth general 
operating and contesting....does anyone have anything to say about the 
HS706 (the Heil mic FOR the 706) vs. a computer headset using the circuit 
outlined in a QST a couple months ago?

thanks

This has to be an example of Ham Utopia. One of my friends ( a contester and
DXpeditioner) sent this to me. He shall remain nameless but I thought
sharing his glee most worthwhile...........He has a bid in on some property.

got the permits in 2 hours, before I even own the damn place, u gotta love
that... two 100' 45G... they even allow guy anchors inside the 25'BRL and in
the reserve septic! I guess I had my stuff together, they took the canned
rohn drawings and my hand-drawn site plan and stamped them APPROVED PLANS hi
hi.  This county is soooo ham friendly, it qualified for residential fast
trak same day permit!  The guy checked w/super and came out with solemn look
and said federal law says we have to give u these permits, here you are, all
fees waived except $55!

I will share the QTH information for 25 thousand dollars :-)     He'd KILL
me :-)

Nice to see the good reports once in a while. Heaven knows the troubles most
of us have had...

Have a great summer....IARU/WRTC around the corner now.

I used to do this with a Betamax recorder, using a Drake R4A
receiver as the front end.  The sensitivity wasn't great, because
the RF gain was cranked back low, and the bandwidth was only
~6 -10 KHz with varying attenuation, but it was limited primarily
by the R4A first IF crystal filter rather than the VCR.  Had to fudge
the "BFO" l.o. way out of alignment to put the filter into proper
perspective.  I "FM-ed" the output of my T4X with the carrier
gain cut all the way to zero into a dummy load and listened on
the receiver to play the signals back.  You could hear a lot of CW
signals tuning around in that bandwidth, and it made for great
post-contest fun and games.

This one might be legitimate, but why wait till afterward??  I do it when
it's still fresh in my head (after a break, or between the next band

..... Or just look up the correct spelling on QRZ.com???  Log checking

In my experience, the cabrillo log checking robots would not compute this in
a data field and they would send you a "danger Will Robinson" reply
immediately.  You can then go and edit that line and resubmit.  Gab/notes
don't go into the cabrillo log anyway they?

When the contest time is up, it's up.  I press save and send it off.

Duct tape works well.

I'm not a frequent SSB contest participant.  Also, a few years ago, I threw
out a couple of my old boom mic/headsets (the headphones were shot).  For
one SSB contest I did get into a year or two ago, I took my Ten-Tec desk mic
and some duct tape and fashioned a loop to hang the mic stand with the base
against my chest and the mic near my mouth.  Worked great!  No tape to rip
off my scalp after the contest and lose hair--I'm doing that naturally and
medically.

Not for me. I fix calls like G444XYZ (sticky key probably) and ##DF2ABC 
(clearly a typo). Obvious stuff I got wrong, and 95% of the time I KNOW it's 
wrong ahead of time, but didn;t have the time or inclination to fix it 
during the test (I haven't slept for 30 hours, I'm running at 100+, and I 
type G444444444444444444ABC. I make a mental note to fix it when times get 
slow, and maybe forget).

Also damn time errors. Writelog, god bless its heart, did a timesetback 
(thats's a verb folks) during WPX SSB due to daylight savings time in 
England. I manually editing over 1000 times (and got a few wrong when I 
rechecked).

That said, I approve of faster log submittal times.

I don't think log submission is the gating item in the log checking or
results generation process!  If you are going to allow exceptions, why
bother to shorten the deadline.

I would attack the problem a different way.  Give us an incentive to submit
more quickly!

I keep a paper notepad next to my operating position to keep track of things 
like this to go back and fix later.

Better to do it later in calm moment than in the heat of battle...

I'd rather go back and fix it than depend on the kindness of the log 
checkers (no offence meant to any log checkers!-).

I will correct obvious misteaks - if the name entered is "jefg" I know it 
should be "jeff" - UNLESS I make a note of the unusual name in my paper 
notes. This works for me, anyway.

Single ops seem to have no problem with sending logs in right away, but some of
our multi-op efforts resulted in logs that were totally screwed up.  At one
point we had a lot of RF getting into the computers and we had to manually
search the logs for calls like XQY7JO63C.  These were not calls we typed in,
these were gibberish calls that showed up in the log off screen during the
contest, so we didn't know they were there until a post-contest examination.
With the 3 plus 1 penalty in CQ WW we could have easily lost a large percentage
of our actual score.  Sometimes the RF was there and sometimes it wasn't.
Fortunately, the problem seems to have departed, but I still check.  And it
takes time to go through thousands of Qs.

Another time we had a computer go screwy and start doubling contacts, that is,
we would enter KH7R on 20, for example, and then out of nowhere KH7R would also
show up as a QSO on 80.  That one took a while to fix.  Then there was the time
the commercial power took a hit and we came back up OK except after the contest
the times were 7 hours off.  Another time we came up after a power hit with the
wrong date.  Both those took a lot of post-contest time to fix.  (Yes I did buy
a UPS and it got some use in WPX CW!)  One time I had to ask for a log filing
extension just to get things ironed out.

Did you ever log part of the contest on paper and the rest on computer?  Try
sending that one in right after contest.

There are a lot of times I go to sleep shortly after the contest and 12 hours
later I'm headed to the airport only to be out of town for a week or two.  I
guess if I didn't have any other life, I just stayed home, computers never
crashed, the power company got their act together and  I ran only single-op QRP
I would probably want to reduce the log deadline to right after the contest.
Until that time I vote NO.

Message-ID: <01c20dd2$86fb3ae0$LocalHost@default>

50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HELSINKI OLYMPIC GAMES

Exactly fifty years before the opening of the WRTC2002 Games in Helsinki this 
year, 
there was a ceremony on the Arctic Circle in the always exotic Lapland (OH9) to 
mark the lighting of the Olympic torch and the start of the relaying of the 
torch on a 
long journey to Helsinki.
The Olympic Stadium was packed full on July 19, 1952 during the opening 
ceremony 
of the XV Olympic Games in Helsinki. This year we are celebrating the 50th 
anniversary of the greatest event in Finnish sports history.

Those participating in the greatest and most spirited event in radio 
contesting, 
WRTC2002, are encouraged to join in the July 19, 2002 festivities at the 
Helsinki 
Olympic Stadium when footage of the original opening ceremony will connect us 
from 1952 to the present day in a true Olympic spirit.

"Any hints on getting the residual glue off my ears and out of my hair?"

Why bother - since this was hot glue - seems best to leave it Doug, you can
probably re-use it by simply putting your head in a microwave and warming it
up just prior to the next contest!

Shouldn't this discussion be moved to the HPH (high performance headphones)

     To answer the question posed about how hard is to log contacts
on the wrong band given that in 2002 everyone has computer control
of the rigs...

     It is very easy to log contacts on the wrong band in a VHF contest.
There are no "all-band" VHF/UHF contest radios.  A typical VHF contest 
station might look like: http://n5xu.ae.utexas.edu/n5xu/vhf.html
You have one or two rigs for 50, 144, and 432, but you need to use
transverters for 222, 1296, etc.  You may have almost one rig per band, 
and I don't know of any major contest logging software that can handle 
the concept of five or six computer-controlled rigs, with each one
representing one or two or three bands, each possibly reporting the 
IF frequency rather than the RF frequency...

I agree with Randy.  The biggest problem with log checking is getting
everyone to submit a proper log.
When you receive logs in say a non cabrillo format the log must be run
through a converter and with some contests this is no trivial task.  Then
there needs to be an incentive to get the paper log entries to put them on a
computer even if post contest.  Hand checking these logs is also not a
trivial task. Please remember that some still do not have a PC.   A certain
Russian contester would tell me thanks for accepting his hand log.  Well
before this years contest I gave him some reasons to get it on the computer.
Low and behold he sent in the entry on diskette using a PC at his work.
Next year he says he will send it via e-mail.

Perhaps there should be three incentives: (say add points like the ARRL
Field Day)

One for fast log entry (say arrives with the 15 days).
One for being in the proper format.  Most of the logging programs produce a
cabrillo format but you have to have the correct (latest?) version.
The final incentive would be to get it on a computer even if you send a
diskette.

This would sure speed up log checking of the CQ 160 Contests.

One further comment.  When one has put in a big effort in a contest why
don't  we put the same effort in providing a log that fully meets contest
requirements?

Hi all,
I want to remind you of the upcoming All Asian DX Contest which will 
be held 1 week later. This contest must be a great oppotunity for you 
to get many Asian rare entities and many old friends in Asia. 

The contest period will be from 0000 6/15 to 2400 6/16.
When you contact any Asian station, please send RST + your age. 
For example, I send 59941 as I am 41 years old.
If you are a YL station, you can send 00 instead of your real age. 

The detailed rule can be found on the following JARL official page;
http://www.jarl.or.jp/English/4_Library/A-4-3_Contests/AADX.htm
The result of 2001 is rinked to the same page.

The only change from last year is regarding a special plaque.
There are not so many sponsors, however, you have a chance to get a 
special plaque from JARL. The plaques as of today is shown on the 
following page;
http://www.jarl.or.jp/English/4_Library/A-4-3_Contests/2002donor.htm

JARL doesn't provide a junior operators category, however, the
operator's 
age can be found from the exchange. So the Alumni Association of JA7YDX 
sponsors to the "Junior winner of sigle operator". If you are 18 years 
old or younger, please try to get this plaque. If you are a YL station 
and you are 18 years or younger, you had better write your real age on
the 
summary sheet. 

Though I wanted to notify this news to a lot of young operators, I 
don't have any address list of young operators. If there are young 
operators in your neighborhood or in your family, please tell him/her 
this event.

If you are a CT user, try to download a newer version from the following

registered user's site;
http://www.k1ea.com/ctvault/
Ken worked hard to meet the new rule of the All Asian DX Contest last 
year, and the ver 9.61 or later can be completeley fit to AADX.

If you have any question about this contest, please contact the JARL 
contest committee;  contest@jarl.or.jp

Thanks and 73,

1. The connection between computer and rig fails (bad or loose connection) 
and you don't notice right away.

2. Until recently, my K2 did not have a serial port, so it was an issue.

I agree with Randy & several others that the shortening the deadline, at
this time, does not appear to make sense.

Now, I'm all for getting contest results back in hand faster, but I think a
combination two things already in process will take care of this:

First, the posting of the results to the web when completed (which saves 6
to 8 weeks or more waiting for them to be printed in the appropriate
periodical & waiting for it to arrive snail mail).

Second, the significant number of logs being submitted in a standard format
electronically.  CQ already requires that all logs be sent electronically,
and it stands to reason that at some point in the future this will be
mandated for most or all of the major contests.  If the logs are in a
standard format, then it should be a lot faster for the contest committee to
compile data into their master database and then select only those logs that
may need scrutiny (for whatever reason) rather than handle pile after pile
of paper.

But shortening the deadline for two weeks, IMHO, puts an undue burden on
those who need the time to:
1.   go over their logs for mistakes -- as many have pointed out, there are
legitmate reasons for doing so
2.  need to return from travelling, either work or contest related, and then
get the logs in
3.  do not, for whatever reason, keep their contest logs electronically, or
do not use the correct format, or don't have email access, etc., and have to
make arrangements to get their logs converted or entered whatever and then
sent in to the appropriate email.

I'm sure that there will be at least two or three who will reply something
on the lines of "let them get computers, let them get a cheap ISP, and let
them get the right software!"   That's another thread for another time;
let's just say that I think it will be a sad day when a shack computer for
contest logging is mandated for contest operation (key word there is
"mandated")

I don't think log submission is the gating item in the log checking or

bother to shorten the deadline.

I would attack the problem a different way.  Give us an incentive to submit
more quickly!

I would try putting "checklog" in the subject line and in the soapbox field. I 
sent in 
cabrillo files to the ARRL for the 2001 CW and SSB DX contests. I wanted them 
used only
as checklogs and stated that very clearly in the soapbox fields. They ended up 
in the
contest results as regular entries. I suppose I could have said "I cheated in 
this
contest" in the soapbox fields and no one would have noticed - hi. I thought 
the emails
with my logs might bounce if I put "checklog" in the subject, but now I see 
that's
probably the proper way to get the message through.

This would be a very FUN contest if the JA's participated!

Get on 15 meters on a non-contest weekend and you'll have a JA pileup.  Get
on during a contest weekend and you'll be working 40/hr if you're lucky.

I stopped doing All Asia and JIDX a while ago.  Maybe I'l give out a few

You are welcome to visit the website of "World Wide Young Contesters" at
http://wwyc.webbg.com/. You can find many young operators in our members
list (http://wwyc.webbg.com/pages/members.php?pg=1). I have also forwarded
the announcement to our email reflector, so hopefully there will be some
competition for the plaque! Thanks to Alumni Association of JA7YDX for
sponsoring the prize.

Hope to work you in the contest!

Isn't it time to explicitly ask N1ND to explain the rationale for the 
proposed change?

FWIW, I agree with Randy -- the anti-cheating argument doesn't hold much

While this company does have a lot of different cases, their prices are high
(typical retail, no discount).  In addition, for the Pelican cases, they use
the same picture for every size case...

For cheap pelican cases, try www.cases4less.com among other web discounters
(I have no interest in Pelican or this website - it just has cheap cases and
delivers quickly).  This place sells the 1650 without foam for $155 - this
is cheaper than most personal luggage, and much more durable!

The experience of the 6Y2A and HC8N teams has lead us all to use the Pelican
1650 case.  For the durability and price, you can't beat it.  In addition,
these cases are used by divers, film crews etc, that they are very common,
and often go unnoticed.   I first got a ATA spec'd Hardigg case (VERY
expensive, and "military looking"), and it was stopped at every point for
inspection... not so with the Pelican case.

And as always, the foam you use to pack your equipment is THE most critical
item.  I have a lot of info and photos on packing the MP and other equipment
on my DxHoliday website:  http://dxholiday.com/dxresources.htm#equipmenttips

Message-ID: <f2.1cc5619b.2a34b08c@aol.com>

Several of y'all had asked me to keep you informed on my TH-7 boom conversion 
project.
Kirk, K4RO, had modified his tribander with an Omega match per N4KG's design 
and reports not only fine results, but even better, higher contest scores on 
40 meters. With Kirk's encouragement I set off to duplicate this antenna. I 
have a crank-up tower, so could not tune the antenna at it's operating 
height. Tuning it with the tower cranked down proved pointless. The resonant 
frequency changed drastically when extending the tower. I've finally found a 
solution to the problem which not only lets me tune the antenna to 1:1 
anywhere on 40 with the tower extended, it also gives me a 1:1 match on 30 as 
a bonus.
My description of the antenna, with photos, can be found at:

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Etiquette
Message-ID: <005601c20fc6$307dfea0$03010a0a@office1>

My club sponsors a local 2M FM contest every January.  We're starting to
work on the updated rules for the 2003 event.  I'd like to solicit some of
the more experienced ops here on the list for suggestions or advice... if
you're not interested, my apologies for the bandwith & no need to read
further.

A problem we ran into last year was that of, for lack of better terms, rude
or marginally ethical behavior from a few stations; most where newcomers or
non-contesters who didn't know better, and a few of the "damn the rules, win
at all costs" school.  As a result of this, we're thinking of doing two
things:

(a)  Add a rule to the effect that will permit disqualification for improper
behavior
(b)  Add to the rules a one-sheet addendum detailing what we consider "good
amateur practice."

The biggest problems last year were two-fold.

First, we had many situations were someone would call "CQ Contest" for
several minutes, finally get a call, work the "new" one -- and then get his
frequency clobbered by 10-12 stations who had simply been listening and then
jumped once the contact was made.  This scared off some of the "new" ones
who didn't know what was going on or how to handle a pile-up, and ticked off
the station calling CQ because "his" frequency was absconded.  (In the early
hour of the contest -- it runs 4 hours -- you'd hear someone politely asking
to call, and that worked out well.  In the last hour, politeness went out
the window as some got very ruthless about trying to "win").

Second, we had a situation with one club station who thought nothing of
calling "CQ" right on top of anyone -- be it a contact in progress, or
someone else calling CQ, or in one case a scheduled net (that we didn't know
about) trying to conduct themselves.  This station was also reported to be
trying to work stations on 146.52 & below simplex frequencies, which we had
explicitly declared as a "no contest" area for those trying to operate
outside the contest.  One of the ops did not take kindly to "suggestions"
from the contest committee to knock it off, which led to some interesting
situations -- it's actually kind of funny to hear someone tell the guy who
conceived the contest & wrote most of the rules that he didn't know what he
was talking about!  Sad, but funny.

Regardless, we're figuring that an "etiquette" page of "good amateur
practice" adapted for 2M FM Simplex will be a big help for those who simply
didn't know better and were just doing what they heard on the air.  And,
unfortunately, since we didn't have a "DQ" rule in place, we now see that we
need one to curb those that get out of hand.

Any suggestions welcome.  And thanks!

Make sure the case you buy is ATA rated, or the airlines will balk at paying 
damage claims.

Another tip from my roadie travel log - A nice new looking case gets lots 
more scrutiny (from nosy customs guys, security, thieves, etc.) than one that 
looks like it routinely travels. To give your gear that "used/travelled" 
look, get some stickers and plaster all over them. Rip them and make them 
aged looking for more authenticity. Freebie radio station call letter bumper 
stickers and things like that are good, as are old worn looking shipping 
labels (even if they are fake). After a while and some mileage, you won't 
have to worry about it - the stickers will be necessary to hold the case 
together!

Hi everyone:

        Allow me to throw a match onto this dying thread.  I guess I'm in
the minority on this one, and I'm willing to consider that my thinking is
colored by the fact that I have a WPX-friendly callsign that's actually
assigned to me !
        Firstly, I'm not sure that some of the respondents addressed  the
intent of the original question - either that, or I misunderstood it, hi.
The original post referred to the increasingly common practice of a single
op using someone else's callsign, when the licensee is in no way connected
with the operation aside from "lending" the callsign, and the operation is
clearly not at the QTH of the licensee.  From the responses so far:

-  in N6TJ's example, it should be fine to use the DX station's call - it's
his station, licensed to his QTH !

-  in K4OJ's example, WC4E's call was used at a location not his own, but
when I look at the ops listed for that operation, Jeff is listed as one
    of the ops, and if I know Jeff, he was there for much if not all of the
weekend !  This practice has apparently been OK at least for 20 years.  Jeff
was THERE during the operation.

-  in the NS0Z/K4VX example, I'm assuming that if they are married, they
live together, and NS0Z's license shows that address as the QTH !   No
problem with that !

-  the Rex Maner / WR7HE post may be the only example that accurately
reflects the original question...

Do the FCC regulations really allow for this practice ?  I remember 30 years
ago when we had to be very careful about signing portable, even when at a
friend's house across town.  Then, I think about 20 years ago, apparently it
became unnecessary to sign portable, and then any US call could be anywhere
in the USA.  Have we now gotten to the point where the callsign  used in the
contest doesn't have to give ANY information about the location OR the
operator ?  I don't think this practice is acceptable for DXCC, for example,
otherwise I could have gotten 5BWAZ from KC1XX a long time ago while never
leaving my house !

Consider this:  the operator using the call gets an FCC citation
(unintentionally, of course), which is sent to the licensee, not the
operator.  If it were your callsign being used, can you picture yourself
saying "well, uh, gee, I really don't know anything about it - the operation
wasn't at my house, and I was never there.  I let some guy use my call for
the weekend..."

I'm all for trying to get competitive advantages, within the rules.  I just
wonder if this one is something that we should be doing.  And, I mean no
disrespect to my friends and fellow contesters who may have done this in the
past.  I simply offer my thoughts as fodder for possible discussion.

If you're really looking for that advantage in WPX, trade in your primary
call for a 2x1 !  They work just fine the other 50 weekends too !

                                                        Regards
Stu            KC1F

The best solution to the WPX callsign issue is to form a club and get a club
callsign for WPX. It only takes 3 other members and they don't even have to
be hams (XYL and kids in my case - WK6LA, the West LA Contest Club.)

Message-ID: <3D03CDB1.A7A@erols.com>

I know that ARRL HQ, many times, has permitted their call (W1AW) to be 
used at various venues. Dayton, for example, operates W1AW/8 at their 
site.  I know this was done because I visited Dayton and saw W1AW/8 being 
operated. I also know that the ARRL had issued them a letter advising 
that they had permission to do so AND the ARRL quoted an FCC part 97 rule 
section which authorized it.

Our local ham club at Social Security Admin did the same thing. Had their 
club/group callsign used at individuals homes as part of an event but 
again.. they had authorization from the Club trustee to do it.

As far as I can understand it, in the case of an individual allowing his 
call to be used by another when they aren't there.. this would seem to be 
OK assuming the control op (the person in charge of the operation) is 
adhering to the rules for being a control op and operations are within 
the priveledges of the licensee acting as control op.  OF course.. if an 
FCC cite makes it way to the holder of the callsign being used.. htey are 
going to have to answer it since they are the one responsible for the 
callsign. The control operator may have some culpability and may be 
guilty of violating the rules and have some accountability, but the 
callsign holder is the one who getsthe cite and has to answer it.

I've got to get in another .02c worth.  Yes the holder of the call sign is
going to have to answer any citation issued for improper operation.  The
holder of the call has to have enough trust in the borrower that operation
will follow the rules.   The answer to a citation would, in most cases only
have to say that an error was made while in the heat of contesting and steps
have been taken to assure that this type of infraction will not re-occure.

Being a good contester, I decided to get TWO.  I asked if I could get two
rebates and they said "as long as I sent them in separately."   After I had
checked out, they THEN told me they have a "one rebate per household" rule
but confidentially advised me to get around it by sending them in from two
different addresses.

Whatever.  Be prepared.

I hope the monitors are as good as you say, Dave.

What Dave didn't say was that they also have the EN-910s on sale with the
rebate - which makes them something like $150 after rebate.  I didn't think
two of them would fit on the desk.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] 1 and 2
Message-ID: <20020611092031.44326.qmail@web13805.mail.yahoo.com>

Hi Contesters,


In the big contests (mainly WW) I often hear (A and B
VFO) that multi and/or single (!) station calling CQ
TEST (with a big signal) and same callsign ?MULT? (S&P
with a weak signal) goes back in same band same time.
(I think there are 2 stations (signals) in same band
same time.) That?s cheating. I have an idea to stop
them (perhaps): if the CQ station gives a nr: 1 after
the zone or nr (59/599 151 or 59/599 0011) and the
BACK station gives a nr: 2 after the zone or nr
(59/599 152 or 59/599 0012) so then the contest
committee can see clearly (?) the cheating: that MULT
and non mult QSOs in pileups (with 2 in 1s) in the
log?

What's Your opinion?

Zoli,

The technique you're suggesting can only show if the station worked was
called or calling. Nothing else. It is legal to make a QSO by any way -
running or S&Ping in random order...
How could you possibly know what was going on from this "Log":

1233   HA5PP   59001R  59001M
1233  HA6PP   59002R  57001M
1234  HA7PP  59003M  59014R
1237  HA8PP  59004R  59006M
1238  HA9PP  59005R  59001M
etc
(I used R and M instead of 1 and 2, for better clarity)

Back in 1970ies and 80ies, with 15 minute time limits for Multi/Single
stations, the cheating was done using "rubber clock": A running station
started the designated time block operation 2-3 minutes earlier, and
remained 2-3 minutes longer, thus making each 15 minute segment actually 20
minutes of operation. So, each hour was splitted in 4 time segments, and
actuall operation lasted not 60 but 80 minutes. Multiply it by 48 hours, and
you get 960 minutes of extra time per station, or 16 hours. Both runner and
multiplier station make total of 32 extra hours during 48 hour contest.
Those "experts" risked only 2-3 minutes of simultaneous operation on two
bands, every 15 minutes, but you will agree that it was very difficult to
catch this, even with carefull monitoring. Those were the days of paper
logs, and it was easy to correct times and squeeze these 2-3 minutes within
15 minute limits. Log cross checking by a committee could not easyly detect
this, due to the fact that 2 or 3 minutes difference in reported times could
be addressed to slightly detuned clocks used. And those "masters" knew it.

Computer logging made some trouble to this technique, since the clocks
became much better tuned now :-)

However, new technique emerged: having another S&P station on a runner's
band. As long as you keep one signal at a time, it is perfectly legal to
collect anything you wish on a runner's band, using second radio (and
amplifier and antenna too...). Many big Multi Multis are using twin setup
per band, and you can see it on their web pages. They do not advertise the
way they keep a single signal at a time, though. And there are big Multis
that don't care about this limit...

I do not mean to discourage you in an attempt to protect honest hams from
cheaters, but the situation we have today is very dissapointing:
QRP winners were using few hundred watts; Low power high scorers were using
high power; High power highscorers were using many many kilowatts; Single op
entrants had assistants, or used packet clusters; Multi op teams had more
than a single signal per limit at a time, or spread their contest QTH across
entire nation, or had a remote receiver placed close to a 3 point continent
and relayed the audio via various means, etc;  Not to mention heavy
pre-contest advertising, web announcements, special awards or QSL cards,
T-shirts and mugs for fivebanders, sixbanders...

Maybe, with this new Time Machine invention, bands can be monitored very
succesfully, and cheaters caught easier. But then, the cheaters usually just
get warned, their score omitted from the listings, and it only turns them to
be more cautious next time :-(

In the big contests (mainly WW) I often hear (A and B
VFO) that multi and/or single (!) station calling CQ
TEST (with a big signal) and same callsign ?MULT? (S&P
with a weak signal) goes back in same band same time.
(I think there are 2 stations (signals) in same band
same time.) That?s cheating. I have an idea to stop
them (perhaps): if the CQ station gives a nr: 1 after
the zone or nr (59/599 151 or 59/599 0011) and the
BACK station gives a nr: 2 after the zone or nr
(59/599 152 or 59/599 0012) so then the contest
committee can see clearly (?) the cheating: that MULT
and non mult QSOs in pileups (with 2 in 1s) in the
log?

What's Your opinion?

Hello Zoli,
  Many of the big USA M/M stations have two stations
for each band.  They usually have a big stack for the
run station, and a smaller monobander on a seperate
tower for the multiplier station.  That explains the
signal difference.  Most of these stations, however,
run an interlock which prevents two signals being
transmitted on the same band.  I know for sure W3LPL
has such a setup and I believe K3LR and KC1XX probably
do to.  
  These M/M stations aggressively work any station
they can find, and any DX spot, all the while
continuing to CQ. However it has been my experience
that they do watch out and have methods in place to
prevent transmitting more than 1 signal on a band at a
time. 
   What you probably heard was a station CQing in one
spot, and happened to catch the mult station make a
QSO while the CQing station was pausing for a reply.  
   If you definitely heard a station transmitting more
than one signal in the same band, I recommend emailing
the sponsors.  If enough people complain, they'll do
something about it.

That may be true of some stations, but the legit ones are very quick to
share the techniques they use...and have done so right here on this
reflector.

WRTC2002 COMMITTEE ANNOUNCES ONE MORE TEAM

How many cards are there in a pack of cards? Yes, and that is the number of 
world-class teams in WRTC2002. Fifty-two (52) two-man teams are busy shaping 
their strategies to compete for the title of  World's Best in Amateur Radio 
Team Contesting. Gold, silver and bronze medals are being polished for 
presentation to the winners.

We are delighted to have Hrane Milosevic, YT1AD and Mladen Bogdanov, YU7NU join 
the event as a wildcard selection and second team from Yugoslavia. The Yugoslav 
team will replace the N6KT/ K6NA team since Rich, N6KT is not able to come for 
reasons beyond his control. We invite Rich to be in Helsinki in spirit and 
welcome Glenn Ratman,K6NA as one of our senior referees at WRTC2002.

After WRTC 2002 I will be on a Baltic Cruise from July 19 to July 26 and
we will be docking at the ports listed above.  Would like to meet some
of the locals at least for a beer while we're in port.  Please let me know
if you are available.

I'll be in NW Connecticut for FD Weekend and am looking for a FD site to
invade for a couple hours- I'll be in Goshen  (Woodridge Lake area)-
Anything happening at Mohawk Mtn or close by?
I worked at one years ago north of Torrington but dont remember where it
was- I just remember a big mountain, rain and good, cold beer.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Automated Logs Received Page for ARRL Contests
Message-ID: <125490A005E3D3118C9C00805FC743CC044F8D45@KAHLESS>

At noon on Friday June 14, ARRL turned on an automated "Logs Received" page
for the ARRL June VHF QSO Party.  All properly submitted electronic logs
that are receipted by the Contest Robot are automatically added to the page
on an hourly basis.

Logs that are returned to the sender with a message citing problems and
needing corrections are not receipted by the Robot and will not appear on
the list. They will only appear once corrections are made by the participant
and the re-submitted log has been receipted by the Robot.  Paper logs that
must be manually entered by the ARRL Contest Branch staff also will not
appear on the list until after submission deadlines have passed for the
contest and all data entry for the paper logs has been completed.

This automated system be utilized for all future ARRL-sponsored contests
that are supported by the Cabrillo format and the Contest Robot.

Field Day is not supported by the Robot.  Field Day logs will be posted once
all initial data entry for the event has been finished.

If you have questions, please feel free to contact me at n1nd@arrl.org or by
phone at 860-594-0232.

My station is still available for many of the summer contests.  This is
your chance to try out different radios, big antennas, amps, SO2R, etc
with low pressure contests.  I now have the SO2R setup installed and
working so you can try that stuff out.  I also have vhf/uhf setup for
6m, 2m, 70cm, though only low power and on one radio.  Bring a friend or
two and do a multi op.  There is no charge for using my station, I see
this as a chance to keep the dust off the equipment and test out changes
during the summer slow times.  Please feel free to pass this info on to
anyone who you think may be interested.

I have operations scheduled now for:
6/22-23 Field Day
7/13-14 IARU - doing m/s, could still use an op or two

This would be an interesting statistic - I would be especially interested
from the other side of the rim - wonder if there are any major JA or other
Asian logs which could be crunched for data as to ages of the US
entrants....CT, NA etc import quite nicely into Excel!

I know Sweepstakes Checks have been looked at along these lines but this
would be even more telling!

With WriteLog in RTTY, I use the mouse only to highlight parts of his 
report that my log needs (his call  and individual pieces of his contest 
exchange).  I could type these in, but mousing is easier. The F keys are 
set up to do the rest.

Typically in an RTTY contest, I have two mouse clicks and two key presses 
per QSO when running

In CW or SSB, I would type them in rather than mouse click.

Hello Steve
NA does this very well and also CT an TR programs do the same things.  I
like NA for personal reasons.  It covers almost any contest you can think of
and some that you dream up.
A free down load can be had from http://www.ac6v.com/  I'm sure that it is
available several other places.

Hi Contesters,


There was a pretty good condx (20 and 15 m) during
AA-DX CW (and WPX CW also) but sorry there were not
enough participans. Or there were lots of
"participans" with NO activity, only looked clusters
for some rare country and do not give a little QSO to
avid contest stations. I saw ages in AA-DX CW, all
(90-95 %) conesters gave me over 36 years (I gave 40.)
I think that Asia is "old". After 20 years will not be
contesters there, or most of Asians will give 56, 66,
58, 78, 87, 95 101... How about this in USA and EU??

Congrats to W1PL, Laci (Laci bacsi), I heard his
number is 90. Long live Laci bacsi, long live ham
contest!!!

The only contest logging software I've used is TR-Log. It was recommended 
to me 5 years ago by several fellow contesters and I've never regretted the 
decision to try TR-Log. Literally, it does everything. Being in the DOS 
environment doesn't bother me. I also use it for non-contest logging. If 
you are a CW op, you will really appreciate its endless capabilities.

Steve, I would give WL a strong vote over TR.  TR is a DOS program.  Not that 
there is anything wrong with that, as Seinfeld would say.  It's just that you 
would be latching onto something from an old generation.  

I have been using WL for 3 years and, although I have my frustrations with 
it, I do really love it.  A friend of mine who is a died-in-the-wool TR geek 
had me try TR.  In a way, it is really cleaver, but I did find it quite 
difficult to used to.  TR has many wonderful features, but for me WL does the 
job nicely.

Actually, you could adopt both WL and TR, and have a really fun time learning 
both.  Throw in CT and NA for grins.  With the combination, you would 
probably have max flexibility for contesting!

Folks,

Just in time for FD the freeware version of TR has been posted to the TR web
site. It is based on the latest version, 6.68, and is fully functional for a
limited number of contests including ARRL Field Day, Stew Perry, Region One
Field Day, Japanese International DX Contest, New Zealand Field Day, South
American World  Wide Contest, ...and CW Simulator Mode. There have been many

Message-ID: <RELAY14o4x1vbE0BPnM00087515@relay1.softcomca.com>

I'll be attending a CITEL meeting in Fortaleza in mid-July and was wondering if 
there are any contesters/DXers there who would like to get together during the 
meeting (some ARRL folks will be there, too).

Message-ID: <008101c216cb$d7175d40$8600a8c0@yumaaz.adelphia.net>

With the advent of ARRL's enhanced on-line contest
reporting,
constraints on the number of contest categories
imposed by available QST space
are removed, or at least reduced. Computerized
log-checking has also reduced
the need to minimize the number of categories in
contests, since the administrative
overhead has been reduced.

I'd like to see the High Band (10, 15, 20) and Low
Band (40, 80, 160) categories
restored in the ARRL DX Test. There are a number
of reasons why I think this move
would enhance the contest world-wide:

1. Declining JA activity has made it much more
difficult for western USA
stations to compete in all categories, but
especially the all-band category,
where absorption on 40, 80, and 160 precludes big
European runs.

2. There are a lot of stations around the world
who have a small tower and tribander
in the back yard, and an assortment of low,
seriously compromised antennas for 40,
80, and 160. There is not much incentive for these
stations to get on the air in the
all band category, since they know that they
cannot turn in a competitive score. On the
other hand, a tribander can do a quite creditable
job on the high bands, which would
encourage activity.

3. The single-band category, while enabling
disadvantaged stations to be more competitive
on one single band, rapidly gets to be pretty
boring.

4. The High band/ low band categories would enable
SO2R operation, making the contest much
more interesting than single band category, where
SO2R is impracticable for most people.


To me, the payoff in any contest is to enjoy the
contest experience itself, and, afterward, to
to see how I ranked, with the data arranged the
way I like to see it presented. I
really don't care about QST listings or
certificates. By the time QST and the certificates
come out, the contest is old news. Coupled with
the ARRL's growing accent on Internet
score reporting, I think the additional categories
would add a spark of growth and an
interesting new dimension to the ARRL DX Test.

I would like to add my humble vote "yes" to this idea.

As Dave mentions in his list of reasons, I'm one of those
ops that has been doing single band efforts the last few 
years because I get whipped like a rented mule on 80/160.
Even with good conditions and high Q totals my "all band" 
scores are pathetic.

Normally I don't subscribe to the idea of making changes 
just to allow more folks into the winning circle but this is a
good idea. It will allow the low banders the weekend for
non radio stuff and the highbanders some sleep. As the
cycle swings the crowd will shift from high to low. 

The ops that win "all band" will still win "all band", of course, 
as I doubt they would be interested in this idea. Their plaque 
would still look the same with or without high/low divisions 
but their scores might be reduced overall somewhat as some
stations will refuse to move up/down.

There is no down side to Dave's idea. You might be against
it if you were serious about getting the world record but that's
a long way off now and maybe never happen as TVI and old
age wipes us out one by one.

While I will be the first to say that "we don't need no stinking new 
categories - we got too many already", I believe that Dave's proposal makes 
much sense.

i *am* old enough to remember the "hign band" and "low band" categories, and 
probably would enter one of these categories occasionally (and probably let 
someone else simultaneously do the other one as well).

Dave's points are very well taken, although my personal interest in that I'd 
love to spend lots of time on the lowbands - all of them - yet still be 
potentially competitive (hmmm, lowband SSB - maybe I'd skip that one :) then 
again, maybe not)

I have to agree wholeheartedly with Dave.  When the high and low band 
categories were created for the ARRL DX Contest in the middle seventies, it 
seemed to me like a great idea.  To paraphrase Dave's points, it seemed 
like there were a number of ways to be really competitive in high band; 
from a TH6 to a big quad, to a monobander Christmas tree.  When I first 
went off to school in Arkansas in 1976, I saw the other side.  My new 
friend WA5RTG (now K5GO) was an avid entry in the low band category, with a 
Mosley S-402 shorty-fourty (a big antenna in those days) and an assortment 
of low band wires.  As Dave points out, you don't have to focus on big 
antennas for six bands.

While I respect the efforts put forth by the single band entrants, those 
categories have little or no interest to me.

I never understood why the low and high band categories were done away 
with.  I would like to see some consideration given to bringing them back.

Yes, this is a very good idea. Many low-budget contesters find it hard to
get good antennas for all the 6 bands, yet find that a weekend stuck on just
one band can get rather monotonous. A Low or High Band entry gives a guy/gal
more enjoyment and variety without the need for the such a big antenna
set-up.

But why keep it just for the ARRL DX Test ? Surely there are other contests
where this would work as well.

Who should we write to in order to get this idea really moving ????

They were done away with to encourage more participation on the low
bands. It was thought that the ubiquitous tribander in concert with
the high band category was keeping the little guys off the low bands.

The WPX tribander/wires category is a partial answer to this that
suits the little guy.

Also, why NOT allow an entrant to submit more than one single band
entry. What harm does that do? Takes a very skilled contester to max
out two different bands.

Message-ID: <90A937CA4FC5B247896E968A21A92E7D0DBAB7@EMAIL7.bsu.edu>

Let me tell you why antenna- or propagation-challenged ops
did NOT like the High/Low band categories in the ARRL DX
test and why the single band categories were big improvements.

Low band means you must have good antennas for 3 difficult
bands - 40, 80 and 160 to be competitive.  Many of us can
swing one or another of those, at least on a temporary
basis but cannot get up or keep up all three.

Similarly, while tribanders are popular antennas for the
high bands, to do well in the High Band category, you need
propagation on all three bands!  This may be ok for those
in Florida, who apparently get 10 meter openings to DX even
in the punk years, but is murder for those in the Midwest.

The Single Band categories are much superior.  If you want
to operate two or three bands, you can, and still enter
you best band as a Single Band score. This is much more
likely to be competitive or "respectible" than entering
a Tri-band category with only one band's score, especially
since multipliers count on a "per-band" basis.

I have to agree wholeheartedly with Dave.  When the high and low band 
categories were created for the ARRL DX Contest in the middle seventies, it 
seemed to me like a great idea.  To paraphrase Dave's points, it seemed 
like there were a number of ways to be really competitive in high band; 
from a TH6 to a big quad, to a monobander Christmas tree.  When I first 
went off to school in Arkansas in 1976, I saw the other side.  My new 
friend WA5RTG (now K5GO) was an avid entry in the low band category, with a 
Mosley S-402 shorty-fourty (a big antenna in those days) and an assortment 
of low band wires.  As Dave points out, you don't have to focus on big 
antennas for six bands.

While I respect the efforts put forth by the single band entrants, those 
categories have little or no interest to me.

I never understood why the low and high band categories were done away 
with.  I would like to see some consideration given to bringing them back.

At medium high latitudes when the sun-cycle will be low, an "high band" 
category will merge more or less into a SB20 entry.

Not really. Do 10 or 15, and 80 or 160. Except for the peak of the cycle, 
when one is open the other is dead.

I can see the arguments on both sides of the High Band/Low Band debate, but
what's the rationale behind allowing only one single-band entry? The ARRL DX
rules make a pretty big deal out of prohibiting this, so there must be a
reason. But on the surface, it seems like it would increase participation
and fun. There are definitely some interesting possibilities for SO2R ops.

After reading my prior post a few time, I realized how the sentence
could be read otherwise...

Let me reword.

New entry category: Two-band. Single operator only.
Entrant picks any two bands. Entry is scored in the same fashion as an
all band entry that was confined to two bands. All two-band entries
compete together by power level regardless of the bands picked. No
band-change restrictions between the two bands.

Picking the two best bands with night/day, propagation, equipment, all
to maximize score will tax operator knowledge and skill. Or operate
what your circumstances allow you.

73, Guy.

I'd like to second that idea also!  During the day, contests are
a lot of fun from the west coast, but after dark things get
pretty slow for us "vertical and low dipole" crowd.  On Friday
night, it is not worth while trying to beat out the "big guns" on
the 40 and 80 meter pileups.  The incessant calling and calling
(meat for another time) on low bands makes it impossible to work
any dx from the west coast with a small station.  The endless run
of JA's that used to make it exciting just doesn't happen any
more.  Having a low band-high band category makes good sense.  73

Message-ID: <9e.2819e84b.2a42a118@aol.com>

Our Alpha 87 manual appears to be among the "lost, strayed,  or stolen" 
category.

Does anyone have a suggestion of how we can get a replacement manual?

Actually all we really need at the moment is the section that describes the 
procedure for setting up the "Bandpass" L/C circuits.  Most of the time it 
has been used in the "Manual" mode, but it seems a good time to check the 
settings for the "Bandpass" mode in case we need to use this feature.

Thanks,

I've just got to throw my "two cents" into this one. 

The Hi/Lo Band idea is one whose time has definitely (re) arrived..

For many of us time and circumstances have conspired to make the SO/AB
catagory no longer a practical option.  Some contesters elect, as I often
do, to settle for a SO/SB which can be fun ... up to a point.  I've often
simply operated just the Hi-Bands and submitted the log in the AB
catagory.  In one instance I chose the Tribander/Wires catagory with zero
Qs on the wires.  A bit silly, but it was an option.  (Actually my 15 M
SO/SB score would have earned me a higher place finish ... but it didn't
really matter as I had a real blast that weekend.)

If the contest sponsors do no more than allow the Hi/Lo band catagories
to be designated in the listinigs (published or Web) I think it would be
fun to see how things stack up amongst those who chose this approach.  

Give the plaques and praise to the SO/AB winners, they certainly deserve
them.  But let the rest of us have some fun in our own arena.

Nuff said ...

Joe, W5ASP

I have been assigned a few hours of FD operating
on VHF/UHF, an area in which I don't have any
experience. What are some good techniques?

We will have several rigs, 6 thru 440, SSB and CW,
and I guess FM, with beams, from San Diego, with a
clear over-ocean path all the way up to Santa
Barbara. Only one station can transmit at a time.

Thanks.

I have 38 YU7SF contest qsos in my logging program just since 1990, and I'll
bet there'd be twice as many as that counting YU1SF qsos going back to the
early 1970s.  I don't remember any big scores from him, but he'd be there to
call me in EVERY contest.  We never said anything more than contest
exchanges, but he was a contest fixture.  I remember he always noted the
number of total contests he had participated in on his QSLs, and I think his
WAE soapbox indicated he had participated in something like 35 straight WAE
contests.  RIP Laci...

Field Day software.

The WASH club ended up using the Network version of N3FJP's free FD package.
I've got to admit to being impressed.  The networking was smooth as silk,
the software was extremely easy & intuitive to use, and it made CW solo
operating & logging a breeze.

A lot of people in the club were surprised that it was that good a package
for a free download, and several are going to recommend that we go ahead and
register it.  Just wait till they see how low the registration fee is...

If some of his other offerings are this good or better, I may just drop CT

I believe the uplink was 2.4GHz, and I think the downlink was either 2M or

The "official" ARRL Summary sheet shows it listed as "Satellite".

(TIP: Use the ARRL Summary form and mail it in ... that way you're sure
all the required information is filled in.)

Tom-
The CORRECT band to show satellites contacts on is SAT. However, if your
program does not have that (like ours- WL, or older versions of NA) then log
the satellite Q's on any band- or the TX freq - or a band that didn't have
any other Q's. We logged them on 220. Then make a note to the sponsor and
log checker as to what you have done.
The important thing is that they are identitied as SATELLITE contacts.
GL to you guys. We haven't talleyed our score yet, but it should be close to
our score from last year. Bet we are in a horse race for MO state honors.

The correct band would be Satellite. Otherwise I would assume it to be your
recieved freq. My reasoning would be that is where you copied the
exchange. Just like in a split op on HF, the DX tx freq is the one that goes on
the QSL card not your tx freq. (Downlink is 70cm)

Just one man's opinion, I could be wrong.

I especially like that eternal favorite "You're," as in...

"You're 1C Kansas"

Now, THAT gets old, too.

My favorite is "Thanks for Nevada, that's a new one."

The best on-site event happened to me a few years ago. I was coaching a new 
general at his first FD and first time on HF. I went through the logging, 
exchange, etc, and demonstrated a few QSO's. I turned the rig over to him and 
went to the rest room. When I returned he hadn't made a single QSO. I asked 
what the problem was. He said he couldn't tune anyone in. Puzzled, I asked 
for an example. He set the dial, as you would on a VHF radio, to an even 
frequency, like 144.940. The only problem was that there was no one zero beat 
on 14.280 or 14.290, so he couldn't work anyone. 

But then, FD is where many of us learned the inside skinny about hamming.

Patience is a virtue.

I feel your pain. I heard the same thing. I also heard one of our ops S&Ping

a stab at changing their operating habits, but when I asked, "Do you operate
HF much?", one said "not at all," so I didn't bother. I think these guys
must be having fun otherwise, why would they come out, but it sure is hard
to be in the concert hall when most of the piano players seem to be playing

I don't think that "forthright correcting" is what is needed.  A "kinder,
gentler" approach is what's needed.

Those of us who can operate, need to demonstrate the proper way to operate,
so that these newbies can learn from it and hopefully emulate what they've
seen.

It seems that many of them are intrigued by the process of running stations,
even on CW, when they may not be able to copy themselves.

Let's face it, when their shack is on their belt, they don't get any
experience or training on how to work stations quickly and efficiently.

A couple of years ago, I stopped by a local Field Day set up at a very
visible public park.  They were set up in a large pavilion with antennas
hanging all around.  There were large signs, lots of literature for visitors
to pick up, and people hanging around, ready to talk to visitors.   They had
two stations.  One was empty, the other was manned by one person, with a
crowd gathered around watching him.  I watched for about 15 minutes while he
tuned around and worked no one!  Do you think this was exciting to visitors?
I think not.  I didn't know any of these folks so I just left, but they
obviously had no clue what to do on the air.

We also need to remember that those we're working at the other end of the
path may be equally challenged and need encouragement, rather than
criticism.

We have a pre-FD meeting about 2-3 days before the weekend. At that time, 
we try to give any new ops, or any old ops who still persist, 'suggestions' 
on what to say and what NOT to say... with particular attention to what NOT 
to say. For the most part, it seems to work pretty well, though some will 
revert, regardless of what they know is right.

Of course, we Do have to remember that this is a TRAINING EXERCISE and not 
a contest, so should be willing to 1) cut everyone some slack, and 2) 
attempt to further "suggest" possibly better (e.g. more 
appropriate/efficient) methods of getting the information passed without 
unnecessary verbiage. But I don't necessarily think that it's all that 
appropriate to correct them WHILE they're on the air (unless they wish to 
be), and often in front of a number of their friends. Doing so can often 
cause you to lost an otherwise good operator.

Tom Hammond   N0SS

Don't forget the 20M op who never makes a Q because he can't "find a clear 
spot".

Why?

That's one of the things about Field Day ... to teach these folks proper
operating procedures!  If we want to build the contest ranks, we
contesters must be the ones to pass along what we know to those who show
any kind of interest.  If we don't take the time to teach proper
operating procedures, we can't turn around and complain about poor
operating procedures.  

Our Field Day set-up included the new "GOTA" station ... which had none
other than K1TO teaching the newbies proper operating procedures!  If
you're going to learn, it might as well be from one of the best.

That's what Field Day is all about.

In past years when this has happened to me, for fun I'd sometimes say 
something like:

"OK W7ABC 1A Georgia"
"2A Washington"
"W7ABC Thanks QRZ Field Day K7AW"

And take the frequency.  

Mean, I know.    :)

Partly because I'm lazy, mostly because, these aren't a bunch of 12 year old
kids. As a matter of fact, at the ripe old age of 43 I was the youngest guy

I have NEVER understood this timeless Newington pronouncement.  Somebody
show me why accuracy and efficiency should not be rewarded, especially
during an Emergency Preparedness Exercise.

I know I'm preaching to the choir.

My only guess is that it is an attempt to "not turn away the curious
newcomer."  But what does that tell us about our image to the others?
Perception is everything whether based in reality or not.  We can't ignore
this, and my guess is a substantial investment in this area by contesters
would yield an excellent return.

I think having Dennis in the Marketing chair at the ARRL could be a good
turn for contesting, but not if we sit around and watch.

Well, unless you're about to strangle the guy in the tent with his own mic
cord if says "please copy, you're..." one more time.  Better for contesting
if you just keep THAT to yourself  :)

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Internet free computer time syncronization???
Message-ID: <200206251540.g5PFe0Tf019363@rm-rstar.sfu.ca>

I was recently introduced to Beaconsee and at one station where
I would like to use it, relying on the internet for clock
syncronization is not realistic. Does anyone know of a
cost effective means of doing this? I have been looking
for an "atomic clock" which connects to the computer,
similar to an alarm clock I have, but so far I have
not found one. One product I found that uses satellites
costs around $500, which is out of the question.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

And you're exactly right.  If it's promoted as a contest - even lightly -
we'll lose a lot of folks that just don't want to be or think they can be
"competitive".  Without getting into the psychology of it all, I think the
contest community's best return on time invested would be to...

1) Be there at Field Day and teach, teach, teach...
2) Suggest a Field Day challenge of another local club - say CW-against-CW
or something like that so it doesn't require that all operators be fully
committed to compete.
3) Right after Field Day, when everybody is still full of good memories,
suggest some kind of Sweepstakes "event" within the club for making, say,
100 QSOs or working 70 sections.  Challenge another local club in some way.
4) Remind folks about the easy-going, friendly August NAQP (or whatever the
equivalent is in your QTH)
5) Pounce on the guys that are having the best time and organize a low-key
multi-op for WW or something.

Field Day is mostly a competition between one's own group, Mother Nature,
and the Forces of Murphy.  For those of us that take it to the next level,
we can do that, too.  It would be a good idea to add to the Field Day write
up - in the spirit of enhancing contest coverage in QST without adding
pages - commentary to the effect of, "If you enjoyed the freewheeling
hurly-burly of Field Day, try entering the following events..."

......AA4GA says..

"OK W7ABC 1A Georgia"
"2A Washington"
"W7ABC Thanks QRZ Field Day K7AW"

And take the frequency.  

Mean, I know.    :)

K3FT opines..

Mean? NO WAY!  It's all part of the game. If
another op gives the opening because they are
unaware of a technique.. then it's fair game to
take and go! It's part of learning. 

They will wonder 'what happened?' (maybe!) and
that might provoke them to learn something.

It is like any other effort. If you play a sport
and the other team is short of info on a proper
technique to play and you see the advantage and
take it.. well... life is...'

One thing about 'real life on the air contesting'
it plays no favorites and gives no quarter. It's
equitable.. and all can learn the tricks and
tips.

Thanks to all who worked K3FT and gave Q's! I

Message-ID: <Springmail.0994.1025021342.0.46909400@webmail.pas.earthlink.net>

K5ZM (at K7AW) said he heard:

>"CQ Field Day, W7ABC..."
>
>"K7AW.."
>
>"K7AW, go ahead.." (??!!)

And it's not just FD.

There is a prominent local W1-area VHF/UHF college club station that operates
exactly
this way during VHF contests (at least the two in which I have operated and
listened to them...and sometimes they even omit the "go ahead" part). That is,
when they can actually hear any of the stations calling them, since turning a
beam occasionally also seems to be outside their skill set. I won't mention
the station specifically, but it is located at a famous Institute of
Technology in Massachusetts. Some operators/stations are just painful to
listen to.

But once in a while, a good op shows up at the local club FD site. The most
important lesson in contest operating I *ever* learned was on FD, when I took
over from the club hotshot on 40SSB, and was incredibly tense and nervous. I
starting talking so fast nobody could understand me, got all worked up when I
couldn't copy a guy calling me or if two guys called at once. The club
hotshot, Howie Gould, then K1HHN, now W9HG, tapped me on the shoulder and said
"Come on now, take a deep breath and relax. Don't get so worked up. This is
supposed to be fun, right? So have fun!". 

That was in 1969 I think.

And I'm still having fun. Thanks, Howie.

Speaking of which, I think I heard more bugs and Lake Erie swings over

Thanks for the replies to my previous message, but I guess
the title I chose did not convey the idea I wanted.

I am looking for a means of syncronizing the computer's
clock WITHOUT HAVING AN INTERNET CONNECTION.

I am aware of some of the software that will do it
via the internet, but in the particular situation I
have in mind, using the internet is not an option.

Any thoughts???

Thanks again.

Check out this web site:

  http://www.radiocontrolledclock.com/

They sell clocks that sync off low-frequency transmissions of WWVB.  One model
has a serial port which can be used to synchornize your computer:

I, for one, am grateful for every contact I make during FD weekend with a 
new station or operator that might normally never get on during HF contest 
operations.

As I work the "inefficient ops", I make a point, not always, but often, of 
thanking them for the contact, wishing them a "good morning'" before I give 
the exchange, and even take a second to ask the op where the exact location 
and setup situation might be.

Adherence to ultra rate highly efficient contest QSO exchange format ? - 
not exactly.
Fun ? - yes.
Will it bring somebody new into a weekend chase ? - Hopefully.
Do I care at how inept the "other end" might be in the QSO exchange ? - Nope.

A conventional GPS that has a standard serial connection can furnish 
accurate time synch to the PC. Not sure what software is required, but I 
believe UI-View has it built-in. Maybe other products as well.

I was considering adding a cheap GPS to this computer for time synch, but 
then was able to hook it to my home network instead, so now it gets its 
time synch from the internet via freeware NetLab 1.4 instead. Back when I 
shopped, I found GPS refurbs as low as $50 (TripMate brand).

The very early computer clocks could be adjusted for drift. Don't know if 
any motherboards still offer that - maybe you could hack an outboard 
circuit to do it for your motherboard, then have the opsys reset the 
software clock from that periodically??

While we're on the subject, and understand I don't consider myself of
your cr?me de le cr?me contester types.  I do enjoy contesting and work
hard to get the rate up and keep it there... HOWEVER, most noticeable to
me during the just passed field day are the number of stations who call
a station running a frequency and immediately sending their report as
part of their initial call - even during a pileup.  So, in the middle of
our pileups, a station is trying hard to work us, but cannot seem to
wait until he knows we're calling him. This appears more pervasive and
critical than some simple grammar "you are" stuff.  If you're calling a
station, you best make darned sure he's talking to you before you send
your exchange. On a couple of occassions, stations that did that to
me... Often waited until they were the ONLY ones left trying to work me,
and then were told to "make sure I've got your callsign before you go
sending a report" That technique to me, is MUCH more important than "you
are blah blah."  I can ignore the grammar issue...  The other however is
annoying, and happens VERY too often.

And how many of us (myself included) actually sent the report correctly
each time? 

(using N0SS since he can take it out on me personally if he so desires!)

KC0CZI QRZ FIELD DAY
N0SS
N0SS DE KC0CZI 2A MO 
KC0CZI DE N0SS 2A MO 


Suffix-only dropping is also pervasive and annoying.  That isn't a
callsign.  What's your FULL callsign?  Surely you guys realize how
annoying it is to have to back up in your logging software and fix the
call.

And what about stations that REFUSE to use phonetics even when asked...
Can't begin to tell you how many times that happened this past weekend.

All in all however - those issues are good for receivers to deal with as
prepping them for real disasters when calling stations will not follow
your requested formatics.

However, I totally realize that this is NOT a contest... The desire to
get and maintain a high-rate is more as a training and exercise in
technique to ensure that operators are efficient handling messages
rapidly (in whatever method works best), though formatted exchanges go a
LONG way to conditioning that listening to only expect certain things...
In a real disaster, there wouldn't be any pre-conditioned formattics
(especially in a tactical environment).  But, again, it's not a contest
-  it's a disaster preparedness exercise.  Again - our primary interest
in ALL of this is to GET THE MESSAGE THROUGH.  For Field Day.. I tend to
make some exceptions, and remember them as training points later.

Of more interest to me... How many of your clubs actually treated your
setup and/or tear down as a disaster response?  I suspect not nearly
enough.

Once again, I find myself essentially in-tune with what Bob, and some
others, have written.

Instead of ridiculing our FD brethren, they need to be encouraged, and shown
HOW to do it.  We all had to start some-time, some-how,  and I wonder how
many of us would like to hear recordings of our first ever QSO's, contest or
not..............?

Sadly, in the collective, we have managed to leave a pathetic legacy of HOW
NOT TO OPERATE for all the world to hear, and emulate.

WHERE do these gentlemen learn the "please copy"?  NETS and LISTS, of
course.  Wonderful examples of how not to operate......

WHERE do these gentlemen learn that you don't even have to know the other
station's call, before calling?  PACKET, of course.
Perhaps the ULTIMATE example of non-operating.

We have met the enemy, and it is us.

Operating a casual 1B this happened to me several times.  This actually
turns the frequency over to me.  I send 1B Georgia and W7ABC comes back with
2A Washington.  Its also slows things down.

I also noted extra comments (such as North Carolina sure beats Georgia).
Several also told me "when last heard" but since a report is not needed I
can't figure out why this is said.

Regarding the phrase "please copy" I hear this now in local traffic
handling.   As an old hand (years ago ) of the National Trafiic System
(local, TCC,  and both RN5 and 4RN) this must be a new technique.  I hope
ARES does not teach this and I am asking the Georgia SM about this.  Its
extra words that aren't needed whether a contest or an emergency test
exercise.

I did note some excellent operators even among the young and the YL's
recruited to bring in contacts.
K1AR's first contacts were at a field day before he was first licensed (in
the July Contest Column in CQ)...bet there are a lot of us out there!

With all due apologies to Jim's very insightful post, it is NOT us.
That "please copy" can probably be traced to less than 50 hams in the
US, operating with greatly exaggerated opinions of themselves.

I remember checking into the 20 Meter county hunters net as I was
leaving Church, and thought I would drive north to hand out a few
relatively rare ones for GA. Apparently, the MC, a K2, had announced
some time
before not to use phonetics, and I was soundly chastised. I replied to
him that our minister, as a general rule, did not allow pickups in the
sanctuary, and that he could "kiss my ass"!

In this case, a virus which has infected 10s of thousands.

Dxpeditions are another cause. When they ask for "last 2", do what
9K2ZZ does. LOG them as such. His mgr. has explicit instructions to
reject any QSL logged with a 2 letter call, and to put such on the
original QSL with a note to that effect!

It's not us, but until we have the guts to openly criticize and inform
a newcomer for such, we share the blame.

1) Smart band map (similar or better then in TRlog)
2) Fully user configurable
3) Possibility to add tests with non standard rules and point and multipler
systems
5) CW and RTTY sending and  receiving
6) Support of all the types and brands of radios
7) Must be able to control antenna switch, linear amp, rotator
8) Build in Digital voice keyer
9) Ability to record audio of the entire contest with time stamps
10) Full support of M/S and M/M (things like passing mult from band to band,
keeping logs on different computer of the network in sync, provision of tx
inhibit on all the other trcvrs when one of them is in TX mode fo M/S etc)
11) On the fly and post contest analyses of band changes, rate by hours,
calls continental distribution ets (see post utility in TRlog)
12) Super check partial and other user database support
13) should be very fast even with several comps in the network and few
thousand QSO in the log
14)Should run across the range of platforms (Win95/98/NT/2000/XP )
15) should be reasonable in hardware requirements (should run on
Pentium90/133 with 16Mg of RAM)
I could go on an on but will better stop here :)

Every contester has a different idea of what the "ideal" should
be.  There is no single contest logger that is best in all
respects - any more than there is a single best antenna or best
rig.

If you're serious about writing a contest logger, then just do
it - and start by including the features and the contests that you
yourself prefer.  It'll take longer than you think, and it may be
even longer before before anyone will buy the software.  When they
do, however, you'll soon get all the feedback you need.  If the
software is free, on the other hand, some potential users may feel
you're not fully commited to the project.

Hallo Paul,

here in Europe we can use the DCF-77 transmitter nr Frankfurt
on 77,5 kHz or MSF in England on 60 kHz to do that.

You will need a software that can decode the time signals
and then set the PC clock. SpecLab by DL4YHF 
(see www.qsl.net/dl4yhf) does is.

However.. I am not sure if you can receive DCF-77 or
MSF in North America.

Until those that feel they are prepared for disaster communications are
ready to admit that they aren't, all of the training in the world will not
have any success, because "they" won't attend?

IMHO, Field Day should be a "social event" with some directed interest

No problem.  All you need is a GPS that outputs NEMA

http://www.kaska.demon.co.uk/tardis.htm and download
Tardis 200, a shareware atomic clock program that works
with Internet sources, or a GPS that outputs NEMA sentences.

I used it during the VHF contest (from a mountaintop w/no internet)
for syncing JT44, and it gave me 0.127 second accuracy!  Not too bad.

I talked with Georgia ARES/NTS personnel and the phrase "please copy" did
not come from them.
They all noticed this too.

The ball is in out court as contesters to get to the clubs and help them
train their operators in good techniques.   Most of the field day operators
are not contesters and welcome advice as they want to improve the club
score.   I told the SEC that even a slow op could add 5 or 10 QSO's per hour
if they followed good procedures.   I was told that many of the young
operators were given a script to follow
in making QSOs.   One YL (she is now a General) at a local club made over
500 SSB QSOs following a script last year.

Field Day is a great opportunity for contesters to make an impact and train
new contesters.  Its a big weekend for many clubs.   You might even learn
something!

For what little I'm sure it'll be worth... Even though my operation has 
been 95% CW, I began operating in sectional phone nets in about 1959, 
though it wasn't until probably 1965 or so that I began hearing "Please 
copy" used by some operators. By the late '60s it was quite a bit more 
prominent (at least in the Midwest). I believe it's still seen regularly on 
a number of phone nets... usually local or sectional, rather than regional 
or larger.

Granted, it's not good operating procedure, but it IS something many ops 
have grown up with and will continue to do so until those who use it stop 
doing so.

I think, for many people, the "please copy" acts as an instinctive "bridge"
between the callsign and the report in a situation where a signal report is not
required. We are used to giving a "59" before the required exchange, and when we
can't start the exchange with the standard "59", we want to replace it with
something else.

You rarely hear "please copy" in ARRL DX or CQ WPX etc., where the report starts
with a signal report...

I catch myself somethimes wanting to say it as well, just to smooth out the
verbage in the report...I'm no linguist, but it seems to flow better...Whether
it be "please copy" or "your" or "good morning, your" or whatever...It also
seems a little more friendly...It's been going on for years...I remember my
first Field Day in 1975, one of the old timers said it in every QSO...That still
sticks in my head and is the reason the phrase still comes to my mind when
giving a SSB report in Field Day...Must have been more prevalent back then ?? I
don't know...I stuck to CW this year.......

73, and hope to see you in the RAC Canada Day Contest July 1st 0000z-2359z
(where a signal report IS required, so I'll be testing out my theory!!)

Message-ID: <B4965255B95AD41185EE00D0B74791F2043C120F@axatl03.cos.agilent.com>

I have poked fun at myself for years for using "Please copy" in contests. I 
know I shouldn't, but I can't help myself. I think it goes back to my 
hometraining; I can still hear my mother telling me to say "Please," and "Thank 
you," for practically every social situation.

But really, "Please copy" is so much more friendly, more social, and, more 
importantly, a more effective attention-getting signal than an abrupt 
"Thirty-seven alpha Sacramento Valley." What, no "QSL", no "Roger", not even a 
"Thanks" preceding the exchange? "Please copy" is a very efficient way of 
saying, "Pick up your pencil and turn on the DSP or whatever you have to do; 
here comes my exchange. You ready?"

I have resisted the pressure to become less human and more robotic, especially 
during Field Day when new hams and the public are listening in such greater 
numbers than during any other time. "Please copy" is my little tiny way of 
making the scary a little bit less scary.

After September 11, a lot was written in the press about how people had become, 
at least for the moment, a little bit nicer to each other in the enormity and 
the shock of what had happened, not only in New York, but everywhere else in 
the country. People honked their horns just a little bit less, and said "Hello" 
just a little bit more. In a real real, you know, nationwide emergency, I bet 
you that hearing an occasional "Please copy" is going to give you a slightly 
more reassuring feeling as you pass traffic that is largely depressing and 
terrifying.

You guys sometimes make a mountain out of a molehill!

W6LX said that.

Scott Nichols sagely noted that....
"I think, for many people, the "please copy" acts
as an instinctive "bridge"...." and also noted 
"..It also seems a little more friendly..."

K3FT opined.. What I learned from chatting with
the pros in this world is that even though the
guiding rule is 'A-B-C' (Accuracy, Brevity,
Clarity) when transmitting traffic, the all
important, yet intangible 'human factor' must be
considered.  

The insertion of the 'Please Copy...' prior to
the start of the message (on voice circuits)
helps to impart a small but valuable bit of 'the
personal touch' in the mix.

Another purpose is to give the recieving
operators mind a chance to 'lock in' and be
absolutely ready to copy what follows. Even
though you know that the other guy is ready
because he responsded 'K3FT send your traffic'
and you start transmitting.. a 'Please copy...'
before the 'number xxx...' and the rest of the
preamble simply gives him a 1/4 of  a second to
energize the brain/body to begin actually
writing/typing.  The slight delay allows him to
move from the act of transmiting 'K3FT, Send your
traffic', put down the mic, ready his
pencil/fingers, and be absolutely ready to copy
whatever you send next. 

Regardless of how good you are, there is ALWAYS a
slight delay from the time you stop transmitting
your readiness to receive and  your full
readiness to copy. The 'Please copy' allows the
human factor of a pleasantry to occur while
providing that needed delay so the reciever can
be assured of having all in place to copy.

That is all it really is. What I was taught is we
strive for 'A-B-C' but maintaining a small bit of
'human pleasantry' in the mix is OK.

"Please copy" is probably the littlest, most insignificant of our fish to
fry.  It is hardly more of a vermiform appendix than our own repetitive and
useless "599".  If we decide to beat the newbies up for a transgression on
this level, it will hardly be a wonder if they decide to take their ham
radio minutes elsewhere.

Eu Sprint - Spring 2002 
Rules and All Time Records can be seen at <http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.

Dear OM, 
Here are the results of the first two EU Sprint contests of 2002. 
The winners of the first two sprints of the year are Timo, OH1NOA 
(operating as OH1F), and Dave, G4BUO.

SSB. Timo achieved the fourth highest SSB score ever and the second 
highest score of all time on 20m. During the SSB Sprint 20 was the best 
band and most entrants made great scores on this band. Second place 
went to Peter, YL7A. He beat OH1F on both 40 and 80 but Timo's 102 QSOs 
on 20 made the difference. Third place goes to Ran, UW5Q. Thirteen 
station made more than 150 valid QSOs and this includes some new faces, 
which is a good sign!

CW. Dave, G4BUO, won his second CW Sprint and - for the first time - the 
three highest scores are all from the same country: England. Second place 
goes to Steve, G0CKP, and third belongs to Andy, G4PIQ/P. Conditions were 
not so good as during the SSB leg on the previous weekend. 20m was still 
the best band but QSO numbers were much lower.

2002 Eu Sprint Plaques. Please remember that each country winner will 
receive a colourful certificate but - at the end of the year - the big prizes
will go 
to the three highest combined scores. To qualify you must have entered at least

three of the four European Sprint contests in 2002.

Autumn 2002. Please remember that the next two events will take place in 
October as follows: 
SSB: first Saturday in October - 5 October 2002 - managed by I2UIY 
CW: second Saturday in October - 12 October 2002 - managed by OK2FD 
Rules and All Time Records can be seen at <http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.

Finally, we were very sorry to hear of the passing of Laci, YU7SF. He was a
great supporter of all contests including the Sprints and we will all miss his
callsign in future events.

EU SPRINT 2002
In 1994 the EU Sprint Gang (I2UIY, OK2FD, DL6RAI, and G4BUO) organized  the 
first European Sprint contests. For 2001 there have been some rule changes, 
introducing an awards programme and bringing the Spring Sprints forward  in 
the  calendar.  You can find past scores and other  information  about  the 
sprints  by  visiting  the official EU Sprint web  site  at  this  address: 
<http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.
The BIG news is that now we will award a certificate to the winners in each 
country but this is not all. Three nice plaques will be awarded for the top 
three scores from all four contests combined. Therefore, please red  circle 
the  four EU Sprint saturdays on your calendar, we will be looking for  you 
starting October 5!

EU SPRINT 2002
The  EU Sprint Gang hereby invites you to participate in the two  European 
Sprint Contests held in Autumn 2002.

ENTRANTS: any licensed station may enter the Sprint. European stations  can 
work everybody; stations outside of Europe can work only European stations.
CATEGORIES: Single Operator ONLY. Only ONE signal may be aired at one time.
DATES:
EU SPRINT Autumn:
  * SSB: first Saturday in October - 5 October 2002 - managed by I2UIY
  * CW: second Saturday in October - 12 October 2002 - managed by OK2FD
TIME: from 15:00 UTC until 18:59 UTC.
BANDS: 20, 40 and 80 metres only. 
Pilot frequencies are: SSB: 14.250, 7.050, 3.730. CW: 14.040, 7.025, 3.550
EXCHANGE: all of the following data MUST BE PART OF THE EXCHANGE: 
  a) your callsign, 
  b) the other station's callsign,
  c) your serial number starting from 001 (RST not required),
  d) your name or nickname.
Please  note  that  BOTH stations MUST repeat  BOTH  callsigns  DURING  the 
exchange. 
A valid exchange is: "OK2FD de I2UIY 118 Paolo" while "OK2FD 118 Paolo"  is 
NOT a valid exchange.
SPECIAL  QSY  RULE: if any station initiates a call (by sending  CQ,  QRZ?, 
etc.),  he is permitted to work ONLY one station on the same frequency.  He 
must  thereafter  move  AT LEAST 2 (two) kHz before  he  may  call  another 
station or before he may solicit again (CQ, QRZ?, etc.) other calls.
VALID  CONTACTS:  valid contacts are QSOs correctly logged  and  confirmed. 
Each  operator  may  use ONE and ONLY one name during the  Sprint.  If  the 
exchange is copied incorrectly, that operator will receive zero (0) points. 
In case of miscopied callsigns, both stations will receive zero (0)  points 
for that QSO.
SCORING:  each valid QSO counts one 1 (one) point. The final score  is  the 
total number of QSOs.
AWARDS: Colorful certificates will be issued to the winners of each Sprint, 
and  to the leaders in each country. A special plaque will also be  awarded 
for  the top three scores from all four contests combined. To  be  eligible 
for this award an operator must enter at least three of the Sprints in  the 
year.  Results will be forwarded as soon as possible to Leagues,  magazines 
and bulletins.
LOGS:  a single chronological log is required. Please send us your log  via 
email or on a floppy disk, if you use computer for logging. Use any of  the

Sweepstakes is a contest where the "you're" is kind of an intro to the
serial number, "You're number 123 Bravo", etc. and actually makes sense - if
that really matters.

I don't see the big deal.  The rate is generally slow for one thing and I'd
rather see many of the other non-contester-isms mentioned in these threads
dealt with before we worry about the "you're".  I would agree that a
newcomer should not be "taught" to use the phrase, but trying to rid an old
timer of it is a waste of time.  Besides, what would FD be without some
Lid-isms?

Is this all we have to complain about? ;-)

Gentlemen,

we finished K1Baker QSL printing today, and filling process started
immediately.
Some of you will get lucky and confirm the QSO(s) in F-hafen, and some
others in F-inland, since Hrane will bring small quantity along.

Your QSL requests should be sent to Roman RZ3AA for SSB, and YT1AD for other
modes.

Hi Lou:

Nothing whatsoever.

However, when you are in a real emergency situation, the less unnecessary 
verbiage the better. You want to get the important information passed 
without any extraneous traffic.

Hi,

I guess this whole thread is preaching to the converted. I don't imagine too
many ops who aren't at least casual contesters subscribe, so I'm not sure
what the point of the thread is.

Be that as it may...

So that my message doesn't further preach, here's my suggestion: why don't
we keep a list of contesters willing to hold seminars for clubs about
operating techniques for Field Day.

The ARRL/RAC organizations can distribute through the affiliated club system
a notice of our intent along with an invitation to contact the keeper of
said list for a referral to a volunteer contester in or near their area. If
someone could donate a small bit of server space, we could even
semi-automate the function. Perhaps its something that could go on the, oh,
just for the sake of argument, ARRL servers. This list may need to be broken
down into regions: if so, I volunteer to keep list for Canada.

Perhaps someone could even convince, horror of horrors, QST to print in May
QST a primer on contesting -- oops, sorry, operating -- for Field Day. I'll
be sending an e-mail to that effect to N1BKE shortly.

We know all this stuff, so it doesn't help to rant about it here. It won't
help to put it into NCJ, either. Sorry to break with tradition in trying to
offer a HELPFUL suggestion   ;=)   but I think it's something worthwhile,
particularly if we want to try and siphon off some FD enthusiasm into
contesting.

C'mon guys. The "please copy" issue is a metaphor for the learning curve we 
all have gone through. I can't believe you are having a literal debate over 
it. 

It is prevalent in FD because we are doing what Elmer's should do, teach our 
operating skills and values to the newcomers.  Sometimes it is most effective 
by direct instruction. Sometimes by demonstration and example. Yes, sometimes 
through humor and trial by fire.

I wasn't able to go to FD last weekend, but I got on and made a few hundred 
QSO's, taking the time to politely correct the uneducated, make suggestions 
of technique to the unskilled and having the patience to work someone calling 
endlessly or out of turn. That's why it is not a contest, but an operating 
event.

Get a grip. This is supposed to be fun.

Tom, K5RC

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Computer time syncronization without using
  the internet???
In-Reply-To: <200206261548.g5QFmFKF007548@contesting.com>
Message-ID: <4.3.2.7.0.20020626224526.01d69ed0@pop.pacific.net.hk>

VA7NT needs to accurately set a computer's clock without resorting to
the Internet.

At VR2BG, the radio computer is a dedicated DOS machine, with no
connection to the outside world other than a floppy drive & serial port
connection to another machine with a 10+ year old copy of LapLink.

An equally retro approach to setting the radio computer's clock is used -
a wristwatch.  I set the watch at work from time to time & know it's well
within a second for the next week or so.  When I forget to do so before
the weekend, there is always JJY, BPM & (if the band is open)
WWV/WWVH to fall back on.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] July QST and CQ cover arrive
Message-ID: <7a.28ed8f34.2a4bcc61@aol.com>

Having been out of town on a business trip for over a week, the PO box was 
stuffed with goodies - QST, CQ, fishing magazines, etc.  The latest issue of 
QST was in pristine condition while all I found of CQ was the cover pages 
with several rips and tears.  Those staples through the thin cover material 
just does not stand up to the rigors of today's Postal Service employee 
handling.  Please bring back the days of plastic bags or brown paper 
wrappers!  Although I get my share of ripped and torn magazine covers, this 
is the first time I can remember not getting the whole magazine in some form. 
 

So, for CQ, all I can tell you is what is on the front cover:

Photo of W7HUY on his tower with an inset close-up of him strapped-on and 
waving.

Caption is: "Antenna Special!"

I agree with Jim.  Any time you exchange non-essential
information it would be better to call a spade a spade.
Replace all non-essential information with the words:
"delay delay delay" and your contesting will slowly
improve as you begin to tire of saying "delay delay delay".

Message-ID: <012801c21d97$35b95200$48bb180a@9byjx01>

Quick glance at the logs submitted so far show that less than 2% of 
entrants into the CQ WPX CW contest were "rookies" which 
CQ defines as licensed less than 3 years (S/O category only). 

22 scores out of approx 1,221. Now the deadline for submission 
is July 1st, so that might be somewhat of a factor. 

But the question is "Where are all the rookies?" 
Maybe better yet "Where are all the coaches for possible rookies?" 

Some food for thought and discussion now that Field Day is over. 

Best of health to all, 
Eric K9GY

Subject: [CQ-Contest] WRTC is indeed upon us!  Some thoughts on a contender
Message-ID: <016b01c21da7$30871be0$62f1a118@tampabay.rr.com>

Tnx K1DG for doing some WRTC/Radiosport marketing - as all who follow this
reflector know I took a vow of silence as far as operating event promotion
is considered until it is time for me to promote the FQP next Spring - by
the way did you see how many guys have....ooops, BAD OJ - NO ORANGE!


The WRTC is something indeed special and I am sorry to once again miss
attending it - it is a personal goal to attend one of them some day - I
would kind of like to cheer on my fellow Florida Contest Group members and
the other US teams.  The FCG offers defending co-champ K1TO and N2NL - who
is out to see if youth can overcome the keen minds (and crafty
competitiveness) of the WRTC's sages: two time champs K1TO and N5TJ - not to
mention a cast of other absolutely fantastic teams from around the world.

This past weekend was Field Day here in the states and one of the best parts
of the weekend for me was shaking the hands of K1TO and WC4E who were there
along with several other Florida Contest Group Members helping the local
Emergency Preparedness club who several of us contest guys have teamed up
with over the past few years.

I wished "Dahs" and "Dit" a safe and fun time in Europe...WC4E will be there
as a an adjudicator (that's judge for those in Rio Linda)

When I shook K1TO's, hand I wished him luck and I don't think I have ever
quite felt so motivated to do such - you see Dan is more than a contester,
he is a model ham.

I had just watched him spend most of his weekend Elmering new hams at the
Get On The Air station at our Field Day setup - the GOTA position is
intended to allow hams who do not have HF exposure to see what the
attraction is!  He spent hours mentoring newcomers - and he did it like a
parent teaching his children - not barking at them when they said "please
copy" and "thank you for 59 Colorado you are" - but subtly letting them know
that this was inefficient procedure, why not do this instead...you will make
more contacts!

Today I saw the first fallout of his weekend's investment in the future of
ham radio contesting - a husband and wife team that were mentored by Dan
this past weekend apparently had some real fun at Field Day...they have
since contacted the Florida Contest Group and applied for membership.

This past few years my health has gone downhill but when Dan heard I wanted
to get the multi-op in shape for the Fall '01 contest season his first words
were "HOW CAN I HELP?"  I am NOT alone, Dan has helped many club members
with antenna projects and in so doing forsaken his own station which has
been down for of a year from a major lightning strike.

No matter who wins in Finland I consider Dan to be the world's #1 contester.
I have known him since we were teenagers just getting the contest bug - and
I consider him one of my best friends.  Dan practices what a lot of us
preach - and he delivers....

I encourage hams who have not met Dan before to seek him out in OH - no, not
to get him drunk so he will have a hangover during the WRTC/Radiosport [he
will see you coming!], but to meet the man who I am proud to call my
friend...I have know him for almost 30 years now (ouch) and can tell you I
have been exposed to ham's and ham radio all of my life through my family
and have yet to find a better example of what a contester should be.  K1TO
doesn't just win when he is contesting he puts back into the hobby.

Many of the WRTC competitors I am certain are like Dan in many ways and in
this I am happy to say that yes, I am a contester...not as good as, but
still trying to be like my contesting friends, especially  K1TO.  We are a
vibrant community who often gets slammed but the fact that our scores
increase year after year indicates to me we are doing better at finding ways
to communicate with each other be it through better understanding of antenna
systems or mastering the elusive high end SO2R technique!

WRTC does us all proud - I know that the competitors will engage in the
highest level of competitive operating - including its ethics and morality!
Beside how can I not like a bunch of guys with OJ in their calls?


Good Luck Dan, that

Kid's One Terrific Operator

Go get  'em Samurai Dan!

Jim, K4OJ

....we need to work on that Kid part - anyone got Grecian Formulae? :-)

And a LOOONG series of V's before each CW contest Q should aid in the

Ward, You are absolutely right on.

It does not surprise me that others would rather have a worked station just 
"auto puke" the standard format exchange info.

Being able to Pavlovian keyboard enter a more properly spit out exchange 
info format,
in the exact sequence that it is to be entered into the computer log program,
so that editing or the tab key need never be bothered

Now that keeps it to a real test of communications skills.

This is already being done Jim. The preface is "5NN".

I fail to see why "please copy" is such a big deal. Maybe it is summertime

Message-ID: <NEBBIHDFILKFAICDBOGHCEBJDJAA.jljarvis@adelphia.net>

What an inane debate.  But then, FD always highlights the need
for operator training.

Clearly, when there is time available for social pleasantry,
it's appropriate.  Yet, "Please Copy" has a function.  It denotes 
the start of formal traffic.  By extension, it has been applied 
by some to contest exchanges.  So what?  Other than being slow,
does it matter?  

Clearly, it's more efficient to confirm the other stn's callsign 
instead, e.g.:  "k2bmi, 5a VT".   And the response?  "thanks, w1moo, FD"  
Note, the "thanks" pleasantry is also confirmation of receipt, and therefore 
procedural.  Repeating your callsign allows the other guy to confirm 
he got it right, at the same time as trolling for the next one.

If you want to look at efficient communications, monitor an
air traffic control net for a while.  Like perhaps NY Center,
or approach or departure control at any major metropolitan
airport.  Or be adventurous, and monitor Center, approach,
departure, tower AND ground, all at once.  

With 180 knot aircraft on approach moving at 3 mile separation or less, 
takeoffs and landings at 60 second intervals,  motion on the
ground gated in between--comm's are pretty much formatted, 
cut and dried, all business, with formal readback.  

And yet, in all but the busiest of times there's time for g'day, g'night, 
good flight, thank you sir, and see you later.  In lighter times 
you might even hear "nice day for flying, see you on the way back."  

At all but the largest and fastest of dxpeditions in peak times,
they put contesters to shame.  So what's all the blather about? 
Did anyone EVER see single station peak FD rates over 200/hour?   

Nice day for flying...OR radio.  Contact departure one two one point three, 
G'day.  (note, we don't need OVER...the courtesy is procedural.)

Jim, you forgot to include "when last heard"..

I am over 64, and while I am beginning to suffer some "senior

Nothing whatsoever.

However, when you are in a real emergency situation, the less unnecessary
verbiage the better. You want to get the important information passed
without any extraneous traffic.

...there is no question, especially on SSB, that there is some
"salesmanship" in making QSOs with non-contesters...K4XS's "anyone anywhere"
comes to mind....but....if you are truly running 'em I believe you should
NOT use extraneous verbiage - bottom line it lowers the efficiency of BOTH
the sending and receiving station.  Save the fluff for the QSL message -
instead of "QSL QRZed" a "thanks QSL QRZed" is about all that should be
needed UNLESS as I mentioned before you are in "contest enlightenment mode"
and trolling for newbies on the top end of 10 meters!

It appears that there was some problem with the Cabrillo Robots at the ARRL.
As it turns out, my 160 score was omitted from the Club Competition results.
As it turns out, the problem did not affect the standings but illustrates
one of the benefits to on-line results.

Corrected results:

#5  South East Contest Club        1,284,294  14 entries
#6  Minnesota Wireless Assn       1,096,363  24  + 92,340 = 1,188,703  25

My score was 92,340.  Unless there are other mistakes in the Club
scores, my score matters not to the MWA.......

since the ink is dry but the on-line stuff will be corrected.

Question from a newcomer to this list: 

Semi-experienced ham but newbie contester looking to participate cw/ssb in 
domestic/dx contests w/o picking up bad habits (e.g. "please copy").

Are there any good books, FAQ's, etc. on contest practice & etiquette 
beyond the ARRL Operating Guide and the Sprint Contest internet article?

Well I gotta get in my .02 c         My big bug is
k7qq de w7abc (I know my call) ur 3A 3A 3A WWA WWA WWA.    Gosh doesn't he
think if I'm calling cq at 30 WPM and he gives his call one time I can get
the exchange the 1st time.  ???

My bad habit is on CW to say GM Bob 4a WWA when coming back to N4BP.

I feel let down when he just says TU FD N4BP.

There are some books around, but the best way is to listen and emulate the
technique of those who do it right.

Listen on the air to many of the guys who are commenting about this here.
Find them on the air, work them (if appropriate for the particular contest),
then sit back and listen how it's done.

You won't learn anything by transmitting.

Is that really what you wanted to say? I see the 'please copy' thing as more of 
a style issue than an good operating issue or as N5NJ put it, the 'right' way 
of doing things.

I can certainly see room for a number of styles within the boundaries of the 
best contesting practices. Does saying something like 'please copy' put me into 
a second tier of contesters because of the 0.4 seconds it takes me to say that?

As for the indignant few who can't believe we're discussing this in the first 
place, Mr. Urban's questions prove that there is a need-- maybe it's a 
minority, but it's still a need-- to discuss anything and everything about 
contesting on this forum. As an aside, it has always amused me that there 
always seems to be a undercurrent of resentment every time certain threads get 
started. It seems like such a clich? to say this, but you know what key to hit 
when you see something you don't want to read, don't you?

Fair warning: In the next SS, I will be using my call, W6LX, and very likely I 
will at times slip up and say 'please copy' among various other niceties, 
exclamations, time-wasting utterances, and idiosyncracies. If you'd rather not 
have me waste your precious time and slow down your precious rate, please do 
not work me. I will probably make a total of about 400 contacts, and at 0.4 
seconds per contact, I'll live with the wasted 2 minutes 40 seconds of my life.

Well, with one computer set to local time, another computer on Linux, a
third computer with the wrong date, everyone trying to run CT in windoz, a
triband yagi with defective traps, a generator that required the press of a
button (located behind the panel) in addition to reseting the circuit
breaker to bring it back to life.....

I received an email from a brand spanking new - one week old licensed - ham:

    Really enjoyed my 1st field day and sure appreciated all of the support
    from the Scottsdale club.

    Also was nice to have some time to talk with you and pick your brain on
    some of the technical questions that I'm struggling with, particularly
    antennas.

    Went to FD without any idea what I would be doing. Then, the opportunity
    to observe some real CW work appealed to me. What a treat to have the
    chance to work alongside Chris and Ralph. Was even starting to pick up
    on some of the code by the end. I came home and pulled out my keyer and
    made the connector to the HF rig and am now ready to make my 1st CW
    contact. Well, after a bit more practice...

This is what it's all about!

You probably also say "number" before the contact number, don't you?

"Number" takes about 0.5 seconds at full speed, "please" copy takes
about 1.1 seconds at full speed.

Imagine, 2100 SS phone contacts means 3360 seconds -- almost an
hour of contesting -- just for YOU to say it.  And, your contact draws from
inference how fast he should send his exchange.  He will automatically
move at your rhythm.  This means that he'll slow down to your speed
and send "please copy number" himself.  That means you'll lose 2 hours
in an SS.

This piece talks a lot about how what seems like an insignificant amount of

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Harmonic stubs
Message-ID: <000901c21e4e$6da97660$d5fafea9@paulplay>

A couple of years ago I made 2nd harmonic coaxial shorting stubs for a
DXpedition using a noise bridge and what I think is conventional procedures.

We thought they worked great but when I actually had a chance to test their
performance with a near neighbor, I found they had no effect on the 2nd
harmonic.

Since then I have found a procedure to make effective shorting stubs that do
attenuate the 2nd harmonic (40m, 23 dB, RG8X) and these stubs have been on 2
DXpeditions with good results.

What I am looking for is a multi-multi contest station that presently uses
harmonic shorting stubs that would be willing to try one of my stubs and
compare it's performance to what they are using now.

Please reply to me direct.

Geez, if that's the only mistake I'da made when I started, I
think I'da been doing pretty well! It was probably the first time
a lot of these guys got on HF and they were pretty nervous. 
Especially if people were telling them how dumb they were. I
think we should encourage newbies instead of make fun of them.  I
got off the VE team here in Coos Bay because nobody wants to
learn the code to upgrade anymore.  All they want to do is get a
no-code and quit.  I can't remember the last time I gave a code
test.  Probably when they dumbed the Extra to 5WPM.

EXACTLY!

Here's what our FD gang received from a new contest recruit ...


The opportunity to work next to some of the best operators in our hobby,
and have them take the time to "coach" newcomers as well, was awesome
and always peaks my interest in ham radio. To all of you who put up with
my numerous questions, I am grateful. Having access to all the combined
skill and experience brought to the event by so many, do you blame me?? 

 So not only do we walk away from field day with a great time, but with
better operating skills, old and new friendships. Too bad it's only once
a year!! hi.  

What a setup, great conversation and regardless of where you come from a
common love of the hobby. Thanks for allowing us to share in it all.


Will probably be hearing him joining us in contests in the near future.

All,

Looking to get a radio that is a decent contest rig, but is reasonably

looking to buy a used rig) as this will not be used a tremendous amount.

Any comments from the group would be much appreciated.

Greetings:

This is my first post to the contest reflector in 
13 months...wheretheheckhaveIbeen?

I am in the process of writing the summary article for
QST magazine for the 2002 ARRL DX CW contest.  I am soliciting
your input.  In particular, I would like anecdotal stories
about your operating during the contest, pictures, rate
sheet, etc.  If you think you may have finished in the top 10
in ANY category, I'd particularly like to have your rate 
sheet and station description info for the detailed write-up
that will be posted to the contest section on the ARRL
web site.  If your current station description is accurate
in the N4ZR/PVRC contest station database, let me know.

I am particularly interested in hearing perspective from
casual contesters on their contest experience.  Don't be shy.

Anything you think I ought to know that might be good to
add to the write-up, send it to me!

I know a number of you were sick or taking care of sick
family members that weekend as the flu bug ravaged North
America - if you have an anecdote about that, great.

I may also contact some of you directly by email as well
asking questions.  No guarantee that anything will or will
not be part of the article as editing, of course, is up to
the League for the mag article.  There is much less
constraint on the content for the web site so let's fill
'er up!  

Have a good weekend, everyone.

======================>
I take it you are looking for a portable lug along radio, so........
Don't buy one at all.
Borrow one on those few occasions when you might need one, and give the 
loaner a few bucks to cover his outlay.
It is a win-win for both of you.

This should move us past "pse copy",,

Kenwood TS850.

Easy to find used, cheap, works great for contesting, PC control.

Holds most of the world records in Multi-Multi.

Good receiver with the filters, which are also easy to find used.

Since we're on the subject, I JUST bought a used TS-850SAT.  What filters
do you all recommend for it?

You may get several different opinions, but there is only one correct 
answer - the kit-built Elecraft K2/100! ;-)  At 5 pounds plus a 
switching PS (another 5 or less), it is one of the lightest and smallest 
you can carry. It way outperforms the commercially-built micro-rigs and 
even beats contesting's most lauded "big" rigs. The rx is terrific in 
pileups and beats the 1000MP even at home. They are hard to find used as 
the 100w version just came out at Dayton, but there are some QRP 
versions listed occasionally on the elecraft@qth.net reflector and 
elsewhere. (Be careful buying used kit rigs, though.) The QRP version 
can be upgraded to the /100 model with a reasonably priced "completion 
kit" which is, in fact, the only way K2/100's are built - first the base 
rig, then the amp. If you don't want to build your radio, there are 
excellent builders available for hire. See http://www.elecraft.com.

If the K2/100 is over your budget for a travel radio, just sell your 
current rig and use the K2 at home, too! I have a 930 and an MP and 
prefer the K2 for everything except working through non-contest, 
split-frequency DX pileups.

Elecraft redefines the vendor/customer relationship. Great Website, 
super support group including hundreds of disciples on the reflector, 
sudden response to customer needs, outstanding documentation, 
vendor-encouraged modifications database, ... the works!

I'm not related to anyone at Elecraft but I do know the principals well. 
They are friends and heros. If that disqualifies my comments, see the 
reflector for identical commentary from outside CA.

When things start to sizzle and I go into bare minimum rate I also speed up
my CW speed - this sensing of that time when not only are you loud in a big
footprint area but loud enough to get away with being short and sweet is the
moment I live for - it is like being the first hour at a DXpedition from a
new country and the whole world wants you - you can work them as fast as you
are able to - at this point the ability to know multiple stations calls that
are calling you and tailenders etc is pure unadulterated gravy....this is
the moment I live for each contest!

Am about to go into some cartons here and see if I can find that old article
from Tom Schiller's there - I am sure it was back before we all shortened
our identities....old age setting cannot remember his old call
anymore.....do remember my copy was on yellow paper - a lot of you have
asked about it - should I find it I will try and scan it and
wordprocessorize it (with Tom's permission) for the contest community to
enjoy....funny how being so long ago does not change the basics - gee mebbe
running people does not necessarily take a Gold Card and a winning Lotto
ticket!

Back to lookin'

Do drivers for NA exist so you can user ethernet to connect two or more

Zack, INRAD recommended 2 400 hz filters for cw, so that
is what I used with mine. Wish I had it back! For ssb I just
used the standard 2.7 khz filters. Others may have some
suggestions for ssb. I just felt the selectivity was good enough.
My station is defintly low profile (tribander 40ft and wires) so
others may have different thoughts on the use of ssb filters.

Yeah! For performance per pouind or per cubic foot, the Elecraft
K2 os far ahead of the crowd and it's made in USA. Add the
100W amp to the basic rig and you have a flyaway package
under 10 pounds including switching power supply.

The only downside, far as I know, is that it's menu driven and
not very intuitive. BUT I'm a slow learner and was able to
get my basic, 5 watt K2 to jump through hoops within an hour.

The rig comes as a kit. If you're not inclined or not able to
build it, a lot of folks would do the building for you.

It's worth a look!

==========================>
Alkalinity from the older concrete leaches out into the yard.

You do not notice this at first. It takes a while for the leaching to have 
an adverse affect on the surrounding plants that might need a more acid 
soil condition.

Apply acidifier to the surrounding soil.
Same thing happens down here in the Southern USA to azaleas planted too 
close to concrete foundations of houses.

The list is free to be surprised at this being one of my few sincere posts 
with a content of substance.
File away if you wish to preserve same.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Heil boom mic set problem
Message-ID: <006301c2091e$441fd180$70ab45cf@default>

I have a problem with the Pro micro boom mic set.  The button on the mic
swivel went bad and the mic would not stay in place.  Bob Heil sent me a new
button but upon trying to put it on I found the problem was the tube inside
the button.  It had broken off from the button.  I don't see a way to get
inside headset to fix this as Heil recommended.  I showed the pro micro to
two others who have either Heil Pro or pro micros.  We tried removing the
cushion but the headset is one piece and the cushion appears to be glued on.
We tried to get into the headset from the back where the button is attached
but all of us were afraid to damage the Pro Micro.

Does anyone have experience on repairing either the Pro or Pro micro.
Otherwise the other two recommended sending it all back to Heil.

I'm by far no expert on the history of all this, but my impression is that
the assumption is made that contesters are prone to exaggerate their logs.
In the past with paper logs this was very difficult to find.  When it is
found, the QSO itself and a penalty is extracted.  Yet, situations such as
yours definitely exist where the victim/perp are reversed and the penalties
are not.

Now that most (all for CQ?) logs are submitted electronically, I think it's
high time to eliminate the penalty points entirely.  Just remove the QSO
(and mult if it be one) and recompute the score.  Guys in your situation
will still bemoan why the other guy didn't log you, but at least all you're
losing is the QSO and not having a penalty lumped on.  Anyone trying to
benefit by padding the log will of course have their work totally removed.
Seems fair to me.

I think the time for the penalty points, appropriate when finding fraud was
so difficult when paper logs were the norm, to be totally removed.  Let the
score reduction be computed solely on the basis of the submitted log, less
QSOs in error.

One man's opinion, of course :-)

73,

Gary W2CS

There are two ways to solve the 0 point QSO problem:
1. Automatically give zone and country credit for all 0 pt QSOs. For 
example, USA gets credit for USA and zones 3,4 and 5; UA0 gets credit 
for UA9/0 and zones 17, 18, and 19; DL gets credit for DL and zone 14; 
etc.
2. If a N-I-L pattern appears, for example, W3multi was in the log of 15 
other W ops, but 12 of those QSOs aren't in W3multi's log, he should 
be DQed.

If you have a problem with a Heil product, I'd suggest calling Heil to
discuss it. While their obviously in business to make money, they are very
customer oriented. About a year ago the mike on my "legacy" headset became
intermittent. My guess was that it was in the cord. Dave returned my call,
told me that was a fairly common problem and the fix was quite easy. His
prediction was correct and fix was easy to complete.

Has anyone tried the Heil FS-2 footswitch in contesting? It looks like
it might be easier to key than many of the other footswitches that I
have seen but I'm wondering what other contesters think. All comments
would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone on this list have a trashed Heil Proset headset available
that they would consider selling me? I'm looking for a working mic/boom
from a Proset to put onto another (non-Heil) set of headphones but I
don't feel like spending $130 plus shipping to buy a new headset just
for the mic/boom. If someone reading this has a trashed Proset that has
a working mic/boom and cord please e-mail me if you'de consider parting
with it. Thanks!

Hello all...I have asked this before and I want to see if there have been
some additions and improvements...I travel
the world rather often and far and wide...I have used Compuserve for the
past 9 years and until about 3 years ago they had a great presence in the
world...now they are shrinking in world wide POPs etc and not available in
a lot of countries I travel to...one member of this list had reccommended
GRIC as a world provider...I had to purchase GRIC services thru a company
called VPM and they were horrible...no custome support etc...but GRIC did
have the most worldwide access points....anybody that travels have any
other luck with ATT Worldnet or any other ISP...Compuserve since it was
bought by AOL has begun shrinking its service...I have hung onto Compuserve
since its great for e-mailing ....but its getting time to change...looking
for ideas....thanks de Rick nq4i

Please let me know if you lost any QSOs from K8CC.  For the past several 
years I've reminded our operators before the contest that if they send 
someone an exchange, they are to log it, period.  Hurting the points per 
QSO ratio is not an issue.

I don't know how CQ checks logs, but with ARRL 160 and ARRL 10 (which K9TM 
and I check) the penalties are equivalent QSOs - i.e., if you have a five 
point NIL in ARRL 160, you lose that QSO plus five QSO points.  OTOH, in 
some contests like ARRL DX and SS all QSO points are the same, but the 
strategy is the same.

Before this spirals out of control any further, please note that WW3S
indicated that he made an error in his math while looking at his report.

There were no USA multi-multi's who did not log him nor caused him to lose
any points or multipliers.

I use "AT&T Global Network" to access my company through a virtual private 
network.  In countries that AT&T serves, there are typically dozens or even 
hundreds of local dial-in numbers; sometimes an 800-equivalent number. There 
are hundreds of numbers in the US plus an 800 number. My company must pay extra 
when I use the 800 and equivalent numbers. The dialer includes a self-updating 
list of numbers for each country and US state; i.e., it is always close to 
up-to-date. Unfortunatley, the numbers are listed alphabetically by city, so 
the larger the country or state, the more geography you must know or learn in 
order to find the best number quickly. Hotel desks are very helpful with this. 
The service works well, with speeds varying from about 24000 to 54000 in the 
venues I have tried (mainly
US and Europe). N.B. I use an IBM ThinkPad T20 with a rather good built-in 
modem.  In some Caribbean islands AT&T is not represented and the best I can do 
is call Florida. I don't know if this is the same AT&T service that is 
available to individuals.

Actually they already count as you suggest. That is why the original
poster worked the multi to begin with, to get USA and the zone on a
particular band. Example, at NY4A, we need one "K" station and zones
3,4,5 on each band for mults, even though they don't count as Q
points.

There is no loss to logging 0 point qso's. I'm really quite mystified
that anyone would drop them who is using any of the computer loggers.

In order to get a same country exchange to go out at all so that the
posting station would hear an exchange, the easiest way for the multi
to do that is type in the call and hit enter. All done. Deleting the Q
from the log takes additional work. Logging the Q is BY FAR the
easiest, fastest thing for the multi to do. "W1WXYZ <ENTER> 5
<ENTER>".  Everything else takes more time.

I suspect that someone may have done something like go through the
multi log afterward and deleted everything that had zero qso points
and wasn't a mult, not quite realizing what was happening.

Except that does zilch one way or another for the score. Pts/Q is just
an analysis tool. In something like the WPX may indicate someone spent
too much time with beams aimed at USA gathering 1 pointers, instead of
a slower (but higher scoring) progress working European stations.

But it has no official status in any contest that I know of. Anyone
who would suggest such a strategy (deleting zero pointers) clearly
does not understand contest scoring rules.

This already looks unfair (comparing, say, the free mults a DL gets versus
the ones a US station gets) but multiply it by all the bands involved and it
get much worse.

A see a huge potential for mischief here...  Perhaps a note should be sent
to the "W3multi" alerting him of the trouble, but nothing more.

QUACK's
Good thinking today with computer logging , however when we were papering
logging I'm sure that many guys didn't put in a W7 into their log when they
already had a W6 zone 3 and a couple of VE7's,  TOO much effort to write
them down and also dupe.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Heil FS-2 Footswitch
Message-ID: <20020603.002007.-1392873.1.n6ki@juno.com>

Nat, 

        I guess you missed the previous thread on footswitches
when someone else inquired an alternative to the Heil FS-2

"
        I just replaced a very comfortable, durable and ergonomically
comfortable
footswith that lasted me over 10+  years of contesting.
        After considering many switches including the Heil FS-2,
here's one you should consider and why I chose it.
 
Linemaster  Model Gem-V2
www.linemaster.com
 
860 974-1000
 
Circular - Easy to hit from all angles
 
Perfect touch - you can lightly rest your foot on edge of it
                           and not false trigger but then a light
additional amount of additional pressure
                           keys it and no "cramped" or "tired" foot as
the hours wane on
 
Great Weight and Non Skid corrugated base  - Will not move around too
easily
so no worry about it not staying in position.
 
Nice appearance with chrome ringed edge and easy hit circular top target
area.
 
I expect it will easily last 10+ years for heavy contest use.
 
You can purchase with or without cable. I found the supplied cable listed
on teh web
page to be too heavy and cumbersome so I installed my own thinner and
very flexible
cable and saved another $6 on the price.
 
The Gem-V2 will cost you just under $30 including shipping/handling.
 
Note: Since they normally have a $100 minimum, I requested my switch
as a sample for 60 day evaluation and had it mailed to me at my work
address.
That way you avoid the $100 minimum 
 
You may also want to check with your contest buddies or club members and 
order enough to meet the $100 minimum order. 
 
I have no pecuniary interest in Linemaster  Co. Products"
 
73, Dennis N6KI

Staples has the Envision Model EN-710e 17" Monitor
on sale, through June 15, for $149.98, less a $70
mail-in rebate, for a final price of $79.98 plus
tax. You can get it at your local Staples store,
or at Staples.com with free shipping.

I've had one of these for about six months now,
and it is one of the cleanest monitors that I've
seen. On one or two occasions, I've detected a
birdie from it, but it was a weak narrowband
sinusoid, and didn't create any problem. I just
bought another one.

     I know several big contesters who have "borrowed" the callsigns
of friends for use in the WPX contests.  They operate single-op at their 
own station, but they just use someone else's (more desirable) callsign 
(with the other party's permission, of course.)  

     I wonder how other contesters feel about this practice?

I read the WPX rules the same way, however one of our club members ran into
Steve Boll, N5BJQ, at Dayton, and posted this comment on the club
reflector:

************************************************************************
I hooked up with N8BJQ at Dayton and asked about the team scoring for WPX.
He sez if the station owner is a member, then the multi op score can count
for the club.  Doesn't matter how many ops are members.  FYI.
************************************************************************

If this is uncertain, we should ask Steve for a clarification.

I do not recall it being the effort of logging them nor 
was it the trouble of duping them - afterall ten contacts 
with a ZERO point station counts the same as one contact.

The problem was it made it very hard to figure out 
your average points per QSO.

The first time I showed up at a CQ WW M/M I was told not to 
log more than a few W stations.

Now in the age of computer logging I log everything - I log W/VE stations
even in the ARRL DX contests.

There have been several notes recently about the Dayton cw pileup results on 
the  to the Kansas City DX Club web page.  If you look elsewhere on their 
page you will find the sound files for the 1998 and 1999 pileup tests along 
with the answer sheets.  I ran the files and  confirmed what I had know for 
some time, I suck as a potential world class cw op.  There are some features 
of the sound files that play into my weaknesses.  The selective filters in my 
head will sync on a certain tone frequency. Once I have copied the call at 
that tone I try to mentally lock onto another caller at another tone, doesnt 
work, the original preferred tone distracts me.  If the sound file came 
complete with a rit I would do much better.  On the first listen I could not 
copy more than 38 callsigns from either file.  The list of scores for these 
years is also available on the web site and its a lot of fun to compare and 
find out just how bad or good you really are.  In my case it was good to 
dissolve the illusion.  

The potential fun is limited by the fact that the only files listed are those 
from 98 and 99.  Maybe the KCDXC can locate the sound files from previous 
years and provide us with some additional fun.  If you have never been to 
Dayton or have never participated in the pileup test, this may tell you to 
either avoid the embarrassment, practice more, or to make a reservation now 
for next year.  Log onto the KCDXC web site and have a run at it, beats 
sitting around waiting for the next contest.

Message-ID: <OFA85F541A.96FAF405-ON85256BCE.005889EA@cam.abtassoc.com>

At Saturday's meeting of the Yankee Clipper Contest Club, Dan N1ND made a
lively and informative presentation on developments at the ARRL Contest
Branch.  Many of these have to do with contest coverage and are already
familiar to readers of CQ-Contest.

One change that was new to me is a shorter deadline for submitting logs for
ARRL contests --- instead of 30 days after the contest, it would be 15 days
after the contest.  (As I recall, Dan said that this would apply to the
2002 November Sweepstakes and later contests.  From later information,
however, it is not clear to me whether the change has been adopted or is
merely under consideration.)  Members of the audience had a number of
comments, bringing out pros and cons.  The discussion revealed the need for
flexibility (e.g., someone may enter the ARRL DX Contest as a DXpedition
during the course of a longer trip and not be able to send in the log
within the 15 days), and Dan indicated that he could handle such special
situations.

I'm curious to know what the broader contesting community sees as the
practical implications of such a change.

I feel there is no question there are better calls to be used in this
contest...if you have a rarer prefix, especially now that W can work W, you
might get waited upon (run em) whereas if you are the third or 10th K4 that
someone has worked spin the know takes over!

It is precisely for this reason that we used WC4E in our Multi-Multi effort
in CW WPX from W1CW/W1YL/K4OJ station....

Jeff (WC4E) has a callsign which is almost synonymous with the WPX
contest...I know when I had pileups calling me there were many guys seeing
new prefix on their monitors and were willing to wait!

Contesting is a competitive sport...if you have found a better shaped sail
in sail boating you go with it...or a better tire in auto racing you go with
that.....

Do I have a problem with a fellow ham loaning his "unique prefix" callsign
to another ham in his quest for greater contest success...not in the least -
what are friends for?

We could have been K4NNN or K4FCG or any of the other calls licensed at
W1CW/W1YL/K4OJ in WPX CW but there is absolutely no question in my mind that
by having Jeff's call we did better - his being there to operate was a big
help, too - nice job on 15, Jeff!

Seems like a really nice "hammy" thing to do - at least to me...provided of
course it is a free choice - I would not condone anyone holding a gun to
someone's head in order to use their call during a contest...even if it were
a hired gun!

This is a fraternity, right - a good place to do fraternal kinda stuff, eh?

Jim,  K4OJ

Needing to calculate (or wanting to maximize) points-per-QSO is obviously
unnecessary today.

I don't need to tell most of you that the problem back in the good ol' days
was that in order to report the score immediately after the contest, one
needed to guesstimate the points-per-QSO.  I recall hearing, "Using last
year's...",  oh so many times on 3830.  So any deviation from the norm (IOW,
too many zero-pointers) was perceived as a hidden, after-3830,
score-reducer.  And since relatively few (compared to today) logs were
checked, it was of no consequence - although it should have been.

Computer logging has been the norm for well over ten years.  Points-per-QSO
is calculated on the fly.  No need to guess or maximize.  Old habits die
hard I suppose.

I like the Heil footswitch.  And on the well-beaten-down subject of
headphones, as I have stated before, the ONLY headphone I will ever use
again is the FOSTEX T-20.  Cost about $80.  I wear them without any
discomfort for 48 hours straight.  Simply epoxy a Heil boom mike with HC-4
element (naturally) to the side.

Following my lead, the FOSTEX used one time or another by world class
operators like W6YA, CT1BOH, and OH2BH.

Now that I have revealed Contesting Secret No. 2, (1) the competition just
got a little tougher, and/or (2) many more of you will be operating,
comfortably, for many more hours, and we will all enjoy your presence, and
obvious skills.

Hoping to see many of you in Finland.

Thats how I did it,  I had the permission of the owner of WR7HE to use his
call for the WPX   ssb/cw and did so.  I'm responsiable for answering the

Yeah, and its probably not too different than going on a DXpedition for a
contest, and "borrowing" not only their call, but also their station.  And
if it adds to your score, interest in the contest, and is an all-in-all
stimulus for activity, and FUN, so what?  Isn't that what contesting is
supposed to be all about?

The point is:  ANYONE can do it.  Just like SO2R.  If you don't wish to play
the game, your choice.  But don't condemn others from trying to find an
advantage.

It's just one more element of why it's a "competition".  Duh.........

K4VX has done this for years. His wife is NS0Z and they usually use her call
in WPX from his station, which most of the time is manned by guest ops. As
long as permission has been given, I don't see a problem with it, even
though in this particular case it makes my own call sign less desirable!

Hear, hear!!!

I agree.

This was my first Dayton convention.

I would have loved to have particpated/competed had I realized that the
hospitality suite I was in (down the hall from the banquet room by the
elevators) was not THE hospitality suite where the real activities were
going on (is that where the door prizes were handed out, too?).

Oh, well...next year....

==========================>
A hot glue gun will work as an adhesive quite nicely, as well.

A hot glue gun will also serve well to seal the end of plugs where it might 
be a concern for connections being strained by an inadvertent pull or tug 
on the wire(s).

Another tip is to use W2IHY audio setting # 8,723 while wearing loose boxer 
shorts for ragchews and tight briefs for pileup busting.

I think what Dan is seeing is that most e-mail logs arrive within a day or
two of the end of a contest.  IF
all contest entries were e-mail logs then there would be no problem.
However, since ARRL must accept hand logs (as do most contests) this will
only work if logs are accepted with postmarks of the date 15 days out.
Same for diskettes received.

For Dx contests I am sure ARRL receives logs up to 3 or 4 months after the
contest as overseas mail (even some airmail) takes this long.

Its not a perfect world and there are reasons why even 30 days is too short
(PC disk problems, logging program problems, business trips etc)    The
question is whether Dan will accept exceptions.
Lets hope he will.

Considering that there's a ton of people that still refuse to give you
a dupe contact and send QSO B4 instead, when QSO B4 is clearly a loser
for BOTH stations, more so for the one *sending* QSO B4, I'd guess
that only once every twenty years does the average ham set down and
read the rules for any possible improvements to modus operandi.

Among those who work the boards for corporate tech support, there is
this snippet often heard when the mic's are cut off.

RTFM

It's amazing what even college educated engineers will fail to read
and comprehend. Stuff of legends.

I find that if I submit a log 29 days after the contest, it is probably 
because I have forgotten about it since about day 3.

It would be nice to have some automated service for which one could sign up, 
that would look at a sample of early arriving logs, and if it detects your 
call as having been on the air but shows no log received from you, would send 
out an e-mail message asking/reminding you to send in your log. This might 
happen 10-15 days after the contest.

Something like this has been done for the sprints, I suspect with some human 
intervention.

I don't think one should expect to receive an exception.
Exception means rare, and is subject to discretion, which
could change in the future.  

Furthermore, there are legitimate reasons for longer periods
to submit a log.  For example, the month of November is
especially busy - an op has just finished a grueling 48 hours
in the CQWW fone contest at the end of October, and now
hits: SSCW, SSFone, CQWW CW, and for stateside guys, Thanksgiving
holiday with attendent family pressures.  Keeping in mind the
Amateur's Code from the ARRL handbooks, ham radio is a hobby -
and is secondary to one's primary obligations to family, job,
etc. Thus, it may be difficult to find time to submit the log,
especially if one is trying to think up witty comments for
the soapbox writeup.

What compelling reason is served by reducing the time frame
for log submission?

OK, so they're going to cut the deadline in half, from 30 days to 15 days.

Does this mean the RESULTS will be computed and printed twice as fast?  I doubt
it.

Well Kenneth, back when I was first licensed (Federal Radio Com., not FCC), 
the callsign was firmly associated with the radio equipment and 
location.  I guess by popular demand in the amateur service anyway, the 
callsign  association transitioned to the operator.  Now, the callsign has 
become a commodity that can be used by any qualified operator with the 
owners permission.  This progression can be considered a form of 
progress.   73   Jim  w3cp

I'm sure all the anti-log-sanitizing nazis will be happy, but the
programmers might not be. Now they have but a few days to fix any
Cabrillo-generation bugs that might not be discovered until late. (I know, I
know, they are ALL supermen and there are never any bugs.)

Also, this would put the deadline for several large contests right on top of
other large contests (ARRL DX phone occurs 2 wks after ARRL DX CW; SS phone
is two wks after SS CW).  Currently, I don't have to worry about submitting
any of the big-four Fall contest logs until after CQWW CW is over.

I'm not against change, but it should have a purpose...   Is this to speed
up the publication of the results on the web or in QST?  (Personally, I can
wait the extra 15 days...) Or is it to cut down on that nasty evil of log
sanitizing?  (Which IMO is not as pervasive as some seem to believe.)  Or
will it simply serve to make slightly more acute one of contesting's
existing burdens?  If Dan is going to entertain "special situations" (and I
don't envy him this), why not make the deadline one week (or less)?  Then
when your only Internet-enabled PC crashes, or your ISP goes down, you, too,
can cry "foul!"

Mike N2MG
P.S. I do not perform any post-contest log sanitizing nor do I often take
more than a few days to submit my log.

Ron --

In the Cabrillo summary sheet spec www.kkn.net/~trey/cabrillo/ CheckLog is
indicated as one of the categories although the official rules do not
mention anything about that as a category.

Never tried that myself although I have had the opportunity with many meager
scores!

I tried this, and while the hot glue was a bit uncomfortable for the first hour

I've operated a number of contests from various Caribbean locations.  I
usually center the contest around a vacation so it may be a week or two
before I arrive back home.  Once home there's usually a lot of catching up
to do with numerous home chores and work projects.  I don't travel with
email so I need a lot of time to submit my logs.  Those doing paper logs
certainly benefit by having this amount of time.  Even if you computer log,
your computer may break down and it may take a while to get the data
straightened out.  I like the four week log submission period, especially
with work and family obligations.

Because, as someone else commented, November is loaded with contests, and 
there are a few other things going on.  More to the point, what possible 
anti-cheating benefit is derived from cutting the deadline from 30 to 15 
days?  How can that change affect the incidence of log-fudging in any 
meaningful way?  Inquiring minds want to know!

I think there is too much time at present between the event and the results.
Reducing the time frame for log submission could contribute directly to
shortening this time.  I think it's a good idea.

The reason I rarely do that is because preparing the log is a tedious and
time consuming process which is about the last thing I would want to do
right after opeating a (long) contest.  I might do it after a Sprint, but
getting a big log with lots of QSOs ready is another matter.  Making a big
log presentable takes time and clarity.

If you are suggesting not cleaning up the log, that is a different topic.

Doug,
I dunno about the ears but I have found that being bald helps keep glue off
one's hair, usually.  The other problem I found was that after a phone
contest it was difficult to eat with the mike glued to one's lips.  I
learned eventually to leave a hole into which I could insert a straw.  I
also got some strange looks when I went to work on a Monday altho on Wall
Street nobody says much.  They probably though I was just a new cold caller.

The other problem is that your head can get addicted to hot glue. After a
while your head gets heavy which leads to neck aches...or permanently bowed
heads...or cw only ops.

Remember, FD is coming, even tho it isn't a contest..
.
73,
Dennis K2SX

Lots of comments on this, but most are using tunnel vision.

IMHO there is more to consider than a single op with a 1000 QSO
computerized log.  

Why not send your comments to Dan and let him weigh your inputs

Sometimes a simple web search with GOOGLE  with the call sign will reveal
this kind of info .. You might be supprised at how many hits occur if you do
one on your own call.

       Hi

 For the last few months we have been trying to get the Heil Pro Headset to
work well with the Yaesu FT-1000MP MK-V, but so far it has resulted in thin
audio
that sounds 2 s points weaker than our MD-200 desk mic. But it is very nice
to use a headset whilst contesting. We have tried both the HC4 and HC5
inserts but have had no luck. We have used the same headset with a contest
club on an FT-1000MP and had OK results. Any help will be appreciated.

KB3MM asked me:

> The log is the log.  What's to clean up ?

Here are a few examples:

Let's say I switched bands on the radio but forgot to switch bands on the
program.  I think I owe it to everyone to go through and do all the ensuing
damage control.

Let's say I misspelled a guy's name - at the moment the rules don't say I
can't go in and correct it later.

Let's say I put in a comment "This guy's a jerk; put him on the jerk list" -
I would want to double-check to make sure that was out prior to submitting
the log (that comment would be for "internal use only," hi).

Sounds like you really want to talk about the topic of massaging or
sanitizing which is beyond the scope of my first comment.  There are plenty
of reasons an op would want to make his log presentable before pressing
"send" which in many people's opinion fall short of "massaging" or
"sanitizing" from a practical standpoint.  Nobody's perfect.

In Dayton, I had the chance to see a demo and talk with the inventor of the 
device he calls "The Time Machine."  Simply put, this inexpensive unit 
allows you to receive ALL of an 80-khz slice of any HF band, and record 6 
hours (per tape) of the whole band segment on a VHS stereo VCR.  Then you 
can go back, at your leisure, and play back any time slice, tuning across 
with your receiver to revisit any station, anywhere within that frequency 
band.

The possibilities strike me as endless -- imagine being able to record the 
first 6 hours on 14000-14080, for example, and play it back later to find 
out why you did better or worse than the competition.  See how W3LPL or 
KC1XX were doing, what they were working and when, while you were 
struggling, or soaring, on the same band.  Or you could put one at a 
station on another continent, and hear later how the whole contest sounded 
from over there.

Check out http://www.expandedspectrumsystems.com/prod2.html for the full 
story.  I have no financial interest -- just think the CQ-Contest audience 
should hear about this.

and said federal law says we have to give u these permits, here you are, all
fees waived except $55!

I will share the QTH information for 25 thousand dollars :-)     He'd KILL

I used to do this with a Betamax recorder, using a Drake R4A
receiver as the front end.  The sensitivity wasn't great, because
the RF gain was cranked back low, and the bandwidth was only
~6 -10 KHz with varying attenuation, but it was limited primarily
by the R4A first IF crystal filter rather than the VCR.  Had to fudge
the "BFO" l.o. way out of alignment to put the filter into proper
perspective.  I "FM-ed" the output of my T4X with the carrier
gain cut all the way to zero into a dummy load and listened on
the receiver to play the signals back.  You could hear a lot of CW
signals tuning around in that bandwidth, and it made for great
post-contest fun and games.

This one might be legitimate, but why wait till afterward??  I do it when
it's still fresh in my head (after a break, or between the next band
change).

..... Or just look up the correct spelling on QRZ.com???  Log checking
software is pretty advanced.  I might be wrong, but aren't some mistakes

In my experience, the cabrillo log checking robots would not compute this in
a data field and they would send you a "danger Will Robinson" reply
immediately.  You can then go and edit that line and resubmit.  Gab/notes
don't go into the cabrillo log anyway they?

When the contest time is up, it's up.  I press save and send it off.

Duct tape works well.

I'm not a frequent SSB contest participant.  Also, a few years ago, I threw
out a couple of my old boom mic/headsets (the headphones were shot).  For
one SSB contest I did get into a year or two ago, I took my Ten-Tec desk mic
and some duct tape and fashioned a loop to hang the mic stand with the base
against my chest and the mic near my mouth.  Worked great!  No tape to rip
off my scalp after the contest and lose hair--I'm doing that naturally and
medically.

Not for me. I fix calls like G444XYZ (sticky key probably) and ##DF2ABC 
(clearly a typo). Obvious stuff I got wrong, and 95% of the time I KNOW it's 
wrong ahead of time, but didn;t have the time or inclination to fix it 
during the test (I haven't slept for 30 hours, I'm running at 100+, and I 
type G444444444444444444ABC. I make a mental note to fix it when times get 
slow, and maybe forget).

Also damn time errors. Writelog, god bless its heart, did a timesetback 
(thats's a verb folks) during WPX SSB due to daylight savings time in 
England. I manually editing over 1000 times (and got a few wrong when I 
rechecked).

That said, I approve of faster log submittal times.

I don't think log submission is the gating item in the log checking or
results generation process!  If you are going to allow exceptions, why
bother to shorten the deadline.

I would attack the problem a different way.  Give us an incentive to submit
more quickly!

I keep a paper notepad next to my operating position to keep track of things 
like this to go back and fix later.

Better to do it later in calm moment than in the heat of battle...

I'd rather go back and fix it than depend on the kindness of the log 
checkers (no offence meant to any log checkers!-).

I will correct obvious misteaks - if the name entered is "jefg" I know it 
should be "jeff" - UNLESS I make a note of the unusual name in my paper 
notes. This works for me, anyway.

Single ops seem to have no problem with sending logs in right away, but some of
our multi-op efforts resulted in logs that were totally screwed up.  At one
point we had a lot of RF getting into the computers and we had to manually
search the logs for calls like XQY7JO63C.  These were not calls we typed in,
these were gibberish calls that showed up in the log off screen during the
contest, so we didn't know they were there until a post-contest examination.
With the 3 plus 1 penalty in CQ WW we could have easily lost a large percentage
of our actual score.  Sometimes the RF was there and sometimes it wasn't.
Fortunately, the problem seems to have departed, but I still check.  And it
takes time to go through thousands of Qs.

Another time we had a computer go screwy and start doubling contacts, that is,
we would enter KH7R on 20, for example, and then out of nowhere KH7R would also
show up as a QSO on 80.  That one took a while to fix.  Then there was the time
the commercial power took a hit and we came back up OK except after the contest
the times were 7 hours off.  Another time we came up after a power hit with the
wrong date.  Both those took a lot of post-contest time to fix.  (Yes I did buy
a UPS and it got some use in WPX CW!)  One time I had to ask for a log filing
extension just to get things ironed out.

Did you ever log part of the contest on paper and the rest on computer?  Try
sending that one in right after contest.

There are a lot of times I go to sleep shortly after the contest and 12 hours
later I'm headed to the airport only to be out of town for a week or two.  I
guess if I didn't have any other life, I just stayed home, computers never
crashed, the power company got their act together and  I ran only single-op QRP
I would probably want to reduce the log deadline to right after the contest.
Until that time I vote NO.

50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HELSINKI OLYMPIC GAMES

Exactly fifty years before the opening of the WRTC2002 Games in Helsinki this 
year, 
there was a ceremony on the Arctic Circle in the always exotic Lapland (OH9) to 
mark the lighting of the Olympic torch and the start of the relaying of the 
torch on a 
long journey to Helsinki.
The Olympic Stadium was packed full on July 19, 1952 during the opening 
ceremony 
of the XV Olympic Games in Helsinki. This year we are celebrating the 50th 
anniversary of the greatest event in Finnish sports history.

Those participating in the greatest and most spirited event in radio 
contesting, 
WRTC2002, are encouraged to join in the July 19, 2002 festivities at the 
Helsinki 
Olympic Stadium when footage of the original opening ceremony will connect us 
from 1952 to the present day in a true Olympic spirit.

The WRTC2002 symbol featuring the Helsinki Olympic Tower reminds us of the 
unparalleled Spirit of Helsinki, the strength of this small nation.

     To answer the question posed about how hard is to log contacts
on the wrong band given that in 2002 everyone has computer control
of the rigs...

     It is very easy to log contacts on the wrong band in a VHF contest.
There are no "all-band" VHF/UHF contest radios.  A typical VHF contest 
station might look like: http://n5xu.ae.utexas.edu/n5xu/vhf.html
You have one or two rigs for 50, 144, and 432, but you need to use
transverters for 222, 1296, etc.  You may have almost one rig per band, 
and I don't know of any major contest logging software that can handle 
the concept of five or six computer-controlled rigs, with each one
representing one or two or three bands, each possibly reporting the 
IF frequency rather than the RF frequency...

I agree with Randy.  The biggest problem with log checking is getting
everyone to submit a proper log.
When you receive logs in say a non cabrillo format the log must be run
through a converter and with some contests this is no trivial task.  Then
there needs to be an incentive to get the paper log entries to put them on a
computer even if post contest.  Hand checking these logs is also not a
trivial task. Please remember that some still do not have a PC.   A certain
Russian contester would tell me thanks for accepting his hand log.  Well
before this years contest I gave him some reasons to get it on the computer.
Low and behold he sent in the entry on diskette using a PC at his work.
Next year he says he will send it via e-mail.

Perhaps there should be three incentives: (say add points like the ARRL
Field Day)

One for fast log entry (say arrives with the 15 days).
One for being in the proper format.  Most of the logging programs produce a
cabrillo format but you have to have the correct (latest?) version.
The final incentive would be to get it on a computer even if you send a
diskette.

This would sure speed up log checking of the CQ 160 Contests.

One further comment.  When one has put in a big effort in a contest why
don't  we put the same effort in providing a log that fully meets contest
requirements?

Hi all,
I want to remind you of the upcoming All Asian DX Contest which will 
be held 1 week later. This contest must be a great oppotunity for you 
to get many Asian rare entities and many old friends in Asia. 

The contest period will be from 0000 6/15 to 2400 6/16.
When you contact any Asian station, please send RST + your age. 
For example, I send 59941 as I am 41 years old.
If you are a YL station, you can send 00 instead of your real age. 

The detailed rule can be found on the following JARL official page;
http://www.jarl.or.jp/English/4_Library/A-4-3_Contests/AADX.htm
The result of 2001 is rinked to the same page.

The only change from last year is regarding a special plaque.
There are not so many sponsors, however, you have a chance to get a 
special plaque from JARL. The plaques as of today is shown on the 
following page;
http://www.jarl.or.jp/English/4_Library/A-4-3_Contests/2002donor.htm

JARL doesn't provide a junior operators category, however, the
operator's 
age can be found from the exchange. So the Alumni Association of JA7YDX 
sponsors to the "Junior winner of sigle operator". If you are 18 years 
old or younger, please try to get this plaque. If you are a YL station 
and you are 18 years or younger, you had better write your real age on
the 
summary sheet. 

Though I wanted to notify this news to a lot of young operators, I 
don't have any address list of young operators. If there are young 
operators in your neighborhood or in your family, please tell him/her 
this event.

If you are a CT user, try to download a newer version from the following

registered user's site;
http://www.k1ea.com/ctvault/
Ken worked hard to meet the new rule of the All Asian DX Contest last 
year, and the ver 9.61 or later can be completeley fit to AADX.

If you have any question about this contest, please contact the JARL 
contest committee;  contest@jarl.or.jp

1. The connection between computer and rig fails (bad or loose connection) 
and you don't notice right away.

2. Until recently, my K2 did not have a serial port, so it was an issue.

I agree with Randy & several others that the shortening the deadline, at
this time, does not appear to make sense.

Now, I'm all for getting contest results back in hand faster, but I think a
combination two things already in process will take care of this:

First, the posting of the results to the web when completed (which saves 6
to 8 weeks or more waiting for them to be printed in the appropriate
periodical & waiting for it to arrive snail mail).

Second, the significant number of logs being submitted in a standard format
electronically.  CQ already requires that all logs be sent electronically,
and it stands to reason that at some point in the future this will be
mandated for most or all of the major contests.  If the logs are in a
standard format, then it should be a lot faster for the contest committee to
compile data into their master database and then select only those logs that
may need scrutiny (for whatever reason) rather than handle pile after pile
of paper.

But shortening the deadline for two weeks, IMHO, puts an undue burden on
those who need the time to:
1.   go over their logs for mistakes -- as many have pointed out, there are
legitmate reasons for doing so
2.  need to return from travelling, either work or contest related, and then
get the logs in
3.  do not, for whatever reason, keep their contest logs electronically, or
do not use the correct format, or don't have email access, etc., and have to
make arrangements to get their logs converted or entered whatever and then
sent in to the appropriate email.

I'm sure that there will be at least two or three who will reply something
on the lines of "let them get computers, let them get a cheap ISP, and let
them get the right software!"   That's another thread for another time;
let's just say that I think it will be a sad day when a shack computer for
contest logging is mandated for contest operation (key word there is
"mandated")

I don't think log submission is the gating item in the log checking or

I would try putting "checklog" in the subject line and in the soapbox field. I 
sent in 
cabrillo files to the ARRL for the 2001 CW and SSB DX contests. I wanted them 
used only
as checklogs and stated that very clearly in the soapbox fields. They ended up 
in the
contest results as regular entries. I suppose I could have said "I cheated in 
this
contest" in the soapbox fields and no one would have noticed - hi. I thought 
the emails
with my logs might bounce if I put "checklog" in the subject, but now I see 
that's
probably the proper way to get the message through.

This would be a very FUN contest if the JA's participated!

Get on 15 meters on a non-contest weekend and you'll have a JA pileup.  Get
on during a contest weekend and you'll be working 40/hr if you're lucky.

I stopped doing All Asia and JIDX a while ago.  Maybe I'l give out a few

I prefer the Pelican cases.  When my Icom 746 goes portable (like for the
upcoming ARRL Field Day), the radio and paddles travel well-protected in a
Pelican 1600 case.

While this company does have a lot of different cases, their prices are high
(typical retail, no discount).  In addition, for the Pelican cases, they use
the same picture for every size case...

For cheap pelican cases, try www.cases4less.com among other web discounters
(I have no interest in Pelican or this website - it just has cheap cases and
delivers quickly).  This place sells the 1650 without foam for $155 - this
is cheaper than most personal luggage, and much more durable!

The experience of the 6Y2A and HC8N teams has lead us all to use the Pelican
1650 case.  For the durability and price, you can't beat it.  In addition,
these cases are used by divers, film crews etc, that they are very common,
and often go unnoticed.   I first got a ATA spec'd Hardigg case (VERY
expensive, and "military looking"), and it was stopped at every point for
inspection... not so with the Pelican case.

And as always, the foam you use to pack your equipment is THE most critical
item.  I have a lot of info and photos on packing the MP and other equipment
on my DxHoliday website:  http://dxholiday.com/dxresources.htm#equipmenttips

Message-ID: <f2.1cc5619b.2a34b08c@aol.com>

Several of y'all had asked me to keep you informed on my TH-7 boom conversion 
project.
Kirk, K4RO, had modified his tribander with an Omega match per N4KG's design 
and reports not only fine results, but even better, higher contest scores on 
40 meters. With Kirk's encouragement I set off to duplicate this antenna. I 
have a crank-up tower, so could not tune the antenna at it's operating 
height. Tuning it with the tower cranked down proved pointless. The resonant 
frequency changed drastically when extending the tower. I've finally found a 
solution to the problem which not only lets me tune the antenna to 1:1 
anywhere on 40 with the tower extended, it also gives me a 1:1 match on 30 as 
a bonus.
My description of the antenna, with photos, can be found at:

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Etiquette
Message-ID: <005601c20fc6$307dfea0$03010a0a@office1>

My club sponsors a local 2M FM contest every January.  We're starting to
work on the updated rules for the 2003 event.  I'd like to solicit some of
the more experienced ops here on the list for suggestions or advice... if
you're not interested, my apologies for the bandwith & no need to read
further.

A problem we ran into last year was that of, for lack of better terms, rude
or marginally ethical behavior from a few stations; most where newcomers or
non-contesters who didn't know better, and a few of the "damn the rules, win
at all costs" school.  As a result of this, we're thinking of doing two
things:

(a)  Add a rule to the effect that will permit disqualification for improper
behavior
(b)  Add to the rules a one-sheet addendum detailing what we consider "good
amateur practice."

The biggest problems last year were two-fold.

First, we had many situations were someone would call "CQ Contest" for
several minutes, finally get a call, work the "new" one -- and then get his
frequency clobbered by 10-12 stations who had simply been listening and then
jumped once the contact was made.  This scared off some of the "new" ones
who didn't know what was going on or how to handle a pile-up, and ticked off
the station calling CQ because "his" frequency was absconded.  (In the early
hour of the contest -- it runs 4 hours -- you'd hear someone politely asking
to call, and that worked out well.  In the last hour, politeness went out
the window as some got very ruthless about trying to "win").

Second, we had a situation with one club station who thought nothing of
calling "CQ" right on top of anyone -- be it a contact in progress, or
someone else calling CQ, or in one case a scheduled net (that we didn't know
about) trying to conduct themselves.  This station was also reported to be
trying to work stations on 146.52 & below simplex frequencies, which we had
explicitly declared as a "no contest" area for those trying to operate
outside the contest.  One of the ops did not take kindly to "suggestions"
from the contest committee to knock it off, which led to some interesting
situations -- it's actually kind of funny to hear someone tell the guy who
conceived the contest & wrote most of the rules that he didn't know what he
was talking about!  Sad, but funny.

Regardless, we're figuring that an "etiquette" page of "good amateur
practice" adapted for 2M FM Simplex will be a big help for those who simply
didn't know better and were just doing what they heard on the air.  And,
unfortunately, since we didn't have a "DQ" rule in place, we now see that we
need one to curb those that get out of hand.

Any suggestions welcome.  And thanks!

Make sure the case you buy is ATA rated, or the airlines will balk at paying 
damage claims.

Another tip from my roadie travel log - A nice new looking case gets lots 
more scrutiny (from nosy customs guys, security, thieves, etc.) than one that 
looks like it routinely travels. To give your gear that "used/travelled" 
look, get some stickers and plaster all over them. Rip them and make them 
aged looking for more authenticity. Freebie radio station call letter bumper 
stickers and things like that are good, as are old worn looking shipping 
labels (even if they are fake). After a while and some mileage, you won't 
have to worry about it - the stickers will be necessary to hold the case 
together!

Hi everyone:

        Allow me to throw a match onto this dying thread.  I guess I'm in
the minority on this one, and I'm willing to consider that my thinking is
colored by the fact that I have a WPX-friendly callsign that's actually
assigned to me !
        Firstly, I'm not sure that some of the respondents addressed  the
intent of the original question - either that, or I misunderstood it, hi.
The original post referred to the increasingly common practice of a single
op using someone else's callsign, when the licensee is in no way connected
with the operation aside from "lending" the callsign, and the operation is
clearly not at the QTH of the licensee.  From the responses so far:

-  in N6TJ's example, it should be fine to use the DX station's call - it's
his station, licensed to his QTH !

-  in K4OJ's example, WC4E's call was used at a location not his own, but
when I look at the ops listed for that operation, Jeff is listed as one
    of the ops, and if I know Jeff, he was there for much if not all of the
weekend !  This practice has apparently been OK at least for 20 years.  Jeff
was THERE during the operation.

-  in the NS0Z/K4VX example, I'm assuming that if they are married, they
live together, and NS0Z's license shows that address as the QTH !   No
problem with that !

-  the Rex Maner / WR7HE post may be the only example that accurately
reflects the original question...

Do the FCC regulations really allow for this practice ?  I remember 30 years
ago when we had to be very careful about signing portable, even when at a
friend's house across town.  Then, I think about 20 years ago, apparently it
became unnecessary to sign portable, and then any US call could be anywhere
in the USA.  Have we now gotten to the point where the callsign  used in the
contest doesn't have to give ANY information about the location OR the
operator ?  I don't think this practice is acceptable for DXCC, for example,
otherwise I could have gotten 5BWAZ from KC1XX a long time ago while never
leaving my house !

Consider this:  the operator using the call gets an FCC citation
(unintentionally, of course), which is sent to the licensee, not the
operator.  If it were your callsign being used, can you picture yourself
saying "well, uh, gee, I really don't know anything about it - the operation
wasn't at my house, and I was never there.  I let some guy use my call for
the weekend..."

I'm all for trying to get competitive advantages, within the rules.  I just
wonder if this one is something that we should be doing.  And, I mean no
disrespect to my friends and fellow contesters who may have done this in the
past.  I simply offer my thoughts as fodder for possible discussion.

If you're really looking for that advantage in WPX, trade in your primary
call for a 2x1 !  They work just fine the other 50 weekends too !

                                                        Regards
Stu            KC1F

The best solution to the WPX callsign issue is to form a club and get a club
callsign for WPX. It only takes 3 other members and they don't even have to
be hams (XYL and kids in my case - WK6LA, the West LA Contest Club.)

Message-ID: <3D03CDB1.A7A@erols.com>

I know that ARRL HQ, many times, has permitted their call (W1AW) to be 
used at various venues. Dayton, for example, operates W1AW/8 at their 
site.  I know this was done because I visited Dayton and saw W1AW/8 being 
operated. I also know that the ARRL had issued them a letter advising 
that they had permission to do so AND the ARRL quoted an FCC part 97 rule 
section which authorized it.

Our local ham club at Social Security Admin did the same thing. Had their 
club/group callsign used at individuals homes as part of an event but 
again.. they had authorization from the Club trustee to do it.

As far as I can understand it, in the case of an individual allowing his 
call to be used by another when they aren't there.. this would seem to be 
OK assuming the control op (the person in charge of the operation) is 
adhering to the rules for being a control op and operations are within 
the priveledges of the licensee acting as control op.  OF course.. if an 
FCC cite makes it way to the holder of the callsign being used.. htey are 
going to have to answer it since they are the one responsible for the 
callsign. The control operator may have some culpability and may be 
guilty of violating the rules and have some accountability, but the 
callsign holder is the one who getsthe cite and has to answer it.

I've got to get in another .02c worth.  Yes the holder of the call sign is
going to have to answer any citation issued for improper operation.  The
holder of the call has to have enough trust in the borrower that operation
will follow the rules.   The answer to a citation would, in most cases only
have to say that an error was made while in the heat of contesting and steps
have been taken to assure that this type of infraction will not re-occure.

I see it like driving a car: if you're good driver - no matter what car you
drive since you have permission from the owner. Some cars are better, some
worse. But a lot depends on driver. Same with calls.

And if you get to the point of carving out a piece of foam to make the
perfect fit for your equipment inside your transit case, the absolute

Does anyone know if there will be a Hawaii or South Dakota QSO Party in August

Being a good contester, I decided to get TWO.  I asked if I could get two
rebates and they said "as long as I sent them in separately."   After I had
checked out, they THEN told me they have a "one rebate per household" rule
but confidentially advised me to get around it by sending them in from two
different addresses.

Whatever.  Be prepared.

I hope the monitors are as good as you say, Dave.

What Dave didn't say was that they also have the EN-910s on sale with the
rebate - which makes them something like $150 after rebate.  I didn't think
two of them would fit on the desk.

>> from where no log was received over the last three years
>> will receive a special plaque.

>> For 2002 these countries:
>> 1A?, 3A, 4U1I, 9H, C3, CU, GD, GJ, GM/S,
>> HV, JW/B, JX, OJ?, R1F, R1M, SV/A, SV5, SV9, TK, ZA

Hi Contesters,


In the big contests (mainly WW) I often hear (A and B
VFO) that multi and/or single (!) station calling CQ
TEST (with a big signal) and same callsign ?MULT? (S&P
with a weak signal) goes back in same band same time.
(I think there are 2 stations (signals) in same band
same time.) That?s cheating. I have an idea to stop
them (perhaps): if the CQ station gives a nr: 1 after
the zone or nr (59/599 151 or 59/599 0011) and the
BACK station gives a nr: 2 after the zone or nr
(59/599 152 or 59/599 0012) so then the contest
committee can see clearly (?) the cheating: that MULT
and non mult QSOs in pileups (with 2 in 1s) in the
log?

What's Your opinion?

Zoli,

The technique you're suggesting can only show if the station worked was
called or calling. Nothing else. It is legal to make a QSO by any way -
running or S&Ping in random order...
How could you possibly know what was going on from this "Log":

1233   HA5PP   59001R  59001M
1233  HA6PP   59002R  57001M
1234  HA7PP  59003M  59014R
1237  HA8PP  59004R  59006M
1238  HA9PP  59005R  59001M
etc
(I used R and M instead of 1 and 2, for better clarity)

Back in 1970ies and 80ies, with 15 minute time limits for Multi/Single
stations, the cheating was done using "rubber clock": A running station
started the designated time block operation 2-3 minutes earlier, and
remained 2-3 minutes longer, thus making each 15 minute segment actually 20
minutes of operation. So, each hour was splitted in 4 time segments, and
actuall operation lasted not 60 but 80 minutes. Multiply it by 48 hours, and
you get 960 minutes of extra time per station, or 16 hours. Both runner and
multiplier station make total of 32 extra hours during 48 hour contest.
Those "experts" risked only 2-3 minutes of simultaneous operation on two
bands, every 15 minutes, but you will agree that it was very difficult to
catch this, even with carefull monitoring. Those were the days of paper
logs, and it was easy to correct times and squeeze these 2-3 minutes within
15 minute limits. Log cross checking by a committee could not easyly detect
this, due to the fact that 2 or 3 minutes difference in reported times could
be addressed to slightly detuned clocks used. And those "masters" knew it.

Computer logging made some trouble to this technique, since the clocks
became much better tuned now :-)

However, new technique emerged: having another S&P station on a runner's
band. As long as you keep one signal at a time, it is perfectly legal to
collect anything you wish on a runner's band, using second radio (and
amplifier and antenna too...). Many big Multi Multis are using twin setup
per band, and you can see it on their web pages. They do not advertise the
way they keep a single signal at a time, though. And there are big Multis
that don't care about this limit...

I do not mean to discourage you in an attempt to protect honest hams from
cheaters, but the situation we have today is very dissapointing:
QRP winners were using few hundred watts; Low power high scorers were using
high power; High power highscorers were using many many kilowatts; Single op
entrants had assistants, or used packet clusters; Multi op teams had more
than a single signal per limit at a time, or spread their contest QTH across
entire nation, or had a remote receiver placed close to a 3 point continent
and relayed the audio via various means, etc;  Not to mention heavy
pre-contest advertising, web announcements, special awards or QSL cards,
T-shirts and mugs for fivebanders, sixbanders...

Maybe, with this new Time Machine invention, bands can be monitored very
succesfully, and cheaters caught easier. But then, the cheaters usually just
get warned, their score omitted from the listings, and it only turns them to
be more cautious next time :-(

In the big contests (mainly WW) I often hear (A and B
VFO) that multi and/or single (!) station calling CQ
TEST (with a big signal) and same callsign ?MULT? (S&P
with a weak signal) goes back in same band same time.
(I think there are 2 stations (signals) in same band
same time.) That?s cheating. I have an idea to stop
them (perhaps): if the CQ station gives a nr: 1 after
the zone or nr (59/599 151 or 59/599 0011) and the
BACK station gives a nr: 2 after the zone or nr
(59/599 152 or 59/599 0012) so then the contest
committee can see clearly (?) the cheating: that MULT
and non mult QSOs in pileups (with 2 in 1s) in the
log?

What's Your opinion?

Hello Zoli,
  Many of the big USA M/M stations have two stations
for each band.  They usually have a big stack for the
run station, and a smaller monobander on a seperate
tower for the multiplier station.  That explains the
signal difference.  Most of these stations, however,
run an interlock which prevents two signals being
transmitted on the same band.  I know for sure W3LPL
has such a setup and I believe K3LR and KC1XX probably
do to.  
  These M/M stations aggressively work any station
they can find, and any DX spot, all the while
continuing to CQ. However it has been my experience
that they do watch out and have methods in place to
prevent transmitting more than 1 signal on a band at a
time. 
   What you probably heard was a station CQing in one
spot, and happened to catch the mult station make a
QSO while the CQing station was pausing for a reply.  
   If you definitely heard a station transmitting more
than one signal in the same band, I recommend emailing
the sponsors.  If enough people complain, they'll do
something about it.

That may be true of some stations, but the legit ones are very quick to
share the techniques they use...and have done so right here on this
reflector.

WRTC2002 COMMITTEE ANNOUNCES ONE MORE TEAM

How many cards are there in a pack of cards? Yes, and that is the number of 
world-class teams in WRTC2002. Fifty-two (52) two-man teams are busy shaping 
their strategies to compete for the title of  World's Best in Amateur Radio 
Team Contesting. Gold, silver and bronze medals are being polished for 
presentation to the winners.

We are delighted to have Hrane Milosevic, YT1AD and Mladen Bogdanov, YU7NU join 
the event as a wildcard selection and second team from Yugoslavia. The Yugoslav 
team will replace the N6KT/ K6NA team since Rich, N6KT is not able to come for 
reasons beyond his control. We invite Rich to be in Helsinki in spirit and 
welcome Glenn Ratman,K6NA as one of our senior referees at WRTC2002.

After WRTC 2002 I will be on a Baltic Cruise from July 19 to July 26 and
we will be docking at the ports listed above.  Would like to meet some
of the locals at least for a beer while we're in port.  Please let me know
if you are available.

I'll be in NW Connecticut for FD Weekend and am looking for a FD site to
invade for a couple hours- I'll be in Goshen  (Woodridge Lake area)-
Anything happening at Mohawk Mtn or close by?
I worked at one years ago north of Torrington but dont remember where it
was- I just remember a big mountain, rain and good, cold beer.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Automated Logs Received Page for ARRL Contests
Message-ID: <125490A005E3D3118C9C00805FC743CC044F8D45@KAHLESS>

At noon on Friday June 14, ARRL turned on an automated "Logs Received" page
for the ARRL June VHF QSO Party.  All properly submitted electronic logs
that are receipted by the Contest Robot are automatically added to the page
on an hourly basis.

Logs that are returned to the sender with a message citing problems and
needing corrections are not receipted by the Robot and will not appear on
the list. They will only appear once corrections are made by the participant
and the re-submitted log has been receipted by the Robot.  Paper logs that
must be manually entered by the ARRL Contest Branch staff also will not
appear on the list until after submission deadlines have passed for the
contest and all data entry for the paper logs has been completed.

This automated system be utilized for all future ARRL-sponsored contests
that are supported by the Cabrillo format and the Contest Robot.

Field Day is not supported by the Robot.  Field Day logs will be posted once
all initial data entry for the event has been finished.

If you have questions, please feel free to contact me at n1nd@arrl.org or by
phone at 860-594-0232.

My station is still available for many of the summer contests.  This is
your chance to try out different radios, big antennas, amps, SO2R, etc
with low pressure contests.  I now have the SO2R setup installed and
working so you can try that stuff out.  I also have vhf/uhf setup for
6m, 2m, 70cm, though only low power and on one radio.  Bring a friend or
two and do a multi op.  There is no charge for using my station, I see
this as a chance to keep the dust off the equipment and test out changes
during the summer slow times.  Please feel free to pass this info on to
anyone who you think may be interested.

I have operations scheduled now for:
6/22-23 Field Day
7/13-14 IARU - doing m/s, could still use an op or two
8/3-4 NAQP CW
9/14-15 WAE SSB
9/28-29 CQ/RJ RTTY - doing m/s-lp again to try and take the world this
time!

Still free are the following weekends.  I listed some of the contests
for those weekends, but you could do any other one you might be
interested in.

software in the contest mode...There must be other pgms where they use F1-F12

This would be an interesting statistic - I would be especially interested
from the other side of the rim - wonder if there are any major JA or other
Asian logs which could be crunched for data as to ages of the US
entrants....CT, NA etc import quite nicely into Excel!

I know Sweepstakes Checks have been looked at along these lines but this
would be even more telling!

With WriteLog in RTTY, I use the mouse only to highlight parts of his 
report that my log needs (his call  and individual pieces of his contest 
exchange).  I could type these in, but mousing is easier. The F keys are 
set up to do the rest.

Typically in an RTTY contest, I have two mouse clicks and two key presses 
per QSO when running

In CW or SSB, I would type them in rather than mouse click.

Hello Steve
NA does this very well and also CT an TR programs do the same things.  I
like NA for personal reasons.  It covers almost any contest you can think of
and some that you dream up.
A free down load can be had from http://www.ac6v.com/  I'm sure that it is
available several other places.

Hi Contesters,


There was a pretty good condx (20 and 15 m) during
AA-DX CW (and WPX CW also) but sorry there were not
enough participans. Or there were lots of
"participans" with NO activity, only looked clusters
for some rare country and do not give a little QSO to
avid contest stations. I saw ages in AA-DX CW, all
(90-95 %) conesters gave me over 36 years (I gave 40.)
I think that Asia is "old". After 20 years will not be
contesters there, or most of Asians will give 56, 66,
58, 78, 87, 95 101... How about this in USA and EU??

Congrats to W1PL, Laci (Laci bacsi), I heard his
number is 90. Long live Laci bacsi, long live ham
contest!!!

The only contest logging software I've used is TR-Log. It was recommended 
to me 5 years ago by several fellow contesters and I've never regretted the 
decision to try TR-Log. Literally, it does everything. Being in the DOS 
environment doesn't bother me. I also use it for non-contest logging. If 
you are a CW op, you will really appreciate its endless capabilities.

Steve, I would give WL a strong vote over TR.  TR is a DOS program.  Not that 
there is anything wrong with that, as Seinfeld would say.  It's just that you 
would be latching onto something from an old generation.  

I have been using WL for 3 years and, although I have my frustrations with 
it, I do really love it.  A friend of mine who is a died-in-the-wool TR geek 
had me try TR.  In a way, it is really cleaver, but I did find it quite 
difficult to used to.  TR has many wonderful features, but for me WL does the 
job nicely.

Actually, you could adopt both WL and TR, and have a really fun time learning 
both.  Throw in CT and NA for grins.  With the combination, you would 
probably have max flexibility for contesting!

Message-ID: <3D0E3572.7D75602B@btv.ibm.com>

Folks,

Just in time for FD the freeware version of TR has been posted to the TR web
site. It is based on the latest version, 6.68, and is fully functional for a
limited number of contests including ARRL Field Day, Stew Perry, Region One
Field Day, Japanese International DX Contest, New Zealand Field Day, South
American World  Wide Contest, ...and CW Simulator Mode. There have been many
improvements since the last freeware version released in June 2000...band map
improvements, radio support, etc. A comprehensive READ.ME file of the changes is
included in the package.

Go to http://www.qth.com/tr/free.html to retrieve it.

I'll be attending a CITEL meeting in Fortaleza in mid-July and was wondering if 
there are any contesters/DXers there who would like to get together during the 
meeting (some ARRL folks will be there, too).

Message-ID: <008101c216cb$d7175d40$8600a8c0@yumaaz.adelphia.net>

With the advent of ARRL's enhanced on-line contest
reporting,
constraints on the number of contest categories
imposed by available QST space
are removed, or at least reduced. Computerized
log-checking has also reduced
the need to minimize the number of categories in
contests, since the administrative
overhead has been reduced.

I'd like to see the High Band (10, 15, 20) and Low
Band (40, 80, 160) categories
restored in the ARRL DX Test. There are a number
of reasons why I think this move
would enhance the contest world-wide:

1. Declining JA activity has made it much more
difficult for western USA
stations to compete in all categories, but
especially the all-band category,
where absorption on 40, 80, and 160 precludes big
European runs.

2. There are a lot of stations around the world
who have a small tower and tribander
in the back yard, and an assortment of low,
seriously compromised antennas for 40,
80, and 160. There is not much incentive for these
stations to get on the air in the
all band category, since they know that they
cannot turn in a competitive score. On the
other hand, a tribander can do a quite creditable
job on the high bands, which would
encourage activity.

3. The single-band category, while enabling
disadvantaged stations to be more competitive
on one single band, rapidly gets to be pretty
boring.

4. The High band/ low band categories would enable
SO2R operation, making the contest much
more interesting than single band category, where
SO2R is impracticable for most people.


To me, the payoff in any contest is to enjoy the
contest experience itself, and, afterward, to
to see how I ranked, with the data arranged the
way I like to see it presented. I
really don't care about QST listings or
certificates. By the time QST and the certificates
come out, the contest is old news. Coupled with
the ARRL's growing accent on Internet
score reporting, I think the additional categories
would add a spark of growth and an
interesting new dimension to the ARRL DX Test.

I would like to add my humble vote "yes" to this idea.

As Dave mentions in his list of reasons, I'm one of those
ops that has been doing single band efforts the last few 
years because I get whipped like a rented mule on 80/160.
Even with good conditions and high Q totals my "all band" 
scores are pathetic.

Normally I don't subscribe to the idea of making changes 
just to allow more folks into the winning circle but this is a
good idea. It will allow the low banders the weekend for
non radio stuff and the highbanders some sleep. As the
cycle swings the crowd will shift from high to low. 

The ops that win "all band" will still win "all band", of course, 
as I doubt they would be interested in this idea. Their plaque 
would still look the same with or without high/low divisions 
but their scores might be reduced overall somewhat as some
stations will refuse to move up/down.

There is no down side to Dave's idea. You might be against
it if you were serious about getting the world record but that's
a long way off now and maybe never happen as TVI and old
age wipes us out one by one.

While I will be the first to say that "we don't need no stinking new 
categories - we got too many already", I believe that Dave's proposal makes 
much sense.

i *am* old enough to remember the "hign band" and "low band" categories, and 
probably would enter one of these categories occasionally (and probably let 
someone else simultaneously do the other one as well).

Dave's points are very well taken, although my personal interest in that I'd 
love to spend lots of time on the lowbands - all of them - yet still be 
potentially competitive (hmmm, lowband SSB - maybe I'd skip that one :) then 
again, maybe not)

I have to agree wholeheartedly with Dave.  When the high and low band 
categories were created for the ARRL DX Contest in the middle seventies, it 
seemed to me like a great idea.  To paraphrase Dave's points, it seemed 
like there were a number of ways to be really competitive in high band; 
from a TH6 to a big quad, to a monobander Christmas tree.  When I first 
went off to school in Arkansas in 1976, I saw the other side.  My new 
friend WA5RTG (now K5GO) was an avid entry in the low band category, with a 
Mosley S-402 shorty-fourty (a big antenna in those days) and an assortment 
of low band wires.  As Dave points out, you don't have to focus on big 
antennas for six bands.

While I respect the efforts put forth by the single band entrants, those 
categories have little or no interest to me.

I never understood why the low and high band categories were done away 
with.  I would like to see some consideration given to bringing them back.

Yes, this is a very good idea. Many low-budget contesters find it hard to
get good antennas for all the 6 bands, yet find that a weekend stuck on just
one band can get rather monotonous. A Low or High Band entry gives a guy/gal
more enjoyment and variety without the need for the such a big antenna
set-up.

But why keep it just for the ARRL DX Test ? Surely there are other contests
where this would work as well.

Who should we write to in order to get this idea really moving ????

They were done away with to encourage more participation on the low
bands. It was thought that the ubiquitous tribander in concert with
the high band category was keeping the little guys off the low bands.

The WPX tribander/wires category is a partial answer to this that
suits the little guy.

Also, why NOT allow an entrant to submit more than one single band
entry. What harm does that do? Takes a very skilled contester to max
out two different bands.

Let me tell you why antenna- or propagation-challenged ops
did NOT like the High/Low band categories in the ARRL DX
test and why the single band categories were big improvements.

Low band means you must have good antennas for 3 difficult
bands - 40, 80 and 160 to be competitive.  Many of us can
swing one or another of those, at least on a temporary
basis but cannot get up or keep up all three.

Similarly, while tribanders are popular antennas for the
high bands, to do well in the High Band category, you need
propagation on all three bands!  This may be ok for those
in Florida, who apparently get 10 meter openings to DX even
in the punk years, but is murder for those in the Midwest.

The Single Band categories are much superior.  If you want
to operate two or three bands, you can, and still enter
you best band as a Single Band score. This is much more
likely to be competitive or "respectible" than entering
a Tri-band category with only one band's score, especially
since multipliers count on a "per-band" basis.

I have to agree wholeheartedly with Dave.  When the high and low band 
categories were created for the ARRL DX Contest in the middle seventies, it 
seemed to me like a great idea.  To paraphrase Dave's points, it seemed 
like there were a number of ways to be really competitive in high band; 
from a TH6 to a big quad, to a monobander Christmas tree.  When I first 
went off to school in Arkansas in 1976, I saw the other side.  My new 
friend WA5RTG (now K5GO) was an avid entry in the low band category, with a 
Mosley S-402 shorty-fourty (a big antenna in those days) and an assortment 
of low band wires.  As Dave points out, you don't have to focus on big 
antennas for six bands.

While I respect the efforts put forth by the single band entrants, those 
categories have little or no interest to me.

I never understood why the low and high band categories were done away 
with.  I would like to see some consideration given to bringing them back.

At medium high latitudes when the sun-cycle will be low, an "high band" 
category will merge more or less into a SB20 entry.

Not really. Do 10 or 15, and 80 or 160. Except for the peak of the cycle, 
when one is open the other is dead.

I can see the arguments on both sides of the High Band/Low Band debate, but
what's the rationale behind allowing only one single-band entry? The ARRL DX
rules make a pretty big deal out of prohibiting this, so there must be a
reason. But on the surface, it seems like it would increase participation
and fun. There are definitely some interesting possibilities for SO2R ops.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Restoring High Band/Low Band categories in ARRL DX Test
References: <3D10A8AC.19036.450271@localhost>
Message-ID: <006d01c217fa$b7597030$0500a8c0@swift>

After reading my prior post a few time, I realized how the sentence
could be read otherwise...

Let me reword.

New entry category: Two-band. Single operator only.
Entrant picks any two bands. Entry is scored in the same fashion as an
all band entry that was confined to two bands. All two-band entries
compete together by power level regardless of the bands picked. No
band-change restrictions between the two bands.

Picking the two best bands with night/day, propagation, equipment, all
to maximize score will tax operator knowledge and skill. Or operate
what your circumstances allow you.

73, Guy.

I'd like to second that idea also!  During the day, contests are
a lot of fun from the west coast, but after dark things get
pretty slow for us "vertical and low dipole" crowd.  On Friday
night, it is not worth while trying to beat out the "big guns" on
the 40 and 80 meter pileups.  The incessant calling and calling
(meat for another time) on low bands makes it impossible to work
any dx from the west coast with a small station.  The endless run
of JA's that used to make it exciting just doesn't happen any
more.  Having a low band-high band category makes good sense.  73

Our Alpha 87 manual appears to be among the "lost, strayed,  or stolen" 
category.

Does anyone have a suggestion of how we can get a replacement manual?

Actually all we really need at the moment is the section that describes the 
procedure for setting up the "Bandpass" L/C circuits.  Most of the time it 
has been used in the "Manual" mode, but it seems a good time to check the 
settings for the "Bandpass" mode in case we need to use this feature.

Thanks,

I've just got to throw my "two cents" into this one. 

The Hi/Lo Band idea is one whose time has definitely (re) arrived..

For many of us time and circumstances have conspired to make the SO/AB
catagory no longer a practical option.  Some contesters elect, as I often
do, to settle for a SO/SB which can be fun ... up to a point.  I've often
simply operated just the Hi-Bands and submitted the log in the AB
catagory.  In one instance I chose the Tribander/Wires catagory with zero
Qs on the wires.  A bit silly, but it was an option.  (Actually my 15 M
SO/SB score would have earned me a higher place finish ... but it didn't
really matter as I had a real blast that weekend.)

If the contest sponsors do no more than allow the Hi/Lo band catagories
to be designated in the listinigs (published or Web) I think it would be
fun to see how things stack up amongst those who chose this approach.  

Give the plaques and praise to the SO/AB winners, they certainly deserve
them.  But let the rest of us have some fun in our own arena.

Nuff said ...

Joe, W5ASP

I have 38 YU7SF contest qsos in my logging program just since 1990, and I'll
bet there'd be twice as many as that counting YU1SF qsos going back to the
early 1970s.  I don't remember any big scores from him, but he'd be there to
call me in EVERY contest.  We never said anything more than contest
exchanges, but he was a contest fixture.  I remember he always noted the
number of total contests he had participated in on his QSLs, and I think his
WAE soapbox indicated he had participated in something like 35 straight WAE
contests.  RIP Laci...

The "official" ARRL Summary sheet shows it listed as "Satellite".

Tom-
The CORRECT band to show satellites contacts on is SAT. However, if your
program does not have that (like ours- WL, or older versions of NA) then log
the satellite Q's on any band- or the TX freq - or a band that didn't have
any other Q's. We logged them on 220. Then make a note to the sponsor and
log checker as to what you have done.
The important thing is that they are identitied as SATELLITE contacts.
GL to you guys. We haven't talleyed our score yet, but it should be close to
our score from last year. Bet we are in a horse race for MO state honors.

The correct band would be Satellite. Otherwise I would assume it to be your
recieved freq. My reasoning would be that is where you copied the
exchange. Just like in a split op on HF, the DX tx freq is the one that goes on
the QSL card not your tx freq. (Downlink is 70cm)

Just one man's opinion, I could be wrong.

Many times operators that tried to tell ME what MY class and section was,
instead of reporting their own.  They would say something like, "UR 3A CO"
or "You're 1B in Kansas" when I was clearly 2A in Western Washington!  Could
I have been wrong?

My favorite is "Thanks for Nevada, that's a new one."

The best on-site event happened to me a few years ago. I was coaching a new 
general at his first FD and first time on HF. I went through the logging, 
exchange, etc, and demonstrated a few QSO's. I turned the rig over to him and 
went to the rest room. When I returned he hadn't made a single QSO. I asked 
what the problem was. He said he couldn't tune anyone in. Puzzled, I asked 
for an example. He set the dial, as you would on a VHF radio, to an even 
frequency, like 144.940. The only problem was that there was no one zero beat 
on 14.280 or 14.290, so he couldn't work anyone. 

But then, FD is where many of us learned the inside skinny about hamming.

Patience is a virtue.

I feel your pain. I heard the same thing. I also heard one of our ops S&Ping

HF much?", one said "not at all," so I didn't bother. I think these guys

I don't think that "forthright correcting" is what is needed.  A "kinder,
gentler" approach is what's needed.

Those of us who can operate, need to demonstrate the proper way to operate,
so that these newbies can learn from it and hopefully emulate what they've
seen.

It seems that many of them are intrigued by the process of running stations,
even on CW, when they may not be able to copy themselves.

Let's face it, when their shack is on their belt, they don't get any
experience or training on how to work stations quickly and efficiently.

A couple of years ago, I stopped by a local Field Day set up at a very
visible public park.  They were set up in a large pavilion with antennas
hanging all around.  There were large signs, lots of literature for visitors
to pick up, and people hanging around, ready to talk to visitors.   They had
two stations.  One was empty, the other was manned by one person, with a
crowd gathered around watching him.  I watched for about 15 minutes while he
tuned around and worked no one!  Do you think this was exciting to visitors?
I think not.  I didn't know any of these folks so I just left, but they
obviously had no clue what to do on the air.

We also need to remember that those we're working at the other end of the
path may be equally challenged and need encouragement, rather than
criticism.

We have a pre-FD meeting about 2-3 days before the weekend. At that time, 
we try to give any new ops, or any old ops who still persist, 'suggestions' 
on what to say and what NOT to say... with particular attention to what NOT 
to say. For the most part, it seems to work pretty well, though some will 
revert, regardless of what they know is right.

Of course, we Do have to remember that this is a TRAINING EXERCISE and not 
a contest, so should be willing to 1) cut everyone some slack, and 2) 
attempt to further "suggest" possibly better (e.g. more 
appropriate/efficient) methods of getting the information passed without 
unnecessary verbiage. But I don't necessarily think that it's all that 
appropriate to correct them WHILE they're on the air (unless they wish to 
be), and often in front of a number of their friends. Doing so can often 
cause you to lost an otherwise good operator.

Don't forget the 20M op who never makes a Q because he can't "find a clear 
spot".

Why?

That's one of the things about Field Day ... to teach these folks proper
operating procedures!  If we want to build the contest ranks, we
contesters must be the ones to pass along what we know to those who show
any kind of interest.  If we don't take the time to teach proper
operating procedures, we can't turn around and complain about poor
operating procedures.  

Our Field Day set-up included the new "GOTA" station ... which had none
other than K1TO teaching the newbies proper operating procedures!  If
you're going to learn, it might as well be from one of the best.

That's what Field Day is all about.

In past years when this has happened to me, for fun I'd sometimes say 
something like:

"OK W7ABC 1A Georgia"
"2A Washington"
"W7ABC Thanks QRZ Field Day K7AW"

And take the frequency.

Partly because I'm lazy, mostly because, these aren't a bunch of 12 year old

I have NEVER understood this timeless Newington pronouncement.  Somebody
show me why accuracy and efficiency should not be rewarded, especially
during an Emergency Preparedness Exercise.

I know I'm preaching to the choir.

My only guess is that it is an attempt to "not turn away the curious
newcomer."  But what does that tell us about our image to the others?
Perception is everything whether based in reality or not.  We can't ignore
this, and my guess is a substantial investment in this area by contesters
would yield an excellent return.

I think having Dennis in the Marketing chair at the ARRL could be a good
turn for contesting, but not if we sit around and watch.

Well, unless you're about to strangle the guy in the tent with his own mic
cord if says "please copy, you're..." one more time.  Better for contesting

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Internet free computer time syncronization???
Message-ID: <200206251540.g5PFe0Tf019363@rm-rstar.sfu.ca>

I was recently introduced to Beaconsee and at one station where
I would like to use it, relying on the internet for clock
syncronization is not realistic. Does anyone know of a
cost effective means of doing this? I have been looking
for an "atomic clock" which connects to the computer,
similar to an alarm clock I have, but so far I have
not found one. One product I found that uses satellites
costs around $500, which is out of the question.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

And you're exactly right.  If it's promoted as a contest - even lightly -
we'll lose a lot of folks that just don't want to be or think they can be
"competitive".  Without getting into the psychology of it all, I think the
contest community's best return on time invested would be to...

1) Be there at Field Day and teach, teach, teach...
2) Suggest a Field Day challenge of another local club - say CW-against-CW
or something like that so it doesn't require that all operators be fully
committed to compete.
3) Right after Field Day, when everybody is still full of good memories,
suggest some kind of Sweepstakes "event" within the club for making, say,
100 QSOs or working 70 sections.  Challenge another local club in some way.
4) Remind folks about the easy-going, friendly August NAQP (or whatever the
equivalent is in your QTH)
5) Pounce on the guys that are having the best time and organize a low-key
multi-op for WW or something.

Field Day is mostly a competition between one's own group, Mother Nature,
and the Forces of Murphy.  For those of us that take it to the next level,
we can do that, too.  It would be a good idea to add to the Field Day write
up - in the spirit of enhancing contest coverage in QST without adding
pages - commentary to the effect of, "If you enjoyed the freewheeling
hurly-burly of Field Day, try entering the following events..."

......AA4GA says..

"OK W7ABC 1A Georgia"
"2A Washington"
"W7ABC Thanks QRZ Field Day K7AW"

And take the frequency.  

Mean, I know.    :)

K3FT opines..

Mean? NO WAY!  It's all part of the game. If
another op gives the opening because they are
unaware of a technique.. then it's fair game to
take and go! It's part of learning. 

They will wonder 'what happened?' (maybe!) and
that might provoke them to learn something.

It is like any other effort. If you play a sport
and the other team is short of info on a proper
technique to play and you see the advantage and
take it.. well... life is...'

One thing about 'real life on the air contesting'
it plays no favorites and gives no quarter. It's
equitable.. and all can learn the tricks and
tips.

K5ZM (at K7AW) said he heard:

>"CQ Field Day, W7ABC..."
>
>"K7AW.."
>
>"K7AW, go ahead.." (??!!)

And it's not just FD.

There is a prominent local W1-area VHF/UHF college club station that operates
exactly
this way during VHF contests (at least the two in which I have operated and
listened to them...and sometimes they even omit the "go ahead" part). That is,
when they can actually hear any of the stations calling them, since turning a
beam occasionally also seems to be outside their skill set. I won't mention
the station specifically, but it is located at a famous Institute of
Technology in Massachusetts. Some operators/stations are just painful to
listen to.

But once in a while, a good op shows up at the local club FD site. The most
important lesson in contest operating I *ever* learned was on FD, when I took
over from the club hotshot on 40SSB, and was incredibly tense and nervous. I
starting talking so fast nobody could understand me, got all worked up when I
couldn't copy a guy calling me or if two guys called at once. The club
hotshot, Howie Gould, then K1HHN, now W9HG, tapped me on the shoulder and said
"Come on now, take a deep breath and relax. Don't get so worked up. This is
supposed to be fun, right? So have fun!". 

That was in 1969 I think.

And I'm still having fun. Thanks, Howie.

Thanks for the replies to my previous message, but I guess
the title I chose did not convey the idea I wanted.

I am looking for a means of syncronizing the computer's
clock WITHOUT HAVING AN INTERNET CONNECTION.

I am aware of some of the software that will do it
via the internet, but in the particular situation I
have in mind, using the internet is not an option.

Any thoughts???

Thanks again.

Check out this web site:

They sell clocks that sync off low-frequency transmissions of WWVB.  One model
has a serial port which can be used to synchornize your computer:

I, for one, am grateful for every contact I make during FD weekend with a 
new station or operator that might normally never get on during HF contest 
operations.

As I work the "inefficient ops", I make a point, not always, but often, of 
thanking them for the contact, wishing them a "good morning'" before I give 
the exchange, and even take a second to ask the op where the exact location 
and setup situation might be.

Adherence to ultra rate highly efficient contest QSO exchange format ? - 
not exactly.
Fun ? - yes.
Will it bring somebody new into a weekend chase ? - Hopefully.
Do I care at how inept the "other end" might be in the QSO exchange ? - Nope.

A conventional GPS that has a standard serial connection can furnish 
accurate time synch to the PC. Not sure what software is required, but I 
believe UI-View has it built-in. Maybe other products as well.

I was considering adding a cheap GPS to this computer for time synch, but 
then was able to hook it to my home network instead, so now it gets its 
time synch from the internet via freeware NetLab 1.4 instead. Back when I 
shopped, I found GPS refurbs as low as $50 (TripMate brand).

The very early computer clocks could be adjusted for drift. Don't know if 
any motherboards still offer that - maybe you could hack an outboard 
circuit to do it for your motherboard, then have the opsys reset the 
software clock from that periodically??

While we're on the subject, and understand I don't consider myself of
your cr?me de le cr?me contester types.  I do enjoy contesting and work
hard to get the rate up and keep it there... HOWEVER, most noticeable to
me during the just passed field day are the number of stations who call
a station running a frequency and immediately sending their report as
part of their initial call - even during a pileup.  So, in the middle of
our pileups, a station is trying hard to work us, but cannot seem to
wait until he knows we're calling him. This appears more pervasive and
critical than some simple grammar "you are" stuff.  If you're calling a
station, you best make darned sure he's talking to you before you send
your exchange. On a couple of occassions, stations that did that to
me... Often waited until they were the ONLY ones left trying to work me,
and then were told to "make sure I've got your callsign before you go
sending a report" That technique to me, is MUCH more important than "you
are blah blah."  I can ignore the grammar issue...  The other however is
annoying, and happens VERY too often.

And how many of us (myself included) actually sent the report correctly
each time? 

(using N0SS since he can take it out on me personally if he so desires!)

KC0CZI QRZ FIELD DAY
N0SS
N0SS DE KC0CZI 2A MO 
KC0CZI DE N0SS 2A MO 


Suffix-only dropping is also pervasive and annoying.  That isn't a
callsign.  What's your FULL callsign?  Surely you guys realize how
annoying it is to have to back up in your logging software and fix the
call.

And what about stations that REFUSE to use phonetics even when asked...
Can't begin to tell you how many times that happened this past weekend.

All in all however - those issues are good for receivers to deal with as
prepping them for real disasters when calling stations will not follow
your requested formatics.

However, I totally realize that this is NOT a contest... The desire to
get and maintain a high-rate is more as a training and exercise in
technique to ensure that operators are efficient handling messages
rapidly (in whatever method works best), though formatted exchanges go a
LONG way to conditioning that listening to only expect certain things...
In a real disaster, there wouldn't be any pre-conditioned formattics
(especially in a tactical environment).  But, again, it's not a contest
-  it's a disaster preparedness exercise.  Again - our primary interest
in ALL of this is to GET THE MESSAGE THROUGH.  For Field Day.. I tend to
make some exceptions, and remember them as training points later.

Of more interest to me... How many of your clubs actually treated your
setup and/or tear down as a disaster response?  I suspect not nearly
enough.

Once again, I find myself essentially in-tune with what Bob, and some
others, have written.

Instead of ridiculing our FD brethren, they need to be encouraged, and shown
HOW to do it.  We all had to start some-time, some-how,  and I wonder how
many of us would like to hear recordings of our first ever QSO's, contest or
not..............?

Sadly, in the collective, we have managed to leave a pathetic legacy of HOW
NOT TO OPERATE for all the world to hear, and emulate.

WHERE do these gentlemen learn the "please copy"?  NETS and LISTS, of
course.  Wonderful examples of how not to operate......

WHERE do these gentlemen learn that you don't even have to know the other
station's call, before calling?  PACKET, of course.
Perhaps the ULTIMATE example of non-operating.

We have met the enemy, and it is us.

Operating a casual 1B this happened to me several times.  This actually
turns the frequency over to me.  I send 1B Georgia and W7ABC comes back with
2A Washington.  Its also slows things down.

I also noted extra comments (such as North Carolina sure beats Georgia).
Several also told me "when last heard" but since a report is not needed I
can't figure out why this is said.

Regarding the phrase "please copy" I hear this now in local traffic
handling.   As an old hand (years ago ) of the National Trafiic System
(local, TCC,  and both RN5 and 4RN) this must be a new technique.  I hope
ARES does not teach this and I am asking the Georgia SM about this.  Its
extra words that aren't needed whether a contest or an emergency test
exercise.

I did note some excellent operators even among the young and the YL's
recruited to bring in contacts.
K1AR's first contacts were at a field day before he was first licensed (in
the July Contest Column in CQ)...bet there are a lot of us out there!

With all due apologies to Jim's very insightful post, it is NOT us.
That "please copy" can probably be traced to less than 50 hams in the
US, operating with greatly exaggerated opinions of themselves.

I remember checking into the 20 Meter county hunters net as I was
leaving Church, and thought I would drive north to hand out a few
relatively rare ones for GA. Apparently, the MC, a K2, had announced
some time
before not to use phonetics, and I was soundly chastised. I replied to
him that our minister, as a general rule, did not allow pickups in the
sanctuary, and that he could "kiss my ass"!

In this case, a virus which has infected 10s of thousands.

Dxpeditions are another cause. When they ask for "last 2", do what
9K2ZZ does. LOG them as such. His mgr. has explicit instructions to
reject any QSL logged with a 2 letter call, and to put such on the
original QSL with a note to that effect!

It's not us, but until we have the guts to openly criticize and inform
a newcomer for such, we share the blame.

1) Smart band map (similar or better then in TRlog)
2) Fully user configurable
3) Possibility to add tests with non standard rules and point and multipler
systems
5) CW and RTTY sending and  receiving
6) Support of all the types and brands of radios
7) Must be able to control antenna switch, linear amp, rotator
8) Build in Digital voice keyer
9) Ability to record audio of the entire contest with time stamps
10) Full support of M/S and M/M (things like passing mult from band to band,
keeping logs on different computer of the network in sync, provision of tx
inhibit on all the other trcvrs when one of them is in TX mode fo M/S etc)
11) On the fly and post contest analyses of band changes, rate by hours,
calls continental distribution ets (see post utility in TRlog)
12) Super check partial and other user database support
13) should be very fast even with several comps in the network and few
thousand QSO in the log
14)Should run across the range of platforms (Win95/98/NT/2000/XP )
15) should be reasonable in hardware requirements (should run on
Pentium90/133 with 16Mg of RAM)
I could go on an on but will better stop here :)

Every contester has a different idea of what the "ideal" should
be.  There is no single contest logger that is best in all
respects - any more than there is a single best antenna or best
rig.

If you're serious about writing a contest logger, then just do
it - and start by including the features and the contests that you
yourself prefer.  It'll take longer than you think, and it may be
even longer before before anyone will buy the software.  When they
do, however, you'll soon get all the feedback you need.  If the
software is free, on the other hand, some potential users may feel
you're not fully commited to the project.

Hallo Paul,

here in Europe we can use the DCF-77 transmitter nr Frankfurt
on 77,5 kHz or MSF in England on 60 kHz to do that.

You will need a software that can decode the time signals
and then set the PC clock. SpecLab by DL4YHF 
(see www.qsl.net/dl4yhf) does is.

However.. I am not sure if you can receive DCF-77 or
MSF in North America.

Thanks for the replies to my previous message, but I guess
the title I chose did not convey the idea I wanted.

I am looking for a means of syncronizing the computer's
clock WITHOUT HAVING AN INTERNET CONNECTION.

I am aware of some of the software that will do it
via the internet, but in the particular situation I
have in mind, using the internet is not an option.

Any thoughts???

Thanks again.

Having "been there, done that", I see a "noticable difference" in the
ability to copy/understand the received information under pressure, in those

Until those that feel they are prepared for disaster communications are
ready to admit that they aren't, all of the training in the world will not
have any success, because "they" won't attend?

IMHO, Field Day should be a "social event" with some directed interest
toward proving the ability to provide emergency communications and
demonstrate this ability to the public. The "real" emergency agencies are
already aware of whom they can "count on" in a "real" emergency!

Hi Paul,

No problem.  All you need is a GPS that outputs NEMA
sentences (most do) with an RS-232 cable.  Then, go to
http://www.kaska.demon.co.uk/tardis.htm and download
Tardis 200, a shareware atomic clock program that works
with Internet sources, or a GPS that outputs NEMA sentences.

I used it during the VHF contest (from a mountaintop w/no internet)
for syncing JT44, and it gave me 0.127 second accuracy!  Not too bad.

I talked with Georgia ARES/NTS personnel and the phrase "please copy" did
not come from them.
They all noticed this too.

The ball is in out court as contesters to get to the clubs and help them
train their operators in good techniques.   Most of the field day operators
are not contesters and welcome advice as they want to improve the club
score.   I told the SEC that even a slow op could add 5 or 10 QSO's per hour
if they followed good procedures.   I was told that many of the young
operators were given a script to follow
in making QSOs.   One YL (she is now a General) at a local club made over
500 SSB QSOs following a script last year.

Field Day is a great opportunity for contesters to make an impact and train
new contesters.  Its a big weekend for many clubs.   You might even learn
something!

For what little I'm sure it'll be worth... Even though my operation has 
been 95% CW, I began operating in sectional phone nets in about 1959, 
though it wasn't until probably 1965 or so that I began hearing "Please 
copy" used by some operators. By the late '60s it was quite a bit more 
prominent (at least in the Midwest). I believe it's still seen regularly on 
a number of phone nets... usually local or sectional, rather than regional 
or larger.

Granted, it's not good operating procedure, but it IS something many ops 
have grown up with and will continue to do so until those who use it stop 
doing so.

I think, for many people, the "please copy" acts as an instinctive "bridge"
between the callsign and the report in a situation where a signal report is not
required. We are used to giving a "59" before the required exchange, and when we
can't start the exchange with the standard "59", we want to replace it with
something else.

You rarely hear "please copy" in ARRL DX or CQ WPX etc., where the report starts
with a signal report...

I catch myself somethimes wanting to say it as well, just to smooth out the
verbage in the report...I'm no linguist, but it seems to flow better...Whether
it be "please copy" or "your" or "good morning, your" or whatever...It also
seems a little more friendly...It's been going on for years...I remember my
first Field Day in 1975, one of the old timers said it in every QSO...That still
sticks in my head and is the reason the phrase still comes to my mind when
giving a SSB report in Field Day...Must have been more prevalent back then ?? I
don't know...I stuck to CW this year.......

73, and hope to see you in the RAC Canada Day Contest July 1st 0000z-2359z
(where a signal report IS required, so I'll be testing out my theory!!)

For a wireless solution using GPS satellites, look at TAPR's

I have poked fun at myself for years for using "Please copy" in contests. I 
know I shouldn't, but I can't help myself. I think it goes back to my 
hometraining; I can still hear my mother telling me to say "Please," and "Thank 
you," for practically every social situation.

But really, "Please copy" is so much more friendly, more social, and, more 
importantly, a more effective attention-getting signal than an abrupt 
"Thirty-seven alpha Sacramento Valley." What, no "QSL", no "Roger", not even a 
"Thanks" preceding the exchange? "Please copy" is a very efficient way of 
saying, "Pick up your pencil and turn on the DSP or whatever you have to do; 
here comes my exchange. You ready?"

I have resisted the pressure to become less human and more robotic, especially 
during Field Day when new hams and the public are listening in such greater 
numbers than during any other time. "Please copy" is my little tiny way of 
making the scary a little bit less scary.

After September 11, a lot was written in the press about how people had become, 
at least for the moment, a little bit nicer to each other in the enormity and 
the shock of what had happened, not only in New York, but everywhere else in 
the country. People honked their horns just a little bit less, and said "Hello" 
just a little bit more. In a real real, you know, nationwide emergency, I bet 
you that hearing an occasional "Please copy" is going to give you a slightly 
more reassuring feeling as you pass traffic that is largely depressing and 
terrifying.

You guys sometimes make a mountain out of a molehill!

W6LX said that.

Scott Nichols sagely noted that....
"I think, for many people, the "please copy" acts
as an instinctive "bridge"...." and also noted 
"..It also seems a little more friendly..."

K3FT opined.. What I learned from chatting with
the pros in this world is that even though the
guiding rule is 'A-B-C' (Accuracy, Brevity,
Clarity) when transmitting traffic, the all
important, yet intangible 'human factor' must be
considered.  

The insertion of the 'Please Copy...' prior to
the start of the message (on voice circuits)
helps to impart a small but valuable bit of 'the
personal touch' in the mix.

Another purpose is to give the recieving
operators mind a chance to 'lock in' and be
absolutely ready to copy what follows. Even
though you know that the other guy is ready
because he responsded 'K3FT send your traffic'
and you start transmitting.. a 'Please copy...'
before the 'number xxx...' and the rest of the
preamble simply gives him a 1/4 of  a second to
energize the brain/body to begin actually
writing/typing.  The slight delay allows him to
move from the act of transmiting 'K3FT, Send your
traffic', put down the mic, ready his
pencil/fingers, and be absolutely ready to copy
whatever you send next. 

Regardless of how good you are, there is ALWAYS a
slight delay from the time you stop transmitting
your readiness to receive and  your full
readiness to copy. The 'Please copy' allows the
human factor of a pleasantry to occur while
providing that needed delay so the reciever can
be assured of having all in place to copy.

That is all it really is. What I was taught is we
strive for 'A-B-C' but maintaining a small bit of
'human pleasantry' in the mix is OK.

"Please copy" is probably the littlest, most insignificant of our fish to
fry.  It is hardly more of a vermiform appendix than our own repetitive and
useless "599".  If we decide to beat the newbies up for a transgression on
this level, it will hardly be a wonder if they decide to take their ham

Eu Sprint - Spring 2002 
Rules and All Time Records can be seen at <http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.

Dear OM, 
Here are the results of the first two EU Sprint contests of 2002. 
The winners of the first two sprints of the year are Timo, OH1NOA 
(operating as OH1F), and Dave, G4BUO.

SSB. Timo achieved the fourth highest SSB score ever and the second 
highest score of all time on 20m. During the SSB Sprint 20 was the best 
band and most entrants made great scores on this band. Second place 
went to Peter, YL7A. He beat OH1F on both 40 and 80 but Timo's 102 QSOs 
on 20 made the difference. Third place goes to Ran, UW5Q. Thirteen 
station made more than 150 valid QSOs and this includes some new faces, 
which is a good sign!

CW. Dave, G4BUO, won his second CW Sprint and - for the first time - the 
three highest scores are all from the same country: England. Second place 
goes to Steve, G0CKP, and third belongs to Andy, G4PIQ/P. Conditions were 
not so good as during the SSB leg on the previous weekend. 20m was still 
the best band but QSO numbers were much lower.

2002 Eu Sprint Plaques. Please remember that each country winner will 
receive a colourful certificate but - at the end of the year - the big prizes
will go 
to the three highest combined scores. To qualify you must have entered at least

three of the four European Sprint contests in 2002.

Autumn 2002. Please remember that the next two events will take place in 
October as follows: 
SSB: first Saturday in October - 5 October 2002 - managed by I2UIY 
CW: second Saturday in October - 12 October 2002 - managed by OK2FD 
Rules and All Time Records can be seen at <http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.

Finally, we were very sorry to hear of the passing of Laci, YU7SF. He was a
great supporter of all contests including the Sprints and we will all miss his
callsign in future events.

EU SPRINT 2002
In 1994 the EU Sprint Gang (I2UIY, OK2FD, DL6RAI, and G4BUO) organized  the 
first European Sprint contests. For 2001 there have been some rule changes, 
introducing an awards programme and bringing the Spring Sprints forward  in 
the  calendar.  You can find past scores and other  information  about  the 
sprints  by  visiting  the official EU Sprint web  site  at  this  address: 
<http://loja.kkn.net/~i2uiy/>.
The BIG news is that now we will award a certificate to the winners in each 
country but this is not all. Three nice plaques will be awarded for the top 
three scores from all four contests combined. Therefore, please red  circle 
the  four EU Sprint saturdays on your calendar, we will be looking for  you 
starting October 5!

EU SPRINT 2002
The  EU Sprint Gang hereby invites you to participate in the two  European 
Sprint Contests held in Autumn 2002.

ENTRANTS: any licensed station may enter the Sprint. European stations  can 
work everybody; stations outside of Europe can work only European stations.
CATEGORIES: Single Operator ONLY. Only ONE signal may be aired at one time.
DATES:
EU SPRINT Autumn:
  * SSB: first Saturday in October - 5 October 2002 - managed by I2UIY
  * CW: second Saturday in October - 12 October 2002 - managed by OK2FD
TIME: from 15:00 UTC until 18:59 UTC.
BANDS: 20, 40 and 80 metres only. 
Pilot frequencies are: SSB: 14.250, 7.050, 3.730. CW: 14.040, 7.025, 3.550
EXCHANGE: all of the following data MUST BE PART OF THE EXCHANGE: 
  a) your callsign, 
  b) the other station's callsign,
  c) your serial number starting from 001 (RST not required),
  d) your name or nickname.
Please  note  that  BOTH stations MUST repeat  BOTH  callsigns  DURING  the 
exchange. 
A valid exchange is: "OK2FD de I2UIY 118 Paolo" while "OK2FD 118 Paolo"  is 
NOT a valid exchange.
SPECIAL  QSY  RULE: if any station initiates a call (by sending  CQ,  QRZ?, 
etc.),  he is permitted to work ONLY one station on the same frequency.  He 
must  thereafter  move  AT LEAST 2 (two) kHz before  he  may  call  another 
station or before he may solicit again (CQ, QRZ?, etc.) other calls.
VALID  CONTACTS:  valid contacts are QSOs correctly logged  and  confirmed. 
Each  operator  may  use ONE and ONLY one name during the  Sprint.  If  the 
exchange is copied incorrectly, that operator will receive zero (0) points. 
In case of miscopied callsigns, both stations will receive zero (0)  points 
for that QSO.
SCORING:  each valid QSO counts one 1 (one) point. The final score  is  the 
total number of QSOs.
AWARDS: Colorful certificates will be issued to the winners of each Sprint, 
and  to the leaders in each country. A special plaque will also be  awarded 
for  the top three scores from all four contests combined. To  be  eligible 
for this award an operator must enter at least three of the Sprints in  the 
year.  Results will be forwarded as soon as possible to Leagues,  magazines 
and bulletins.
LOGS:  a single chronological log is required. Please send us your log  via 
email or on a floppy disk, if you use computer for logging. Use any of  the 
available software or send a plain ASCII file. A separate summary sheet  is

Sweepstakes is a contest where the "you're" is kind of an intro to the
serial number, "You're number 123 Bravo", etc. and actually makes sense - if
that really matters.

I don't see the big deal.  The rate is generally slow for one thing and I'd
rather see many of the other non-contester-isms mentioned in these threads
dealt with before we worry about the "you're".  I would agree that a
newcomer should not be "taught" to use the phrase, but trying to rid an old
timer of it is a waste of time.  Besides, what would FD be without some
Lid-isms?

Is this all we have to complain about? ;-)

Gentlemen,

we finished K1Baker QSL printing today, and filling process started
immediately.
Some of you will get lucky and confirm the QSO(s) in F-hafen, and some
others in F-inland, since Hrane will bring small quantity along.

Your QSL requests should be sent to Roman RZ3AA for SSB, and YT1AD for other
modes.

Then there is the guy in Phone Sweepstakes who, after answering my CQ,
always starts his exchange with me by saying "Thanks for NOT saying 'Please

Hi Lou:

Nothing whatsoever.

However, when you are in a real emergency situation, the less unnecessary 
verbiage the better. You want to get the important information passed 
without any extraneous traffic.

Hi,

I guess this whole thread is preaching to the converted. I don't imagine too
many ops who aren't at least casual contesters subscribe, so I'm not sure
what the point of the thread is.

Be that as it may...

So that my message doesn't further preach, here's my suggestion: why don't
we keep a list of contesters willing to hold seminars for clubs about
operating techniques for Field Day.

The ARRL/RAC organizations can distribute through the affiliated club system
a notice of our intent along with an invitation to contact the keeper of
said list for a referral to a volunteer contester in or near their area. If
someone could donate a small bit of server space, we could even
semi-automate the function. Perhaps its something that could go on the, oh,
just for the sake of argument, ARRL servers. This list may need to be broken
down into regions: if so, I volunteer to keep list for Canada.

Perhaps someone could even convince, horror of horrors, QST to print in May
QST a primer on contesting -- oops, sorry, operating -- for Field Day. I'll
be sending an e-mail to that effect to N1BKE shortly.

We know all this stuff, so it doesn't help to rant about it here. It won't
help to put it into NCJ, either. Sorry to break with tradition in trying to
offer a HELPFUL suggestion   ;=)   but I think it's something worthwhile,
particularly if we want to try and siphon off some FD enthusiasm into
contesting.

C'mon guys. The "please copy" issue is a metaphor for the learning curve we 
all have gone through. I can't believe you are having a literal debate over 
it. 

It is prevalent in FD because we are doing what Elmer's should do, teach our 
operating skills and values to the newcomers.  Sometimes it is most effective 
by direct instruction. Sometimes by demonstration and example. Yes, sometimes 
through humor and trial by fire.

I wasn't able to go to FD last weekend, but I got on and made a few hundred 
QSO's, taking the time to politely correct the uneducated, make suggestions 
of technique to the unskilled and having the patience to work someone calling 
endlessly or out of turn. That's why it is not a contest, but an operating

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Computer time syncronization without using
  the internet???
In-Reply-To: <200206261548.g5QFmFKF007548@contesting.com>

VA7NT needs to accurately set a computer's clock without resorting to
the Internet.

At VR2BG, the radio computer is a dedicated DOS machine, with no
connection to the outside world other than a floppy drive & serial port
connection to another machine with a 10+ year old copy of LapLink.

An equally retro approach to setting the radio computer's clock is used -
a wristwatch.  I set the watch at work from time to time & know it's well
within a second for the next week or so.  When I forget to do so before
the weekend, there is always JJY, BPM & (if the band is open)
WWV/WWVH to fall back on.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] July QST and CQ cover arrive
Message-ID: <7a.28ed8f34.2a4bcc61@aol.com>

Having been out of town on a business trip for over a week, the PO box was 
stuffed with goodies - QST, CQ, fishing magazines, etc.  The latest issue of 
QST was in pristine condition while all I found of CQ was the cover pages 
with several rips and tears.  Those staples through the thin cover material 
just does not stand up to the rigors of today's Postal Service employee 
handling.  Please bring back the days of plastic bags or brown paper 
wrappers!  Although I get my share of ripped and torn magazine covers, this 
is the first time I can remember not getting the whole magazine in some form. 
 

So, for CQ, all I can tell you is what is on the front cover:

Photo of W7HUY on his tower with an inset close-up of him strapped-on and 
waving.

Caption is: "Antenna Special!"

I agree with Jim.  Any time you exchange non-essential
information it would be better to call a spade a spade.
Replace all non-essential information with the words:
"delay delay delay" and your contesting will slowly
improve as you begin to tire of saying "delay delay delay".

Message-ID: <012801c21d97$35b95200$48bb180a@9byjx01>

Quick glance at the logs submitted so far show that less than 2% of 
entrants into the CQ WPX CW contest were "rookies" which 
CQ defines as licensed less than 3 years (S/O category only). 

22 scores out of approx 1,221. Now the deadline for submission 
is July 1st, so that might be somewhat of a factor. 

But the question is "Where are all the rookies?" 
Maybe better yet "Where are all the coaches for possible rookies?" 

Some food for thought and discussion now that Field Day is over. 

Best of health to all, 
Eric K9GY

Subject: [CQ-Contest] WRTC is indeed upon us!  Some thoughts on a contender
Message-ID: <016b01c21da7$30871be0$62f1a118@tampabay.rr.com>

Tnx K1DG for doing some WRTC/Radiosport marketing - as all who follow this
reflector know I took a vow of silence as far as operating event promotion
is considered until it is time for me to promote the FQP next Spring - by
the way did you see how many guys have....ooops, BAD OJ - NO ORANGE!


The WRTC is something indeed special and I am sorry to once again miss
attending it - it is a personal goal to attend one of them some day - I
would kind of like to cheer on my fellow Florida Contest Group members and
the other US teams.  The FCG offers defending co-champ K1TO and N2NL - who
is out to see if youth can overcome the keen minds (and crafty
competitiveness) of the WRTC's sages: two time champs K1TO and N5TJ - not to
mention a cast of other absolutely fantastic teams from around the world.

This past weekend was Field Day here in the states and one of the best parts
of the weekend for me was shaking the hands of K1TO and WC4E who were there
along with several other Florida Contest Group Members helping the local
Emergency Preparedness club who several of us contest guys have teamed up
with over the past few years.

I wished "Dahs" and "Dit" a safe and fun time in Europe...WC4E will be there
as a an adjudicator (that's judge for those in Rio Linda)

When I shook K1TO's, hand I wished him luck and I don't think I have ever
quite felt so motivated to do such - you see Dan is more than a contester,
he is a model ham.

I had just watched him spend most of his weekend Elmering new hams at the
Get On The Air station at our Field Day setup - the GOTA position is
intended to allow hams who do not have HF exposure to see what the
attraction is!  He spent hours mentoring newcomers - and he did it like a
parent teaching his children - not barking at them when they said "please
copy" and "thank you for 59 Colorado you are" - but subtly letting them know
that this was inefficient procedure, why not do this instead...you will make
more contacts!

Today I saw the first fallout of his weekend's investment in the future of
ham radio contesting - a husband and wife team that were mentored by Dan
this past weekend apparently had some real fun at Field Day...they have
since contacted the Florida Contest Group and applied for membership.

This past few years my health has gone downhill but when Dan heard I wanted
to get the multi-op in shape for the Fall '01 contest season his first words
were "HOW CAN I HELP?"  I am NOT alone, Dan has helped many club members
with antenna projects and in so doing forsaken his own station which has
been down for of a year from a major lightning strike.

No matter who wins in Finland I consider Dan to be the world's #1 contester.
I have known him since we were teenagers just getting the contest bug - and
I consider him one of my best friends.  Dan practices what a lot of us
preach - and he delivers....

I encourage hams who have not met Dan before to seek him out in OH - no, not
to get him drunk so he will have a hangover during the WRTC/Radiosport [he
will see you coming!], but to meet the man who I am proud to call my
friend...I have know him for almost 30 years now (ouch) and can tell you I
have been exposed to ham's and ham radio all of my life through my family
and have yet to find a better example of what a contester should be.  K1TO
doesn't just win when he is contesting he puts back into the hobby.

Many of the WRTC competitors I am certain are like Dan in many ways and in
this I am happy to say that yes, I am a contester...not as good as, but
still trying to be like my contesting friends, especially  K1TO.  We are a
vibrant community who often gets slammed but the fact that our scores
increase year after year indicates to me we are doing better at finding ways
to communicate with each other be it through better understanding of antenna
systems or mastering the elusive high end SO2R technique!

WRTC does us all proud - I know that the competitors will engage in the
highest level of competitive operating - including its ethics and morality!
Beside how can I not like a bunch of guys with OJ in their calls?


Good Luck Dan, that

Kid's One Terrific Operator

Go get  'em Samurai Dan!

Jim, K4OJ

....we need to work on that Kid part - anyone got Grecian Formulae? :-)

And a LOOONG series of V's before each CW contest Q should aid in the

Ward, You are absolutely right on.

It does not surprise me that others would rather have a worked station just 
"auto puke" the standard format exchange info.

Being able to Pavlovian keyboard enter a more properly spit out exchange 
info format,
in the exact sequence that it is to be entered into the computer log program,
so that editing or the tab key need never be bothered 
..........................
Now that keeps it to a real test of communications skills.

F1, F2, F3, F4, Packet Spot Grab .......... Anything else serves only to 
pollute the purity of contesting.

This is already being done Jim. The preface is "5NN".

I fail to see why "please copy" is such a big deal. Maybe it is summertime 
and you key-strokers need something to type about.

Message-ID: <NEBBIHDFILKFAICDBOGHCEBJDJAA.jljarvis@adelphia.net>

What an inane debate.  But then, FD always highlights the need
for operator training.

Clearly, when there is time available for social pleasantry,
it's appropriate.  Yet, "Please Copy" has a function.  It denotes 
the start of formal traffic.  By extension, it has been applied 
by some to contest exchanges.  So what?  Other than being slow,
does it matter?  

Clearly, it's more efficient to confirm the other stn's callsign 
instead, e.g.:  "k2bmi, 5a VT".   And the response?  "thanks, w1moo, FD"  
Note, the "thanks" pleasantry is also confirmation of receipt, and therefore 
procedural.  Repeating your callsign allows the other guy to confirm 
he got it right, at the same time as trolling for the next one.

If you want to look at efficient communications, monitor an
air traffic control net for a while.  Like perhaps NY Center,
or approach or departure control at any major metropolitan
airport.  Or be adventurous, and monitor Center, approach,
departure, tower AND ground, all at once.  

With 180 knot aircraft on approach moving at 3 mile separation or less, 
takeoffs and landings at 60 second intervals,  motion on the
ground gated in between--comm's are pretty much formatted, 
cut and dried, all business, with formal readback.  

And yet, in all but the busiest of times there's time for g'day, g'night, 
good flight, thank you sir, and see you later.  In lighter times 
you might even hear "nice day for flying, see you on the way back."  

At all but the largest and fastest of dxpeditions in peak times,
they put contesters to shame.  So what's all the blather about? 
Did anyone EVER see single station peak FD rates over 200/hour?   

Nice day for flying...OR radio.  Contact departure one two one point three, 
G'day.  (note, we don't need OVER...the courtesy is procedural.)

Jim, you forgot to include "when last heard"..

I am over 64, and while I am beginning to suffer some "senior
moments", it does not take 1/4 second for that old brain to kick in.

Nothing whatsoever.

However, when you are in a real emergency situation, the less unnecessary
verbiage the better. You want to get the important information passed
without any extraneous traffic.

...there is no question, especially on SSB, that there is some
"salesmanship" in making QSOs with non-contesters...K4XS's "anyone anywhere"
comes to mind....but....if you are truly running 'em I believe you should
NOT use extraneous verbiage - bottom line it lowers the efficiency of BOTH
the sending and receiving station.  Save the fluff for the QSL message -
instead of "QSL QRZed" a "thanks QSL QRZed" is about all that should be
needed UNLESS as I mentioned before you are in "contest enlightenment mode"
and trolling for newbies on the top end of 10 meters!

Message-ID: <002901c21de8$a3ba29e0$4fed83d1@office>

It appears that there was some problem with the Cabrillo Robots at the ARRL.
As it turns out, my 160 score was omitted from the Club Competition results.
As it turns out, the problem did not affect the standings but illustrates
one of the benefits to on-line results.

Corrected results:

#5  South East Contest Club        1,284,294  14 entries
#6  Minnesota Wireless Assn       1,096,363  24  + 92,340 = 1,188,703  25

My score was 92,340.  Unless there are other mistakes in the Club
scores, my score matters not to the MWA.......

Here is the email exchange with Dan Henderson received today...

Are there any good books, FAQ's, etc. on contest practice & etiquette

There are some books around, but the best way is to listen and emulate the
technique of those who do it right.

Listen on the air to many of the guys who are commenting about this here.
Find them on the air, work them (if appropriate for the particular contest),
then sit back and listen how it's done.

You won't learn anything by transmitting.

Is that really what you wanted to say? I see the 'please copy' thing as more of 
a style issue than an good operating issue or as N5NJ put it, the 'right' way 
of doing things.

I can certainly see room for a number of styles within the boundaries of the 
best contesting practices. Does saying something like 'please copy' put me into 
a second tier of contesters because of the 0.4 seconds it takes me to say that?

As for the indignant few who can't believe we're discussing this in the first 
place, Mr. Urban's questions prove that there is a need-- maybe it's a 
minority, but it's still a need-- to discuss anything and everything about 
contesting on this forum. As an aside, it has always amused me that there 
always seems to be a undercurrent of resentment every time certain threads get 
started. It seems like such a clich? to say this, but you know what key to hit 
when you see something you don't want to read, don't you?

Fair warning: In the next SS, I will be using my call, W6LX, and very likely I 
will at times slip up and say 'please copy' among various other niceties, 
exclamations, time-wasting utterances, and idiosyncracies. If you'd rather not 
have me waste your precious time and slow down your precious rate, please do 
not work me. I will probably make a total of about 400 contacts, and at 0.4 
seconds per contact, I'll live with the wasted 2 minutes 40 seconds of my life.

    Also was nice to have some time to talk with you and pick your brain on

    antennas.

    Went to FD without any idea what I would be doing. Then, the opportunity

    chance to work alongside Chris and Ralph. Was even starting to pick up
    on some of the code by the end. I came home and pulled out my keyer and
    made the connector to the HF rig and am now ready to make my 1st CW

You probably also say "number" before the contact number, don't you?

"Number" takes about 0.5 seconds at full speed, "please" copy takes
about 1.1 seconds at full speed.

Imagine, 2100 SS phone contacts means 3360 seconds -- almost an
hour of contesting -- just for YOU to say it.  And, your contact draws from
inference how fast he should send his exchange.  He will automatically
move at your rhythm.  This means that he'll slow down to your speed
and send "please copy number" himself.  That means you'll lose 2 hours
in an SS.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Harmonic stubs
Message-ID: <000901c21e4e$6da97660$d5fafea9@paulplay>

A couple of years ago I made 2nd harmonic coaxial shorting stubs for a
DXpedition using a noise bridge and what I think is conventional procedures.

We thought they worked great but when I actually had a chance to test their
performance with a near neighbor, I found they had no effect on the 2nd
harmonic.

Since then I have found a procedure to make effective shorting stubs that do
attenuate the 2nd harmonic (40m, 23 dB, RG8X) and these stubs have been on 2
DXpeditions with good results.

What I am looking for is a multi-multi contest station that presently uses
harmonic shorting stubs that would be willing to try one of my stubs and
compare it's performance to what they are using now.

Please reply to me direct.

Geez, if that's the only mistake I'da made when I started, I
think I'da been doing pretty well! It was probably the first time
a lot of these guys got on HF and they were pretty nervous. 
Especially if people were telling them how dumb they were. I
think we should encourage newbies instead of make fun of them.  I
got off the VE team here in Coos Bay because nobody wants to
learn the code to upgrade anymore.  All they want to do is get a
no-code and quit.  I can't remember the last time I gave a code
test.  Probably when they dumbed the Extra to 5WPM.

EXACTLY!

Here's what our FD gang received from a new contest recruit ...


The opportunity to work next to some of the best operators in our hobby,
and have them take the time to "coach" newcomers as well, was awesome
and always peaks my interest in ham radio. To all of you who put up with
my numerous questions, I am grateful. Having access to all the combined
skill and experience brought to the event by so many, do you blame me?? 

 So not only do we walk away from field day with a great time, but with
better operating skills, old and new friendships. Too bad it's only once
a year!! hi.  

What a setup, great conversation and regardless of where you come from a
common love of the hobby. Thanks for allowing us to share in it all.


Will probably be hearing him joining us in contests in the near future.

Looking to get a radio that is a decent contest rig, but is reasonably

Message-ID: <20020628175806.41525.qmail@web10906.mail.yahoo.com>

Greetings:

This is my first post to the contest reflector in 
13 months...wheretheheckhaveIbeen?

I am in the process of writing the summary article for
QST magazine for the 2002 ARRL DX CW contest.  I am soliciting
your input.  In particular, I would like anecdotal stories
about your operating during the contest, pictures, rate
sheet, etc.  If you think you may have finished in the top 10
in ANY category, I'd particularly like to have your rate 
sheet and station description info for the detailed write-up
that will be posted to the contest section on the ARRL
web site.  If your current station description is accurate
in the N4ZR/PVRC contest station database, let me know.

I am particularly interested in hearing perspective from
casual contesters on their contest experience.  Don't be shy.

Anything you think I ought to know that might be good to
add to the write-up, send it to me!

I know a number of you were sick or taking care of sick
family members that weekend as the flu bug ravaged North
America - if you have an anecdote about that, great.

I may also contact some of you directly by email as well
asking questions.  No guarantee that anything will or will
not be part of the article as editing, of course, is up to
the League for the mag article.  There is much less
constraint on the content for the web site so let's fill
'er up!  

Have a good weekend, everyone.

I take it you are looking for a portable lug along radio, so........
Don't buy one at all.
Borrow one on those few occasions when you might need one, and give the 
loaner a few bucks to cover his outlay.
It is a win-win for both of you.

This should move us past "pse copy",,

Kenwood TS850.

Easy to find used, cheap, works great for contesting, PC control.

Holds most of the world records in Multi-Multi.

Good receiver with the filters, which are also easy to find used.

You may get several different opinions, but there is only one correct 
answer - the kit-built Elecraft K2/100! ;-)  At 5 pounds plus a 
switching PS (another 5 or less), it is one of the lightest and smallest 
you can carry. It way outperforms the commercially-built micro-rigs and 
even beats contesting's most lauded "big" rigs. The rx is terrific in 
pileups and beats the 1000MP even at home. They are hard to find used as 
the 100w version just came out at Dayton, but there are some QRP 
versions listed occasionally on the elecraft@qth.net reflector and 
elsewhere. (Be careful buying used kit rigs, though.) The QRP version 
can be upgraded to the /100 model with a reasonably priced "completion 
kit" which is, in fact, the only way K2/100's are built - first the base 
rig, then the amp. If you don't want to build your radio, there are 
excellent builders available for hire. See http://www.elecraft.com.

If the K2/100 is over your budget for a travel radio, just sell your 
current rig and use the K2 at home, too! I have a 930 and an MP and 
prefer the K2 for everything except working through non-contest, 
split-frequency DX pileups.

Elecraft redefines the vendor/customer relationship. Great Website, 
super support group including hundreds of disciples on the reflector, 
sudden response to customer needs, outstanding documentation, 
vendor-encouraged modifications database, ... the works!

I'm not related to anyone at Elecraft but I do know the principals well. 
They are friends and heros. If that disqualifies my comments, see the 
reflector for identical commentary from outside CA.

When things start to sizzle and I go into bare minimum rate I also speed up
my CW speed - this sensing of that time when not only are you loud in a big
footprint area but loud enough to get away with being short and sweet is the
moment I live for - it is like being the first hour at a DXpedition from a
new country and the whole world wants you - you can work them as fast as you
are able to - at this point the ability to know multiple stations calls that
are calling you and tailenders etc is pure unadulterated gravy....this is
the moment I live for each contest!

Am about to go into some cartons here and see if I can find that old article
from Tom Schiller's there - I am sure it was back before we all shortened
our identities....old age setting cannot remember his old call
anymore.....do remember my copy was on yellow paper - a lot of you have
asked about it - should I find it I will try and scan it and
wordprocessorize it (with Tom's permission) for the contest community to
enjoy....funny how being so long ago does not change the basics - gee mebbe
running people does not necessarily take a Gold Card and a winning Lotto
ticket!

Back to lookin'

Zack, INRAD recommended 2 400 hz filters for cw, so that
is what I used with mine. Wish I had it back! For ssb I just
used the standard 2.7 khz filters. Others may have some
suggestions for ssb. I just felt the selectivity was good enough.
My station is defintly low profile (tribander 40ft and wires) so
others may have different thoughts on the use of ssb filters.

Yeah! For performance per pouind or per cubic foot, the Elecraft
K2 os far ahead of the crowd and it's made in USA. Add the
100W amp to the basic rig and you have a flyaway package
under 10 pounds including switching power supply.

The only downside, far as I know, is that it's menu driven and
not very intuitive. BUT I'm a slow learner and was able to
get my basic, 5 watt K2 to jump through hoops within an hour.

The rig comes as a kit. If you're not inclined or not able to
build it, a lot of folks would do the building for you.

It's worth a look!

Thanks to all who answered - Avvid radio seems to  be
the most recommended but there were two others as well.
I'll call all of them.

==========================>
Alkalinity from the older concrete leaches out into the yard.

You do not notice this at first. It takes a while for the leaching to have 
an adverse affect on the surrounding plants that might need a more acid 
soil condition.

Apply acidifier to the surrounding soil.
Same thing happens down here in the Southern USA to azaleas planted too 
close to concrete foundations of houses.

The list is free to be surprised at this being one of my few sincere posts 
with a content of substance.
File away if you wish to preserve same.
