Lot of good time doing the contest. 10, 40 and 80 meters were dead most of
the time and I had some signals but too low to make anything out of them
plus my antenna is too short for the 80 and 40 meter.

 

By the way a lot of you guys are ?complaining? about a bad habbit in the
contests. I have seen in too, too many times but this will always happen, I
don?t know why.

In RCKRtty and other programs I have used, the decoder in them needs the
?DE? in front of the callsign to work.

When I have a reply to my CQ I see a callsign on a new line but no DE so I
have to get a double click on the callsign. It slows me down a lot more than
extra word or letter in the exchange.  Friends please  use the ?DE? in front
of your callsign

 

I saw  a comma used after a callsign   ?  tf3rb, ? that gave me a problem
too. Don?t use that comma please.

 

Exchange like 599 55 55 is very good but 599-55-55 is bad for my program
because it detects the next number which is in many cases a 73.

 

I like to see the hams do a qsl or a cfm on my exchange. Then I know he got
it correct.

 

 

So 73 73 to you all <CR>

By the way how was I doing giving my exchange to you guys
