Q&A: THE PENTIUM FDIV BUG
Q: How many Pentium designers does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: 1.99904274017, but that's close enough for non-technical people.
Q: What do you get when you cross a Pentium PC with a research grant?
A: A mad scientist.
Q: What's another name for the "Intel Inside" sticker they put on
Pentiums?
A: The warning label.
Q: What do you call a series of FDIV instructions on a Pentium?
A: Successive approximations.
Q: Complete the following word analogy: Add is to Subtract as Multiply
is to:
1) Divide
2) ROUND
3) RANDOM
4) On a Pentium, all of the above
A: Number 4.
Q: What algorithm did Intel use in the Pentium's floating point divider?
A: "Life is like a box of chocolates." (Source: F. Gump of Intel)
Q: Why didn't Intel call the Pentium the 586?
A: Because they added 486 and 100 on the first Pentium and got
585.999983605.
Q: According to Intel, the Pentium conforms to the IEEE standards 754

You bet Mike Short calls are a lot faster and of course much easier to say,
which is one of the reason's that Extra's go for the 1 x 2 and 2 x 1
callsigns. And I think that's one of the big reasons that hams with the
short calls are always for "full calls". They/we oughta have a bit more
compassion for calls that are longer. After using WA7EGA in SS one year the
next I insisted on using mine!
> >
> > Thanks - Mike - KE4END :-)
I think Mike that part of the problem is that when a DX station is working a
SSB pileup it appears that he/she sometimes is doing things with two letters
or part of a callsign. And indeed to some extent it is easier to pull out a
couple of letters, but only from a complete call. Its always best to use the
whole callsign. Just because it sounds like partical calls are being used
by the DX, most of the times they are just getting a piece of a longer call.
So complete calls are best.
For example when running a roaring pileup on SSB you might hear >>>
lajds;fjk;asdfjk seven papa november taay xkl;jafj;a;sdfj; six mike
.s.f,am/dfasdf
and from this a DX station would say something like The SEVEN PAPA NOVEMBER
UR 599. Then the KILO ALPHA SEVEN PAPA NANCY (these are fictious calls)
would complete the exchange. Actually the operator is looking for complete
calls and will almost always to the complete ones first.
The big problem comes when a contest is going on or when an operator like
N6KT is at HC8A and is writing down 4 or 5 calls at a time and working them
so quickly that its almost amazing. Then anyone doing part of a call either
gets left out or it slows the rate way way down.
As to the DX nets and all of that I don't have much of an opinion. I don't
spend much time there, but as an old military operator I have always thought
that whatever the net control station does or wants is how it should be
done. However, one does need to identify in accordance with the rules.
Actually though DX is much easier to come by with the Cluster spotting
systems than any DX net. In fact, I think that the spotting systems have
done more to make DXCC easy than nets by a factor of a 100. (By the way I
run one!).

This remoned me of the old Drake TR-4 transceiver. It used a #47 lamp for
receiver protection. We used 5 TR-4's and a C-Line for 160Mduring the PJ0MM
M/M in 1968. Our antennas were in a relatively confined space by modern
standards. Jim's note reminded me of how brightly and how often they
glowed! But we didn't have any rig problems either.

I agree with the above, but with one exception. Very often, in LARGE pileups,
the DX station is only getting fragments of callsigns. Listening for a minute
or two will verify this. (Is the station coming back to KILO ECHO FOUR
ECHO NORWAY DENMARK or "The station ending in NORWAY DENMARK?") In the latter
case, I find the "last two" technique works VERY WELL in breaking pileups
that I can't otherwise get through. If the DX station is getting full
callsigns, I don't do this.
It is usually unnecessary on CW (my primary mode). This fits in VERY WELL
with my primary philosophy in breaking pileups:
GIVE 'EM WHAT THEY WANT.

But, I can scream into a pileup my last two and, every ten minutes, give
my full call. I can also give my full call when I work the guy or give
up in disgust. I rarely use the last-two technique, but it works on
occassion. I stress that I only find it useful when the DX operator is
only getting partial callsigns anyway.
Also, in the typical exchange, the S&P station may not be legal anyway.
RUN: TU EA8EA
S&P: KD4D
RUN: KD4D 5nn 33
S&P: 5nn 5
RUN: TU EA8EA
Using a known call for NO GOOD REASON. I didn't ID on my last transmission.

Rather than mess with FIX_MINE, if there is a QSO that I need to get rid
of after it's in the log (like I inadvertently hit <Enter>), I normally
overtype it with the callsign right above it (assuming on the same band),
thus turning the QSO into a zero-point DUPE.

Gerry, I can't access att.com directly from mci.com, plus I thought others
might be interested in this as well.
You're right, the 8-pin DIN plug that Kenwood uses for transverter connect
on the TS-830, TS-930 and TS-940 is a non-standard plug, with different
indexing and pin diameter.
You want Kenwood part number E07-0851-05. I bought three (one to use, two
to lose) from Robert Hall, a local Kenwood repair facility, for $6.30 each.
He says he sees broken jacks all the time on the radios from people forcing
the wrong connector. You might try the nearest Kenwood repair facility before
trying their parts subcontractor, whom I have found to be difficult to
reach by phone.
Note that the numbering of the pins is not the same as for a standard 8-pin
DIN connector, as pin 8 is on the outer ring rather than in the center. The
schematic in the manual is correct, as far as I know.

The subject of band filters reminded me of a very fine experience we had
at HC8A with both ICE and Dunestar.
When we got there we discovered we had left almost all band filters behind,
as it was unusual to be doing a M/S there. The phone service from the island
is quite limited, but you can get ATT Direct after dialing 10-20 times (just
like a big pileup).
We called both Dunestar and ICE, and asked to order for overnight DHL
delivery to Quito so Pedro, HC1OT could bring the filters when he came to
HC8 to operate with us. Talked to Ron at 503-397-2918 at Dunestar and
Mark @ 800-423-2666 at ICE. Both agreed to determine shipping possibilities
and FAX us back, and were ready to accept order without any problems,
although we were getting in at the very end of the CQWW line when inventories
were mostly exhausted.
As it happened, through no fault of theirs, Dunestar wasn't able to get
confirmation from DHL, but very responsibly FAXed us back (not easy, as the
pileup works both ways!) for a decision. Their DHL office could only
guarantee 4-day delivery unless we could pay for a courier, but they gave
it all they had and were ready to build and ship.
ICE had a more responsive DHL office, and even called Pedro in Quito to be
sure he got the filters, which he brought with him. Sure enough, we smoked
the only one for which we had a spare (WATCH THOSE BAD CONNECTORS ON YOUR
JUMPER CABLES!). It sure was great service, and all the rest gave no problem.
I'm sure the one problem was ours, not ICE's.
We had cobbled up some coax stubs, which didn't work nearly as well. We also
found one cable junction outside which made noise until tightened with
pliers. The rest is history, and we are indebted to both outfits.
Thanks for great service to both outfits (BTW, it takes a local to handle
customs without a painful delay). I'd deal with either any day.
As a matter of interest, we got the phone numbers by getting on 20m in a
panic, and got all kinds of feedback from, among others, Jim at ZD8Z about
the relative merits of both makes of filter (and we had both at EA9UK last
year, I seem to remember).
Both ICE and Dunestar earned their 5-star ratings.

Subject: some EU cqww cw scores
Message-ID: <199412031453.PAA04318@box.eunet.be>
Here are some EU CQWW CW scores I gathered in the EU score net we tried out
right after the contest. I was pretty tired, so mistakes might have slipped
in, sri!
For some remarks on the EU score net, pse see below!

S58A 1220 35 98 .286 (80M)
HG0D 420 30 109 ? (10M)
Remarks on the EU score net:
The contest(s) end between 00:00 and 02:00 EU local time. This is pretty
late to spend another hour or more gathering scores. I think most people
want to start cleaning up the mess a bit, take a drink with the other ops,
and then disappear in bed. Maybe we should find another solution, like doing
it the next day around 19:00z on 80m. Of course this takes the thrill away
of knowing right after the contest, with the adreline still flowing, how
well you did... The advantage would be that we have a bit more time to
discuss propagation and do a more detailed breakdown etc...
Europeans, any suggestions? Remember, we have the 10m arrl coming up next
weekend. Might try it out again then. Pse let me know.
