Well the Vanity call came in, a few days late for the CW Sweeps, but in
plenty of time for the SSB Sweeps. Look for KILO TWO NORTHERN NEW YORK
in the contest next weekend !!
For those of you who have not updated your logging software, please DO
it before the contest, I have been told by a few ops that when they
logged us last weekend, their software rejected, and even CRASHED a few
of the programs.
You need to ADD the NNY SECTION !!!!

Re: 40 meters in the SS. I had an all-time "personal best" CW SS hour from
0309-0408Z on 40 meters: 79 Q's. (Remember, I run low power.) I found a
hole up around 7.070 and just kept getting answers to my CQ's; most from the
W2-3-8 "heartland", but an occasional West Coast station, too. Since I kept
trying to find other good run frequencies all weekend, and never came
anywhere near that response rate again, it must have been conditions.
Re: QRP stations in the SS. I, too, was happily suprised by the number of
QRP contacts in this year's SS -- but I found a sizable number of them
calling me off-frequency. Even with tight filters, big off-frequency
signals still usually manage to get through, but off-frequency QRPers, it
seems to me, are operating with two strikes against them.
Re: SS in general. The tone was set for me early. I lucked out finding
VY1JA VERY early -- and a REAL KL7 answered my CQ on the bottom of 20
shortly thereafter; except for Wyoming, section-sweating on Sunday was not
the big problem this year. Getting an "A" precedent early on from KR0Y and
N4ZZ was.
Re: The Rationale Behind My New Call. I agreed with WC4E (who was almost
alone) that a 2x1 call would be a lot more distinctive than a new 1x2 (and,
anyway, someone has to keep the WPX interesting for all you 1x2's). We'll
see -- but KN4T DOES sound kinda neat on CW (and is 33% shorter than AC1O,
too!) BTW: KN4T was my first choice (not #25, as one kind soul sympathized.)

RE: operation near the band edges
Doesn't matter where your VFO is set. What is important is where your RF signal
is. On lower sideband with a 2.4 KHz wide filter the suppressed carrier is
set about
300 Hz above the filter bandpass. This results in a ssb signal that runs
from about
-300 Hz from the carrier (display) frequency to about -2700 Hz from the carrier
frequency. And this is only for components that are 3dB down which is the
way the
filter bandwidth is described (2.4 KHz at the -3 dB points). Depending on the
shape factor of the filter (and your signal strength at the OO) you should
always
be more than 3 KHz above the lower band edge for lsb and more than 3 KHz
below the upper band edge on usb. Probably more than 3 KHz since typical
filters
don't have shape factors that are all that great.
So far it sounds like all of the OO reports were well justified! (Just wish
they
were enough to disqualify my competitors.)
Maybe a refresher course in the FCC rules and SSB theory is indicated.

>From the ARRL Publication "The FCC Rule Book--Guide to the FCC Regulations"
9th edition, p. 9-1 and 9-2.
Q. I am an active HF phone DXer. How close to the band edge can I set my VFO?
A. Many factors are involved. Amateurs commonly consider full-carrier
double-sideband AM signals to be about 6 KHz wide and single-sideband,
suppressed-carrier signals to be about 3 KHz wide. Yes, but those
bandwidths are probably about only 6 dB down, and that isn't what the FCC
worries about. Thus, to determine where you may set your VFO in relation
to the edge of the band or band subband edge for your class of license, you'll
have to figure out where your signal is attenuated 40 dB. Don't just assume
that if your SSB transmitter bandwidth is 3 KHz, then just add a few hundred
Hz to be safe. That may be fine, if the shape of the band-limiting filter is
sharp enough to attenuate the signal from -6 to -40 dB. If you're going to
operate as near as possible to a band edge, then do so after carefully reviewing
your equipment specifications if they include such information. Another
alternative
is to carefully measure the attenuation if you have access to top-notch lab
equipment. If you can't do either, then allow a margin of safety for possible
inaccuracy of your frequency readout. ****(Here I disagree--you need to add TWO
margins of safety, one for the inability to accurately characterize your
sideband
signal at the -40 dB point and a second one for the VFO inaccuracies.)
Remember, your carrier and all of your sidebands must be confined within
the amateur bands and subbands as appicable.

Good advice.....
I find that in the SS that you often can hold one caller and work another by
telling (example) K2V stand by and the work K1XXX then work K2V. Now K2V
will be in the clear and you get the call without a repeat. I tried to keep
three in line but found this to run off other callers that are competitive.
The better approach is to have the call or partial and then follow Frank's
advice on
working K1XXX, K2V, and then call WA8ZZZ. Beyond three at once also has
been proven to be ineffective.
Another tip to not lose stations or confuse them as to when to call is to
finish the contact with QSL K4JRB, contest. ZL1MQ used this well years ago
and it sure saves on words... I feel that QRZ and CQ are overused on SSB..
Why say CQ SS K4JRB every time when the repeat could be K4JRB Contest. I
plug CQ Contest K4JRB into one voice keyer memory, K4JRB Contest into
another. I use the CQ once followed up with K4JRB contest several times
(great for the 10 meter contest at this point of the sunspot cycle.)
Next, learn to tune your ears...first to become the saavy operator Frank
mentions you gotta be able to recognize that one caller is a new mult or a
high point caller (and this caller is not always
the loudest!). Since most of us use computer logging this is the one place
to use a scatch pad to remind yourself of the next call or two. Using
headphones is an absolute necessity. Practice and experience is the only
way gain tunable ears. The only drawback is that you may leave a logger
behind.

Subject: Excellent Adventure at 8P9Z
Message-ID: <01BBCE1B.74A48B00@downing-1.intelenet.net>
Bill, Vic, and John's Excellent Adventure
The Cuba Libre Contest Club heads east. Yep, the Cuba Libre Contesters,
better known as the "usual characters at V31DX" headed off to Barbados
this year for the CQWW SSB test as guests of the 8P9Z group. The trip
was great; here's the saga:
We almost didn't make the trip. Disaster, and I do mean disaster, struck
the evening before our departure from San Diego. On Monday I had all
the gear packed and ready to rendezvous with Bill WA9L and Vic KI6IM
at the airport for an early Tuesday morning departure. The big fire in San
Diego that you might have seen on the news started that afternoon in Vic's
neighborhood. Unable to reach Vic on the phone, my wife and I watched
the news (and the soot that blew over our house) and anxiously waited for
communication from our fellow Cuba Libre Contester. All of the phones
and power were out in Vic's part of town. Cell phone coverage in that
semi-rural section of San Diego was very spotty and overloaded. The fire,
which was to destroy over 100 homes, was really raging. Vic was busy
moving the animals to safety and hosing down his and his neighbor's property.
That evening he got his 440 HT working and contacted me through one of the
local repeaters. He expected to be up all night. Things were touch and go
for the contest - though it hardly seemed like the most important thing. Vic
was successful in keeping the fire from damaging his home - but did spend
all night directing firefighters on the rural roads in his part of town. The
only
communication that reliably worked was his HT and the repeater system - at
least as long as the battery lasted. Score one for ham radio.
Tuesday morning an exhausted Vic, Bill, and I met at the airport. Vic and his
neighbor's homes were OK with just some burned trees and fences. After an
uneventful flight we arrived in Barbados Wednesday afternoon and were
greeted by our agent. Over the years I've learned to hire a local agent to
facilitate
customs clearance of a bunch of radios, amplifiers, and more computers than
passengers! Our local agent, Thomas Harper jr, was accompanied by his dad,
Tom Harper 8P6EB, who was president of the Amateur Radio Society of Barbados.
With Tom jr handling the paperwork and Tom sr explaining to Barbados customs
that all of this equipment was necessary for the "international radio
competition"
we breezed through a friendly but slightly bewildered customs agent. With
rental
jeeps rented and directions cheerfully provided by Tom sr we headed off to
Warleigh Plantation, home of the 8P9Z contest station on the north side of the
island.
The station is wonderful. It's in a guest cottage out in the country with a
clear shot
in almost all directions. There are three towers; one 70 foot with a 3 element
40
meter beam and a 5 element ten meter beam, one 50 foot with a TH-7 and another
50 footer with a TH-6. 80 and 160 have vee beams. We arrived just as Steve
K4FJ
and Jack K3KG completed laying out two 1000 foot Beverage antennas. They had
been in Barbados for a week installing the 10 meter beam, the vee beams,
getting
the station together, and generally decompressing to Caribbean time. We
unpacked and installed our contribution to the effort; five laptop computers
(three
networked with CT), and an FT-1000mp / Alpha 76 to add to the already installed
two
TS850s and amps. A local internet connection allowed us to check our e-mail.
We headed out for a get acquainted dinner at a local restaurant that night. I
think
contesters and fisherman have a great deal in common when it comes to story
telling!
The plantation is managed by Jagan 8P6PW. Without his support and enthusiasm
Jack and Steve would not have been able to assemble the station which is in the
plantation's guest cottage. Thursday evening Jagan and his wife and daughter
treated
us to a wonderful home cooked meal. There was no shortage of Cuba Libres mixed
with the local Mount Gay Rum. (Great booze!). The following morning Jagan
gave
Bill, Vic, and me a terrific tour of the north end of the island that he knows
and loves
so much. We even stopped at the Mount Gay Rum distillery - pictures of the
Cuba
Libre Contesters posing in front of the distillery will, no doubt, find their
way on to a
QSL card in the future.....
On Friday, contest day, we did our ritual hangin' out at the hotel swimming
pool thing.
Relaxed and refreshed we were ready to churn and burn. Vic started on the run
with Jack and Steve chasing multipliers. I looked after the computers and
stuff. Bill
was on the phone with his office sorting out something about a missing T1 line
-
entrepreneurial company presidents never can escape - even on DXpeditions to
contest locations. Jack was the official band change caller. It was clear
that Jack
and Steve had done many contests together - they were almost telepathic about
managing the ten minute rule. They quickly picked up on the vagaries of CT
having
done all of their logging by hand in the past. I think Jack must have reached
100wpm
hunt and peck typing! Concentration is an amazing thing. Jack and Steve really
showed us some real skill in multiplier chasing - they would each map out their
respective bands, noting new mults - on each ten minute cycle each would sweep
their bands - it was magic. At V31DX, our usual contest QTH, we only have a
single
tower with a tribander and single antennas for the other bands. As a result we
never really could pile up the mults but learned to run fast. Vic and I found
ourselves
prime time sprinters on the run station - great fun.
The Beverage receiving antennas for 80 and 160 were wonderful, reducing the
noise
level several S-units and virtually eliminating static crashes. I won't do a
contest on
these bands again without a Beverage :-). Forty was so crowded each evening
that
I found myself all the way down at 7020. It was wall to wall all the way to
7100. In
general we tried to run Europeans on Saturday and W/VE stations on Sunday.
A few observations: Eight-papa-nine-zulu is most definitely easier to say ten
thousand
times than victor-three-one-delta-xray! I was able to end each and every Q
with our
call signaling the pile-up to start. Not one "what's your call?" to slow the
rate. Most of
the US/VE stations got the message and gave full calls - the europeans now seem
to be in love with last/first/middle two letters slowing an already slow
(150/hr) rate with
the need to do a fill for every Q. Full calls always work better - for me at
least. The
recent Master.dta file generated by Jim AD1C from the logs of the Hi-Q contest
stations in recent contests had an amazingly high hit rate. Don't know what
this
means except that their are not enough newcomers to contesting. V31 was in
short
supply during the contest. We worked only one, V31MX, on 15. V31MX is one or
two hams from Texas that have been coming to Ambergris Caye and later Caye
Caulker for the major SSB contests with a pretty minimal station and doing a
fine
job. It's the kind of shack in a suitcase operation that I would like to see
encouraged.
Thanks for keeping V31 active guys.
Magic moments: With five minutes to go in the contest ZD8Z broke through the US
pile-up on 40 to give us a new multiplier - thanks Jim. Having an HS1 call
Saturday
night on 40. On Sunday afternoon on 15 I had probably the best running hour of
contesting I've ever had - with the last 10 rate-o-meter regularly over 400 and
the last
100 Qrate at over 360/hr for most of the hour - conditions were perfect with
just a few
callers with 59 signals and each giving full calls. When someone would give me
a last,
middle, or inside out two letters I about wanted to kill 'em as I watched my
Qrate drop
below 400 as I had to get a fill. Other magic moments: periodically standing
by
for Africa to find a small pile-up of African stations really there. Each day
I could follow
the grey line from the 4X4s and the OD5s across Africa to the Canary Islands.
Not so great moments: When you link three computers together with the CT daisy
chain
serial network and the middle one crashes the network stops. Need I say more?
The
logs got out of sync early and often between the machines. Thank goodness for
Merge.exe. I think some RF was getting into the RS-232 lines providing enough
emf
to look like signaling. We used CT 9.27. Wish Ken would use a real network.
One of
the laptops decided at 2:00 am to roll back an hour because of daylight savings
leaving
the log out of sync by an hour. Fixing that now. The TS850 on 160/80 lost
about 30db
of front end gain - probably because of overloading from adjacent antennas on
other
bands - hint - the in-line RF power meter moved a lot when the 40 meter station
was
modulated! Early Sunday morning is always very slow in these contests - but our
Sunday was extreme - if our log is correct, we worked exactly one station
between
9:00 and 10:00am Zulu Sunday. At least it was a multiplier - a CE on 40.
Gotta admit
I was sawing logs at the time :-).
So how did we do? Until the logs are finally assembled and we find our
missing hour - if it is, indeed, missing - our Multi-Single effort yielded
about
7200 QSOs and 716 multipliers for about 12,000,000 points. Enough to make,
we hope, the top five, and perhaps, top North American. The ZW0F score
was simply amazing - super job guys! Full score will be posted on the 3830
reflector when I piece it together.
On monday morning we bid a fond farewell to our gracious hosts and fellow
contesters at 8P9Z (maybe they'll invite us back...) and headed back to the
states. On the way we stopped in Orlando to see, first hand the OSCAR Phase
3D project. Stan WA4NFY and Lou W5DID (responsible for SAREX) gave us
the official cook's tour. Absolutely, positively impressive. This thing is
the size
of a Buick and it's designed and built by hams in the finest of ham traditions.
This
project has faced more show-stoppers than you or I could imagine and each and
every time they found a way to keep things going. They're now in the final
stages
of assembly with a launch on Ariane 5 scheduled for mid 1997.
Even if you have no interest in satellite operation these guys deserve your
support.
They have accomplished wonders with a tiny budget and have done it on an
international scale with co-operation from hams all over the world. The Phase
3D
project is one of the most effective arguments for retention of our slice of
the VHF/UHF
spectrum. Please join the Cuba Libre Contesters in sending AMSAT a check to
help
finish this thing. Just forego one gadget for the contest shack and send the
money
to AMSAT for P3D - it will go a long ways, it's tax deductible, and it will
make you
feel good too.
A few thoughts on vanity calls: If the worst turns out to be true about all
those
seemingly bogus club calls and they are the precursor to some weird form of
call brokering - the call holders, present and future, shouldn't expect that
they
will stay for very long in my future contest DXpedition contest logs.
And on a happier note, now that I have been assigned W2NA, I can't help but
wonder who the original W2NA was. Was he (probably was a "he") a contester,
an experimenter, a ragchewer? When was he active? I'd really like to know if
there is a legacy with this old, old call.
That's all for now folks,

The calls were put by there old call and in that call area. Also you will
notice a number next to the old call. That is the number of the choice
they receieved. The calls are in the order they were receieved by me.
Also Scott, KA9FOX has all the vanity call info on his home page with a
complete listing if anyone is interested.
I am sorry if this format laps some of the email addresses around. They
are just to long to get all on one line. I did put the new email addresses
people gave me on here so if the mail bounces you will know why.

In Doug's defense, which he really doesn't need, I must admit that I also
find myself getting rid of the guy with the poorest operating style first.
It makes it easier for the rest of the guys who are using "proper"
technique.
I suppose that this might be construed as encouraging poor operating, but
it's tough to ignore a guy who never stops transmitting over other stations
you're trying to copy. For some reason, the lids always have slightly
stronger signals than those who "behave" themselves.

In other words, you encourage his operating style...
