There was much speculation as to what caused AB5LX's parents to stop his
contesting activities. His parent responded to my request for information,
but I only read about half the response before AOL dropped me
and the EMail disappeared. What I did read indicated that the crux of the
problem
was a frequency fight just above 14150 during the RAS contest. They were
concerned with respect for Jason's elders. Comment from another source
seems to indicate that his parents are reconsidering.
The fact that a frequency fight almost resulted in the loss of a budding
contester
provides food for thought!

Hello
I will be visiting Japan the week Jan 19-Jan 24. At present, my
schedule is totally up in the air (and hastily planned) but it would be fun
to meet up with JA contesters if time and logistics permit. My primary focus
will be work and my hosts (NEC) will certainly receive my main attention but
maybe there will be time available. (?)
The only details I have at this time is I will be at the NEC Fuchu
plant (I don't know where that is) and I will be staying at the Tachikawa
Palace Hotel.

Message-ID: <199701120833.GAA25131@ax.ibase.br>
I have just set up my packet station in order to operate "real" assisted in the
ARRL CW next month. We have a gateway in Rio and I can connect AC4ET dx cluster.
However the computer is close to the shack now (of course) and unfortunately it
is generating a considerable noise on all bands.
Any tips to fix this problem?

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Most every sign-up came with a note saying they would go longer if busy.
Frequencies are +/- QRM & typ. may reach as far as 3-4 KHz from posted freq.
CALLING CQ: A suggestion. If we call CQ WAS or WAS QRP de K6.... etc,
we give those not on QRP-L an indication of what we're doing. FSFD type
calling might be too cryptic for all but ourselves. However 'FS' is fine
when busy. Exchange RST, State/Province/Country, and Name. Power level is
nice to know.
>ALASKA & HAWAII: Jim-AL7FS is back from Hawaii and will activate ALASKA as
soon as KL7Y's 40M beam repairs are complete. Watch for Jim's postings.
Thanks to him for the HI effort.
KB0ROL will also be in HAWAII between Jan. 17-25 and will post his time/freq
info to the group when ready. Don't miss this double QRP HI shot.
Volunteers still needed for: WEST VIRGINIA
Anyone else want to sign-up, e-mail band/freq/time directly to:
congress@magpage.com
Thanks for all the responses/encouragement and suggestions. Lets have a blast!
