Hi John:
I think that Richard, K5NA, gave the talk at Dayton regarding
the fiber-optics links for computer networks. Don't remember
his e-mail address, but I believe he is on the reflector and
will no doubt contact you if he sees your message.

Anyone got one yet? I heard they should be shipping. I was surprised =
at the price. I saw a post a while back about that the FT-1000MP was =
not worth the difference in price compared to the FT-990.
Any comments greatly appreciated.

Message-ID: <199701270433.XAA57030@mule0.mindspring.com>
I have received nearly 40 messages about 160 logs so I will try to answer
with this short message.
1. Please check your logs NOT ONCE BUT 2 or 3 times.. I just told a W8
that one small
mistake in his 1996 log cost 3,700 points. Starting this set of
contests any call logged in error
(mis-typed, not in log, or with wrong location/mult) will be
removed. If your log has too many I will apply penalties!
2. If you are computer logging I will accept the diskette with a
printed summary sheet and dup sheet(s). Unless someone volunteers
to accept E-mail logs I cannot this year. Why? I run 3 small
businesses on my computer and already get 250 to 300 E-mails a day. I don't
have time to print off the summary/dup sheets as i already spend 900
hours per year on the contests.
3. One final note: please don't send me a log that requires my
signature. Send me a SASE
or SAE with 1 IRC to confirm receipt of your logs. I will also
accept E-mail confirms, but give me a few days to reply. My
assistants will put them in a special mailbox and the R denotes I
have answered. IF YOU SEND THE LOGS TO CQ MAGAZINE you will wait at least
one month as the send then to me big box monthly!

Subject: Will you help with E-Mail logs?????
Message-ID: <199701270446.XAA71678@mule0.mindspring.com>
Gang,
I have had many requests for sending e-mail logs for the CQ WW 160 contests.
I was wondering if someone would volunteer to help in this matter. Here is
what I need:
1. Someone who will receive the E-mail logs.
2. Can put the logs on either colorado back up tapes or 3.5 diskette
and send to me
weekly along with a printout of each summary sheet. Also check to
see if a dup sheet is included. I will return the tapes.
If you want to volunteer and have a better idea let me know, too.
Remember my checkers are not hams and I must provide them paper logs. All
E-mail logs are checked by me. I will need to have a comprehensive program
to check every contact and right now I just check dup sheets for not in the
logs or (using fuzzy logic) odd* calls that are put on an exception report.
My XYL won't let me add any more hours to my "volunteer" time.
Stand up and be counted and of course you will be given credit.

Is T8 the only currently "usable" prefix for Belau, or was the KC6VW
station in this weekends 160M test a "remnant" call from TTPI days?
