TARA PSK CERTIFICATES..
ny2u@...
Greetings:
There are some of you that have recently asked 'where' or 'why' the certificates for the spring TARA PSK Rumble haven't been sent out as of yet. This is a very good question at that, seeing how the contest ended in April! And, the answer is rather simple, I've taken a vacation. The certificates and hats to those that earned them have been held up because I've taken a few months off from all this stuff this summer. I'm deeply sorry that they are late in getting out, but let me reassure you that "everyone" that is entitled to one--will receive them and hopefully soon! Please understand that many of you have been writing to Ernie Mills, WM2U, with hopes of finding out the answer to this whereabouts of the certificates/hats. Ernie has absolutely NOTHING to do with the certificates or hats being mailed out. In fact, if Ernie was the man handling this, they most likely would have been in the mail within 24 hours after the final deadline. Yes, my buddy Ernie is unbelievably efficient and very well organized. Just the opposite of myself! Please DO NOT hold Ernie responsible for such a long delay with the goodies, it falls clearly on my lap! Please stay tuned and we'll let you know just as soon as they are ready to be mailed. Oh, by the way, if anyone is interested I had a FANTASTIC summer! Thanks For Your Patience! NY2U "Mr.Bill"

success story
andris.brunenieks@...
Hi Folks and Jay, N3DQU
The success story consist of two parts: Part one: I have repairing works in my bathroom, where I have placed my HAM equipment, and I should move out ot there. Additionally we have local YL2 test /part two (CW,SSB,RTTY) in night of 26. august. Me decided go to my summer house out of Riga city, last weekend, and contesting from this place. I put my equipment in bag and went out. Part two: Camed to my summer house at 20.00 local time, drink buttel of bear, and put equipment together. Switch on and tune antenna tuner on 3.5 Mc (contest frequency). I have there inverted vee for 3.5 and 7 Mc with separate cables for each band (I suggest to everobody - put separate cable for each band, dont connect "dipoles" together, later You can tune this antenna for all amatuer bands with good SWR). There was silence on band. Go upper: 14 Mc - nothing interesting, tune 3.5 Mhz part of inverted vee to be ready for 20 meters, go upper - 18 Mc, see something on screen You dont believe - N3DQU calling CQ. I come in stress - does my 3.5 Mc part of inverted vee will be good enough to tune for 18 Mc? Press necessary buttoms and see SWR 1:1 !!!!!!!!! Pressing of other buttoms comes as childrens play. Yes, QSO !!!! As all sucess story's should be with some little sad in it: we negotiate try with Jay do the same on 24 Mc but on this success story ended. When I come back to 18 Mc there was silence. I can write another story about how I came to YL2 summer hamfest some weeks before with some aim - read lecture about PSK31 with demonstration of it, put equipment together, start demontration, find out on screen DL1AYL chatting with somebody of 070, sorry dont remember with whoom, trying tune my TS570G on inverted vee 3.5/7 Mc (another, connected together dipoles, with one cable) and seeing how it is not tooning on 14 Mc. Sorry Erika, You dont get me with callsign YL21HF forever. Later when we put phased dipoles for 20 meters You has disappeared. On sad note, Andris YL800FD / YL2FD

Then when we QSY'd to 12m, I did not even see any static, the band was so dead. Back to 17m and it was done too. So we must have caught the props just right Andris! That was a fb contact! Jay N3DQU.

Team Bravo I've been monitoring that 'other' PSK31 reflector (TARA?) and it sounds to me like N3DQU and company (Alpha team) is just not ruffling enough feathers over there to do the 070 Club justice. So, anyone interested in going head to head with TARA and any other challengers (and do it right) step up to that keyboard and give me your call. 73 de AA8QQ Jay

Rumble Team Basics 101
N3DQU@...
Looks like there are at least three 070 Club members looking for a Rumble
team to hook up with: Brian DA1TJO, Chris KC8LJN and Ernie WM2U. Check out Ernie's website at < http://www.qsl.net/wm2u/ > to see what the new rules are for the team category, but basically you should know that each team can have up to 5 members, so if you are thinking about forming a team you will want to go for the maximum number. Best to spread the members out geographically too. Hey, you don't have to be a big contester to get in on the team action. This is all for funsies with a new wrinkle thrown in! Once you have your team members all lined up and have decided on a "Gaffer" (team leader), decide on a name and send your team roster info to Ernie WM2U at emills@nycap.rr.com and he will post your team up on the Rumble results website. You must register your team with Ernie to officially be in the team category, so don't forget this important step! If you haven't already, you may want to subscribe to the TARA PSK reflector. There has already been quite a bit of good-natured ribbing going on there especially since the 070 ALPHA TEAM made it's debut earlier today, so you won't want to miss out on the verbage leading up to the big event. To sign up for the TARA reflector, send an email to < psk-tara-subscribe@yahoogroups.com > and put the following in the BODY of the message: subscribe psk-tara (your email address without the parenthesis). You can also visit the TARA website at < http://www.n2ty.org/ > where they already have a magic signup box already to go, all you have to do is plug in your email address and push the button....Hope to see some more teams coming on line soon! 73 de Jay N3DQU/070 ALPHA TEAM.
